Riley C: Why People Love Columbus, Ohio

Why People Love Columbus, Ohio

A Local Guide to History, Growth & Community Life

World Economies

For most of the postwar period South Africa has been the largest economy in Africa, with relatively high levels of industrialization, a modern banking and financial sector and a globally significant mining industry. However, today discussion of its economy is dominated by its widespread poverty, high unemployment and extreme inequality - inequality which still exhibits strong racial lines despite the emergence of a new black elite and middle class. Indeed, amongst the countries with reliable measures, South Africa ranks as the most unequal country in the world. Sam Ashman provides a penetrating and insightful survey of South Africa's postwar economic history, in particular its economic development since 1994, when the African National Congress came to office and universal adult suffrage was finally introduced. The book examines both the legacy of the apartheid era political economy, as well as the impact of financial and trade liberalization since the 1990s, and the privatization and corporate restructuring that have, if anything, deepened the structural economic challenges the country now faces. Key features of the economy are examined in turn, including the continuing importance of mining and the export of primary commodities; the liberalization and financialization of the economy and the deindustrialization arising from that; the dominance of oligopolies in major sectors; and the ongoing crises of poverty, unemployment and rising inequality.

An economic history of postwar South Africa, with particular focus on the modern post-apartheid period.

The South African Economy

Routledge Explorations in Environmental Economics

This book explores the complex relationship between climate change and human behaviour, which is often shaped by cognitive biases, established norms, past experiences, and a tendency toward maintaining the status quo-making meaningful change challenging. It brings together a diverse range of contributions that examine international and industry contexts through the lens of behavioural economics, addressing persistent intention-action gap.The book is divided into three parts. Part I introduces the theoretical foundations and traces the evolution of scientific thought from classical rationality to bounded rationality and ethicality in the context of climate change. It includes a systematic bibliometric mapping of global research trends and examines the crucial role of information flows, media literacy, and disinformation in shaping climate attitudes. Part II focuses on climate change mitigation, presenting empirical studies on energy transitions, fossil fuel "addiction," and circular economy interventions specifically targeting the consumption patterns of adolescents and young adults. Part III addresses spatial and community adaptation, exploring mobility patterns, nature-based solutions in European cities, and the management of private green spaces. It concludes with global perspectives on climate migration narratives and the collective resilience of Small Island Developing States (SIDS).By offering a comprehensive and interdisciplinary look at human behaviour in the face of climate change, the book integrates advanced methods such as discrete choice experiments, social network analysis, and fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) which inspires further research and action in this ever-evolving field. It is essential reading for academics, researchers, students, as well as economists, environmentalists and policymakers concerned with the economic and psychological dimensions of climate-related decision-making.

Overseas Aid 2nd Edition

The first of two volumes written “in and against development” tells the story of how of The Economics of Everything, or Economics Imperialism, became a dominant presence in development economics.
 

Today, economics imperialism sets the agenda in development studies, with the World Bank taking a leading, if contested, role. This volume examines how this happened, charting the evolution from the old or classic development economics through the new, newer and newest development economics. Drawing critically upon the Kuhnian notions of paradigm shifts, corresponding changes are contextualized materially, intellectually and policy-wise. Covering key issues such as famine, the developmental state, and trade and industrial policy, detailed attention is paid to the potential for alternatives for economics and economic policies.

In and against Development: From New to Newest Development Economics

Routledge Studies in Gender and Economics

This book delves into the interrelationship among gender, power, and economic disparity in the Global South through an intersectional lens. It analyses the interplay of diverse forms of oppression, such as class, caste, race, ethnicity, and geography, and their impacts on individual lives and prospects for success. This analysis employs diverse case studies to examine how historical legacies, social and political institutions, and economic mechanisms generate and perpetuate inequality across various domains.Gender, Power, and Economic Inequality in the Global South illustrates how women, particularly from Dalit, black, indigenous, and other marginalized groups, wield power and resist exclusion while challenging patriarchal norms and advocating for equity in politics, the economy, the environment, and the digital realm. It distinctly focusses on the Global South and critically examines global development narratives, prioritizing local knowledge, action, and feminist futures in its endeavours. Further, the book examines the dynamics of power within institutions, informal economy, housing, technology, peacebuilding, and international cooperation. Encompassing a broad spectrum of disciplines, including economics, political science, sociology, law, and environmental studies, the book also examines how global trends, such as the green transition and digital innovation, influence gendered realities.This edited text serves as an invaluable resource for scholars, researchers, practitioners, and advanced students in gender studies, development studies, international relations, and related fields due to its pertinent information and policy recommendations. It urges readers to critically examine conventional notions and consider gender and power in the Global South with greater openness and equity.
