Australia's Money Mandarins: The Reserve Bank and the Politics of Money
ISBN: 9780521689892 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) led a fairly conservative existence until the early 1980s when the economy experienced waves of financial market deregulation and general economic liberalization. This book tells the story of monetary policy and the political role of the Reserve Bank over the past two decades. It reveals how the bank has been used as a "political football," describes conflicts with the government and the Department of Treasury, and how the bank finally adjusted to political turmoil and managed to assert a level of independence in the 1990s.

The Unemployment Crisis in Australia: Which Way Out?
ISBN: 9780521643948 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Since the 1970s the average level of unemployment in Australia has risen each decade. This has imposed huge economic, social and human costs, making unemployment one of the most pressing problems confronting Australia. This book argues that the current approaches of wage cuts and labor market flexibility will not solve the unemployment problem. Rather, the main solution is not wage cuts but job growth. This important book points to a way beyond the current policy malaise and offers detailed solutions to unemployment.

God's Way, Not Politics: Please, Let God Be God!
ISBN: 9781449722784 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 72 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. No subject causes more irritation, frustration, and confusion than issues concerning government. God has timeless truths in the Bible for resolving the conflict between world politics and the righteousness of God's kingdom. Misunderstanding these truths results in the actions of well-meaning Christians being viewed by the world as offensive, unloving, and hypocritical. The result causes major doubts in the credibility of the Church and limits belief in the loving message of the cross. "God's Way, Not Politics" brings a timely revelation to God's people of truth in His Word, which has...

Rethinking Governance
ISBN: 9780521712835 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Several problems plague contemporary thinking about governance. From the multiple definitions that are often vague and confusing, to the assumption that governance strategies, networks and markets represent attempts by weakening states to maintain control. Rethinking Governance questions this view and seeks to clarify how we understand governance. Arguing that it is best understood as 'the strategies used by governments to help govern', the authors counter the view that governments have been decentred. They show that far from receding, states are in fact enhancing their capacity to govern by...

Monitoring and Evaluation in Health and Social Development: Interpretive and Ethnographic Perspectives
ISBN: 9781138844155 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. New approaches are needed to monitor and evaluate health and social development. Existing strategies tend to require expensive, time-consuming analytical procedures. The growing emphasis on results-based programming has resulted in evaluation being conducted in order to demonstrate accountability and success, rather than how change takes place, what works and why. The tendency to monitor and evaluate using log frames and their variants closes policy makers' and practitioners' eyes to the sometimes unanticipated means by which change takes place. Two recent developments hold the...New approaches are needed to monitor and evaluate health and social development. Existing strategies tend to require expensive, time-consuming anal... |

Masters of the Universe, Slaves of the Market
ISBN: 9780674743885 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. This account of the financial crisis of 2008-2009 compares banking systems in the United States and the United Kingdom to those of Canada and Australia and explains why the system imploded in the former but not the latter. Central to this analysis are differences in bankers' beliefs and incentives in different banking markets. A boom mentality and fear of being left behind by competitors drove many U.S. and British bank executives to take extraordinary risks in creating new financial products. Intense market competition, poorly understood trading instruments, and escalating system...
