Latin American Economic Outlook : Transforming the State

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: OECD Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development / Oecd Publishing, PUBLISHER: Organization for Economic Cooperation & Devel, Latin American and Caribbean economies performed relatively robustly in the financial crisis. The authors of this overview urge these states to now focus their attentionon long-term development goals. Latin America must design and implement good public policies to achieve the region's objective of economic growth and structural change that is rapid, sustainable, and inclusive. In particular, governments must reduce income inequalities and public service delivery, as well as promote the diversification of economies, often concentrated on a few primary-product exports. But the real change, according to this volume, will come if Latin American and Caribbean countries carry out meaningful fiscal reforms. The book demonstrates how the increased effectiveness and efficiencies fromimproved fiscal policies could provide the resources needed to address the key challenges of economic development. It also recommends three priority areas --education, infrastructure, and innovation --for investing additional resources with thepotential to raise competitiveness and social inclusion.

Serving the Public Trust: Insights Into Fundraising Research

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Pribbenow, Paul P., PUBLISHER: Jossey-Bass, During the past forty years, fundraising has evolved into a profession that is characterized by increasingly sophisticated methods and purposes, defining much of how philanthropy is practiced in the United States. This evolution of fundraising has resulted in many new issues relating to how institutions, individual citizens, and the government perceive the current practice of philanthropy and where professional fundraisers fit into common life. This issue presents four papers that were originally commissioned for the Think-Tank on Fund-Raising Research and two responses to these papers. The information presented shows the ways in which trust and policy are grounded in our common history and experience and illustrates how working together will forge a stronger link between public trust and policy. This issue offers insightful glimpses into questions society must consider as it seeks a healthier understanding about philanthropy and philanthropic fundraising, seeking to strengthen the role of philanthropy. This is the 26th issue of the quarterly journal "New Directions for Philanthropic Fundraising."

The Politics of Citizenship in Europe

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Howard, Marc Morje, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, In this book, Marc Morje Howard addresses immigrant integration, one of the most critical challenges facing European countries today, the resolution of which will in large part depend on how foreigners can become citizens. Howard's research shows that despite remarkable convergence in their economic, judicial, and social policies, the countries of the European Union still maintain very different definitions of citizenship. Based on an innovative measure of national citizenship policies, the book accounts for both historical variation and contemporary change. Howard's historical explanation highlights the legacies of colonialism and early democratization, which unintentionally created relatively inclusive citizenship regimes. The contemporary analysis explores why some of the more restrictive countries have liberalized in recent decades, whereas others have not. Howard's argument focuses on the politics of citizenship, showing in particular how anti-immigrant public opinion - when activated politically, usually by far right movements or public referenda - can block the liberalizing tendencies of political elites. Overall, the book shows the far-reaching implications of this growing and volatile issue.

Dryden in Revolutionary England

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bywaters, David A., PUBLISHER: University of California Press, In , when he wrote "Absalom and Achitophel," John Dryden was poet laureate and historiographer royal at the court of his patron Charles II, and the acknowledged champion of a successful political cause. Only a few years later, Dryden's conversion to Roman Catholicism, followed by James II's deposition for favoring Catholics, had cost the poet both his honors and his public. In no way, however, did Dryden accept the status of a political has-been. David Bywaters argues convincingly that this post-revolutionary phase of Dryden's career reveals a polemic as consistent as that of earlier periods. Dryden not only lived on in the country that had metaphorically cast him out but also remained a public literary figure, responding in his work to contemporary political changes. Between and he developed a subtle and powerful rhetoric in order to reconstruct his political and literary authority. Discussing both major and less-studied works, "Dryden in Revolutionary England" tells us much about the relation between politics and literature during a crucial, formative moment.

Everyday Thoughts about Nature: A Worldview Investigation of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cobern, William W. / Cobern, W. W., PUBLISHER: Springer, The primary goal of Everday Thoughts about Nature is to understand how typical ninth-grade students and their science teachers think about Nature or the natural world, and how their thoughts are related to science. In pursuing this goal, the book raises a basic question about the purpose of science education for the public. Should science education seek to educate scientific thinkers' in the pattern of science teachers? Or, should science education seek to foster sound science learning within the matrices of various cultural perspectives? By carefully examining the ideas about Nature held by a group of students and their science teachers, Cobern argues that the purpose of science education for the public is to foster sound science learning within the matrices of various cultural perspectives'. Cobern's two books, World View Theory and Science Education Research and now Everyday Thoughts about Nature, provide complementary accounts of theoretical and empirical foundations for worldview theory in science education. While many graduate students and researchers have benefited from his earlier work, many more will continue to benefit from this book.

Co-Creating a Public Philosophy for Future Generations

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kim, Tae-Chang / Dator, James / Dator, James A., PUBLISHER: Praeger, When making decisions, governments can and should strive consciously to balance the demands of the present with the needs of future generations. Various advocates for greater governmental foresight have created new processes or institutions within existing systems of democratic government. These include long-range planning departments, futures commissions, requirements for future-impact statements on proposed legislation, environmental protection agencies, and offices of technology assessment. But, as the contributors to this volume demonstrate, much more remains to be done. Some of the provocative questions posed by this book include: What is a public philosophy oriented to the needs of future generations necessary, and why is it necessary? What are the major examples of actual experiments in future-oriented governance? What were their successes and failures, and the reasons for each? And finally, what are the obstacles to future-oriented governance, and how might they be overcome? The authors of the essays in this volume suggest answers based on their extensive experience in working with governments, trying to help them incorporate techniques of foresight into their institutions and practices.

More Than 100 Signs That Prove... Nobody's "Purrfect"!

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Silicato, Carolyn Stevenson, PUBLISHER: Trafford Publishing, People have no excuse to write using incorrect grammar-especially if their writing will be seen by the public. A little proofreading goes a long way. For Carolyn Stevenson Silicato, a retired elementary school teacher, this carelessness has always been a pet peeve. In fact, it became part of a tradition in the district where she taught: anyone spotting a misspelling in a public place would be sure to tell her about it. Those collected missteps form the genesis for "More than 100 Signs That Prove Nobody's Purrfect." She began taking pictures of misspellings that she saw along the roadways. After she retired from teaching, she carried her camera with her all of time and quickly gathered over one hundred pictures of highway misspellings. She divides them into the types of grammatical mistakes that people frequently make, from "Which Vowel Was That?" to "Wrong Words"-thus inviting readers and students to detect the errors in each of the one hundred signs. Enjoy this completely interactive, learning experience, and remember that nobody's perfect

Political Culture and Secession in Mississippi: Masculinity,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Olsen, Christopher J., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, This groundbreaking study of the politics of secession combines traditional political history with current work in anthropology and gender and ritual studies. Christopher J. Olsen has drawn on local election returns, rural newspapers, manuscripts, and numerous county records to sketch a new picture of the intricate and colorful world of local politics. In particular, he demonstrates how the move toward secession in Mississippi was deeply influenced by the demands of masculinity within the state's antiparty political culture. Face-to-face relationships and personal reputations, organized around neighborhood networks of friends and extended kin, were at the heart of antebellum Mississippi politics. The intimate, public nature of this tradition allowed voters to assess each candidate's individual status and fitness for public leadership. Key virtues were independence and physical courage, as well as reliability and loyalty to the community, and the political culture offered numerous chances to demonstrate all of these (sometimes contradictory) qualities. Like dueling and other male rituals, voting and running for office helped set the boundaries of class and power. They also helped mediate the conflicts between nineteenth-century American egalitarianism, democracy, and geographic mobility, and the South's exaggerated patriarchal hierarchy, sustained by honor and slavery. The political system, however, functioned effectively only as long as it remained a personal exercise between individuals, divorced from the anonymity of institutional parties. This antiparty tradition eliminated the distinction between men as individuals and as public representatives, which caused them to assessand interpret all political events and rhetoric in a personal manner. The election of and success of the Republicans' antisouthern, free soil program, therefore, presented an "insulting" challenge to personal, family, and community honor. As Olsen shows in detail, the sectional controversy engaged men where they measured themselves, in public, with and against their peers, and linked their understanding of masculinity with formal politics, through which the voters actually brought about secession. Political Culture and Secession in Mississippi provides a rich new perspective on the events leading up to the Civil War and will prove an invaluable tool for understanding the central crisis in American politics.
