＜p＞The Anti-Bubbles is a contrarian framework that challenges the status quo and complacency of Global Markets towards the false belief/misconception that central banks and governments are infallible and in full control. A forward-looking analysis of the opportunities, risks, and unintended consequences associated with testing the limits of monetary policy, testing the limits of credit markets, and testing the limits of fiat currencies. This book presents both sides of the story, including Larry Summer’s “prudent imprudence for fiscal expansion”, George Soros’ “reflexivity theory applied to monetary policy”, Mohamed El-Erian´s “T-juction and diplomatic neutrality”, along the “Lehman Squared” and “Gold´s Perfect Storm” investment theses, and coins innovative ideas such as “anti-bubbles”, “the acronyms”, or “monetary supercycle”, which join a series of innovative concepts such as “The Flattening of the Energy World”, “The Energy Broadband”, or “The Battle for Supply”, from Diego´s first book.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】A Polish Factory A Case Study of Workers' Participation in Decision Making【電子書籍】[ Jiri Kolaja ]

＜p＞Industrial sociologists for many years have been limited almost entirely to studies of Western factories. For the Communist world they have been compelled to advance hypotheses based upon the assumption that political ideology determines the character of management-labor relations. Now for the first time, Mr. Kolaja's pioneering examination of worker participation in the management of a textile factory in Lodz, Poland, provides specific evidence for testing these theories.＜/p＞ ＜p＞For eight weeks in the summer of 1957, while the liberal atmosphere of the "Polish October Revolution" of 1956 still prevailed, Mr. Kolaja observed the behavior of two work groups in the weaving department of the Lodz factory, supplementing these data by interviews and questionnaires. The workers he found for the most part eager to talk-particularly to complain-perhaps finding in this American citizen who spoke Polish with a Czechoslovak accent an outlet for repressed feelings.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In general, Mr. Kolaja found, the weavers were almost untouched by the Communist ideology. The Lodz workers, like their counterparts in the West, worked for the pay envelope, blamed poor output upon technological and managerial deficiencies beyond their control, and sought to relieve the monotony of mass production by activities outside the factory. They responded little to efforts to involve them in the problems of the plant, and they considered the management people to be in a different, and opposed, class.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Unwilling to abandon the doctrine that management-labor conflict does not exist in a Communist society, the Polish government had tried over the years to motivate the workers' participation in operational decisions. The latest of these attempts, coming shortly after the October political change, was the workers' council. This body, superimposed upon the existing management, labor union, and party structures in the Lodz factory, served both to stimulate some interest among a few workers and to complicate the task of the plant director, a forceful man, who had to promote the participation of workers whom he knew were unmoved by the principle of collective ownership. This he did, Mr. Kolaja observed, by reporting decisions to the workers' council as accomplished facts and asking its delegates to communicate them to their fellow laborers.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The workers faced no such dilemma. They tended to accept the workers' council as yet another management organization, particularly after it had agreed to delay sharing the plant's profit. Yet one of them-denoted here as I -5 and surely the "hero" of the book-took his election to the workers' council more seriously and several times at its meetings embarrassed subordinate managers with his forthright statements. He was unable to fluster the plant director, however, who relied upon I-5's regard for his responsibilities to place him in the position of having to justify the profit sharing decision to his fellow weavers. The direction seemed clear by the time of Mr. Kolaja's departure: I-5 had been invited to join the party (no workers in the two groups studied were members), and he was about to be "coopted" by management.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Exploring the American Civil War through 50 Historic Treasures【電子書籍】[ Julie L. Holcomb ]

＜p＞Exploring the American Civil War through 50 Historic Treasures brings together historic objects, documents, artwork, and the natural and built environments to tell the full story of this important event in American history. The American Civil War still matters. It matters because the warーits causes and its consequencesー continue to influence America as a nation. At its core, the Civil War was about slavery. Began as a fight to secure the future of slavery, the Civil War resulted instead in the abolition of slavery. The complex racial issues at its core, however, remain with us today.＜br /＞ Exploring the American Civil War through 50 Historic Treasures begins with the causes of the war, examining objects that tell the story of slavery and its expansion in the nineteenth century. Cultural treasures representing the war years explore the battlefield and the homefront and the men and women caught up in the war as well the ways in which the scale of the war forced technological innovations.＜br /＞ Given the centrality of slavery, race, and emancipation in the story of the Civil War, one section presents objects that detail how free and enslaved blacks transformed the war effort and were in turn transformed by the war. In the final section, the historic treasures trace the ongoing impact of the war, including the dramatic increase in the removal of Confederate monuments in the summer of 2020.＜br /＞ Each object's story is detailed with color photos that draw readers into the story of the American Civil War. Many of these objects appear here in print for the first time.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞In the 1920s, newspapers and real estate developers colluded in a scheme to sell tiny vacation lots to subscribers. A zealous advertising campaign spawned a land-buying frenzy that sprouted dozens of waterfront summer colonies across the country. The resulting legal, social and environmental mayhem caused some of these communities to disappear or be drastically altered in character, while others managed to survive more or less intact.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Drawing on newspaper accounts of the day, this book explores how the scheme eluded accusations of fraud, creating an assembly line for middle class resorts through a lucrative merger of real estate and journalism. Pell Lake, Wisconsin, serves as a case study that yields the best evidence for determining if it was all a scam. Told here for the first time, the story of this unusual alliance and the communities it created offers lessons for today's entrepreneurs, journalists, advertisers, real estate developers, environmentalists and anyone who has ever lived in a resort community.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

On the outside, her life resembled the quintessential modern household full of excitement and abundance.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Values At The Core: How Human Values Contribute To The Rise Of Nations【電子書籍】[ Chin Hwee Tan ]

＜p＞'A thought-provoking book, bringing readers outside their comfort zones. It challenges us to think beyond the typical macro and microeconomic …' ＜a href="www.ft.com/content/e7ae307c-d2fd-4e1d-a66c-1ed67db2bb82"＞[Read Full Review]＜/a＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞A TanFT readers' best 2021 summer books＜/p＞ ＜p＞Throughout the history of mankind, the rise of societies, whether civilizations, nations, or communities, has been a story of human achievement. From the rise of the Akkadian empire in ancient Mesopotamia to the re-emergence of modern China, people constitute the basic denominator upon which societies build their success. The way people around the world think and behave is guided by a complex system of values. These values constitute key factors in the way economies are structured and their potential for further growth. To a large extent, they explain why Japan has gone through multiple lost decades; why Nordic countries accept the highest tax rates in the world, making their societies much more equal; why China has such a large trade surplus with the United States; or why some nations become stuck in a middle-income trap. It is these values, coupled with the right policies, that ultimately determine the destiny of nations.In this book, we explore how the combination of human values and policies affects national economic outcomes. We focus on certain key values conducive to growth: are people of a given nation, on average, hardworking, thrifty? Do they trust each other? Are they risk-takers? The harder people work, the higher the growth potential. Different savings patterns determine, to a large extent, whether a country will grow through investments and exports or consumption, and have generated large global imbalances over time. Trust goes a long way in explaining wealth and income inequalities and the role that governments can play in minimizing those inequalities. Economies with highly risk-averse citizens will stall. We also identify policies which have the greatest impact on economies. Political stability, much more so than any form of governance, is a precondition for growth. Free markets imply a process of creative destruction, free and fair competition, and a level playing field among companies. An educated workforce is a vital enabler of higher productivity and innovation. Corruption can seriously derail growth once it becomes endemic. Sound fiscal and monetary policies stabilize an economy as it goes through cycles and can greatly contribute to a more equal society and a more robust financial sector.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞“The writer cannot be a mere storyteller; he cannot be a mere teacher; he cannot merely X-ray society’s weaknesses, its ills, its perils. He or she must be actively involved in shaping its present and its future.”＜/p＞ ＜p＞ー Ken Saro-Wiwa＜/p＞ ＜p＞There is something to be said for the anatomy of dreams, ideas and spoken thoughts. Abe maintains that he is a product of words and insights from the village to the city, beyond the oceans and into the realms of dreams. He has cherished the freedom to observe and analyse words and actions and the value of human toil as a stepping-stone.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The young Abe was always a practical dreamer, a climber of trees and one not afraid to dive into muddy pools of water after the summer rains. Always fuelled by the intrigue of what lay beyond the hills in what were then his boyish dreams, he was always persuaded that dreams are a factory of realities only when attempted repeatedly. ‘My world was always beautiful,’ he says.＜/p＞ ＜p＞A journey that has led him from the humble village where he discovered the love for music and all things melodic and poetic, Abe’s life has weaved through a maze of interesting milestones from playing multiple instruments, to exploring lessons in leadership, courtesy of the bush. The benefits of self-education and formal international education, have led him to the world of entrepreneurship and all that is possible. His view of life is that unless you are willing to risk something for what you cannot see based on what you have learned, you cannot hope to gain anything. This work explores the nexus between dreams and reality. It is the sum total of our efforts and a reward for never losing sight of the prize. Abe believes that it is wise to respect and learn from the honey bee if honey is to mean anything.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞In 1999, Duke Tate became deathly ill after getting bitten by a Wolf Tick on The Appalachian Trail in Connecticut.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Less was known about Lyme Disease at the time, so his strange symptoms went untreated even though he had all the telltale signs of Lyme.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Social Worker with a 2' by 4' A Drug Court Judge's Life Journey from the Bronx to Dealing with Addiction, Sobriety and Death During The Opiate Epidemic【電子書籍】[ Charles Apotheker ]

＜p＞Born near the Sedgwick projects in the southwest Bronx, the author tells a true story of an ordinary kid from a middle class family, educated in the public schools, a victim of sexual abuse as a young teenager by a prominent doctor, going to college in the morning while driving a mail truck afternoons, evenings and weekends, Basic Training in Fort Polk, LA in the summer of 1969, law school, marriage, moving to the suburbs, children, starting a legal career as an Assistant County Attorney, going to the US Supreme Court, and becoming a judge at 33 years old. "If you told me growing up that one day I would be in a position to help hundreds of addicts in the criminal justice system find recovery and lead normal lives, I would wonder what you were smoking". Letters sent from jail and from grateful Drug Court graduates contrasted with the tragedies which addiction is so aptly capable of, form the outline of this memoir. These letters and stories shed light and information about how drug court works, how difficult recovery is, and how a judge, acting more like a social worker, uses his training and talent to change behavior; sometimes with the help of that figurative 2' by 4'. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have visited many drug courts across the country. Everyone is different. Each one reflects the community it serves, the drugs abused, the availability of treatment providers, and many other individual characteristics that the drug court team need to take into consideration in designing and running a special court of this nature. When I first visited Judge Apotheker's Court, for a graduation ceremony, I could tell that the magic ingredient was his passion, dedication, and sensitivity. Not only was he considerate of the struggles his participants faced but he had surrounded himself with a team of professionals who had created an inspiring program. The Rockland Drug Treatment Court offered meaningful help in an atmosphere of sincere concern while promoting accountability and honesty. Watching Judge Apotheker interact with his participants was eye opening. He seemed to know each one, was familiar with their story, and was able to motivate them to want to do better. Clearly something in his own background prepared him to know the right thing to say to each one. Having now read the story of his experiences, I better understand the influences which made him such an exceptional Drug Court Judge.
