Economic Liberalism and the Developmental State

Economic Liberalism and the Developmental State
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031080998 | 365 pages | True PDF EPUB | 40.08 MB
This book provides a fresh perspective on the debate over the role of the state in East Asia's development history. Comparing the post-war development policies of Singapore and Hong Kong, it argues that their strong economic performances preceded and persisted despite, not because of, developmental state policies. While both nations are not pure free markets, the Hong Kong economy comes closer to that ideal and exhibited clear advantages over state-driven Singapore, in terms of greater levels of indigenous entrepreneurship, productivity and innovation.
The book highlights the complex ways in which states penetrate markets, which are often neglected in liberal accounts of Hong Kong and Singapore as 'free-market success stories'. At the same time, it also stands as a cautionary tale on the use of non-comprehensive development planning in the twenty-first century, where an unprecedented degree of complexity complicates economic policy and industrial upgrading. The book renews the case for economic liberalism in development policy through a unique Asian cultural lens.

Eco-Types Five Ways of Caring about the Environment
English | 2022 | ISBN: 0691239568 | 281 pages | True PDF EPUB | 21.13 MB
Why acknowledging diverse eco-social relationships can help us overcome the political polarization that undermines our ability to protect the environment
When we picture the ideal environmentalist, we likely have in mind someone who dedicates herself to reducing her own environmental footprint through individual choices about consumption—driving a fuel-efficient car, for example, or eating less meat, or refusing plastic straws. This is a benchmark that many aspire to—and many others reject. In Eco-Types , Emily Huddart Kennedy shows that there is more than one way to care about the environment, outlining a spectrum of eco-social relationships that range from engagement to indifference.

Earth Witch Finding Magic in the Land

Earth Witch Finding Magic in the Land
English | 2022 | ISBN: 1950253317 | 210 pages | True PDF EPUB | 8.31 MB
In Earth Witch: Finding Magic in the Land , animist, witch, and herbalist Britton Boyd invites you to seek out the deep and mysterious connections with the earth that lie at the ancestral roots of witchcraft. She describes the path of the earth witch not as a linear journey of upward growth, but rather as a cyclical one that ebbs and flows with the forces of nature that reflect the world around us—a path utterly different from the spiritual materialism that has crept into the witchcraft often found in today's capitalist culture.
Drawing on her own experience hiking the entirety of the Pacific Crest Trail, a 2660-mile trek that stretches from Mexico to the Canadian border, Boyd reminds readers that witchcraft has always been based in the energy of the land, and that you can find all you need to practice this magic right beneath your feet.
