Why Nations Fail
Author: Daron Acemoglu
Publisher: Currency
ISBN: 0307719227
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 546
Book Description
Brilliant and engagingly written, Why Nations Fail answers the question that has stumped the experts for centuries: Why are some nations rich and others poor, divided by wealth and poverty, health and sickness, food and famine? Is it culture, the weather, geography? Perhaps ignorance of what the right policies are? Simply, no. None of these factors is either definitive or destiny. Otherwise, how to explain why Botswana has become one of the fastest growing countries in the world, while other African nations, such as Zimbabwe, the Congo, and Sierra Leone, are mired in poverty and violence? Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson conclusively show that it is man-made political and economic institutions that underlie economic success (or lack of it). Korea, to take just one of their fascinating examples, is a remarkably homogeneous nation, yet the people of North Korea are among the poorest on earth while their brothers and sisters in South Korea are among the richest. The south forged a society that created incentives, rewarded innovation, and allowed everyone to participate in economic opportunities. The economic success thus spurred was sustained because the government became accountable and responsive to citizens and the great mass of people. Sadly, the people of the north have endured decades of famine, political repression, and very different economic institutions—with no end in sight. The differences between the Koreas is due to the politics that created these completely different institutional trajectories. Based on fifteen years of original research Acemoglu and Robinson marshall extraordinary historical evidence from the Roman Empire, the Mayan city-states, medieval Venice, the Soviet Union, Latin America, England, Europe, the United States, and Africa to build a new theory of political economy with great relevance for the big questions of today, including: - China has built an authoritarian growth machine. Will it continue to grow at such high speed and overwhelm the West? - Are America’s best days behind it? Are we moving from a virtuous circle in which efforts by elites to aggrandize power are resisted to a vicious one that enriches and empowers a small minority? - What is the most effective way to help move billions of people from the rut of poverty to prosperity? More philanthropy from the wealthy nations of the West? Or learning the hard-won lessons of Acemoglu and Robinson’s breakthrough ideas on the interplay between inclusive political and economic institutions? Why Nations Fail will change the way you look at—and understand—the world.

Leading from the Middle
Author: Tammy Stone
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers
ISBN: 1442204664
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Pity the humble academic. Moving from a faculty position to an administrative office frequently entails gaining considerable responsibility-but ambiguous power. The hope of these two authors is that this volume will serve as a reference and a source of support for current associate and assistant deans and as a window into these jobs for faculty who may be considering such a role. Staff positions often come with detailed job descriptions and reporting lines, but the role of associate/assistant deans is often ill-defined and dependent upon the personality of the dean they serve. The authors thus begin their discussion with an examination of the relationship between these two positions, setting the tone for the rest of the book. Stone and Coussons-Read have structured as a series of modules that encompass different situations in which associate/assistant deans may find themselves, and the authors candidly give advice about how to handle the resulting challenges. Case studies illustrate the typical daily work required by this position, with each case followed by suggestions for effective responses. The authors also provide references to sources in which readers can dig more deeply into areas such as conflict management and communication styles.

Consulting Frameworks

Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781541208131
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 46
Book Description
Consulting frameworks are what consultants use to frame a problem as well as its solution. Consulting is a specialty of problem solving, and these frameworks act as shortcuts to problem solving. It doesn't mean that they are exclusive to consulting! anyone can learn them to help improve their problem solving skills! For the ones interested in joining consulting, practicing 1000 cases doesn't help if you don't use a framework consistently. Therefore a better approach for preparation is to understand and memorize the frameworks followed by a few cases only to store the framework in your long-term memory. Many applicants practice cases for months and then are surprised that the cases during the interview are not similar. I don't need to belabor this point too much--you get it. Learn how to think with frameworks rather than brute force your way through an unhealthy amount of cases. If you want practice cases, most if not all consulting firms offer their own cases online and for free. Those are more than enough to practice. The Concise Reads Business Success series is a collection of short reading material that highlights important concepts in business education that every student, business owner, and entrepreneur should know from accounting and incorporating, to building a robust business plan and managing operations. We hope you enjoy Peter's easy to read explanations. The affordable pricing makes this series available to anyone willing to learn and the concise aspect makes it so it does not take more than a single day to learn or a single weekend to master. Good luck and please review the book when you're done so that others could see the value derived from this affordable series. Thank you for your interest and happy concise reading!
