Closing the Cancer Divide
Author: Felicia Knaul
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Cancer has become a leading cause of death and disability and a serious yet unforeseen challenge to health systems in low-and middle-income countries. A protracted and polarized cancer transition is under way and fuels a concentration of preventable risk, illness, suffering, impoverishment from ill health, and death among poor populations. Closing this cancer divide is an equity imperative. The world faces a huge, unperceived cost of failure to take action that requires an immediate and large-scale global response. Closing the Cancer Divide presents strategies for innovation in delivery, pricing, procurement, finance, knowledge-building, and leadership that can be scaled up by applying a diagonal approach to health system strengthening. The chapters provide evidence-based recommendations for developing programs, local and global policy-making, and prioritizing research. The cases and frameworks provide a guide for developing responses to the challenge of cancer and other chronic illnesses. The book summarizes results of the Global Task Force on Expanding Access to Cancer Care and Control in Developing Countries, a collaboration among leaders from the global health and cancer care communities worldwide, originally convened by Harvard University. It includes contributions from civil society, global and national policy-makers, patients and practitioners, and academics representing an array of fields.

Trade, Exchange Rate, and Agricultural Pricing Policies in Malaysia
Author: Glenn P. Jenkins
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Malaysia, a country of approximately 16 million people which gained independence in 1957, relied heavily on trade to achieve substantial growth in GNP during the 1960s (6.7 percent per year) and 1970s (10.5 percent per year). In the period 1980-83, however, the rate slipped to 3.1% per year. Malaysia's traditional exports are natural rubber and palm oil, but in the 1970s the country also became an important exporter of crude oil. During the study period (1960-83), government intervention through the taxation of natural rubber and palm oil has made the cultivation of these two products less profitable for farmers while also reducing foreign exchange earnings. In contrast to its policies for natural rubber and palm oil, Malaysia steadily intervened in the price of rice during the study period to improve producer prices. Direct intervention in rice prices has taken the form of a guaranteed minimum price which was raised substantially in the late 1970s. Agricultural pricing policies in Malaysia have been remarkably stable over time. In return, the Malay paddy farmers have faithfully supported the moderate Malay political parties, hence, keeping the pro-development political coalition in power throughout this period.

Bounded Rationality and Industrial Organization
Author: Ran Spiegler
Publisher: OUP USA
ISBN: 0195398718
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
Ît then rigorously analyses each model in the tradition of microeconomic theory, leading to a richer, more realistic picture of consumer behavior. Ran Spiegler analyses phenomena such as exploitative price plans in the credit market, complexity of financial products and other obfuscation practices, consumer antagonism to unexpected price increases, and the role of default options in consumer decision making. Spiegler unifies the relevant literature into three main strands: limited ability to anticipate and control future choices, limited ability to understand complex market environments, and sensitivity to reference points. Although the challenge of enriching the psychology of decision makers in economic models has been at the frontier of theoretical research in the last decade, there has been no graduate-level, theory-oriented textbook to cover developments in the last 10-15 years.
