    Abstract: Batley and Larbi examine how governments of developing countries are organized to deliver public services. The book is based on comparative international studies of four service sectors: Health care, urban water, business promotion and agricultural marketing. Governments everywhere are being driven to adopt an 'indirect' approach - managing, contracting and regulating public agencies or private partners, rather than providing services directly. It questions how governments are responding and whether this approach is appropriate to the capacities of developing countries

    Abstract: Khan presents a theory of financial crises in the age of globalization from an evolutionary perspective and suggests policies that may be necessary for averting or managing new financial crises. Starting with the Asian financial crises, he identifies new types of financial crises that result from a combination of liberalization, weak domestic institutions for economic governance and a chaotic global market system without global governance institutions. Suggested solutions involve building new institutions for global and domestic governance and domestic and international policy reforms

    Abstract: This volume looks at the three dimensions of social exclusion: economic, social and political. Exclusion is analyzed as a new approach to such issues as the 'new' poverty, precariousness, long-term unemployment, social polarization and lack of citizenship. The book shows how relational and distributional aspects of poverty are interlinked

    Abstract: The key arguments and debates about globalization have raised searching questions about the significance of national and regional borders for the competitive strategies of individuals, firms and industries. Global Competitiveness and Innovation seeks to address these issues by exploring four key topics: The status of economic agents in the emerging global economy; the limits of path dependence and the scope of agent action; the relationship between agents' decision-making and their environments; and agents' learning capacities in a world of information and knowledge creation

    Abstract: This book deals with the political philosophy that underpins theories of European integration and develops an understanding of Europeanization based on downloading and up-loading. Downloading is the means by which EU policy is amalgamated with domestic legislation and institutions. Up-loading indicates the use of national governments or sub-national interests in the development of European integration processes. European integration takes place at the supranational level and in general, is distinct from Europeanization. Through a study of financial services regulation these processes are made explicit

    Abstract: The world economy is on the brink of a profound crisis. The threat of global deflation and the emergence of chronic excess global capacity characterizes the contemporary phase of crisis and stagnation. Lucarelli argues that these pathological features of globalization acquire a remorseless logic during the 'mature' stages of monopoly capitalism. He explores the historical origins and theoretical tendencies of this protracted crisis from a Keynes/Kakecki perspective

    Abstract: Should all young adults receive a capital grant? Should all individuals be given a lifetime regular income? Would either form of payment be just or unjust? These questions figure prominently in recent social philosophy and policy discussions on 'stakeholding' and 'basic income'. Both types of proposal have a long, but largely unknown history. This anthology contains a wide variety of historical contributions, some of which are presented in English for the first time, highlighting striking parallels between past and present debates

    Abstract: The "development credibility" of the current trade regime in general, and the WTO in particular, is at stake. The Doha Round aims to reverse the brewing scepticism by providing a reliable engine of trade-led growth and development. The essays in this volume identify the key challenges in this regard, make an assessment of the current situation in agriculture and manufacturing market access and evaluate alternative policy options that will make the goal attainable

    Abstract: Haider A. Khan goes beyond the study of catch-up technology and raises the question of innovation processes that are the key to the future growth and prosperity of the East Asian economies. This is particularly important in the aftermath of the Asian financial crises that have cost these economies much. How can newly industrialized economies achieve cohesive systems of innovation for sustainable growth? The author offers a novel theory of innovation systems with concrete case studies to illustrate its usefulness

    Abstract: Sebastian Dullien gives a novel explanation for unemployment and inflation in the Euro-Zone. He argues that unemployment stems from a lack of co-operation between unions and monetary authorities: In an economy with endogenous money as EMU, wage setters are responsible for price stability while the central bank is responsible for the level of output. Co-operation between both actors is necessary for high employment and low inflation. The current institutional set-up is found to be unable to assure cooperation

    Abstract: Après que la Révolution et les guerres de l'Empire eurent interrompu pendant vingt-cinq ans l'exercice des droits des pêcheurs français à Terre-Neuve, les Français y sont retournés en grand nombre et y ont trouvé une situation différente de celle qu'ils avaient connue jadis. Les habitants de l'île s'étaient établis dans les havres le long du « French Shore », la partie du littoral nord-ouest de l'île sur laquelle ils avaient joui d'un droit qu'ils considéraient comme « exclusif ». Les Français de retour toléreront ces habitants, et durant l'hivernage, période où les conditions du traité d'Utrecht les obligeaient à rentrer en France, ils confieront la garde de leur matériel à ces insulaires, même si, selon eux, ils se trouvaient là illégalement. À partir de cette époque, les récits de voyage et autres évocations de la vie à Terre-Neuve se font nombreux. Ils traitent en particulier de l'évolution de Terre-Neuve dans le cadre légal engendré par le nouveau parlement institué en 1832. Peu à peu, cette situation va amener la France et la Grande-Bretagne à entamer des négociations diplomatiques. L'anthologie composée par Ronald Rompkey restitue une Terre-Neuve construite au fil des années dans les écrits français, fruit des souvenirs d'innombrables voyageurs – officiers de marine, diplomates, scientifiques, journalistes et autres visiteurs – qui ont interprété la région et son peuple au profit du public français

    Abstract: La notion de stéréotype a encore peu pénétré le domaine des recherches historiques en France, bien qu’elle ait été introduite dans les sciences sociales en 1922 par Walter Lippmann. Étonnante situation quand on pense à l’usage des stéréotypes dans l’histoire humaine, par exemple aux représentations stéréotypées des Autres en général- en commençant par l’histoire ancienne et la représentation des barbares par les Grecs et les Romains -, aux nombreuses constructions intellectuelles, sociales et identitaires réalisées, faites de traits et d’images gravées dans les consciences et répétées sous un grand nombre de formes orales, écrites et imagées. Une approche de ces constructions actives au sein des sociétés et initiatrices de comportements est l’objet de ce livre. Le stéréotype agit comme un outil de régulation dans une société, ayant ce qu’il faut de connu et de stable pour ne pas émouvoir et inquiéter, et de souple pour accueillir la nouveauté et d’adapter. Les stéréotypes interviennent comme des schémas de compréhension pour appréhender le monde, lire les événements, les reconstruire et les rendre intelligibles. Des schémas capables aussi d’évoluer pour répondre aux nécessités nouvelles de comprendre. L’inhabituel, l’extraordinaire suscitent un effort d’adaptation des réseaux d’intelligibilité, le vide étant ici insupportable. La stéréotypie affecte ainsi durablement la vie des sociétés sur plusieurs niveaux : elle crée des stéréotypes sociaux, construit des catégories, conçoit des modèles (ou des anti-modèles) pour susciter des comportements et des modes de pensée, travail auquel les élites prennent une part active ; elle trace des images fortement dessinées (parce que répétées) des différents éléments qui constituent l’outillage intellectuel des peuples ; elle établit les représentations de la différence, en façonnant des clichés identitaires. La construction des stéréotypes intéresse donc les historiens. Ce sont des outils pour construire du sens, pour classer, organiser, une manière, comme le conseillait Buffon, d’accumuler des faits pour avoir des idées. Une manière aussi de figer les représentations sur l’Autre, le Différent, ce grand acteur de l’histoire.

    Abstract: Trop souvent encore les rapports de sexe sont considérés comme un sous-champ particulier de la sociologie alors qu ils traversent l'ensemble de la discipline puisqu'ils interviennent dans tous les domaines de la société. Afin de l établir, il ne suffit plus de s'en tenir à la notion de rapports sociaux de sexe qui, le plus généralement, est utilisée pour faire apparaître l'asymétrie entre les sexes à l'égard du travail, incluant le travail domestique. Le débat autour de la parité politique, dont la France n'a pas le monopole, a imposé la réflexion sur les rapports politiques de sexe. Cette réflexion ne peut être déliée de la prise en considération de la révolution qui s'est produite dans les rapports entre les sexes depuis une trentaine d'années : dorénavant, avec la reconnaissance par la loi et par la société du droit des femmes à contrôler elles mêmes leur fécondité, elles ne sont plus marquées par les « déterminations de leur sexe », elles intègrent la catégorie de l'« individu abstrait ». Il devient alors visible que le peuple est composé de deux catégories sexuées instituées par l'état civil. Aussi la notion de sexe est-elle plus utile à l'analyse que celle de genre. A partir du moment où il est formellement admis que chaque femme, comme chaque homme, peut prétendre « mon corps m'appartient », les rapports entre les sexes empruntent le registre du différend plutôt que celui de la différence: les femmes ne sont plus victimes, elles sont plaidantes; elles instruisent le procès de la démocratie moderne qui les a tenues à distance du principe « tous les hommes naissent libres et égaux en droits ».

    Abstract: La ségrégation sociale est un fait ancien dans la ville. Bien avant l'avènement de l'époque industrielle, les quartiers urbains pouvaient être plus ou moins marqués par des formes de division sociale. Toutefois, c'est au cours de la période contemporaine que la ségrégation est devenue nettement plus marquée au sein des villes, au point de constituer très progressivement un objet de recherche. Parallèlement, les pouvoirs publics en France ont placé la lutte contre la ségrégation au coeur des politiques publiques ayant pour finalité la régulation des déséquilibres socio-territoriaux marqués dans la ville. L'étude de la ségrégation est donc indissociable de l'analyse de la politique dite de la ville et des politiques locales de l'habitat. Cette exploration des liens tissés entre l'inégale répartition des catégories sociales et celle des caractéristiques du parc de logement, mais aussi la façon dont la question de la ségrégation ou de la mixité sociale est abordée dans la construction des politiques publiques sont explorées à une double échelle. L'ambition de cet ouvrage est en effet de faire le point sur l'état des connaissances de la géographie socio-résidentielle des villes françaises, tout en prenant appui sur des études de cas développées à partir de trois agglomérations situées dans l'Ouest de la France. Il s'agit d'une part de Nantes, capitale régionale des Pays de la Loire (550 000 habi-tants en 1999), d'autre part de deux petites villes moyennes qui avoisinent chacune les 50 000 habitants, à savoir Cholet (sous-préfecture industrielle du Maine-et-Loire) et La Roche-sur-Yon (préfecture de la Vendée à l'économie tertiaire et administrative).

    Abstract: Les historiens de la Révolution française ont travaillé de longue date sur le refus qui s'est exprimé à travers la guerre de Vendée et la chouannerie. La contre-révolution y est indissolublement politique et religieuse et elle a marqué les mémoires jusqu'à nos jours, comme Jean-Clément Martin l'a montré. Mais il y a un autre modèle, à l'autre bout de la France, de refus de la Révolution : un refus strictement et doublement religieux. C'est là la grande originalité, et l'objet de ce livre. Sur

Du point de vue juridique pourtant, quand une femme accouche sous X, elle n'est pas la mère de l'enfant. Si l'accouchement sous X bouleverse nos représentations les plus élémentaires du lien mère-enfant, sa suppression irait ainsi à l'encontre d'une certaine manière de voir l'enfant, comme être à protéger.

    Abstract: Depuis plusieurs décennies maintenant, la conjugaison des logiques de décentralisation et d’intégration communautaire remettent en cause la légitimité d’action du vieil État-nation européen. Les régions bénéficient-elles de cette nouvelle donne politique ? Assiste-ton à un renforcement de la capacité politique régionale ? A partir d’une étude comparative dans deux régions françaises, la Bretagne et le Centre, et deux régions espagnoles, la Galice et La Rioja, Romain Pasquier analyse la variabilité du potentiel mobilisateur des régions en Europe. Il met l’accent sur deux variables clés pour comprendre la structuration d’une capacité politique régionale : l’empreinte des modèles régionaux d’action collective et la prégnance des styles nationaux dans les politiques territoriales en France et en Espagne. A travers l’analyse de la capacité d’action des institutions régionales autour d’une série d’enjeux d’action publique, aussi bien au niveau local qu’au niveau national et européen, l’auteur arrive à la conclusion que certaines régions semblent posséder davantage de prédispositions que d’autres pour s’adapter à la nouvelle gouvernance européenne. Par delà les variations institutionnelles, les régions dans lesquelles se perpétuent ou se développent des formes d’identification collective et des pratiques politiques coopératives sont plus à même de se positionner dans les régulations politiques polycentriques qui s’organisent à l’échelle européenne.

    Abstract: La notion de « militant » fait partie de la vision la plus traditionnelle de l’Église, même si la banalisation du terme est relativement récente et doit beaucoup à l’action catholique telle qu’elle s’est organisée au XXe siècle. Elle acquiert en France une connotation institutionnelle dans l’entre-deux-guerres, sous le pontificat de Pie XI (1922-1939), époque à laquelle s’impose la spécialisation c’est-à-dire, selon l’expression devenue consacrée mais bien antérieure, l’« apostolat du milieu par le milieu ». Cette situation hérite du XIXe siècle, même si les priorités du militantisme catholique évoluent. Le XIXe siècle est celui des « hommes d’œuvres ». La montée de l’anticléricalisme et la séparation placent bientôt la défense religieuse au premier rang des préoccupations de beaucoup de catholiques et cet aspect ressurgit dans les périodes de crise. Pourtant, dès avant la Première Guerre mondiale, et sous l’impulsion de l’ACJF née en 1886, le militantisme des laïcs catholiques, en même temps qu’il assume la défense religieuse, prend une autre dimension et se voue à un travail de formation et d’actions sociales. Aussi, les militants catholiques deviennent-ils des acteurs de la vie sociale, au point qu’ils contribuent à un véritable renouvellement des élites locales. Le recours au témoignage de militants du monde rural et du monde ouvrier appartenant à la deuxième génération de l’action catholique spécialisée – celle qui arrive à l’âge adulte avec la Seconde Guerre mondiale –, confirme cet aspect. Le Grand Ouest français constitue à cet égard un lieu d’observation privilégié du fait de la forte présence du catholicisme, l’existence d’un militantisme actif dans le monde rural et dans le monde ouvrier, d’autant qu’on y découvre les manifestations de nouvelles formes de militantisme.

Cependant, ils jouent souvent un rôle majeur dans l'architecture du récit, sans qu'il nous vienne à l'idée d'en mettre en lumière la nature et la permanence.

    Abstract: L’image de l’enseignant d’école primaire faisant tout seul la classe à ses élèves semble avoir vécu. La présence d’intervenants extérieurs (animateurs sportifs ou culturels, emplois jeunes, parents d’élèves, etc.) et de collègues est désormais fréquente et régulière : cette évolution touche l’enseignement de toutes les disciplines. Comment se traduit ce nouveau fonctionnement dans les apprentissages des élèves et leur représentation des matières scolaires ? La polyvalence de l’en­seignant d’école primaire est-elle toujours d’actualité ? Qu’en pensent les acteurs eux-mêmes, enseignants, intervenants et élèves ? Comment analyser les décalages observés entre les discours et les pratiques ? Peut-on définir les conditions de la réussite d’un tel fonctionnement ? Les enjeux de ces pratiques sont également posés en termes d’intérêt réel pour les élèves. Ces questions sont traitées à partir des données recueillies dans quarante-neuf classes d’école primaire de la région nantaise, auprès des enfants et des adultes concernés

    Abstract: Le libertinage du xviiie siècle, à présent bien connu et objet d’une fascination partagée, possède une face moins visible : son versant féminin, bordé d’ombre. Sans doute les femmes ont-elles été inévitablement intégrées à ce paysage de la galanterie mais c’est plutôt comme silhouettes interchangeables, aux traits confus, qu’elles s’y installent. Le libertin occupe toute la place, bouchant la vue : prédateur à la Valmont ou à la Lovelace, insatiable séducteur à la Casanova, homme « à bonnes fortunes » ou habitué des lieux de plaisir les plus crapuleux, il se décline sous des figures que la littérature a rendues familières. Entre les femmes et le libertinage, l’articulation est plus hésitante et « capricieuse » : il faut étudier les pratiques et les représentations pour faire la part des occultations vertueuses et des fabrications fantasmatiques, afin de restituer à ces femmes des Lumières, qu’elles soient de chair ou de papier, une identité à la fois plus affirmée et moins caricaturale. C’est l’objet de cette réflexion collective qui se penche sur un xviiie siècle élargi – de Saint-Simon au premier romantisme – et tente d’explorer le libertinage « du côté des femmes », à partir de la littérature comme des archives ou de la gravure, pour mieux souligner les enjeux et les périls, mais aussi les séductions de cette érotique nouvelle.

    Abstract: Francis de Pressensé (1855-1914) a fortement marqué l'histoire de la Ligue des Droits de l'Homme qu'il a présidée de 1905 à 1914. Cet intellectuel, érudit et tourmenté, était en 1898 l'éditorialiste principal du grand quotidien conservateur Le Temps. Au lendemain du procès Zola, il s'engage avec passion dans la défense du capitaine Dreyfus. Tournant le dos à son passé, il rejoint alors les rangs du socialisme révolutionnaire. Proche de Jaurès, il sera un des initiateurs de la séparation des Églises et de l'État, puis, dans les années qui précèdent la guerre de 1914, un ardent défenseur de la paix européenne. Accusé par Charles Péguy d'avoir dégradé la mystique (dreyfusarde) en politique (politicienne), il a pourtant mené avec intransigeance le combat pour les Droits de l'homme, entendant faire de la grande ligue qu'il présidait la conscience de la République. L'itinéraire de cette personnalité complexe, fortement marquée par ses origines familiales protestantes, est l'occasion de revisiter l'histoire de la France de la Belle Époque dans ses diverses dimensions politiques, culturelles, sociales et religieuses. À un siècle de distance, on est frappé par la modernité de cet engagement en faveur des Droits de l'homme et de la paix européenne.

Les auteurs de ce livre ont voulu interroger les notions d’« immersion », de « feintise ludique partagée », de « monde possible », en partant de textes appartenant à une période pour lesquels elles n'avaient pas été, a priori, pensées. La réflexion s'efforce d'abord de cerner le propre de la fiction littérai

    Abstract: Première monographie départementale sur ce sujet, le choix du Maine-et-Loire souvent considéré comme « non remarquable » en raison de son calme et de sa modération pouvait paraître risqué. Mais c'est précisément ce caractère ordinaire qui renforce, malgré sa dimension géographique circonscrite, l'intérêt de son étude. Sans excès majeurs, l'épuration y fut plus violente, diffuse, profonde et durable qu'on ne le dit souvent. Au-delà, à la rencontre du local et du national, de la micro et de la

    Abstract: Que font les élèves et les enseignants des collèges et lycées ? L'allongement des études, leur poids croissant dans les trajectoires sociales donnent au travail scolaire une importance considérable dans la vie des jeunes d'aujourd'hui. Le travail enseignant, quant à lui, infléchi dans ses cadres organisationnels sans être radicalement transformé dans ses pratiques, est une réalité complexe déployée sur plusieurs espaces : la classe, l'établissement, l'espace privé. Et pourtant le travail à l'école, en dépit de l'importance de ses enjeux, reste largement opaque et méconnu. C'est à la connaissance de cette forme particulière d'activité que cette étude est consacrée, à partir de deux enquêtes sociologiques. Elle s'efforce de cerner davantage les pratiques réelles que les discours normatifs, de ne pas limiter l'analyse aux seules interactions dans la classe, et d'envisager le travail à l'école de manière globale, comme un ensemble de tâches objectives et d'épreuves subjectives. Il s'agira donc aussi bien de le replacer dans un cadre collectif et organisationnel, que d'effectuer le mouvement inverse, en éclairant les problèmes de l'institution scolaire à partir des difficultés et satisfactions les plus individuelles.En portant un regard croisé sur le travail des élèves et des enseignants, ce livre a l'ambition d'éclairer de manière inédite les accords et tensions qu’ils vivent, jour après jour, dans le quotidien scolaire. Il en appelle ainsi à un dialogue renouvelé entre pédagogie et sociologie.

    Abstract: Le superflu, chose très nécessaire selon Voltaire, est éminemment protéiforme et traverse tous les domaines et toutes les époques de l’activité humaine soumise à la norme et aux échanges. De Shakespeare à Paul Auster, du mélancolique de Burton au dandy, de Keynes au jazz, de Hume à Sherlock Holmes, le superflu a toujours eu un rôle moteur, sinon fondateur dans la redéfinition incessante des champs esthétiques, sociaux, économiques et philosophiques. Ce qui était considéré comme superflu devie

C'est pourquoi nous proposons d'abord au lecteur de parcourir ce que les Anciens nous disent à propos du genre historiographique et d'examiner sous quelles conditions la théorie littéraire et de l'herméneutique peuvent nous aider. De la promesse (discours programmatique ou polémique) au travail d'écriture, ce recu

    Abstract: Le récit de la mort n’est pas tout à fait un récit comme les autres : tout en renvoyant auteur et lecteur à leur propre finitude, il ne peut dire que la mort d’un autre et ne s’écrit qu’à la troisième personne. Mais, comme tout récit, il se prête à des approches narratologiques, stylistiques ou linguistiques. Les analyses que proposent les contributions de ce recueil portent sur des textes historiographiques, au sens large du terme, et s’attachent, entre autres aspects, au statut du narrateur

Dans la vaste province de Bretagne, le livre se « démocratise » en rompant brutalement avec le passé et les premiers journaux départementaux voient le jour. Le régime napoléonien porte un coup d'arrêt à la concurrence débridée de la décennie révolutionnaire et instaure un lourd système de contrôle de l'imprimé, qui va perdurer après la chute de l'Empire.

Qu’il s’essaie dans le genre historique avec la Chronique et aussitôt s’élève le choeur des voix qui lui préfèrent l’ampleur et la portée théologique de la Cité de Dieu ! Mais une telle comparaison, qui ne tient compte ni des enjeux ni du contexte spécifiques de chaque œuvre, est forcément réductrice et conduit inévitablement à des classements arbitraires et spécieux.

En 1802, la paix d’Amiens permet une trêve dans un continent en guerre depuis une décennie ainsi qu’une stabilisation des processus révolutionnaires ou indépendantistes. Entre ces deux dates (le temps d’une génération) des révoltes séculaires se transforment parfois en « rév

Or ses responsabilités ont duré sept mois et dix-sept jours à l'échelon de la France, contre vingt-six années à celui de l'Eure et plus de douze sur le plan international. L'action de Pierre Mendès France s'est donc bien exercée, avant tout, dans l'Eure, comme maire de Louviers

Pourtant, quand les dieux se retirent et que le monde se réduit à sa dimension immanente, Judith se retrouve en étrange situation

    Abstract: Comment une ville s’empare des éléments de son quotidien et de son passé pour inventer sa propre légende, ses mythes protecteurs, ses rêves et ses dieux… De Dunkerque à Londres, de New York à Coblence, de Saint-Malo à Paris, à partir d’exemples géographiquement très divers et choisis sur une longue durée, les auteurs de cet ouvrage ont tenté de comprendre les conditions dans lesquelles une communauté donnée s’approprie un personnage, historique ou non, un événement né de la ville, afin de construire les symboles qui éclaireront son devenir et dépasseront les tragédies humaines. C’est dans le cadre des événements culturels qui ont ponctué le Tricentenaire de la mort de Jean Bart en 2002 que la Ville de Dunkerque et la Communauté Urbaine, en partenariat avec l’Université du Littoral Côte d’Opale, ont organisé les Rencontres Mythologies Urbaines. Faisant suite à la parution des actes du colloque Jean Bart et son Temps - autre rendez-vous prestigieux de cette année du Tricentenaire - voici donc la somme des interventions de ces Rencontres réunies dans le présent ouvrage, exemplaire d’une collaboration universitaire à l’échelle de l’Hexagone puisque ce sont les Presses Universitaires de Rennes qui en ont assuré l’édition.

    Abstract: La France est le seul pays d’Europe où l’État et les Églises sont le plus strictement séparés depuis la loi de 1905. Si on fait de cette loi la lointaine conséquence des rapports tumultueux entre l’Église catholique et la Révolution française, on oublie trop que, dès la seconde moitié du xviiie siècle, la France fut le pays où l’influence du clergé sur la population s’effrita, diminua et parfois s’évanouit. Cela tint au mouvement de la société qui conduisit une partie de la bourgeoisie à refuser la place seconde que lui fixait l’Église dans le corps social, aux frictions entre le clergé et les masses paysannes dans certaines régions, au discrédit de l’Église, effet de sa lutte interne entre jansénistes et anti-jansénistes menée sous l’œil goguenard des philosophes. Sur tous les fronts de combat un personnage nouveau entra en scène, qui concurrença le prêtre dans son rôle de guide des consciences : l’avocat. Les luttes politiques de la fin de l’Ancien Régime firent de lui le porte-parole des mécontents, traduisant leurs griefs et leurs revendications en termes politiques. À la veille de la Révolution, la croyance religieuse commençait à se transformer en opinion privée. Dans les autres pays de l’Europe catholique, on assista à un processus inverse. Le choix obligé fait par les souverains absolutistes éclairés de transformer le fonctionnement de l’État mais sans envisager jamais de toucher à l’ordre social, leur incapacité à améliorer les conditions de vie du plus grand nombre tout en agressant leurs croyances et leurs pratiques, entraîna la constitution d’un front du refus unissant les groupes sociaux les plus divers et aux intérêts matériels souvent antagonistes. Le clergé en fut l’organisateur et porte-parole naturel et renforça son magistère spirituel. L’Absolutisme éclairé fut un échec. C’est sur ce même front du refus que devait se construire la Contre Révolution après 1789. Philippe Goujard est professeur d’Histoire moderne à l’université de Rouen où il enseigne depuis 1977.

It combines philosophical, historical, methodological and economic issues of Smith's legacy, uncovering original interpretations of what Smith really said. It is an important contribution for those interested in Adam Smith as it proposes a different reading of his works by investigating the classical sources of his moral thought and the influences of his own time

    Abstract: Since the publication of the second edition of The Credit Risk of Complex Derivatives in 1997, the world of derivatives has gone through a period of dramatic change - in the external operating environment, product and market characteristic and risk management techniques. In the light of these changes, the text has been substantially reorganized, updated and expanded. Several new chapters have been added including: * Derivative losses * Risk governance and risk management efforts * Regulatory initiatives and advances * Credit risk portfolio models Aimed at clients, intermediaries and regulators, this edition will be focused clearly on risk education, risk management and risk disclosure in order to make participation in derivatives more secure, transparent, efficient and beneficial.

    Abstract: The last two and a half decades witnessed China's epoch-making economic growth and great social changes, which indicates the commence of China's national rejuvenation after a near two centuries-long stagnant or backward period. In exploring the causal dynamics of China's rejuvenation, Huang's book examines the internal and external elements from various sides, in both the comprehensive way and the separate way, thus providing a convincible explanation about the driving force of China's marvellous development

    Abstract: The HIV/AIDS pandemic striking South Africa is of historic proportions. More people are living with AIDS in South Africa than in any other country in the world. Just in the past decade, the life expectancy in South Africa has dropped from 67 to 43 years. The social and economic impact of this disease is hard to overstate. However, what is striking is the paucity of thoughtful, reflective scholarship and writing on the subject. AIDS and South Africa: The Social Expression of a Pandemic addresses the economic, social and cultural impact of HIV/AIDS as it relates to South African society

    Abstract: Drawing upon both conceptual and empirical evidence, this volume argues the case for the centrality of social policy in development, focusing particularly on the message that social policy needs to be closely intertwined with economic policy. It is argued that social policy can provide the crucial link between economic development poverty eradication and equity.

    Abstract: Foreign finance for private sector development (PSD) has become popular with the donor community and in multilateral development policy fora, seen as an antidote for recipient economies' aid dependency and a way of accomplishing growth, poverty reduction and empowerment. This book analyzes the pattern of foreign finance for PSD and examines multilateral and bilateral donors' practices in PSD financing, giving special attention to microfinance and microenterprises. It also models and explains private capital flows from developed to developing countries and reverse flows in the form of capital flight

    Abstract: Zagler investigates the interaction between changes in the level of unemployment and changes in the economic rate of growth. It asks, both in theory and in evidence, whether a change in the growth rate of the economy will affect the level of unemployment which the economy experiences and whether a decline in the level of unemployment will foster or deteriorate the growth performance of the economy

    Abstract: The sequel to two in-depth studies of the management of excellent banks written in the 1980s, this new volume addresses the key issues that preoccupy the leadership of today's most admired banking institutions. After reviewing the lessons learned from the previous studies, the author examines best practice in addressing issues such as culture, leadership, risk management, managing size and complexity, and sustaining revenue growth. The book concludes with the views expressed by the interview sample on the future evolution of the banking sector, following by the author's own forecasts based on 20 years of study of the world of financial services

    Abstract: This volume brings together contributions on the major economic policy issues which have opened up as a result of the immanent process of European Union Enlargement. The issues analyzed range from modelling and analyzing the costs and benefits of enlargement, to challenges for macroeconomic policy both at the EU level and in the new member countries to the state of affairs in the new member countries with respect to sectoral policy reforms such as those undertaken in the financial sector and in competition policy, and the impact of enlargement on Europe's trade policy agenda

    Abstract: The analysis in this book reflects various aspects of financial sector transformation in selected Central European countries that are expected to join the EU in 2004. The authors are Central European financial experts who provide, among other things, a detailed overview of the following main topics: Banking Regulation and Supervision; Concentration and Efficiency of the Banking Sectors; Financial (banking) crises in selected Central European countries; and Monetary and Exchange Rate Development. The results of the research done by these authors reflect an interesting fact: that there exist important differences in the financial sector development even in the relatively homogeneous group of selected Central European countries, namely the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary

    Abstract: Growth in the derivatives market has brought with it a greater volume and range of interest rate dependent products. These products have become increasingly innovative and complex to price, requiring sophisticated market models that capture the full dynamics of the yield curve. A study of the evolution of interest rate modelling theory places these models in the correct mathematical context, allowing appreciation of their key assumptions, concepts and implications. The book guides the practitioner through the derivation and implementation of a variety of models that account for the characteristics and irregularities of observed term structures

    Abstract: Gorrod examines the many challenges for the next generation risk management system. Dramatic changes in market conditions, budgetary constraints, the evolving nature of risk within the financial organization, as well as the requirements of increasing regulation in the global market place have resulted in a totally different environment for risk systems. These applications must be functionally richer, have greater performance, provide seamless and improved integration, as well as being quick to deploy and cheaper to deliver and support. Recent advances in technology have provided a number of tools to help the risk technologist. This book summarizes these new trends and also arms the reader with the knowledge, tools and approaches required to survive in this new environment. Covering the requirements of the trader and risk manager, to how to decide whether and how to out-source or develop in-house, this book acts as the handbook for risk technologists to survive these challenges

In their variety they reflect an entire spectrum of coexisting approaches: from orthodox game theory via behavioural game theory, bounded rationality and economic psychology to experimental economics. There are plenty of new models and insights but the book also illustrates the boundaries of what we know today and explains the frontiers of tomorrow. The articles were written in honour of Werner Güth

    Abstract: Amarjit Kaur examines wage labour's role in economic growth and change in Southeast Asia since 1840. Her study focuses on globalization; the international division of labour and how transnational economic processes shaped and continue to shape labour systems. There are five main themes - labour processes, migration and labour systems; labour circulation or mobility; the gendered nature of labour relations; and, class consciousness, worker organization and labour standards. A wide-ranging study which will be of great interest to historians, economists and Asia specialists

    Abstract: This edited volume examines the flaws in the Washington Consensus. The missing link identified is the relationship between market and government. The East Asian Miracle showed that the market and government are complementary, particularly with regard to economic development. However, the nature of this relationship has not been fully clarified. This book assesses development strategies and policy issues in the context of individual and/or regional economy's history and political-economic reality. The relationship may be conditional to these two factors. With these perceptions in mind, the book focuses on the role and significance of government in economic development in pursuit for new development strategies

    Abstract: This book brings together the work of international economist, labour economists and sociologists in a far-reaching study of global production networks and the challenges they pose for developing country workers. A number of both empirical and theoretical questions are addressed and answers are provided by drawing on a variety of examples - from China to Mexico to South Africa to Eastern Europe. The studies show that globalized production creates a new set of challenges to economic development for entrepreneurs, workers, governments and international organizations

    Abstract: This volume contains the correspondence between G.L.S. Shackle and S.F. Frowen from the time Shackle took up his first post-war academic appointment until his death in 1992. The correspondence, partly personal and partly professional, reveals a vital insight into Shackle both as a man and as an outstanding economist. His letters illuminate his thoughts on issues occupying his mind but also show the warmth and tremendous generosity he felt towards his friends. The centenary of Shackle's birth in 2003 seems an appropriate time for the publication of his letters

Although the essays can be read independently, they present complementary perspectives on issues at the cutting edge of recent scholarship on Marx's work. Although all Parts of Capital I are discussed, the book is not intended to be a textbook. It will be read by specialists in the field as well as graduate students in the history of economic thought, political economy and philosophy
