The Bright Jubilees is the book of four different plays. For example, we have Fat Frogs and Juicy Toads. Fat Frog is a metaphor for a wealthy man. And a Juicy Toad is the metaphor for a superrich woman. The Great Crusade is a radical change. An ex-Islamist, a Boko Haram, became a great evangelist, taking the whole America by storm. The next play is A Case to Kill Africans. Here we have a variety of the global conspiracies. And the last play is A Wayo Governor. Wayo means a trickster or a major crook. The imaginary Wayo Governor did all his wayo politics in his wayo Kobokobo land.

Every city, region, and state wants to improve. However, while the field of strategic management exists in business schools to guide firms and organizations, no such analogous field exists for places. Everything in Its Place weaves together theories, empirical evidence, and case studies from a broad spectrum of scholarly disciplines and combines them with insights and experiences garnered from practitioners and policy makers to provide a systematic framework for guiding and informing the strategic management of places.

This innovative volume explores empirical legal issues around the world. While legal studies have traditionally been worked on and of letters and with a normative bent, in recent years quantitative methods have gained traction by offering a brand new perspective of understanding law.

Using original data in a variety of statistical tools (from the most...
