The Effects of contagion during the Global Financial Crisis in Government Regulated And Sponsored Assets in Emerging Markets
The effects of financial contagion during the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) have been extensively studied in the finance literarure. One of the key issues is the devastating effect of the crisis on wealth and asset prices. However, one key difference between this crisis and other crises in the past was the resilience (immunity) or the short term effect of the crisis on emerging markets. Dooley and Hutchison (2009) were the first ones to find evidence in support of the decoupling hypothesis of emerging markets during the early phases of the crisis. Since then the hypothesis have been tested by other researchers (for recent surveys see: Beirne and Gieck, 2014; Koksal and Orhan, 2013).
A History of Colombian Economic Thought
Ever since the quest for independence between 1810 and 1819, economic thought in Colombia has been shaped by policy debates and characterized by a pragmatic and eclectic approach. Economic thought in Colombia can only be revealed through the exploration of economists’ practices and the role of economic arguments within broader public debate. This history of Colombian economic thought provides a detailed account of major issues that have marked the constant feedback between economic ideas and economic practice in Colombia during the 19th and 20th centuries. This volume is thus a history of the interaction between ideas and policy. Those involved in these debates – politicians, public offi...
The Political Economy of Latin American Independence
Although historians usually trace its origins to the Haitian Revolution of the late 18th Century, Latin American political, economic and cultural emancipation is still very much a work in progress. As new national identities were developed, fresh reflection and theorising was needed in order to understand how Latin America related to the wider world. Through a series of case studies on different topics and national experiences, this volume shows how political economy has occupied an important place in discussions about emancipation and independence that occurred in the region. The production of political economic knowledge in the periphery of capitalism can take on many forms: importing idea...

Cellulose Science and Technology
An ideal reference for scientists in natural and synthetic polymer research, this book applies basic biology as well as polymer and sugar chemistry to the study of cellulose, and it provides key requirements for understanding this complex science.
Del vivir-envejecer
La diferencia parece obvia, pero en ocasiones se confunden las experiencias del envejecimiento y de la vejez; y aunque están estrechamente ligadas, comprender por qué no son lo mismo es fundamental para llevar una vida de calidad, independientemente de los años que se tengan. Este libro aborda las comprensiones y representaciones que tienen las mismas personas viejas, desde una perspectiva teórica, interdisciplinaria y fenomenológica, sobre la salud y el cuerpo; las relaciones socia-les y la sexualidad; las expresiones y la incidencia en el contexto del envejecer; los significados respecto de las transformaciones en la idea de sí; el manejo de la economía y el consumo; y alrededor de la vida, la muerte y la trascendencia. En esa construcción de narrativas sobre el envejecer, se resignifican visiones foráneas y estereotipadas del envejecimiento y se proponen nuevas formas de vivir la longevidad.
