What Next for Sustainable Development?
This book examines the international experience with sustainable development since the concept was brought to world-wide attention in Our Common Future, the 1987 report of the World Commission on Environment and Development. Scholars from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds engage with three critical themes: negotiating environmental limits; equity, environment and development; and transitions and transformations. In light of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals recently adopted by the United Nations General Assembly, they ask what lies ahead for sustainable development.
De Gruyter Handbook of Contemporary Welfare States
Globalisation, regionalisation, new technology, demography, voters’ expectations and re-structuring of societies are expected to influence welfare state development for years to come.

Strategies for Peace 2nd Edition
The authors invited to join me at this chapter of Strategies for Peace, are Bruce Cook, Ernesto Kahan, Ada Aharoni, Susana Roberts, Sara Zamir, Glenn Martin, Nina Meyerhof, Takis Ioannides, George Sklavounos, Bishnu Pathak, Subhash Chandra, Elias Galati, Marita Ragozza and Domen Kocevar.

To create books, written by persons that come from diverse cultures, is the tool to find a way out of this Babel Tower that leads humanity to an enormous hollow of Death and Disappearance.

Such crises may be internal to the firm or a function of the external environment, and several may occur simultaneously; all of them contribute to a context of uncertainty, risk, and change, presenting particular challenges that are unique to family-owned businesses. This volume presents eight in-depth case st...
