AFRICA CAFE

This is the story of a Turkish traveler's solo journey across Africa, from Cape Town in the south to Cairo in the north. In his second book, a follow-up to Nine Gates of Asia, Faruk Budak tells of his eight-month adventure. Sometimes he rides on the back of a pickup truck or travels in a packed, run-down bus, and sometimes he walks along the dusty roads of Africa. Africa Café contains valuable information about each step in this journey that includes visiting the magnificent UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and structures; smelling the magical spice aromas of Zanzibar; eating tropical foods; going on safaris on the plains of Masai Mara and Serengeti National Park; walking the mysterious streets of Lamu, Africa's Kathmandu; contemplating Egypt's pyramids; and shopping in sukhs in Syria and Jordan. Budak experienced the Dark Continent's dark poverty along with its generosity, beauty, and enchantment. He experienced the absurdity of borders on a continent where beauty and ugliness, good and bad coexist. Dreams are the only guide along this breathtaking journey. In Africa, dreams meet reality, earthly travel merges with the spirit's inner journey, and the mission is completed.

Social Determinants of Women's Health in Low and Middle Income Countries

It is well-established that the social determinants of health (SDH) highly influence health outcomes and inequities. This is particularly true in low-and-middle income countries, where women are deprived of their basic rights including access to health services, appropriate nutrition, and education. Socio-cultural practices, such as child marriages, forced marriages, cousin marriages, female genital mutilation, and son-preference, undermine women health and well-being. Additionally, various negative stereotypes, such as pregnancy and childbirth-related taboos, dowry and honor-related violence, restrictions on women’s mobility and social participation are significantly associated with women...

Producer Dynamics

The Census Bureau has recently begun releasing official statistics that measure the movements of firms in and out of business and workers in and out of jobs. The economic analyses in Producer Dynamics exploit this newly available data on establishments, firms, and workers, to address issues in industrial organization, labor, growth, macroeconomics, and international trade. This innovative volume brings together a group of renowned economists to probe topics such as firm dynamics across countries; patterns of employment dynamics; firm dynamics in nonmanufacturing industries such as retail, health services, and agriculture; employer-employee turnover from matched worker/firm data sets; and turnover in international markets. Producer Dynamics will serve as an invaluable reference to economists and policy makers seeking to understand the links between firms and workers, and the sources of economic dynamics, in the age of globalization.

What guidance does academic research really provide to economic policy development? The critical and analytical surveys in this volume investigate links between policies and outcomes by surveying work from broad macroeconomic policies to interventions in microfinance. Asserting that there are no universal correspondences between policies and outcomes, contributors demonstrate instead that only an intense familiarity with the development context and the universe of applicable economic models can generate successful policies. Getting cause-and-effect right is essential for policy design and implementation. With the goal of drawing researchers and policy makers closer, this volume highlights our increasing understanding of ways to combine economic theorizing with careful, thoughtful empirical work. - Presents an accurate, self-contained survey of the current state of the field - Summarizes the most recent discussions, and elucidates new developments - Although original material is also included, the main aim is the provision of comprehensive and accessible surveys

  • Publisher: Routledge

Reconfiguring Stigma in Studies of Sex for Sale is about the production and effects of stigma in sex work or prostitution with contributions from four continents and different disciplines that taken together explore how such stigma is conditioned by differences in time, place, citizenship, gender, sexuality, class and race. Stigma is about relationships between people and also sets an interpretative frame whereby people understand and react to situations and actions, and the book is developed and organized to investigate this from various angles. It presents empirical studies that build on and expand the scholarship on stigma and sex work. This means that it contributes to a more complex und...
