This compilation serves a particularly useful purpose by presenting a full range of fascinating case studies. The editor thus enables each reader to assimilate the particulars in his own parlance, thus avoiding the almost insoluble problem of international corporate governance namely that each country uses the same words, but with utterly different meanings. Obviously, this problem has inhibited constructive conversation. After digesting these case studies, one is encouraged to derive certain generalized conclusions, among which are no matter what the terminology, the integrity of publicly traded securities depends on transparency and enforceable accountability of manager to owner.

HIS CELEBRATED THIRTIETH NOVEL! James Lee Burke returns to the Texas border town of his bestseller Rain Gods, where a serial killer presumed dead is very much alive . . . and where sheriff Hackberry Holland, now a widower, fights for survival—his own, and that of the citizens he’s sworn to protect. When alcoholic ex-boxer Danny Boy Lorca witnesses a man tortured to death in the desert, Hackberry’s investigation leads him to Anton Ling, a mysterious Chinese woman known for sheltering illegals. Ling denies any knowledge of the attack, but something in her aristocratic beauty seduces Hack into overlooking the fact that she is as dangerous as the men she harbors. And when the soulless Preacher Jack Collins reemerges, the cold-blooded killer may prove invaluable to Hackberry. This time, he and the Preacher have a common enemy.
In Black and Green, Kiran Asher provides a powerful framework for reconceptualizing the relationship between neoliberal development and social movements. Moving beyond the notion that development is a hegemonic, homogenizing force that victimizes local communities, Asher argues that development processes and social movements shape each other in uneven and paradoxical ways. She bases her argument on ethnographic analysis of the black social movements that emerged from and interacted with political and economic changes in Colombia’s Pacific lowlands, or Chocó region, in the 1990s. The Pacific region had yet to be overrun by drug traffickers, guerrillas, and paramilitary forces in the early ...
Una excelente novela que combina lo mejor del género de aventuras con una investigación policial y un misterio arqueológico. El brutal asesinato de la periodista Rivka Kleinberg, en la catedral armenia de Jerusalén, produce tal embrollo de pistas que el detective Ben Roi decide acudir a su viejo amigo Yusuf, de la policía israelí. La unión de sus esfuerzos les llevará a indagar en las actividades de un grupo de terroristas cibernéticos y de una red de tratade blancas, así como la reconstrucción del Valle de los Reyes en Luxor, hasta llegar, finalmente, al mítico Laberinto de Osiris. Los dos amigos se enfrentan a un misterio de tres mil años de antigüedad, y con toda seguridad Rivka no será la única víctima... Reseña: «Intrigas que abarcan desde tesoros arqueológicos del antiguo Egipto hasta el actual choque entre religiones. Sussman entreteje lasdiferentes subtramas con una gran destreza, sin olvidar jamás el lado más humano de sus personajes.» Publishers Weekly

This volume provides powerful answers to these pressing questions. 1) It traces the making and contestation o...
