Doing Business 2011

Eighth in a series of annual reports comparing business regulations in 183 economies, Doing Business 2011 measures regulations affecting 10 areas of everyday business activity: starting a business, dealing with construction permits, employing workers, registering property, getting credit, protecting investors, paying taxes, trading across borders, enforcing contracts, and closing a business. The report updates all 10 sets of indicators, ranks countries on their overall ease of doing business and analyzes reforms to business regulation- identifying which countries are improving strengthening their business environment the most and which ones slipped. Doing Business 2011 includes results on the ongoing research in the area of "getting electricity" and illustrates how reforms in business regulations can translate into better outcomes for domestic entrepreneurs and the wider economy. It also focuses on how women in particular are affected by complex business regulations.

LC and AACR 2

The authors provide an organized source of examples of Library of Congress cataloguing practice according to Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, Second Edition (AACR 2) and seek to save the cataloger's time and assist them in maintaining consistency in their catalogs. The examples are arranged by AACR 2 rule numbers. The book includes numerous examples of descriptive cataloguing and of serial cataloguing, while it does not include examples of chapters 7-11 of the rules, which cover motion-pictures and video recordings, graphic materials, machine readable data files, three-dimensional artifacts and microforms, and of rules covering geographic names and references. Throughout the book, few examples are given for rules requiring little or no interpretation and many when individual judgement is required. ISBN 0-8108-1683-0 : $19.50 (For use only in the library).

Art and Activism in the Age of Systemic Crisis

  • Publisher: Routledge

This book examines how renewed forms of artistic activism were developed in the wake of the neoliberal repression since the 1980s. The volume shows the diverse ways in which artists have sought to confront systemic crises around the globe, searching for new and enduring forms of building communities and reimagining the political horizon. The authors engage in a dialogue with these artistic efforts and their histories – in particular the earlier artistic activism that was developed during the civil rights era in the 1960s and 70s – providing valuable historical insight and new conceptual reflection on the future of aesthetic resilience. This book will be of interest to scholars in contemporary art, history of art, film and literary studies, protest movements, and social movements.

DEcolonial Heritage

The volume attempts to triangulate three vibrant discourses of our times: It combines postcolonial and decolonial readings of cultural conflicts with assessments of ecological dimensions of those conflicts, as well as their significance within discourses on natural and cultural world heritage. The examples from four continents range from the medieval Middle East - already shaken by a convergence of ecological and social disaster - to modern imaginary constructions of medieval Vikings, the persistence of Indigenous knowledge in the Arctic, literary poetics of patrimony, and the heritage politics of Mediterranean urban architecture. Authors ask which strategies societies in developing countrie...
