Książka jest zbiorem 20 opracowań dotyczących aktualnej problematyki rozwoju państw i regionów Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej w okresie wdrażania w Unii Europejskiej założeń Strategii Europa 2020. Opracowany zbiór może być ciekawą lekturą dla teoretyków i praktyków zarządzania rozwojem, szczególnie ze względu na jego międzynarodowy i interdyscyplinarny charakter. Autorzy reprezentują zarówno państwa członkowskie UE (Litwa, Łotwa i Polska), jak i spoza tej Wspólnoty (Białoruś, Rosja, Ukraina), dzięki czemu w książce znalazły się różne podejścia, właściwe nie tylko dla nauk ekonomicznych, co pozwoliło przybliżyć ważkie zagadnienia rozwoju z wielu perspektyw (ponadnarodowej, krajowej, regionalnej, mikroekonomicznej).

Cities now seek to attract major sporting events and activities to re-image themselves, and frequently invest in community sports development to fund economic growth and regeneration. Including a range of case-studies from global (the Sydney Olympics) to local (urban school sports), this book looks closely at how sport has been used in contemporary cities across the world, and evaluates policies, strategies and managment. Five key areas are examined: * sport and urban economic regeneration * sports events: bidding * planning and organization * Urban Sports tourism * Sport and urban community development * Urban politics and sports policy. Sport in the City therefore represents an essential resource for urban policy makers and the sports policy community. It will be invaluable reading for sports studies students and urban geographers.
The English East India Company was the mother of the modern multinational. Its trading empire encircled the globe, importing Asian luxuries such as spices, textiles, and teas. But it also conquered much of India with its private army and broke open China's markets with opium. The Company's practices shocked its contemporaries and still reverberate today. The Corporation That Changed the World is the first book to reveal the Company's enduring legacy as a corporation. This expanded edition explores how the four forces of scale, technology, finance, and regulation drove its spectacular rise and fall. For decades, the Company was simply too big to fail, and stock market bubbles, famines, drug-running, and even duels between rival executives are to be found in this new account. For Robins, the Company's story provides vital lessons on both the role of corporations in world history and the steps required to make global business accountable today.
