Handbook of Research on the Global Impact of Media on Migration Issues
In today’s culture, media outlets have as much influence on the general public as ever. Migration is an issue that has sparked commentary throughout the globe, leading to many dissimilar viewpoints. These news systems have the ability to convey mass messages regarding these disputes, which could lead to a wide range of socio-cultural implications depending on the intent and nature of these reports. The Handbook of Research on the Global Impact of Media on Migration Issues provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of media structures and implications of media institutions tackling migration issues and related problems. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as human trafficking, global peace, and modern slavery, this book is ideally designed for reporters, journalists, policymakers, government officials, communication specialists, industry professionals, students, and scholars seeking current research on the modern development of migration.
God's Best Gift, in an Ugly Wrapping
Mr. Okoro has written a work of deep faith. Gods Best Gift in ugly Wrapping is a powerful and yet subtle treatise by a practical Christian. The author brings together practical experiences to bear upon biblical narratives in ways that bring the Christian messages home to the reader. This is a handbook on Christian faith, charity, piety and fortitude, exploring and explicating the mysteries of Gods presence in the life of a Christian, as well as, His disposition towards the exigencies of human existentialism. In the authors view, the faithful must endure the vicissitudes of life in order to attain heaven or the beatific vision, which is the ultimate good or the Summum Bonnum as St. Thomas Aquinas puts it. This is indeed a good read. Professor Chieke Ihejirika, Lincoln University PA, USA.
Democracy, Public Expenditures, and the Poor
Countries vary systematically with respect to the incentives of politicians to provide broad public goods, and to reduce poverty. Even in developing countries that are democracies, politicians often have incentives to divert resources to political rents, and to private transfers that benefit a few citizens at the expense of many. These distortions can be traced to imperfections in political markets, that are greater in some countries than in others. The authors review the theory, and evidence on the impact of incomplete information of voters, the lack of credibility of political promises, and social polarization on political incentives. They argue that the effects of these imperfections are large, but that their implications are insufficiently integrated into the design of policy reforms aimed at improving the provision of public goods, and reducing poverty.
