2001 Index of Economic Freedom
Manufacturer: Heritage Foundation ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0891952527 |
Book Description
The Heritage Foundation and The Wall Street Journal introduce the 2001 Index of Economic Freedom.Now in its seventh edition, the Index measures how well 155 countries score on a list of 50 independent variables divided into 10 broad factors of economic freedom.
The higher the score on a factor, the greater the level of government interference and the less economic freedom a country enjoys. The 50 variables are grouped into the following categories: banking and finance, capital flows and foreign investment, monetary policy, fiscal burden of government, trade policy, wages and prices, government intervention in the economy, property rights, regulation, and black-market activity.
New to the 2001 edition includes a foreward by Robert Bartley, editor of The Wall Street Journal, who offers an overview of this year's economic events and a reflection on the importance of Nobel Prize economist Robert Mundell's work in creating "the current trend toward freer economies around the world." This year's edition also contains a chapter by Mary O'Grady of The Wall Street Journal on how free trade flows improve every participating country's economic well being. In another new chapter, John Hulsman, Gerald P. O'Driscoll, Jr., and Denise H. Froning of The Heritage Foundation explain the central role that a new Free Trade Association can play in achieving free trade and open borders.
A practical reference guide, the Index of Economic Freedom is an indispensable handbook for foreign policy experts, economists, journalists, students, and business executives seeking opportunities in the global economy. It is also an essential guide to economic growth for anyone who wants to understand why some countries prosper and others lag behind.

A Noble Effort that Lays Bare its Assumptions..........2001-02-02
For those that prefer alternative ways of thinking about the world, or have competing models to try, this can set up a good basis for comparison. I use the country scores in this volume to influence my own personal investing strategy.

Negotiating at an Uneven Table: Developing Moral Courage in Resolving Our Conflicts
Phyllis Beck Kritek Manufacturer: Jossey-Bass ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0787959375 |

Substantially revised and expanded, this new edition will help open minds and balance the negotiation process. Throughout the book, Kritek challenges traditional approaches to dealing with inequities at the negotiation table and offers alternatives for reframing the process.Customer Reviews:

Excellent resource for effective conflict negotiation.......2004-10-10
It's all about me.......2004-05-22
Everything in this book seems to be about the author: her opinions; her stories; her realizations; her points of view. In some way, all books are a bit like this, but usually authors learn how to put themselves and their egos in the background, and write about the SUBJECT from their personal point of view. This author doesn't do that... it's about HER, and her struggles with the subject materials.
It's similar to sitting at the very back of a theatre. The folk up front are watching the show, but you are watching the audience watching the show. The back of the theatre, unfortunately, is where Ms. Kritek places us.
I had a strong sense of the author using the book as a venue for complaint, rather than an exploration of the intricate dynamics of negotiation.

The Brenner Debate: Agrarian Class Structure and Economic Development in Pre-industrial Europe (Past and Present Publications)
Manufacturer: Cambridge University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0521349338 |
Book Description
Few historical issues have occasioned such discussion since at least the time of Marx as the transition from feudalism to capitalism in western Europe. The Brenner Debate, which reprints from Past and Present various article in 1976, is a scholarly presentation of a variety of points of view, covering a very wide range in time, place and type of approach. Weighty theoretical responses to Brenner’s first formulation followed from the late Sir Michael Postan, John Hatcher, Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie and Guy Bois; more particular contributions came from Patricia Croot, David Parker, Arnost Klìma and Heide Wunder on England, France, Bohemia and Germany; and reflective pieces from R. H. Hilton and the late J. P. Cooper. Completing the volume, and giving it an overall coherence, are Brenner’s own comprehensive response to those who had taken part in the debate, and also R. H. Hilton’s introduction which aims to bring together the major themes in the collection of essays. The debate has already aroused widespread interest among historians and scholars in allied fields as well as among ordinary readers, and may reasonably be regarded as one of the most important historical debates of recent years.
