Book Description

International trade is a matter of vital importance for developing countries, since it can stimulate growth and contribute to poverty reduction. Trade is, however, an increasingly complex issue, and policymakers in developing countries will need to understand the many ramifications of multilateral trade agreements if their countries are to benefit from this engine of growth.

Development, Trade, and the WTO summarizes the economics of sound trade policy, explains behind-the-border regulatory issues, and serves as a comprehensive reference on trade-related issues. It also contains two CD-ROM with relevant data and training material.

Policymakers, trade negotiators, indeed any reader interested in international trade will find this book invaluable.

This is not merely a timely publication, it is a very important one. It addresses a vital series of questions through contributors of the highest caliber. Trade in general and the WTO in particular are essential building blocks for a better world. Interdependence, however, can only develop effectively within a rule-based system. That fact is demonstrated in this book.--Peter Sutherland, former Director-General of GATT and the WTO

This handbook is a wonderful resource for anyone and everyone who works on trade policy in developing countries. It covers every aspect of trade affected by multilateral rules. It provides alternative perspectives on controversial issues, allowing readers to make up their own minds. And it does all this in a superbly concise and clear way.--Adrian Wood, Chief Economist, UK Department for International Development

          Book Description

          It has taken China 15 long years of tough negotiations to achieve accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO). By becoming a full member of the WTO, China has in fact made three tiers of commitments. The first tier is the commitment to the objectives of the WTO, such as free trade, most-favoured nations, national treatment and transparency, as expounded in the various documents setting up the organization and its predecessor, the GATT. The second tier is the commitment to the set of rules governing trade for specific sectors, such as agricultural and textile goods, or information technology and telecommunications. This is set out in China's accession protocol. The third tier is the commitment to bilateral agreements which China signed with her major trading partners. Their support is mandatory before China can be admitted to the WTO and therefore she has to satisfy each of them through elaborate bilateral negotiations. This handbook highlights the important commitments that China has made to the international community and analyzes the potential impact of such commitments on China.

          Part I of the book outlines China's commitments to convert her economy from a centrally planned one to a free market one as far as cross-border movement of goods, services and personnel is concerned. It reproduces China's commitments in a tabular format to facilitate reading, and is supplemented with brief references to WTO regulations where appropriate so that readers get to know how China's commitments relate to WTO obligations. Part II examines the impacts of China's WTO membership as a whole and on her specific economic sectors. Part III consists of Tables and Figures selected from a Report compiled by the US General Accounting Office, presenting some of the Office's analysis and findings of China's commitments on WTO accession.

          Appendix 1 lists all the legal instruments pertaining to China's accession to the WTO. Appendix 2 reprints the Protocol of China's Accession. China's schedule of commitments on services, rearranged in a format more comprehensible to the general reader, is included as Appendix 3, so that concerned readers can find out for themselves how their professions may be affected. Appendix 4 reprints the GATS Services Sectoral Classification GNS/W/120 and part of the CPC Provisional version. This appendix is attached to facilitate readers to check whether their specific professions, which are spelt out in 3-6 digit codes, are included in Chinese commitments.

                          I have had the pleasure of working with Tom and Roger a few times. The methods for establishing ownership and accountability are outstanding. This stuff really works folks. I am a witness to the power of what is presented in these books. Whether you are a small company of large corporation - this is worth listening to. Good luck and never stop asking yourself "What Else Can I Do?".

                          4 out of 5 stars Good use of driving time........2006-02-19

                          These tapes are excellent for listening while driving. The book is well done and worth read (or listening). I went back and highlighted the parts in the book that sounded the best. It really worked for me.

                            This book explores what the commercial revolution of the seventeenth century meant to the greatest poet of the era, John Milton, and the broader literary tradition in which he worked. New economic ideas influenced a wide range of Milton's most famous writings as he and other authors engaged with the economic discourse of the age, reimagining ideas about self, community, and empire.

                                5 out of 5 stars Brand Driven.......2004-06-05

                                As director of a nonprofit association that is beginning a strategic planning process, I found Brand Driven a great resource. Its step by step description of the internal process necessary to ensure that organizations integrate the branding process at all organizational levels and the necessary role of leadership in overseeing the process was especially valuable. The chapter specific to nonprofits was an unexpected bonus. I highly recommend this book to organizations seeking to focus their mission and services through the branding process.

                                5 out of 5 stars Great Book.......2004-06-05

                                I have always been a skeptic on spending a lot of money on branding in my industry (wholesale distribution). After reading Brand Driven not only was I convinced that I was wrong but we now have our biggest budget to date specifically for branding. This book opened my eyes on how important branding is and how it differentiates our company from the others. I read a lot of business books and this one has allowed me to put its priciples in action immediately and we are already seeing positive results.

                                5 out of 5 stars Very Good!.......2004-06-03

                                Leadership and branding are both extremely important to our fast growing organization. Brand Driven has helped provide me with a framework for focusing our efforts around our promise to customers and how every employee can keep that promise, ultimately differentiating us in a competitive marketplace.

                                5 out of 5 stars A Unique, Substantive Approach - Not Smoke and Mirrors.......2004-06-02

                                I totally disagree with a recent review about Brand Driven that says, "it has all been said before."

                                As a marketing professional of 20 years, I've read a lot of books on marketing. In this one I found a new, substantive approach to a subject other books approach with only smoke and mirrors. Rather than just expounding upon interesting philosophies, this book gave me actionable processes any company can use.

                                Many people talk about aligning a brand promise with employee actions, company culture, and leadership activities. But these guys have clearly figured out how to actually make that happen. And provide something of unique value - a starting place to help companies achieve those goals.

                                I particularly liked the authors' emphasis on tools that can be used to keep a company focused on a long-term strategy - and employees focused on achieving that strategy.

                                Also, I've never run across their concepts of strategic role or brand principle anywhere else - concepts they back up with specific case studies from the authors' own experience.

                                I recommend this book to anyone who wants to go beyond the idea of "living the brand," and to learn how to actually put it into practice.

                                5 out of 5 stars Finally a "how-to" application for branding.......2004-05-29

                                Reading Brand Driven filled in a big question mark I've always had about improving quality organization-wide. The question of how branding relates to programs such as Six Sigma and ISO.

                                While improving quality using these processes helps the customer experience, how can it be done in a way that differentiates us from competitors? If a competitor puts the same investment into quality that we do, won't we just be creating a very expensive (albeit high quality) commodity?

                                Brand Driven shows how a company can have a unique approach to its products or services that customers will recognize and value. Moreover, it provides a roadmap for how to accomplish this and align company practices to it based on the authors' own experiences.

                                Brand Driven is vsery usefull as a management resource.

                                  Book Description

                                  The public sector is experiencing tremendous pressure for strategic change. Governments in many countries require public sector managers to be more responsive to the public and to deliver more value with constrained budgets. Members of the public also face change, and look to their public sector organisations to provide efficient and high quality service, while adapting their activities in a complex and dynamic world.

                                  Strategy in the Public Sector provides guidance to managers who have responsibility for delivering increased levels of efficiency and innovation and accountability. It shows how strategic changes can be made through realigning and increasing the capacity of the public sector organisation. It shows how managers are now handling strategic changes in the context of public policy, favouring pluralism of service delivery systems and partnership working. Based on the practical experience of managers in local government, central government, health services and education, the book presents insights, lessons and examples from many countries on both sides of the Atlantic that help bring about effective strategic change.

                                  Strategy in the Public Sector has been written for anyone who has a role in modernising the public sector and requires a practical guide in making strategic changes that are both responsive to the public need and sustainable.
