    Content: "A landmark study in the struggle to contain climate change, the greatest challenge of our era. I urge everyone to read it."--Bill Clinton, 42nd President of the United States of America. Climate change differs from any other problem that, as collective humanity, we face today. If it goes unchecked, the consequences are likely to be catastrophic for human life on earth. Yet for most people, and for many policy-makers too, it is a 'back of the mind' issue. We recognise its importance and even its urgency, but for the most part it is swamped by more immediate concerns. Politicians have woken up to the dangers, but at the moment their responses are mainly on the level of gesture rather than being, as they have to be, both concrete and radical. Political action and intervention, on local, national and international levels, is going to have a decisive effect on whether or not we can limit global warming, as well as how we adapt to that already occurring. At the moment, however, Anthony Giddens argues controversially, we do not have a systematic politics of climate change. Politics-as-usual won't allow us to deal with the problems we face, while the recipes of the main challenger to orthodox politics, the green movement, are flawed at source. Giddens introduces a range of new concepts and proposals to fill in the gap, and examines in depth the connections between climate change and energy security. This book is likely to become a classic in the field. It will appeal to everyone concerned about how we can cope with what amounts to a crisis for our civilisation.

    Content: "This comprehensive overview of the modern Chinese economy by a noted expert on China's economic development offers a quality and breadth of coverage not found in any other English-language text. In The Chinese Economy, Barry Naughton provides both an engaging, broadly focused introduction to China's economy since 1949 and original insights based on his own extensive research. The book will be an essential resource for students, teachers, scholars, business people, and policymakers. It is suitable for classroom use for undergraduate or graduate courses." "After presenting background material on the pre-1949 economy and the industrialization, reform, and market transition that have taken place since, the book examines different aspects of the modern Chinese economy. It analyzes patterns of growth and development, including population growth and the one-child family policy, the rural economy, including agriculture and rural industrialization; industrial and technological development in urban areas; international trade and foreign investment; macroeconomic trends and cycles and the financial system; and the largely unaddressed problems of environmental quality and the sustainability of growth." "The text is notable also for placing China's economy in interesting comparative contexts, discussing it in relation to other transitional or developing economies and to such advanced industrial countries as the United States and Japan. It provides a broad historical and macro perspective as well as a focused examination of the actual workings of China's complex and dynamic economic development. Interest in the Chinese economy will continue to grow as China becomes an increasingly important player on the world's stage. This book will be the standard reference for understanding and teaching about the next economic superpower. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.

    Series Statement: The Princeton economic history of the Western world
    Content: Why are some parts of the world so rich and others so poor? Why did the Industrial Revolution--and the unprecedented economic growth that came with it--occur in eighteenth-century England, and not at some other time, or in some other place? Why didn't industrialization make the whole world rich--and why did it make large parts of the world even poorer? Economic historian Clark tackles these questions and suggests a new and provocative way in which culture--not exploitation, geography, or resources--explains the wealth, and the poverty, of nations.--From publisher description.

    Content: Die Deregulierung des britischen Finanzsektors in den 1980er Jahren und der entschiedene Wille der damaligen Regierung unter Margret Thatcher, London zu einer der führenden Wirtschaftsmetropolen im transnationalen Wettbewerb auszubauen, haben die Stadt verstärkt dem Einfluss der Globalisierung ausgesetzt. Seitdem hat sich London von einer gealterten Haupt- und Industriestadt zu einer Global City der höchsten Rangstufe verändert.Der Band nimmt diesen Wandel in den Blick und thematisiert die städtebaulichen, wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und planerischen Folgen, etwa die Überformung des Stadtkörpers durch den Bau neuer Büro- und Wohnhochhäuser, die Gentrifizierung ehemaliger Arbeiterquartiere oder die Zunahme der sozialräumlichen Disparitäten
    Content: The deregulation of the British financial sector in the 1980s and the intention of the Thatcher government to make London a new economic metropolis have increased the city's exposure to the influence of globalization. Today, London has turned from an aged industrial capital into a global city of highest rank. This volume looks at this transition and provides information about the great consequences for urban construction, economy, society, and planning, such as the over-shaping of the cityscape through the construction of new office and residential high rises, the gentrification of former working class areas, or the increased disparities of social spaces

    Series Statement: Kultur und soziale Praxis
    Content: Klimawandel, Ressourcenverknappung und Wirtschaftskrisen auf der einen Seite, Wachstumsparadigma, Massenkonsum und Wegwerfmentalität auf der anderen - immer mehr Menschen überwinden diese Widersprüche in Nischen und setzen sich dafür ein, Dinge länger in Nutzungskreisläufen zu halten: Teilen und Tauschen sowie Reparieren und Retten werden als Möglichkeiten gedeutet, nachhaltiger zu leben und damit zu gesellschaftlicher Transformation beizutragen.Ausgehend von den zentralen Akteuren in drei exemplarischen Feldern - Kleidertauschpartys, Reparaturcafés und Mülltauchen - untersucht Maria Grewe in einer vergleichend angelegten Ethnographie die kulturellen Strategien im Umgang mit Überfluss und Knappheit und prüft dabei, welchen Beitrag kulturanthropologische Forschung für den Nachhaltigkeitsdiskurs leisten kann
    Content: Recycling, upcycling, and the share economy: sharing and swapping or the repurposing of everyday objects has gained increased importance in our consumption-driven and disposable society - in swap parties, repair cafés or in dumpster diving. Based on the central actors in these exemplary fields, Maria Grewe uses a comparative ethnographic approach to examine the cultural strategies for dealing with abundance and scarcity. In doing so, she also considers the contribution that cultural-anthropological research can make to sustainability discourse
