Este libro contribuye a comprender el entorno empresarial, en especial pero no exclusivamente de la Costa Caribe Colombiana. Lo hace desde una perspectiva, la de la Historia Empresarial, que se nutre de tres disciplinas: la historia, la economía y la Administración. Los estudios e investigaciones sobre la historia empresarial de este "país de regiones" han tenido un avance importante desde hace un cuarto de siglo. La historiografía empresarial de la Costa Caribe, en particular, ha crecido en volumen y calidad como lo atestiguan varios capítulos de este libro. Su foco está en examinar críticamente el estado de la cuestión en este campo académico y las lecciones que allí se derivan
Teoría e historia sobre el empresario - Historia de las elites empresariales regionales - Historia del empresario - Historia de empresas - Historia sectorial y gremial - Historia del empresariado y el desarrollo tecnológico.
En este trabajo se estudia la economía y las actividades empresariales del Magdalena Grande y del Bajo Magdalena. La primera subregión está ubicada en la parte nororiental del Caribe colombiano, conformada por los actuales departamentos de Cesar, La Guajira y Magdalena. También se estudian las actividades productivas y empresariales que se desarrollaron alrededor de la ciudad de Barranquilla y el Bajo Magdalena, las cuales representan fuertes encadenamientos con la economía de los departamentos que conforman el Magdalena Grande. El estudio toma como punto de partida la década de 1870, periodo durante el cual Santa Marta perdía población y su economía entraba en una crisis profunda. A principios del siglo XX se consolidó la economía bananera del Magdalena, se extendió la ganadería en Valledupar y continuó la economía extractiva en la Guajira. El estudio cierra en la década de 1930, donde se muestran los efectos que tuvo en la región la gran crisis de 1929-1932. A lo largo del documento se argumenta que no fue la falta de mentidad empresarial el factor determinante en el rezago de algunas actividades económicas rurales del Magdalena Grande, sino que estas presentaban limitaciones agroecológicas severas y una oferta ambiental fragmentada.--Contraportda.
National Book Award for Nonfiction Finalist National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction Finalist A New York Times Notable Book of the Year A Washington Post Notable Book of the Year A PBS “Now Read This” Book Club Selection Named one of the Best Books of the Year by the Economist and the Boston Globe A landmark exposé and “deeply engaging legal history” of one of the most successful, yet least known, civil rights movements in American history (Washington Post). In a revelatory work praised as “excellent and timely” (New York Times Book Review, front page), Adam Winkler, author of Gunfight, once again makes sense of our fraught constitutional history in this incisive portrait of how American businesses seized political power, won “equal rights,” and transformed the Constitution to serve big business. Uncovering the deep roots of Citizens United, he repositions that controversial 2010 Supreme Court decision as the capstone of a centuries-old battle for corporate personhood. “Tackling a topic that ought to be at the heart of political debate” (Economist), Winkler surveys more than four hundred years of diverse cases—and the contributions of such legendary legal figures as Daniel Webster, Roger Taney, Lewis Powell, and even Thurgood Marshall—to reveal that “the history of corporate rights is replete with ironies” (Wall Street Journal). We the Corporations is an uncompromising work of history to be read for years to come.
An edited group of 21 papers on urban change; in addition, the author contributed the four initial chapters on theoretical methods. The remaining papers consider factors of urban change, mostly for the latter part of the 20th century, for countries in Europe, the Americas, South Africa, and Asia. Themes include migration, population change, and the impact of political change. The international group of contributors is made up of academics in geography, urban and regional planning, and demography.
In recent times what has become known as "the case of Medellín " has generated a growing interest in the international community. These urban transformation that Medellín has experimented have become a focus of attention and reference for experts in many fields, around the world. The book ́Medellin: Environment, Urbanism and Society ́, that now published the Center for Urban and Environmental Studies, Urbam, of EAFIT University is a testimony of the value given by our culture to the accomplishments of the city, to the idea of the public sphere and the growing relationship between the technical sphere and the political sphere, understood in the broad sense as a form of disciplinary knowledge and construction of civil society. This book brings together a knowledge of the city from multiple perspectives; knowledge that is, without any doubt, impressive for its extension and profoundity, as well as for its capacity to combine objective data with conceptual reflections about the scope and impact of the different perspectives concerning the theme of urban transformation and the different actors that have participated in such processes. The book weaves a broad net over the city, its history and development, adopting a multidisciplinary vision. I think that this will be the first step in creating a speech that might finally liberate itself from the strict disciplinary boundaries, building a trans-disciplinary perspective that can amplify the urban dimension of the city. This is the beginning of a profound and complex reflection that is, at the same time, a project of knowledge and an instrument of action and participation.
There is long-standing debate on how population growth affects national economies. A new report from Population Matters examines the history of this debate and synthesizes current research on the topic. The authors, led by Harvard economist David Bloom, conclude that population age structure, more than size or growth per se, affects economic development, and that reducing high fertility can create opportunities for economic growth if the right kinds of educational, health, and labor-market policies are in place. The report also examines specific regions of the world and how their differing policy environments have affected the relationship between population change and economic development.
