The Social City Space as Collaborative Media to Enhance the Value of the City - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Yasuhiro Kawahara • Saburo Saito • Junichi Suzuk خلاصه: Today, as cities worldwide are equipped with networks to implement the IoT, we can communicate seamlessly between the real and virtual worlds. With such an infra- structure, urban development and evaluation methods are entering a new phase. By grasping the ever-changing situation of the city and the behavior of the people in the city, and by building a CPS (Cyber-Physical System), it will be possible to provide the people in the city with the appropriate information in the right place at the right time. This information is created through a cloud system that interfaces with the city to provide customized information to every individual. Therefore, a city that is both functional and attractive to people would be the one that is equipped with software to create and communicate this kind of information in real-time and hardware to make the most of it. To provide a concrete perspective in this book, we discuss this new direction of urban development, emphasizing physical and social communication from the perspective of the people involved in the city. For example, we discuss how we can evaluate the city’s value as the intangible asset value of its attractiveness that people have embraced in their minds through their experiences. Also, we discuss how we can build a system that enhances the city’s value by utilizing communication tools such as IoT technology and social networking services. In this book, we refer to the concept of “The Social City” as a city that uses information and communication technology to promote communication between people and between people and the city in real space to revitalize the city. While elaborating on the conceptual frame- work of “The Social City,” each chapter provides an outlook by introducing specific research cases

The European Central Bank and Its Role in a Sustainable Finance System - Original PDF
The European Central Bank and Its Role in a Sustainable Finance System - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Harald J. Bolsinger • Johannes Hoffmann • Bernd Villhauer خلاصه: Abstract In this text, all contributions are summarized and the focus of the volume is explained. It highlights the importance of a new cultural setting for ECB sustain- ability strategies. From a system in which the financial sector incorporates sustain- ability according to its own logic, as does the real sector, the political sector, the regulatory sector, and the civil society, we need to start working on a system of mutually consistent logics to move from “(ECB) Climate Finance” to a “Climate Finance Society” and from “Sustainable Finance” to a “Sustainable Finance Soci- ety.” On this basis, one could then start working on the even more ambitious project of putting culture center stage.
Neoliberal Urban Governance - Original PDF
Neoliberal Urban Governance - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Carolina Sternberg خلاصه: Preface As a social scientist, I am interested in understanding how space, govern- ment, and state structure and policy affect urban marginality. My perspec- tive has been shaped by growing up in Buenos Aires and receiving my bachelor’s degree in geography and my master’s degree in public policy. In 2006, I arrived at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign to pursue a Ph.D. in urban geography, hoping to expand the focus and geographical context of my research. Aware of my roots and training in the Global South, my academic advisor, David Wilson, encouraged me to embark on a comparative study of neoliberal governance in Buenos Aires and Chicago. The project drew me not just because it allowed me to make sense of these two different parts of the world, but because it offered a way to bridge gaps between the academic traditions in urban studies between the Global North and the Global South. This book is part of that journey, one that began after I was transplanted in the Midwest, one that flourished while I was in graduate school, and one that to this day has me dissecting differences and similarities between neoliberal urban governance in Buenos Aires and Chicago.
Financial Innovations and Monetary Reform - Original PDF
Financial Innovations and Monetary Reform - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Jean-François Serval · Jean-Pascal Tranié خلاصه: Many economics textbooks have explained the slow transformation from a sub- sistence economy to a barter economy, thus limited by the comparability of the objects or services exchanged. Although an improvement over the subsistence economy, the barter economy remains cumbersome and inefficient, as it requires the simultaneous acceptance of a transaction by both parties with physical delivery. The barter economy eventually gave way to a financial economy that was made possible by the issuance of money, a potentially universal intermediate means of payment, conducive to labor specialization and economic development.1 The Greek civilization and the emerging monetary system that resulted from it led international trade for centuries (from the fifth to the first century BC). Dur- ing this period of antiquity, the countries surrounding the Mediterranean became a world of commercial and industrial competition with the Greeks, the Phoenicians in the west and the Medes on the southeastern border as the players

The Coronavirus Pandemic and Inequality - Original PDF
The Coronavirus Pandemic and Inequality - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Shirley Johnson-Lans خلاصه: his book has been a long time in the making. It was first conceived in the summer of 2020 at which time few people expected a pandemic of the length we have experienced, dealing with a virus that is so efficient in morphing into ever more transmissible variants. Much of the world, including Europe, the United States, and Australia, now seems to have reached a point where COVID-19 is beginning to be regarded as endemic with occasional upticks, much like the annual influenza epidemics with which we have all learned to live. However, since we are not really out of the woods yet with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic, especially as vaccination rates in many parts of the world are well below where they need to be, this book can only be a provisional assessment of the effects and response to the coronavirus pandemic. It is an attempt to summarize and take stock of where many countries in the world stand as of October 2022

Finance Capitalism and Income Inequality in the Contemporary Global Economy - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Kuat B. Akizhanov خلاصه: Rising inequality in income distribution is one of the most persistent global challenges, widespread not only in low- and middle-income coun- tries but also in industrialised ones. There is an increasingly alarming sta- tistics on wealth and income disparity as, for instance, four consecutive Oxfam reports have witnessed. Thus, in 2015 the wealthiest 62 individuals owned as much wealth as 3.6 billion people compared with 388 individu- als in 2010. Their wealth had increased from 2010 by 44% or $542 billion, while the wealth of the bottom 50% of the world’s population dropped by 41%, or over one trillion dollars (Oxfam, 2016). By 2016, just eight mostly white men possessed the same amount of wealth as the poorest half of the global population and the richest 1% controlled more wealth than the rest of the globe. Between 1988 and 2011 the incomes of the poorest decile rose by less than $3 a year compared with a 182-fold increase of the richest 1% (Oxfam, 2017). In 12 months of 2017 the incomes of the world’s elite increased by $762 billion which was enough to eradicate extreme poverty seven times over. Between 2006 and 2015 worker income rose by an aver- age of just 2% a year compared with a 13% increase for billionaires per year. In 2017, top 1% earners received 82% of all growth in global wealth, whereas the poorest half of the world population did not benefit at al
