The Market Meets Its Match

The Market Meets Its Match

Under free-market shock therapy, the economies of Eastern Europe have plunged into crisis. Shortages may have disappeared, but so have social services, a living wage, and equitable income distribution. Political unrest increases apace as output plummets. Why so much stagnation, inflation, and de-industrialization, and what can be done to turn this risky state of affairs around? This book, the first critique of the free-market economic policies that have jolted Eastern Europe, addresses these questions in penetrating detail. The authors also propose a sensible approach to reform, including a restructuring of the state itself so that it can play a more positive role in this difficult transition. With close attention to the history and institutional realities of the region, The Market Meets Its Match explains the failure of the simplistic market medicine administered in the first five years of transition. Merely “getting the prices right”—lowering wages and raising interest rates and energy prices—won't improve competitiveness, the authors argue, as long as nonlabor costs such as the quality of goods, product design, outmoded technology, and inefficient distribution channels remain problems. Easing these bottlenecks requires long-term capital accumulation and profit maximization. The institutions necessary for such growth have not developed under Eastern Europe's new “pseudo-capitalism,” as the authors demonstrate, and “pseudo-privatization,” while distributing state property to citizens, has not provided them with the capital and technology they need to succeed. This book shows that the market mechanism alone will not transform Eastern Europe's potentially productive enterprises into international competitors without careful government coordination and support.

I den svenska översättningen av Kielhofner’s Model of Human Occupation (femte amerikanska upplagan, den andra i svensk översättning), presenteras teori, forskning och tillämpning av modellen i boken. Modellen förklarar hur aktivitet motiveras, inordnas i vardagens livsmönster, utförs och påverkas av aktuell miljökontext samt vad som händer när människan ställs inför svårigheter som sjukdom, skador och annat som leder till problem med att utföra aktiviteter. I boken diskuteras hur arbetsterapi med stöd av modellen kan möjliggöra för människor att engagera sig i aktiviteter som ger mening och tillfredsställelse och som gynnar deras fysiska och emotionella välbefinnande. MOHO är den internationellt mest spridda och använda aktivitetsfokuserade modellen inom arbetsterapi. Boken innehåller rikligt med exempel på hur MOHO kan användas vid personcentrerad arbetsterapi. Modellen grundar sig på omfattande forskning och det finns ett starkt evidensbaserat empiriskt stöd för modellen och dess användning, vilket framkommer i bokens rika referensmaterial. I denna femte upplaga av boken har nya kapitel med tillämpning av modellen inom olika områden tillkommit och miljöns betydelse för görande och aktivitet har utvecklats. Boken vänder sig främst till arbetsterapeuter, studenter och forskare inom arbetsterapi men även till andra som vill fördjupa sig kring människans engagemang och delaktighet i aktivitet.Den engelska originalupplagan är publicerad av Wolters Kluwer.

For Alice Tayler, the only way to get attention in a family plagued by mental ill health was to hurt herself - at least, that's what Munchausen syndrome led her to believe.Overcome paints a jarring picture of what Tayler's life has been like with this psychological condition, one that has caused her to feign illness or pain to get others to care for her. While her story may be tough to read at times, it's an important one to be told, considering how hard it can be to understand Munchausen syndrome from the outside looking in.

An entertaining and eye-opening biography of America's most memorable first daughterFrom the moment Teddy Roosevelt's outrageous and charming teenage daughter strode into the White House—carrying a snake and dangling a cigarette—the outspoken Alice began to put her imprint on the whole of the twentieth-century political scene. Her barbed tongue was as infamous as her scandalous personal life, but whenever she talked, powerful people listened, and she reigned for eight decades as the social doyenne in a town where socializing was state business. Historian Stacy Cordery's unprecedented access to personal papers and family archives enlivens and informs this richly entertaining portrait of America?s most memorable first daughter and one of the most influential women in twentieth-century American society and politics.

A mind-bending new novel inspired by the twisted and wondrous works of Lewis Carroll... In a warren of crumbling buildings and desperate people called the Old City, there stands a hospital with cinderblock walls which echo the screams of the poor souls inside. In the hospital, there is a woman. Her hair, once blond, hangs in tangles down her back. She doesn't remember why she's in such a terrible place. Just a tea party long ago, and long ears, and blood... Then, one night, a fire at the hospital gives the woman a chance to escape, tumbling out of the hole that imprisoned her, leaving her free to uncover the truth about what happened to her all those years ago. Only something else has escaped with her. Something dark. Something powerful. And to find the truth, she will have to track this beast to the very heart of the Old City, where the rabbit waits for his Alice.
