A History of Business in Medieval Europe, 1200–1550

A History of Business in Medieval Europe, 1200–1550

Hunt Edwin S.; James Murray

Cambridge University Press
1999
pokkari
This book demolishes the widely held view that the phrase ‘medieval business’ is an oxymoron. The authors review the entire range of business in medieval western Europe, probing its Roman and Christian heritage to discover the economic and political forces that shaped the organization of agriculture, manufacturing, construction, mining, transportation and marketing. Businessmen’s responses to the devastating plagues, famines, and warfare that beset Europe in the late Middle Ages are equally well covered. Medieval businessmen’s remarkable success in coping with this hostile new environment was ‘a harvest of adversity’ that prepared the way for the economic expansion of the sixteenth century. Two main themes run through this book. First, the force and direction of business development in this period stemmed primarily from the demands of the elite. Second, the lasting legacy of medieval businessmen was less their skillful adaptations of imported inventions than their brilliant innovations in business organization.

The Economics of Environmental Quality

The Economics of Environmental Quality

Graves Philip E.; Mills Edwin S.

WW Norton Co
1986
sidottu
An introduction to the economics of the environment, it provides a coherent chain of theoretical and empirical reasoning on environmental problems and measures to control them and reduce their severity. It equips the reader with the basic tools needed to assess the economic damage caused by materials discharged to air, water, and other environmental media. The all-new Chapter 2 in this edition makes the text more accessible by applying the basic elements of microeconomics analysis to environmental issues: supply and demand for ordinary and environmental goods, emphasizing both similarities and differences; also market failure, public goods, property rights, the "free rider" problem, and externalities. A section on hazardous substances has been added along with a discussion of the latest environmental alternative reforms. The book now ends with a new chapter on the prospects for environmental economics. In Part I, the authors establish a theoretical base for the material in subsequent sections. They review key elements of microeconomic theory and extend them to include polluting discharges. Principles of welfare economics, of market failure from externalities, and of benefit-cost analysis receive careful exposition. They are then applied to alternative government programs such as effluent fees, subsidies, and regulation designed to optimize resource allocation in the presence of externalities. Part II draws together technical data on water, air, and solid-waste discharges. Sources, amounts, damages, abatement techniques, and benefit-cost calculations are pollutants. The final section deals with pollution-control programs now in effect, proposals for new policies, and future role of environmental economics.

The Thorn in the Chrysanthemum

The Thorn in the Chrysanthemum

Mamoru Iga; Edwin S. Shneidman; David K. Reynolds

University of California Press
2018

Japanese society is frequently held up to the Western world as a model of harmony and efficiency, but the price it pays tends to be overlooked. In a searching analysis that will fascinate students and admirers of Japan as much as it will inform psychologists and suicidologists, Mamoru Iga discusses the precise nature of the “thorn in the chrysanthemum,” a thorn that may hurt both the Japanese and the outsider who conducts business with them. The author, who was reared and educated in Japan, is uniquely qualified to interpret the value orientations of a society in which suicide is all too common. He finds that the traits leading to homogeneity and extreme adaptability in that society as a whole are the very traits that can produce painful reactions in the individual. Those traits are described as monism, groupism, authoritarianism, familism, and accommodationism, and together they comprise the Japanese “social character.” Because the individual’s behavior is based on the images, assumptions, and ideas about the world that make up his or her culture, conformism in the individual is one major manifestation of Japan’s social character. In Japan, the need to fill one’s socially prescribed role may make it doubly difficult to think independently and creatively and to find solutions for the resulting stress. Suicide notes and other personal documents reveal the painful cost of modern Japan’s success story, as the examination of individual suicides is related both to the theoretical framework of Durkheim’s types of suicide and to the sociological patterns that characterize suicide in Japan. It is in personal value orientations, however, that Iga finds the common ground between suicide and economic success. American readers will find especially interesting the contrast between value orientations in Japan and in the United States. Nearly the opposite of the Japanese traits described above, American values of rationalism, individualism, competition, and change create their own problems. There is much to be learned from this expert analysis of the problem of suicide in Japan. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1986.

In India aquaculture industry is also increasing rapidly with growth rate of 6 % per annum. This industry includes shell fish like prawns, lobsters and krills etc., also called crustaceans. Crustacean wastes are one of the major sources for producing value-added products like chitin and chitosan. India has a capacity of production of 10,000 tons of chitin per year from prawn shell only. This prawn waste is also utilized for producing chitin, chitosan and glucosamine hydrochloride that is consumed in the pharmaceutical industry. During the chitin extraction process, the prawn shells are restrained to deproteinisation causing formation of chitin precipitate and protein slurry containing around 6-7 per cent protein. The shell waste slurry was utilized in layer diet by coating the same on DORB and broiler diet. A multitude of agents viz., cellulose, pectin, sunflower meal, chitin, Lactobacillus acidophilus have been tried to decrease the serum and egg yolk cholesterol, of which chitin and Lactobacillus acidophilus have enticed the scientists by their unique attribute in decreasing the serum total cholesterol and egg yolk cholesterol.
