Financing Innovation and Sustainable Development in Africa


Free Download Steve Kayizzi-Mugerwa Muna Ndulo, "Financing Innovation and Sustainable Development in Africa "
English | ISBN: 1527505561 | 2018 | 405 pages | PDF | 4 MB
This book derives from a symposium held at Cornell University in April 2014. The symposium explored development financing, which has become an important area of policy discussion in Africa and other developing areas in recent years. Using multifaceted and multidisciplinary analytical approaches, it considers the role of the banking system, the stock market, credit access, external aid, and sovereign wealth funds in the evolving development finance architecture. Further, the volume looks at Chinas role as an aid donor, the impact of BRICs partnerships in South Africa, the role of NEPAD in mobilizing resources for infrastructure development, and the links between law, trade, and regional integration. The study concurs with previous analyses that greater access to credit by the poor represents the most effective way of fighting poverty and raising the standards of living in Africa. Cornells Institute for African Development and the African Development Bank were cosponsors of the 2014 symposium.

Financing the Landed Estate Power, Politics and People on the Marquis of Anglesey’s Estate, 1812-1854


Free Download Financing the Landed Estate: Power, Politics and People on the Marquis of Anglesey’s Estate, 1812-1854 by Carol Beardmore
English | EPUB (True) | 2019 | 225 Pages | ISBN : 3030145514 | 1.1 MB
While there is an extensive historiography which explores English agriculture in the nineteenth century, there has been less attention paid to individual estates and in particular the role of the land agent within their management, administration and participation in rural community relationships. Nowhere is this more obvious in the lack of research into the financial history of the landed estate, even though in the early nineteenth century these were some of the largest businesses in England. The Castleman letters are a rich source which detail the intricate working, financial, social and political relationships which constituted the foundation of the landed estate. The vouchers of which more than 10,000 have survived alongside the rental accounts have rarely been examined. On their own they illustrate, for example: the sums paid out on maintenance, the interest payments on mortgages, charitable expenditure, spending on property repairs and one-off payments for a wide and diverse range of items. Together with the diurnal correspondence all three aspects of the archive detail the daily financial undertakings and form the foundation of a new financial history of the estate. This book will show that estate management was underpinned by an inherent understanding of the financial decisions which needed to be taken, and will be of interest to academics and researchers of financial history.
