Approaches to Spread, Scale-Up, and Sustainability


Free Download Approaches to Spread, Scale-Up, and Sustainability
English | 2024 | ISBN: 100946261X | 52 Pages | PDF (True) | 0.8 MB
Few interventions that succeed in improving healthcare locally end up becoming spread and sustained more widely. This indicates that we need to think differently about spreading improvements in practice. Drawing on a focused review of academic and grey literature, the authors outline how spread, scale-up, and sustainability have been defined and operationalised, highlighting areas of ambiguity and contention. Following an overview of relevant frameworks and models, they focus on three specific approaches and unpack their theoretical assumptions and practical implications: the Dynamic Sustainability Framework, the 3S (structure, strategy, supports) infrastructure approach for scale-up, and the NASSS (non-adoption, abandonment, and challenges to scale-up, spread, and sustainability) framework. Key points are illustrated through empirical case narratives and the Element concludes with actionable learning for those engaged in improvement activities and for researchers. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

The Spread of Novels Translation and Prose Fiction in the Eighteenth Century


Free Download The Spread of Novels: Translation and Prose Fiction in the Eighteenth Century (Translation/Transnation) by Mary Helen McMurran
English | October 4, 2009 | ISBN: 0691141525, 0691141533 | True EPUB | 272 pages | 7.9 MB
Fiction has always been in a state of transformation and circulation: how does this history of mobility inform the emergence of the novel? The Spread of Novels explores the active movements of English and French fiction in the eighteenth century and argues that the new literary form of the novel was the result of a shift in translation. Demonstrating that translation was both the cause and means by which the novel attained success, Mary Helen McMurran shows how this period was a watershed in translation history, signaling the end of a premodern system of translation and the advent of modern literary exchange.

The Spread of the Modern Central Bank and Global Cooperation 1919-1939


Free Download Barry Eichengreen, "The Spread of the Modern Central Bank and Global Cooperation: 1919-1939 "
English | ISBN: 1009367544 | 2023 | 350 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Central banks were not always as ubiquitous as they are today. Their functions were circumscribed, their mandates ambiguous, and their allegiances once divided. The inter-war period saw the establishment of twenty-eight new central banks – most in what are now called emerging markets and developing economies. The Emergence of the Modern Central Bank and Global Cooperation provides a new account of their experience, explaining how these new institutions were established and how doctrinal knowledge was transferred. Combining synthetic analysis with national case studies, this book shows how institutional design and monetary practice were shaped by international organizations and leading central banks, which attached conditions to stabilization loans and dispatched ‘money doctors.’ It highlights how many of these arrangements fell through when central bank independence and the gold standard collapsed.
