This chapter reviews the frames of reference that have been used throughout the book, especially the development models and the changing implications of the drivers. It then examines the developments in the four themes, in particular how they have changed very considerably to bring Britain’s management systems and structures into line with those of other countries, especially in the last three decades or so. A further section seeks to identify changes in the managerial role during the 20th century and to place the very large increase in managerial numbers into perspective. The final section provides some reflections about the transition to managerial capitalism and financial capitalism, the possible trend to managerialism, and the potential for further change in the future.Less

Reviews theoretical justifications and economic consequences of a development strategy adopted, commonly by newly independent developing countries in a few decades after the Second World War, which advocated maximizing capital accumulation in the industrial sector by means of government planning and command. The general failure of this strategy, which had become evident by the 1980s, produced a conviction that accumulated capital cannot be an effective basis for economic development unless it is combined with appropriate technology and manpower under appropriate institutions.Less

This chapter describes both the social and technological evolution of Linux and its development community. By analysing in detail the evolution of the structure of Linux source code over a period of years, it shows how social control and coordination become embedded in a technological artefact. It also shows how social interaction can be ‘translated’ into resources by ‘black-boxing’ some of the underlying complexity behind technological interfaces. The chapter argues that one reason why the open source development model has been successful is that the social translation mechanisms it uses allow several communities to interface simultaneously to a common technological artefact. Moreover, the open source model guarantees that when software fails, it fails gracefully, at least in the social sense. In open source, black boxes have transparent and penetrable walls. The chapter also discusses the bug removal process in Linux and highlights some trade-offs that are needed to make distributed innovation and technology development effective.Less

Employment is the highest priority for many people with severe mental illness and it is a central aspect of recovery. Over the past two decades, the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) model of supported employment has emerged as the prominent evidence-based approach to vocational rehabilitation. This book synthesizes the research and experience on IPS supported employment: historical context, core principles, effectiveness, long-term outcomes, non-vocational outcomes, cost-effectiveness, generalizability, fidelity, implementation, policy, and future research. This book relates to areas of work with populations with psychiatric disabilities and in community mental health and social service settings. In tracing the evolution of IPS, readers are equipped with an elegant example of the transition from needs assessment, to model development, to testing, and to dissemination.Less

The final chapter ties together developments in city and countryside revealed by the previous discussions. It outlines two possible models of urban development in this period, emphasizes the increasing hierarchisation of cities in the high empire, and returns to the four areas examined in the first chapter — Campania, Etruria, Samnium, and Lucania — to provide a concluding overview of city-country relationships there. A final case study, of Ligures Baebiani, provides an illustration of the efforts made to maintain civic life even in a small centre overshadowed by its much larger neighbour.Less

The chapter explains the various models of development that Finland has employed. Interconnections between business and the state are examined in the chapter. Businesses are responsible for bringing economic growth and stability in Finland through increasing the productivity and competitiveness of its citizens in the world economy. This is supported by the state which serves an important role for the country's development. The state is featured by three defining features of legitimacy. It is redistributive and democratic, and it plays its role as an equalizer and protector of the interests of the majority. A general model of the information society of Finland and the relationships between the country's state and society are also included in the chapter.Less

This concluding chapter aims to draw out from the preceding chapters answers to key questions about the transportability to Muslim countries of development models, particularly the Chinese model. These questions turn on perceptions of the model at the sending and receiving ends; the viability and sustainability of the model itself; the economic, political, and cultural bilateral and regional relations that provide the context within which the model is perceived and acted upon; preconditions for the adoption and success of the model; the role of competitive models; and the type of governance assumed by the model and whether viable functional substitutes for governance institutions can be found. Answers to these questions may, in turn, enable an assessment of the relevance of models for development, especially across Muslim majority countries.Less

The chapter discusses new problems that Finland encounters that have started to hinder the smooth flow of its models of development. The integration of information technology with financial markets was fast paced, but their convergences with other industries has been quite slow. Another growing problem is in the failure of the highly advanced structures in the government to implement effectively and meet their goals. The recent recessions that happened in the country has failed to provide adequate benefits for the elderly, the alcoholic, and those with mental illnesses. Migration is another threat since the country enforces strict immigration laws. Last but not the least is that the younger generations in Finland are characterized as being less inclined to entrepreneurialism which is an important factor for economic stability.Less

For more than half a century, the United States and the Soviet Union provided the political economy models for the developing world. However, in the end the Soviet model was relegated to the dustbins of history and the ‘Washington Consensus’ was replaced by an emerging alternative model — the Beijing Consensus, which gained popularity not only because of its economic power but because it served as a counterbalance to American and Western influence. This book examines the development models in Muslim majority countries. In order to gain perspective on the relative attractiveness and impacts of development models in the Muslim world, and of the Chinese model, it is appropriate to compare receptivity to that model in other regions. To this end, the book includes separate chapters on the Chinese model in Latin America and Africa, both of which are permeated by the Chinese model of development. This book begins by examining the Chinese model. It then discusses Muslim majority countries and the role played by the Chinese model in these countries. The book ends with a discussion of the centrality of governance to development of Third World countries.Less

This book proposes a new concept of what development consists of in our global information age. It analyzes the conditions of economic development and human development under the conditions of the new globalized world. It describes how the development models become more linked with the capacity to innovate, to invest in human capital, and to reform the industrial structures—all behind productivity, competitiveness, and economic growth in our information age. At the same time, the book analyzes how the forms of human development also have to reform: from the industrial welfare state to the new wellbeing society of the information age. In order to form a virtuous circle between this new type of economic development and human development, ecological sustainability has to be included as the basis—all of these linked together with a sustainable cultural link. Ultimately, the book proposes the new concept of “dignity as development,” that is, dignity as the final goal of development.Less

This chapter is a thorough examination of the concept of the developmental state (DS) – believed to be a key policy and institutional arrangement behind the greatest developmental successes of the second half of the twentieth century, often referred to as the East Asian miracle. The chapter is also concerned with the DS model's contemporary applicability and the extension of the DS debate to China. Is it a contemporarily valid recipe for underdevelopment or just a historical phenomenon with no relevance for the globalised world? In view of the spectacular developmental advancements of China and its geographical and cultural proximity to the countries of the East Asian miracle, among them Japan and Korea, there perhaps should be some reference and relevance. The chapter starts with an analysis of the features of the developmental state, which involves its economic and political conditionality. It examines the model's geographical and temporal limitations, the relations among the state's main actors, institutional and systemic arrangements, state ideology and state policies. Upon establishing a set of features and conditionalities, as presented in the scholarly literature, it is argued that the model's variation can still be contemporarily applicable. It is then explained how it extends to contemporary China.Less

This chapter explains China's contemporary development trajectory. It examines the main features of the post-socialist developmental state (PSDS), as one which fuses the two intellectual streams, that of the concept of the developmental state and that of post-socialist transformation. It is argued that China has become a genus of the PSDS model and that this model provides an explanation for the institutional and policy choices of the state leadership during the time of systemic transformation. The concept of post-socialist developmental state is believed to be a normative model, with transferable lessons for underdeveloped countries in systemic transition. For the post-socialist states it is seen as the logical consequence of transformation, which was not employed due to international pressure. For other underdeveloped countries it is offered as a general developmental guidance, valid particularly now when neo-liberalism has been discredited and the criticism of global capitalism is mounting, and there is indeed some space to be less doctrinaire in an attempt to accelerate development. The chapter starts with the examination of the PSDS features. It then continues with the explanation of China's development as a genus of the PSDS model. Finally it examines the model's broader applicability.Less

This chapter examines the height of the Sino–Soviet rivalry for leadership of the revolution in the developing world from 1963 to 1965. It details events in the United Arab Republic (UAR), Algeria, and Indonesia to illustrate how the Soviets ultimately rebuffed the Chinese challenge. During this period, China presented itself as a full-service alternative to the Soviet Union, with an aid program and development model in addition to its rhetoric of militant anti-imperialism. A response by the Soviet Union to the Chinese challenge would require a reverse of the policies that had been pursued by the Khrushchev-led regime. Khrushchev's successors, Leonid Brezhnev and Alexei Kosigyn, embraced more openly militant and confrontational policy that would cause a deterioration of Soviet–American relations.Less

This introductory chapter discusses the objective of this book, which is to offer a historically informed, holistic account of the recent Japanese challenge to the American neoliberal world order. It explains that this “Japanese challenge” is the set of Japanese foreign economic policies which since the mid-1980s have promoted a state-led alternative model of economic development. The book investigates what made it possible for Japan to challenge U.S.-led neoliberalism, and why Japan proposed to create the Asian Monetary Fund during the Asian financial crisis while intentionally excluding the U.S.Less

This chapter evaluates the evidence presented to distinguish overall sectoral patterns, specific sector and subsector cases, and development over time. In doing so, it assesses China's new development model based on actual economic outcomes and political change. It argues that China's bifurcated strategy in response to economic globalization signifies a distinctive national model of sectoral integration into the international economy. This distinctive model of economic integration questions conventional wisdom on the impact of liberalization on state strength, capacity, and autonomy in the developing world. The Chinese government's perception of the strategic value of industrial sectors has driven the bifurcated nature of its international integration. But sectoral attributes also shape the actual details of regulatory reform.Less

This chapter develops a model for the results of an experiment, in which young safflower plants were grown in water deliberately contaminated with specified concentrations of glyphosate, a widely used weedkiller. The discussions cover turning a scientific theory into a statistical model; the simple linear model; fitting the simple linear model; extending the simple linear model; checking assumptions; an exponential growth model; non-linear models; generalized linear models; and the statistical modelling cycle (formulate, fit, check, reformulate).Less
