India Infrastructure Report 2012 Private Sector in Education

India Infrastructure Report 2012 Private Sector in Education

Today India�s education sector remains a victim of poor policies restrictive regulations and orthodoxy. Despite being enrolled in schools children are not learning adequately. Increasingly parents are seeking alternatives through private inputs in school and tuition. Students are dropping out from secondary school in spite of high financial returns of secondary education and those who do complete it have inferior conceptual knowledge. Higher education is over-regulated and under-governed keeping away serious private providers and reputed global institutes. Graduates from high schools colleges and universities are not readily employable and few are willing to pay for skill development. Ironically the Right to Education Act if strictly enforced will result in closure of thousands of non-state schools and millions of poor children will be left without access to education. Eleventh in the series India Infrastructure Report 2012 discusses challenges in the education sector � elementary secondary higher and vocational � and explores strategies for constructive change and opportunities for the private sector. It suggests that immediate steps are required to reform the sector to reap the benefits from India�s �demographic dividend� due to a rise in the working age population. Result of a collective effort led by the IDFC Foundation this Report brings together a range of perspectives from academics researchers and practitioners committed to enhancing educational practices. It will be an invaluable resource for policymakers researchers and corporates. | India Infrastructure Report 2012 Private Sector in Education

Between Coercion and Private Initiative Entrepreneurial Freedom of Action during the ‘Third Reich’

Between Coercion and Private Initiative Entrepreneurial Freedom of Action during the ‘Third Reich’

This book explores the extent of private companies’ freedom of action during the Nazi period through six case studies of different economic sectors. Since the mid-1990s historical research has intensively discussed the role played by private domestic and foreign enterprises during the ‘Third Reich’. Numerous case studies suggest that even under the extreme ideological circumstances of the ‘Third Reich’ the strategic decisions of private firms followed economic criteria. In fact the regime was especially able to control the economy successfully in those cases in which it operated with economic incentives and gave companies room for manoeuvre. This scope however became increasingly smaller towards the end of the war due to increasing state intervention and government control. The chapters discuss this scope of action and relate it to the National Socialist crimes. This book was originally published as a special issue of Business History. | Between Coercion and Private Initiative Entrepreneurial Freedom of Action during the ‘Third Reich’

Counselling Children and Young People in Private Practice A Practical Guide

Counselling Children and Young People in Private Practice A Practical Guide

With statutory CAMHS services often heavily oversubscribed and school and college services mainly offering brief therapeutic interventions parents are increasingly turning to private practitioners for therapy for their children when they need expert emotional or psychological support. Working privately with children and families can be a rewarding experience for counsellors and psychotherapists but it can also be fraught with concerns for both practitioners and families alike. These concerns can seem so daunting that therapists with clinical experience of therapy with children continue to limit themselves to working only in education or statutory settings. This book offers comprehensive guidance to both experienced and novice counsellors to assist them in the process of setting up or adapting their private practice to include children and young people. It coherently and systematically addresses the obstacles which stand in the way of practitioners offering this important service effectively and ethically. The book is divided into four parts and uses case material to bring to life the areas covered by each chapter. Each chapter concludes with a summary of key points covered. | Counselling Children and Young People in Private Practice A Practical Guide

Brazilian Agricultural Diplomacy in the 21st Century A Public – Private Partnership

Brazilian Agricultural Diplomacy in the 21st Century A Public – Private Partnership

Brazil’s growing dependence on agriculture has positioned agribusiness in a uniquely privileged position to influence Brazilian foreign policy. Brazilian Agricultural Diplomacy in the 21st Century examines how the inclusion of domestic “national champions” in foreign policy has shaped events within key global governance arenas. Starting with an explanation of the structural economic importance of agriculture within the Brazilian economy Niels Søndergaard tells the story of agribusiness’ participation in foreign policy and how this Brazilian Agricultural Diplomacy has unfolded in recent decades. Expanding on his extensive archival research undertaken in the Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and interviews with key figures Søndergaard analyzes decision-making processes in multilateral trade negotiations WTO dispute settlement joint lobbying transnational multistakeholder governance bilateral interactions and within the agriculture–climate nexus. These case studies show how a clear convergence of interests close coordination resource pooling and coalition formation as part of this “public–private partnership” has produced impactful results within the wider global governance landscape and how key goals of agricultural diplomacy have been internalized by actors in the foreign policymaking process. Brazilian Agricultural Diplomacy in the 21st Century is suitable for scholars and researchers studying developing economies in global governance power transitions and multilateralism food and climate politics and domestic interests in foreign policy. | Brazilian Agricultural Diplomacy in the 21st Century A Public – Private Partnership

Democracy Religion and Commerce Private Markets and the Public Regulation of Religion

Democracy Religion and Commerce Private Markets and the Public Regulation of Religion

This collection considers the relationship between religion state and market. In so doing it also illustrates that the market is a powerful site for the cultural work of secularizing religious conflict. Though expressed as a simile with religious freedom functioning like market freedom “free market religion” has achieved the status of general knowledge about the nature of religion as either good or bad. It legislates good religion as that which operates according to free market principles: it is private with no formal relationship to government; and personal: a matter of belief and conscience. As naturalized elements of historically contingent and discursively maintained beliefs about religion these criteria have ethical and regulatory force. Thus in culture and law the effect of the metaphor has become instrumental not merely descriptive. This volume seeks to productively complicate and invite further analysis of this easy conflation of democracy religion and the market. It invites scholars from a variety of disciplines to consider more intentionally the extent to which markets are implicated and illuminate the place of religion in public life. The book will be a valuable resource for researchers and academics working in the areas of law and religion ethics and economics. | Democracy Religion and Commerce Private Markets and the Public Regulation of Religion
