Sommario/riassunto

This book argues that investor risk in emerging markets hinges on the company a country keeps. When a country signs on to an economic agreement with states that are widely known to be stable, it looks less risky. Conversely, when a country joins a group with more unstable members, it looks more risky. Investors use the company a country keeps as a heuristic in evaluating that country's willingness to honor its sovereign debt obligations. This has important implications for the study of international cooperation as well as of sovereign risk and credibility at the domestic level.

Sommario/riassunto

The Silent Child: Communication without Words describes  a way of understanding and communicating with children who are not speaking, but rather using their bodies and somatic symptoms to express states of mind. Jeanne Magagna has worked for 45 years trying to find ways of helping these children, varying  in age and symptoms.  Using  infant observation methods of understanding primitive states of mind expressed through gestures of eyes, hands, body posture,  she has worked in in-patient or out-patient settings with  contributors: a group of psychiatrists, psychologists, family and child psycho
