Sommario/riassunto |
|
Oil exporters have run large current account surpluses. We explore oil exporters' role in our understanding and the resolution of global imbalances. Current account dynamics are estimated for oil-exporting countries and the rest of the world. We find that fiscal policy has a much stronger effect on current account of oil exporters than on current account of other countries. The current account adjustment of oil-exporting countries is also faster than that of other countries. We conclude that a change in fiscal policy of oil exporters can have significant and speedy impact on global imbalances. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This handbook has been specially written for primary teachers who have responsibility for coordinating English at Key Stage 1. It goes step by step through every stage of coordinating English in primary schools and provides valuable information for teachers who are new to being a subject leader, as well as those with more experience. Full of accessible advice and suggestions for improving practice, the handbook shows how a coordinator can create policies and links that work, exploit resources to the best effect, and develop the knowledge and expertise that will raise school standards. |

topography of the city in Irish writing, it brings together studies of Irish and Northern Irish fictions which contribute to a more complete picture of modern Irish literature and Irish urban cultural identities. It offers a critical introduction to the Irish city as it represented in fiction as a plural space to mirror the plurality of contemporary Irish identities north and south of the border. The chapters combine to provide a platform for new research in the field of Irish urban literary studies, including analyses of the fiction of authors including James Joyce, Roddy Doyle, Kate O'Brien, Hugo Hamilton, Kevin Barry, and Rosemary Jenkinson. An exciting and diverse range of fictions is introduced and examined with the aim of generating a cohesive perspective on Irish urban fictions and to stimulate further discussion in this emerging area. |
