And yet the Twain Meet: Great Convergence brings the East closer to the West -- Great Divergence and the Rise of the West -- Great Convergence and the Rise of the Rest -- The Great Convergence and Globalization: How the Former Colo-nies Became the World Economic Locomotives -- Afterword. The Great Convergence and Possible Increase in Global Instability, or the World without an Absolute Leader.This new monograph provides a stimulating new take on hotly contested topics in world modernization and the globalizing economy. It begins by situating what is called the Great Divergence--the social/technological revolution that led European nations to outpace the early dominance of Asia--in historical context over centuries. This is contrasted with an equally powerful Great Convergence, the recent economic and technological expansion taking place in Third World nations and characterized by narrowing inequity among nations. They are seen here as two phases of an inevitable global process, centuries in the making, with the potential for both positive and negative results.   This sophisticated presentation examines:   Why the developing world is growing more rapidly than the developed world. How this development began occurring under the Western world's radar. How former colonies of major powers grew to drive the world's economy. Why so many Western economists have been slow to recognize the Great Convergence. The increasing risk of geopolitical instability. Why the world is likely to find itself without an absolute leader after the end of the American hegemony   A work of rare scope, Great Divergence and Great Convergence gives sociologists, global economists, demographers, and global historians a deeper understanding of the broader movement of social and economic history, combined with a long view of history as it is currently being made; it also offers some thrilling forecasts for global development in the forthcoming decades.International Perspectives on Social Policy, Administration, and Practice,2625-6983International economic relationsDemographyPopulationPopulationEconomic aspectsInternational EconomicsPopulation and DemographyPopulation EconomicsInternational Political Economy’International economic relations.Demography.Population.PopulationEconomic aspects.International Economics.Population and Demography.Population Economics.International Political Economy’.304.6330337339.5Grinin Leonidauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut897774Korotayev Andreyauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910298470503321Great Divergence and Great Convergence2519730UNINA04063nam 22006133 450 991101966170332120240925080258.09781394254309139425430X9781394254316139425431897813943085691394308566(CKB)36060714000041(MiAaPQ)EBC31684609(Au-PeEL)EBL31684609(OCoLC)1457640567(OCoLC-P)1457640567(CaSebORM)9781394254293(Perlego)4570931(EXLCZ)993606071400004120240925d2024 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBurnt Out to Lit Up How to Reignite the Joy of Leading People1st ed.Newark :John Wiley & Sons, Incorporated,2024.©2024.1 online resource (239 pages)Description based upon print version of record.9781394254293 1394254296 Where there's smoke, there's fire : recognizing the signs of burnout -- Show up : managing multiple fires -- The hulk with heart : holding people (and yourself) through rage -- Real talk : release your hungry ghost -- Hang in there : leading through the diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging firestorm -- Find awe at work : how to turn your work nightmares into epic adventures -- Get right within : becoming a manager every team deserves -- Beyond burnout.A timely and incisive resource for business leaders and people managers struggling with complacency and burnout in this rapidly evolving world of work Facing the challenges of global cultural, commercial, political, and technological shifts, managers are in dire need of strategies to move from survival to revival.
