Time for development -- part 2. Space for development -- part 3. Beyond time and space : imagination.Drawing on philosophy, the history of psychology and the natural sciences, this book proposes a new theoretical foundation for the psychology of the life course. It features the study of unique individual life courses in their social and cultural environment, combining the perspectives of developmental and sociocultural psychology, psychotherapy, learning sciences and geronto-psychology. In particular, the book highlights semiotic processes, specific to human development, that allow us to draw upon past experiences, to choose among alternatives and to plan our futures. Imagination is an important outcome of semiotic processes and enables us to deal with daily constraints and transitions, and promotes the transformation of social representation and symbolic systems - giving each person a unique style, or 'melody', of living. The book concludes by questioning the methodology and epistemology of current life course studies.Developmental psychologyDevelopmental psychology.155Zittoun Tania1036006UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910829400303321Human development in the life course4054018UNINA03872nam 2200601 a 450 991073942280332120200520144314.01-299-19806-681-322-0981-810.1007/978-81-322-0981-2(CKB)2670000000328423(EBL)1083454(OCoLC)827212357(SSID)ssj0000879205(PQKBManifestationID)11482876(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000879205(PQKBWorkID)10850880(PQKB)10103658(DE-He213)978-81-322-0981-2(MiAaPQ)EBC1083454(PPN)168333163(EXLCZ)99267000000032842320130103d2013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrLiberalization, growth and regional disparities in India /Madhusudan Ghosh1st ed. 2013.New York Springer20131 online resource (236 p.)India studies in business and economics ;v. 1Description based upon print version of record.81-322-1741-1 81-322-0980-X Includes bibliographical references and index. Chapter1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Review of Economic Policies and Growth Performance -- Chapter 3: Regional Economic Growth and Inequality -- Chapter 4: Growth and Regional Divergence in Industry and Services -- Chapter 5: Growth and Regional Divergence in Agriculture -- Chapter 6: Structural Breaks and Performance in Agriculture -- Chapter 7: Growth and Structural Breaks in Food Grains Production -- Chapter 8: Spatial Efficiency in Regional Food Grain Markets -- Chapter 9: Inclusive Growth, Employment and Rural Poverty -- Chapter 10: Microfinance and Rural Poverty -- Chapter 11: Regional Disparities in Education, Health and Human Development.Upon the backdrop of impressive progress made by the Indian economy during the last two decades after the large-scale economic reforms in the early 1990s, this book evaluates the performance of the economy on some income and non-income dimensions of development at the national, state and sectoral levels. It examines regional economic growth and inequality in income originating from agriculture, industry and services. In view of the importance of the agricultural sector, despite its declining share in gross domestic product, it evaluates the performance of agricultural production and the impact of agricultural reforms on spatial integration of food grain markets. It studies rural poverty, analyzing the trend in employment, the trickle-down process and the inclusiveness of growth in rural India. It also evaluates the impact of microfinance, as an instrument of financial inclusion, on the socio-economic conditions of rural households. Lastly, it examines the relative performance of fifteen major states of India in terms of education, health and human development. An important feature of the book is that it approaches these issues, applying rigorously advanced econometric methods, and focusing primarily on their regional disparities during the post-reform period vis-à-vis the pre-reform period. It offers important results to guide policies for future development.India Studies in Business and Economics,2198-0012Regional disparitiesIndiaIndiaEconomic conditionsIndiaEconomic conditionsRegional disparitiesRegional disparities338.954Ghosh Madhusudan1424063MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910739422803321Liberalization, Growth and Regional Disparities in India3552937UNINA
