"The case studies in this book describe how clients' promotion of innovative communities of practice has led to important collections of architectural works. The book provides an assessment of the effectiveness of their approaches. Architects and clients will understand what to look for as they construct their careers and their portfolios with innovation as a goal. It is taken for granted nowadays that supporting innovative architecture benefits society. In countries as diverse as Austria, Australia, Belgium, England, Japan, South East Asia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland and the USA, retailers, institutions, local and regional government and transport authorities have established substantial bodies of work by new and emerging architects. This book looks at what their goals are and how they have achieved them. Is it possible to promote sustainable communities of innovative practice through such patronage? Can innovation be 'kick-started' by importing visionary works?"--Provided by publisher.Creation (Literary, artistic, etc.)ArchitectsPsychologyArchitectural designCreation (Literary, artistic, etc.)ArchitectsPsychology.Architectural design.720Van Schaik Leon892378London GeoffreyGeorge BethUkLoBPUkLoBPBOOK9910808302203321Procuring innovative architecture3936199UNINA03468nam 22005655 450 991100841890332120191126113341.09781501744747150174474710.7591/9781501744747(CKB)4100000009678039(DE-B1597)533898(OCoLC)1129181478(DE-B1597)9781501744747(MiAaPQ)EBC31211796(Au-PeEL)EBL31211796(EXLCZ)99410000000967803920191126d2019 fg engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBanking on Privilege The Politics of Spanish Financial Reform /Sofia Perez1st ed.Ithaca, NY : Cornell University Press, [2019]©19971 online resource (224 p.) 21 tables9780801433238 0801433231 Frontmatter -- Contents -- Tables -- Preface / Pérez, Sofía A. -- Introduction: Invisible Hand and Political Legacy -- 1.

The argument is clear, elegant, and subtle. My guess is that Banking on Privilege will quickly earn a place as one of the standards of comparative political economy.'-Peter McDonough, Arizona State University'This wonderfully researched study of the mutual accommodation between private and central bankers in Spain offers a compelling alternative to state and market-driven conceptions of financial regulation and reform. The author's careful theoretical crafting and mastery of historical detail assures this book a place beside the works by Zysman, Loriaux, Woo, and a few others on a narrow shelf of essential texts about the comparative political economy of financial systems. No serious observer of financial and monetary reform in Europe can afford to ignore this impressive book.'-Mauro F. Guillen, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania'This is a thoroughly researched and meticulously argued piece of scholarship that contributes much substance to our knowledge of finance and financial reform in other countries and brings many provocative ideas to theoretical debate.'-Michael Loriaux, Northwestern UniversityFinanceSpainFinancial institutionsDeregulationSpainFinancial institutionsSpainGeneral EconomicsHISTORY / Europe / Spain & PortugalbisacshFinanceFinancial institutionsDeregulationFinancial institutionsGeneral Economics.HISTORY / Europe / Spain & Portugal.332.1/0946Perez Sofia, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1826421DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9911008418903321Banking on Privilege4394411UNINA
