From Central Asia the plague swept through Europe, leaving millions of dead in its wake. Between a quarter and a third of Europe's population died. In England the population fell from nearly six million to just over three million. The Black Death was the greatest demographic disaster in European history. Sean Martin looks at the origins of the disease and traces its terrible march through Europe from the Italian cities to the far-flung corners of Scandinavia. 606 $aBlack Death$zEurope 606 $aCommunicable diseases$zEurope 607 $aEurope$xSocial conditions$yTo 1492 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBlack Death 615 0$aCommunicable diseases 676 $a614.573209023 676 $a616.9232 700 $aMartin$b Sean$0858153 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451370303321 996 $aThe black death$92466695 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04749nam 2200541 450 001 9910465999203321 005 20170920005135.0 010 $a1-78635-383-0 035 $a(CKB)3710000000829135 035 $a(EBL)4635200 035 $a(OCoLC)956520872 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4635200 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000829135 100 $a20160902h20162016 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 00$aAccountability and social responsibility $einternational perspectives /$fedited by David Crowther, Linne Marie Lauesen 210 1$aBingley, England :$cEmerald,$d2016. 210 4$dİ2016 215 $a1 online resource (268 p.) 225 1 $aDevelopments in Corporate Governance and Responsibility ;$vVolume 9 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-78635-384-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters. 327 $aFront Cover; Accountability and Social Responsibility: International Perspectives; Copyright Page; Contents; List of Contributors; Introduction: Sustainability and Social Responsibility; Notes; References; Part I: Issues of Governance; Organisational Governance and Strategic CSR to Strengthen Local Supply Chains - Navigating the Maze; Introduction; Governance Structures in Businesses; Sustainable Supply Chain Management and CSR; Strengthening Local Supply Chains through Strategic CSR; Governance, Supply Chain Management and CSR in Developing Countries 327 $aLocal Businesses in Supply Chains of MNEs - CSR 4.0Agriculture; Cassava Production; Sorghum Cultivation in Uganda; Mining; Diamond Mining in Botswana; Diamond Mining in Namibia; Iron Ore Mining in Guinea; Promoting Stronger Supply Chains for Strengthened Organisational Governance; Notes; References; The Governance of Sustainable Development; Introduction; Sustainability in the Present; The Brundtland Report; Global Warming; Resource Depletion; Sustainability and Sustainable Development; Renewable Energy; Energy Efficiency; Critiquing Sustainability 327 $aReacting to Sustainability: Energy EfficiencyStandardisation and Manufacturing; Conclusions; Notes; References; The Role of the (Governance of the) Arts in Cultural Sustainability: A Case Study of Music; Introduction; Cultural Sustainability and the Role of the (Governance of the) Arts; The Role of the (Governance of the) Arts in Cultural Sustainability; Music: An Example of How the Role of (the Governance of the) Art Is Perceived and Its Relation to Cultural Sustainability; Summing Up; Critical Assessment; Conclusion: Suggestions and Recommendations; Notes; References 327 $aOrganisational Governance and Accountability: Do We Have Anything to Learn from Studying African Traditional Societies?Introduction; Reasons for Comparing African Traditional with Western Systems; Increase in Knowledge; Problems with Knowledge Produced by Social Anthropologists; Problems with Knowledge Produced Regarding Western Organisational Systems; African Traditional Systems as an Exemplar for Western Organisational Systems; African Traditional Systems as an Exemplar for Contemporary African Societies 327 $aDifficulties in Pursuing Comparisons between African Traditional Systems and Western Organisational SystemsValidity in Comparisons between African Traditional Systems and Organisational Systems in the West; Reliability of Western Scholarship about African Traditional Societies; Difficulties of Comparing Different Societies: Context and History; Scholarship Required; Current Knowledge of Traditional African Societies; Ways Forward: Comparisons regarding Accountability; Western Systems; African Traditional Systems; Ways Forward: Comparisons regarding African and English Systems of Justice 327 $aConclusion 330 $aThis book investigates how organizational governance is formed around socially responsible and accountable ways of leadership and management.
