This book explores China's centrality to British imperial aspirations and literary production, underscoring the heterogeneous, interconnected nature of Britain's formal and informal empire. To British eyes, China promised unlimited economic possibilities, but also posed an ominous threat to global hegemony. Surveying anglophone literary production about China across high and low cultures, as well as across time, space and genres, this book demonstrates how important location was to the production, circulation and reception of received ideas about China and the Chinese. In this account, treaty ports matter more than opium. Ross Forman challenges our preconceptions about British imperialism, reconceptualizes anglophone literary production in the global and local contexts, and excavates the little-known Victorian history so germane to contemporary debates about China's 'rise'. 410 0$aCambridge studies in nineteenth-century literature and culture ;$v85. 517 3 $aChina & the Victorian Imagination 606 $aEnglish literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$xChinese influences 607 $aGreat Britain$xCivilization$xChinese influences 607 $aChina$xIn literature 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xChinese influences. 676 $a820.9/3251 700 $aForman$b Ross G.$01713072 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819520203321 996 $aChina and the Victorian imagination$94105742 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03077nam 2200577Ia 450 001 9910973682103321 005 20251117120104.0 010 $a1-280-08457-X 010 $a9786610084579 010 $a1-4175-4067-2 035 $a(CKB)1000000000004820 035 $a(OCoLC)70722952 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10062370 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000195153 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11203793 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000195153 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10241558 035 $a(PQKB)10893993 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3050150 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3050150 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10062370 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL8457 035 $a(OCoLC)922950952 035 $a(BIP)8806594 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000004820 100 $a20040926d2002 my 0 101 0 $aspa 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aMacroeconomia y salud $einvertir en salud en pro del desarrollo economico : informe de la Comision sobre Macroeconomia y Salud /$fpresidida por Jeffrey D.

En el presente informe se ofrecen las conclusiones de la Comisio?n y se describe una nueva estrategia de inversiones en salud para favorecer el desarrollo econo?mico en particular en los pai?ses ma?s pobres del mundo. Asimismo se propone una nueva alianza mundial entre los pai?ses en desarrollo y desarrollados y se afirma que una intervencio?n oportuna y decidida podri?a salvar cada an?o en los pai?ses en desarrollo para finales del decenio actual unos ocho millones de vidas que hoy se pierden por culpa de las enfermedades infecciosas y las afecciones maternas. Tambie?n podri?a aumentar la longevidad la productividad y el bienestar econo?mico de los pobres. Para lograr esos resultados sera?n necesarias no obstante dos importantes iniciativas: aumentar considerablemente los recursos que destinan en la actualidad al sector de la salud los pai?ses en desarrollo y los donantes y solucionar los obsta?culos no financieros que han limitado la capacidad de los pai?ses pobres para prestar servicios de salud. 606 $aPublic health administration 606 $aHealth services administration 615 0$aPublic health administration. 615 0$aHealth services administration. 701 $aSachs$b Jeffrey$0120952 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973682103321 996 $aMacroeconomia y salud$94476443 997 $aUNINA
