Título : Making Medicines in Africa : The Political Economy of Industrializing for Local Health Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Maureen Mackintosh ; SpringerLink (Online service) ; Geoffrey Banda ; Paula Tibandebage ; Watu Wamae Editorial: London : Palgrave Macmillan UK Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan Colección: International Political Economy Series Número de páginas: XXI, 334 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-137-54647-0 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Ethnology Africa Political economy International relations Pharmacology economics Economic policy Economics Policy Relations Pharmacology/Toxicology Economy African Culture Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: This book is open access under a CC-BY license. The importance of the pharmaceutical industry in Sub-Saharan Africa, its claim to policy priority, is rooted in the vast unmet health needs of the sub-continent. Making Medicines in Africa is a collective endeavour, by a group of contributors with a strong African and more broadly Southern presence, to find ways to link technological development, investment and industrial growth in pharmaceuticals to improve access to essential good quality medicines, as part of moving towards universal access to competent health care in Africa. The authors aim to shift the emphasis in international debate and initiatives towards sustained Africa-based and African-led initiatives to tackle this huge challenge. Without the technological, industrial, intellectual, organisational and research-related capabilities associated with competent pharmaceutical production, and without policies that pull the industrial sectors towards serving local health needs, the African sub-continent cannot generate the resources to tackle its populations' needs and demands. Research for this book has been selected as one of the 20 best examples of the impact of UK research on development.

Título : British Imperialism and the Making of Colonial Currency Systems Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Wadan Narsey ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: London : Palgrave Macmillan UK Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan Colección: Palgrave Studies in the History of Finance Número de páginas: XV, 356 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-137-55318-8 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Finance Finance--History Africa History Asia Great Britain Imperialism Financial African Asian of and Ireland Colonialism Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: Based on archival research covering more than two centuries and most former British colonies (West Indies, India, Singapore, Malaya, West Africa and East Africa), this book is a revisionist history of the British imperial manipulations of colonial currency systems to facilitate the rise of sterling to world supremacy via the gold standard, and to slow its eventual decline after World War II. Britain forcibly replaced international currencies, including gold and sterling itself, by new localised silver currencies, backed by gold and sterling reserves in London, under the total control of the British Treasury and the powerful influence of the Bank of England. Ignoring colonial needs, imperial decision-makers continuously over-ruled colonial governments, commercial interest in colonies (British and local), Colonial Office and the Crown Agents, to support liquidity in the London Money Market, convertibility of sterling, export of British capital, and cheap readily available finance for the British Government. Academia, including Keynes and institutions like the London School of Economics, are shown to have played supporting roles. This book is valuable reading for academics and students interested in theories of imperialism, colonial underdevelopment, money (national and international) and related topics such as currency areas and exchange rates. Its comprehensive index links monetary concepts to actual events in the British Empire, with pointers to new research areas. This account of the rise and fall of sterling as a world currency may have lessons for the future trajectories of the US dollar, Euro, Chinese renminbi and the Indian rupee En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1057/9781137553188 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=42035 British Imperialism and the Making of Colonial Currency Systems [documento electrónico] / Wadan Narsey ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - London : Palgrave Macmillan UK : Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan, 2016 . - XV, 356 p : online resource. - (Palgrave Studies in the History of Finance) .
