 Governmental Intervention in Foreign Trade in Archaic and Classical Greece By Errietta M. A. Bissa 2009 | 266 Pages | ISBN: 9004175040 | PDF | 3 MB Trade was a necessity in the ancient Greek world, yet the prevalent scholarly view is that Greek states intervened in foreign trade only rarely and sporadically. This book studies four necessary commodities, gold, silver, ship-building timber and grain, from production through export to import. Through the re-evaluation of known evidence and the presentation of new avenues of research, the book shows that Greek and non-Greek governments in the archaic and classical periods intervened and involved themselves greatly in foreign trade. The book offers the student of the Greek economy a fresh perspective on state intervention in trade and the ways in which intervention worked in the Greek world.  Kevin McGillivray, "Government Cloud Procurement: Contracts, Data Protection, and the Quest for Compliance" English | ISBN: 1108837670 | 2021 | 300 pages | MOBI | 1377 KB In Government Cloud Procurement, Kevin McGillivray explores the question of whether governments can adopt cloud computing services and still meet their legal requirements and other obligations to citizens. The book focuses on the interplay between the technical properties of cloud computing services and the complex legal requirements applicable to cloud adoption and use. The legal issues evaluated include data privacy law (GDPR and the US regime), jurisdictional issues, contracts, and transnational private law approaches to addressing legal requirements. McGillivray also addresses the unique position of governments when they outsource core aspects of their information and communications technology to cloud service providers. His analysis is supported by extensive research examining actual cloud contracts obtained through Freedom of Information Act requests. With the demand for cloud computing on the rise, this study fills a gap in legal literature and offers guidance to organizations considering cloud computing.  Governing the Heroin Trade (Law Ethics and Governance) By Melissa Bull 2008 | 202 Pages | ISBN: 0754671216 | PDF | 2 MB This book analyses the historical, economic and political context for the current prohibition of particular drugs. The study investigates the problem of drug control providing a systematic analysis of the development of the international system of regulation. Identifying the political rationalities that provided the basis of that system, it positions these moral justifications for exercising power in relation to the practical programs that put them into practice. The objective of the work is not simply to catalogue the techniques and strategies employed in the process of governing illicit drugs, but also to note the failures, unintended consequences and other difficulties associated with getting such programs to work.  Governing from Below: Urban Regions and the Global Economy By Jefferey M. Sellers 2002 | 420 Pages | ISBN: 0521651530 | PDF | 5 MB Cities play a growing role in governing. This new role fits within a context that nation-states, global market forces and cities themselves continue to define. The analysis of this book focuses on how local efforts in the distinct European systems of France and Germany as well as American counterparts have provided for environmental quality and social inclusion alongside local economic development. Only in certain European settings has policy making at multiple levels accomplished all three objectives at once. In those settings, effective governance from below has relied on adequate support from higher levels of governments and a favorable position in the global economy.
