The Politics and Culture of Globalisation

Aid, Service Delivery, And The Millennium Development Goals In An Economy-Wide Framework
"In many developing countries, achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015 will require significant increases in expenditures on social services and in foreign assistance. It will also require careful planning of the sector allocation and sequencing of public spending. Especially for low-income countries, the challenges of the MDGs cannot be well understood unless sector issues are seen in the context of constraints at the macro lev…
The Bio-economy and the Competition State
This article examines the role of the state in the emerging bio-economy. The starting point is that state interventions, including supportive regulatory arrangements and the shaping of public attitudes, constitute core assets in the evolution of bioindustrial complexes. Public policy in the bio-economy, across advanced industrial countries, is well captured by the “competition state” concept. This type of state takes different forms, analogously …

Pharmaceutical Benefits in Australia and Sweden
Pharmaceutical benefits provide a stable framework within which consumers, prescribers, suppliers, pharmacists and other actors undertake transactions. The state in effect delivers a good that enhances individual autonomy. A major reason for the legitimacy enjoyed by pharmaceutical benefits in both Australia and Sweden is that these programs have strong attributes of universalism (rather than targeting). Sweden's predominantly public health syste…

Representing America
For the literary scholar, inquiry into the remythologizing of may well be formulated as a question about representation, a question not only about what but also whose representations and who is affirmed as representative. In considering how America is being represented in current literature and literary criticism, especially in the canon debate, I will be concerned in this essay not so much with images of new American realities but with the produ…
Projecting a Model of Semiotic Change
form of labor power, so prominently analyzed by Marx, is a key feature of capitalist society. With regard to the interaction of subjects at the existential level, or exchange, we encounter first the question of who will occupy the position that favors expression, or extrinsic value, on the one hand, and the position that favors content, or intrinsic value, on the other. Any act of exchange involves the opposition between expression and content, o…
Economic Policy in Egypt
In the first half of the 1970s, Egypt turned away from the Soviet Union and initiated an economic open-door policy. Since then, the United States, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the World Bank have encouraged comprehensive reforms that would make Egypt an outward-looking market-oriented capitalist economy in which the private sector plays a dominant role. While the Egyptian economy had gone in that direction between 1974 and 1990, it …
