Podcasts about economic transformations

Christian is guest speaker on Dave Dias' Voice of Reason podcast. He reveals secrets and rare coin market insights.  Christian speaks about how he has been targeting the liberties and Indians, specifically the two and a half, the fives, the tens and the twenties, as they all have been moving higher in the past year or two. He says that you don't have to be a millionaire to buy these coins. They are all going up in value because rare coins always go up before a major recession, like what we're experiencing now. However, this is a transformation. It's not a recession. Wait till CBDC starts to become the law of the land globally which it will be and then these coins will continue to escalate even more.    Collectors don't have the same understanding and thought processes like an investor would. Now they may become investors down the road and that's great, but generally 8 out of ten people never become investors. Collectors pass the coins that they bought on to their next generation after they pass away, and that's what fundamentally keeps the price of this stuff going up all the time. Now, the beauty is that 80 to 90 percent of coin purchases has been emotional collector driven who give no wherewithal of what they're willing to pay. They'll just pay whatever it takes. It's been consistent now for over 50 years with these purchases.

Western non-governmental organizations such as the World Bank played a crucial role in China's economic reforms during the 1980s and 1990s. They facilitated dialogues between Chinese economists and their western counterparts, as well as brought in western known-how on free market economy to China, where Soviet-style planned economy had dominated the economic activities since the 1950s. In this podcast, Dr. Federico Pachetti (RECET) and Dr. Sheng Peng (RECET) discuss both the expectations and realities, which western NGOs faced during their participation in China's great economic transformations. Federico Pachetti is an associated researcher at RECET and a post-doctoral fellow at Corvinus Institute of Advanced Studies (CIAS), Budapest. Previously, he held positions at New York University (NYU) Shanghai and at London School of Economics (LSE). Federico researches and teaches 20th century international history, with a focus on how shifting dynamics in global political economy shaped the evolution of Sino-American relations during the final decades of the century.

"The internet is the world's largest library. It's just that all the books are on the floor." At first glance, you'd think the best-selling 20% of the products on sale in the internet are the ones that generate 80% of the revenue. In terms of profit, that might hold true, but when it comes to the overall turnover, it's the Long Tail that gets the last laugh. More about it all in this episode based on an excerpt from The Decision Book, by Mikael Krogerus and Roman Tschäppeler.

Episode 86: The Arab Transformations Project In this podcast, Professor Andrea Teti discusses the findings of the Arab Transformations Project. Led by Aberdeen University, the project carried out public surveys in seven Arab countries in late 2014 and compiled a longitudinal database. According to the survey data, Professor Andrea Teti examines the economic, social and political transformations in the region. The survey observations indicate challenging popular perceptions in relation to a broad range of topics such as: corruption, youth, democracy, migration, gender, religion, security and stability, and Eu-MENA relations.  The analysis of the surveys data shows that, contrary to popular belief, the 2011 Uprisings weren’t “youth revolution” but were rather carried out by protesters from all age groups and all sorts of social backgrounds. Data also reveals that people in the Arab world, have a holistic conception of democracy which extends its perception beyond narrow definitions based on free and fair elections to include both civil-political and socio-economic rights. Of all the factors associated with democracy, corruption is one of the most important variables that people are concerned with. In addition, the 2011 Uprisings provided a framework for examining issues that have been long linked to the Orientalist stereotypes about how the region is not suited to democracy, shifting attention to how effective the ongoing mass mobilization can be putting governments under pressure. The survey concludes that claims for both socio-economic and political inclusion are at the heart of the Arab Uprisings. Andrea Teti is Associate Professor of International Relations at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland. He is author of The Arab Uprisings in Egypt, Tunisia and Jordan: Social, Political and Economic Transformations (2018) with Pamela Abbott and Francesco Cavatorta, and his book Democratization Against Democracy: How the EU failed to learn from the Arab Uprisings with Pamela Abbott, Valeria Talbot and Paolo Maggiolini is forthcoming in 2020 by Palgrave. CEMAT Director, Dr. Laryssa Chomiak, led this interview, which was recorded on June 20, 2019, at the Centre d'Études Maghrébines à Tunis (CEMAT).

with Mostafa Minawihosted by Chris GratienThe Ottoman Empire occupies an unusual place among the competing imperial powers of the nineteenth century. On one hand, a weak military position often forced the Ottomans to accept unfavorable economic and political arrangements while playing other empires off each other to maintain autonomy. On the other, we find expansion of state institutions throughout the Ottoman domains and an increased Ottoman presence in many parts of Asia and the Indian Ocean. Many even point to a form of Ottoman colonialism practiced in the frontiers of the empire. In this episode, Mostafa Minawi offers a glimpse at Ottoman practices in the realm of strategic imperial diplomacy within the context of the Scramble for Africa and European competition over influence in Sub-Saharan Africa.  iTunesMostafa Minawi is an Assistant Professor of History at Cornell University.
