Описание: Charting the Economy assesses the course of Malayas commodity-dependent economy during the first 40 years of the 20th century under British colonial control, contrasting it with economic growth and development in contemporary Malaysia. Drawing on archival documents to derive estimates of Malayas GDP and analysing trends, it breaks new ground in understanding the dynamics of economic performance. In the first half of the 20th century, the Malay Peninsula, like much of Southeast Asia, was under colonial rule. Colonialism facilitated the control of lands, institutions and peoples, as well as the exploitation of natural resources. Malayas economy was largely agrarian, supported by two primary commodity pillarstin and rubberproduced to meet the needs of the industries and people in Europe and North America. Sultan Nazrin Shah eloquently articulates how the economy rode a commodity roller-coaster. Being small and open, it was exceedingly vulnerable to external cyclical shocksWorld War I (19141918), the Roaring Twenties (19201929), and the Great Depression (19291932)which were the main causes of economic booms and busts. This book makes a compelling case that the colonial laissez-faire economic system worked well for the agency houses that repatriated huge profits but paid small dividends to the masses. Development was highly uneven, with growth and prosperity concentrated in and benefiting the Peninsulas west coast states, where most of the tin mines and rubber plantations were located. After independence, national control over economic management was accompanied by a long-term vision for a socially just nation. Real GDP growth in post-independence Malaysia brought rapid advances in standards of living.
In der kontrastiven Linguistik Englisch-Deutsch gibt es bisher Vergleiche auf den Ebenen der Grammatik und in geringerem Umfang der Lexik und der Phonetik. Was den Bereich von Text und Diskurs angeht, so finden wir eine breite Literatur zu kohasiven Mustern in den Einzelsprachen Englisch und Deutsch - aber sehr wenig zum Kohasionsvergleich. Letzteres aber ist von betrachtlichem Interesse fur Sprach- und Ubersetzungsdidaktik, und naturlich fur Sprachwissenschaft und Sprachtechnologie.
In der hier beschriebenen Monographie wird der Versuch unternommen, die erwahnte Forschungslucke zu schlie?en. Der prasentierte Vergleich von Textmustern im Englischen und Deutschen ist das Ergebnis mehrjahriger empirischer Arbeiten zu Variation und Kohasion in den beiden Sprachen. Dabei liegt der Schwerpunkt auf dem Sprachkontrast, daneben aber auch auf sprachinterner Register- und Modusvariation. Fur alle funf Haupttypen von Kohasion (Koreferenz, Substitution, Ellipse, Konnexion und lexikalische Kohasion) werden Vergleiche auf Systemebene, aber auch von Frequenzen im Text vorgenommen.
Ergebnisse und Methodik der hier beschriebenen Arbeit sollten von Interesse sein fur Sprach- und Ubersetzungsdidaktik, daruber hinaus aber ganz allgemein fur korpusbasierte Forschung zum Deutschen und Englischen.

In the course of fifteen momentous years, the Spanish- and the Portuguese-American empires that had endured for three centuries came to an end in the mid-1820s. How did this come about? Not all Latin Americans desired such a change, and the independence wars were civil wars, often cruel and always violent. What social and economic groups lined up on one side or the other? Were there variations from place to place, region to region? Did men and women differ in their experience of war? How did Indians and blacks participate and how did they fare as a result? In the end, who won and who lost?
Independence in Latin America is about the reciprocal effect of war and social dislocation. It also demonstrates that the war itself led to national identity and so to the creation of new states. These governments generally acknowledged the novel principle of constitutionalism and popular sovereignty, even when sometimes carving out exceptions to such rules. The notion that society consisted of individuals and was not a body made up of castes, guilds, and other corporate orders had become commonplace by the end of these wars. So international politics and military confrontations are only part of the intriguing story recounted here.
For this third edition, Richard Graham has written a new introduction and extensively revised and updated the text. He has also added new illustrations and maps.
