Off-Grid Solar Electrification in Africa: A Critical Perspective (Energy, Climate and the Environment)
by Nathanael OjongThis book evaluates off-grid solar electrification in Africa by examining how political, economic, institutional, and social forces shape the adoption of off-grid solar technologies, including how issues of energy injustice are manifested at different levels and spaces. The book takes a historical, contemporary, and projective outlook using case studies from pre- and ongoing electrification communities in non-Western countries such as Ghana, Kenya, Rwanda, Senegal, Malawi, Tanzania, and Nigeria. Beyond the diverse nature of these countries in terms of their geographical location in West, East, and Southern Africa, each offers a different experience in terms of colonial history, economic and institutional infrastructure, social and cultural context, and level of adoption of off-grid solar technologies. Notably, the book contributes to the off-grid solar and energy justice scholarship in low-income non-Western contexts. It examines various approaches to energy justice and does so by engaging with Western and non-Western philosophical notions of the concept. It takes into consideration the major principles of Ubuntu philosophy with the adoption of off-grid solar technologies, hence enriching the energy justice framework. Finally, the book interrogates the degree to which the social mission that catalysed the expansion of the off-grid solar sector is being undermined by broader structural dynamics of the capital investment upon which it is reliant. It also argues that the ascendance of off-grid solar electrification in Africa is transformative in that it enables millions of people without access to or facing uncertainties linked to centralised grid energy to have access to basic energy services.
Off Headset: Essays On Stage Management Work Life And Career (Backstage)
by Rafael Jaen Christopher SadlerOff Headset is a collection of chapters containing essays by a richly diverse group of stage management professionals and educators covering the challenges stage managers face on the job, in their lives, and in their careers. The book starts with the intersectional history of stage managers and the actors' union. In "Part 1: Work," the contributors share a wide range of experiences, from regional theatre and Broadway to operas and cruises—and even running with the circus. The essays in "Part 2: Life" explore the relevance of stage managers claiming their identity, their resilience, and practicing self-care. Finally, in "Part 3: Career," readers receive aspirational and business advice for life in the real world: leadership, networking, unemployment, managing demanding calendars, and career planning. The book ends with a moment of pause during tech—a direct response to the absence we have been enduring throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and a tribute to a world we used to take for granted. Intertwining practical advice with personal anecdotes, Off Headset: Essays on Stage Management Work, Life, and Career is the perfect accompaniment to students studying stage management in a university setting and professionals working in the field.

Off the Books: Understanding and Mitigating the Fiscal Risks of Infrastructure (Sustainable Infrastructure)
by Matías Herrera Dappe Vivien Foster Aldo Musacchio Ter-MinassianDeveloping countries face massive infrastructure needs, but public spending on infrastructure is inadequate, and public investment has been declining in recent years. Rising debt levels and tightening fiscal and monetary conditions are putting further pressure on the funds available for infrastructure, heightening the importance of increasing the efficiency of infrastructure spending. Off the Books: Understanding and Mitigating the Fiscal Risks of Infrastructure shows that however governments deliver infrastructure—through direct public provision, state-owned enterprises (SOEs), or public-private partnerships (PPPs), the risk of fiscal surprises is high in both good times and bad. As a result, infrastructure service delivery often ends up costing significantly more than expected, eroding limited fiscal space for productive spending. This book makes a unique contribution by quantifying the magnitude and prevalence of fiscal risks from electricity and transport infrastructure and identifying their root causes across a range of low- and middle-income countries. Drawing on important new sources of evidence and compiling many others, the analysis sheds light on how much is at stake in the good governance of infrastructure sectors. It allows policy makers to weigh the magnitudes of different types of risks and examine how they vary across contexts. Off the Books shows how a deeper understanding of the fiscal risks of infrastructure can help policy makers target reforms to areas where they can be expected to have the greatest impact. It lays out a reform agenda for mitigating the fiscal risks associated with infrastructure based on building government capacity; adopting integrated public investment management and integrated fiscal risk management; improving fiscal and corporate governance of SOEs; and ensuring robust PPP preparation, procurement, and contract management. The book will be of enormous value to policy makers, practitioners, and academics who have an interest in infrastructure and fiscal policy.
Off the Clock: Feel Less Busy While Getting More Done
by Laura Vanderkam"I well recall a conversation with an executive I hoped to interview about her astonishing productivity. I began our call with an assurance that I would not take much of her time. She laughed. 'Oh, I have all the time in the world,' she said."Most of us feel constantly behind, unsure how to escape feeling oppressed by busyness. Laura Vanderkam, unlike other time-management gurus, believes that in order to get more done, we must first feel like we have all the time in the world. Think about it: why haven't you trained for that 5K or read War and Peace? Probably because you feel beaten down by all the time you don't seem to have.In this book, Vanderkam reveals the seven counterintuitive principles the most time-free people have adopted. She teaches mindset shifts to help you feel calm on the busiest days and tools to help you get more done without feeling overwhelmed. You'll meet people such as... ♦ An elementary school principal who figured out how to spend more time mentoring teachers, and less time supervising the cafeteria ♦ An executive who builds lots of meeting-free space into his calendar, despite managing teams across multiple continents ♦ A CEO who does focused work in a Waffle House early in the morning, so he can keep an open door and a relaxed mindset all day ♦ An artist who overcame a creative block, and reached new heights of productivity, by being more gentle with herself, rather than more demandingThe strategies in this book can help if your life feels out of control, but they can also help if you want to take your career, your relationships, and your personal happiness to the next level. Vanderkam has packed this book with insights from busy yet relaxed professionals, including "time makeovers" of people who are learning how to use these tools. Off the Clock can inspire the rest of us to create lives that are not only productive, but enjoyable in the moment.

by Craig GordonA Wall Street maverick shows investors how to find the next Home Depot, Cisco, or Microsoft -- before the Wall Street establishment.

Öffentliche Finanzen und Verhaltensökonomik: Zur Psychologie der budgetwirksamen Staatstätigkeit
by Thomas DöringDieses Buch beantwortet die Frage, in welchem Umfang der noch junge Ansatz der Verhaltensökonomik zu einer Erweiterung des bisherigen Erkenntnisstandes der Finanzwissenschaft beitragen kann.

Öffentliche Übernahme durch Anschleichen unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Meldepflichten nach dem WpHG
by Marc HolfterFür Außenstehende überraschende Übernahmen von börsennotierten Unternehmen, denen eine geheime Anteilsaufstockung vorausgeht, haben in jüngster Vergangenheit immer wieder für Diskussionen gesorgt; genannt sei hier nur das Beispiel von Schaeffler und Continental. Uneinigkeit herrscht insbesondere darüber, ob und gegebenenfalls wie weit ein solches Vorgehen mit dem geltenden Recht in Einklang steht. Dieser äußerst praxisrelevanten Problematik an der Schnittstelle von Übernahme- und Kapitalmarktrecht widmet sich das vorliegende Buch. Nach einer kurzen Einführung werden die beiden Erscheinungsformen des Unternehmenskaufs, die öffentliche Übernahme nach dem Wertpapiererwerbs- und Übernahmegesetz (WpÜG) und sonstige Unternehmenskäufe, vorgestellt. Die folgenden Kapitel wenden sich speziellen Fragen zum Anschleichen bei öffentlichen Übernahmen zu: Sowohl etwaige Verstöße gegen die Ad-hoc-Publizität und gegen das Insiderrecht als auch melderechtliche Aspekte, die immer wieder Gegenstand gesetzlicher Anpassungen sind, werden ausführlich diskutiert. Berücksichtigung finden dabei dogmatische ebenso wie pragmatische Gesichtspunkte. Konkrete Empfehlungen zum Vorgehen besonders bei öffentlichen Übernahmen runden die Darstellung ab.
