Korean Economic Growth, 1876 - 2022: Openness, Institutional Change, and Learning
English | 2025 | ISBN: 9819648319 | 357 Pages | PDF (True) | 23 MB
This book provides the first comprehensive explanation of Korea's 150 years of economic growth, from the opening of the ports to the present, based on consistently organized long-term statistics. The book also compares Korea's experience with that of other countries. During this period, Korea experienced major systemic transitions, from a traditional society to colonial rule, and after liberation, the division between North and South Korea. East Asian latecomer nations, including Korea, rapidly closed the gap with advanced countries through learning and adaptation following their opening to the world. The book uses Korea's case to demonstrate how institutional changes influence economic performance and explain the conditions under which rapid catch-up growth can occur or fail to occur. Korea's high growth was achieved under an authoritarian regime with state-led industrial policies. As the limitations of this model became evident, Korea transitioned to a private-sector-led approach, facing economic crises in the process. Economic growth led to the rise of a highly educated middle class. This, in turn, surfaced demands that had been suppressed under the authoritarian regime, paving the way for democratization. Social development and fairness, long overshadowed by economic growth, became key policy agendas. Following the 1997 Asian financial crisis, Korea has faced the dual challenges of slow growth and rising inequality, driving increased calls for income redistribution and the establishment of a Korean-style welfare state. The book is divided into two parts. Part 1 explores long-term trends in Korea's economic growth, comparing them with other countries. Part 2 provides a detailed, stage-by-stage analysis, highlighting the specific institutional and policy changes that shaped Korea's development.

L. S. Vygotsky, "L. S. Vygotsky's Pedological Works, Volume 3: Pedology of the Adolescent I: Pedology in the Transitional Age "
English | ISBN: 9811929718 | 2022 | 239 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
This book contains the first complete translation of the first half of the Pedology of the Adolescent by the Soviet thinker, educator, and teacher L.S. Vygotsky. It was the longest work published in his lifetime and was a correspondence course written by Vygotsky for teachers across the Soviet Union. The book is a sustained argument about the borders of pedology, the nature of the transition between childhood and adulthood, and the concrete character of the distinction between the lower psychological functions that we largely share with animals and those that are specific to fully socialized humans. After an initial methodological introduction, three kinds of maturation―general anatomical, sexual, and sociocultural―are explored.

This book will be followed by a companion volume covering pedology of the transitional age as a psychological and social problem.

L. S. Vygotsky, "L. S. Vygotsky's Pedological Works, Volume 4: Pedology of the Adolescent II: Pedology of the Transitional Age as a Psych"
English | ISBN: 9819715369 | 2024 | 406 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
This book contains a new translation of the second half of the Pedology of the Adolescent by the renowned Soviet thinker, educator and teacher L.S. Vygotsky. It was a correspondence course written by Vygotsky for teachers across the Soviet Union, and it constitutes the longest work published in his lifetime. Four chapters have never been translated before and appear here for the very first time. With this volume, Vygotsky concludes the sustained argument he commenced in Vol. 3 Pedology of the Adolescent I: Pedology in the Transitional Age, establishing the borders of pedology, the nature of the transition between childhood and adulthood, and the concrete nature of the distinction between the lower psychological functions we largely have in common with animals and those that are specific to fully social humans. In this volume Vygotsky "puts flesh on the skeleton" of his working hypothesis concerning the interests and the development of concepts in the psychology of the adolescent. He then frames concepts as a special case of developing higher psychological functions, and demonstrates the roots of that development in the social environment. Many of the problems Vygotsky broaches in these new chapters-the choice of a profession, the initiation of the adolescent into working life-are still of immediate, not to say urgent, relevance today. The volume concludes with a remarkable vision of a society "where production is organized for the producers" that still seems far ahead of its time and still ahead of our own.

Laboratories of Social Knowledge: How International Organizations Construct Social Policy Through Numbers
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031891783 | 434 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 4 MB
The book examines the politics of knowledge in global social policy, investigating how international organisations (IOs) have contributed to the emergence and development of social security as a global policy field. It reconstructs the role of numerical knowledge in the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the World Bank, theorising how IOs contribute to epistemic infrastructures of global social security. The book shows how IOs' knowledge production has led to a continuous refinement of the meaning and purpose of social security. First, it reveals how IOs arrived at a shared conception of social security: what the book calls an ontological framework. Second, it traces how numbers have increasingly enabled the assessment of countries according to shared benchmarks: what the book calls an evaluative framework. The author demonstrates the political and epistemic work involved in universalising knowledge of social security, while highlighting the limits of governing by numbers in global social policy.

Language and Aging in Multilingual Contexts By Kees de Bot; Sinfree Makoni
2005 | 168 Pages | ISBN: 1853598410 | PDF | 1 MB
"In research on language and aging there are traditionally two streams, one that focuses on language spoken in interaction with elderly people ('elderspeak') and one that focuses on language skills in the elderly. In this book we present a dynamic systems perspective on language and aging looking at language in aging as a normal process of development based on internal changes in the individual and changes in the environment. This interaction between individual and environment defines how language changes and how these changes have impacts on other facets of life and cognitive functioning. There is not much research on language and aging in multilingual individuals and multilingual societies and in this book most of the recent research is discussed along with a number of projects involving different language groups in the US."--BOOK JACKET.

Language and Culture : Global Flows and Local Complexity By Karen Risager
2006 | 226 Pages | ISBN: 1853598593 | PDF | 1 MB
The book presents a new theory of the relationship between language and culture in a transnational and global perspective. The fundamental view is that languages spread across cultures, and cultures spread across languages, or in other words, that linguistic and cultural practices flow through social networks in the world along partially different paths and across national structures and communities.

Damien Mooney, "Language and Dialect Death: Theorising Sound Change in Obsolescent Gascon"
English | ISBN: 303151100X | 2024 | 242 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
This book offers a systematic acoustic phonetic analysis of both language and dialect death in the region of Béarn, southwestern France. Focusing on Béarnais, a localised dialect of Gascon which is under pressure from French, the author explores the socio-political process of language shift, whereby members of a speech community cease to speak their indigenous language in favour of an incoming dominant language. Gascon is at an advanced stage of this process, making its remaining speakers excellent candidates for the study of language obsolescence, and this unique study will be of interest to researchers working in a broad range of disciplines, including language variation and change, language and dialect contact, Occitan and French, sociophonetics and phonology.

Language Diversity, School Learning, and Closing Achievement Gaps : A Workshop Summary By National Research Council; Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education; Center for Education; Committee on the Role of Language in School Learning: Implications for Closing the Achievement Gap; Melissa Welch-Ross
2010 | 115 Pages | ISBN: 0309153867 | PDF | 1 MB
The Workshop on the Role of Language in School Learning: Implications for Closing the Achievement Gap was held to explore three questions: What is known about the conditions that affect language development? What are the effects of early language development on school achievement? What instructional approaches help students meet school demands for language and reading comprehension? Of particular interest was the degree to which group differences in school achievement might be attributed to language differences, and whether language-related instruction might help to close gaps in achievement by helping students cope with language-intensive subject matter especially after the 3rd grade. The workshop provided a forum for researchers and practitioners to review and discuss relevant research findings from varied perspectives. The disciplines and professions represented included: language development, child development, cognitive psychology, linguistics, reading, educationally disadvantaged student populations, literacy in content areas (math, science, social studies), and teacher education. The aim of the meeting was not to reach consensus or provide recommendations, but rather to offer expert insight into the issues that surround the study of language, academic learning, and achievement gaps, and to gather varied viewpoints on what available research findings might imply for future research and practice. This book summarizes and synthesizes two days of workshop presentations and discussion.

Samia Bazzi, "Language in a Failed State: Public Discourse in the Lebanese Crisis"
English | ISBN: 3031669991 | 2024 | 162 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
This book examines public, political and media discourse in the context of failed states using Lebanon, a country torn by wars and political-financial corruption, as a contemporary case study. Using critical discourse analysis (CDA), the author brings political and economic theories into dialogue with socio-linguistics to argue that public discourse in a failed state not only plays a role in that collapse but is a key presenting symptom of social disintegration. Through CDA, the book makes this phenomenon visible, and contributes to existing definitions of the concept "failed" or "fragile" state. In addition, the qualitative data and analysis provided offer a tool to assess a state's vulnerability to collapse. The book also expands the sociolinguistic model to eavesdrop on the zeitgeist of the nation in order to examine the degrees of social cohesion, sectarianism and bonding. This book will be of interest to discourse analysts, journalists, politicians, policy-makers, and economists.

Language Policy
by Florian Coulmas
English | 2025 | ISBN: 0192874217 | 225 pages | True PDF | 8.44 MB

This book offers an accessible introduction to the main issues in language policy today, and to the origins and conceptual foundations of the relationship between language and the state. Florian Coulmas draws on specific examples from around the world to explore how countries make decisions about which language - and which variety or form of that language - should be used for key functions such as primary education, government administration, and the law. The book provides historical background to shed light on present-day policy disputes concerning language, and looks at how the resulting decisions are implemented in schools and other institutions. A common thread that runs through the chapters is the question of whether the involvement of the government in language regulation is a necessity, a blessing, or a curse. Written in a concise and engaging style, Language Policy: A Slim Guide is suitable for readers from all backgrounds who are interested in the interaction between language and politics.
