This Compendium was conceived as a “pocket compass”, a practical guide that may help readers to orientate themselves while they explore global affairs and attempt to make sense of the highly interconnected, multidimensional challenges of contemporary human development.

Dr. Edoardo Monaco's holistic understanding of global dynamics is the combined result of his rich and diverse academic background - spanning from law to international relations, from development economics to international management and sustainability - and his extensive international experience. Besides studying across Italy (Bologna), France (ICN), the USA (Harvard), the UK (Cambridge, Oxford), and China (Yunnan), Dr. Monaco has lived for almost two decades in Asia, working - both within and beyond academia - and conducting research in a vast array of locations, including China, Bhutan, India, Korea, Sri Lanka, Thailand, the Philippines, as well as Central and Eastern Africa. His teaching and research interests broadly concern the political economy of development, sustainability, and the rise of the Global South, with particular regard to holistic development paradigms and their measurement, sustainable economic growth, diversification, and inclusion. Dr. Monaco currently servesas Associate Professor at the Globalisation and Development (GAD) Programme and as Associate Head of Department at the Department of Social Sciences (DSS), Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (FHSS), Beijing Normal University - Hong Kong Baptist University United International College (BNU-HKBU UIC) in Zhuhai, Guangdong Province, China. Since 2020, he has also held the role of assessor within the Business Sustainability Management online programme of GetSmarter and Cambridge University's Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL). From 2021, he has been a member of the China Association for the Club of Rome. Dr. Monaco's articles and op-eds have featured on multiple global media platforms, and he regularly collaborates with intergovernmental organisations, international think tanks, and consulting firms.

Buch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This Compendium was conceived as a 'pocket compass', a practical guide that may help readers to orientate themselves while they explore global affairs and attempt to make sense of the highly interconnected, multidimensional challenges of contemporary human development. The book is intended to be an accessible, concise, yet comprehensive reference for anyone who hopes to better understand today's world and its dramatic complexity. The aim is to highlight a relevant selection of the demographic, socio-economic, geo-political, and environmental macro-dynamics that define our time, and to explore in a practical way the indicators that can be used to monitor their evolution over time. In general, this project stems from the need to apply 'systemic thinking' to the study of the world and to develop a holistic perspective that can bridge the gap that for too long has existed across academic disciplines and their respective focuses. The macro-trends featured in the book shed light, in particular, on the change that has been occurring over time in the vast Global South - a portion of the globe that accounts for over 80% of the world's total population. The book's ultimate - although not exclusive - target audience is undoubtedly composed of undergraduate students of subjects such as political science, international affairs, international development, human geography and the like. In addition, the Compendium may benefit professionals in both public and private organisations as well as members of the general public seeking to acquire 'global development literacy' in manners that are academically sound, but also accessible and concise. 208 pp. Englisch.
