Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Erik Gustaf Geijer (1783-1847) shared with David Hume, Adam Smith, Edmund Burke, and Alexis de Tocqueville a spiritual approach to human existence. Geijer well understood the wider European conversation that was taking place, but he wrote in Swedish and for Swedes. He wrote as an esteemed professor and cultural luminary.Into the 1830s, Geijer, in his fifties, had long been regarded as a nationalist influenced by German idealism and romanticism. After age 50, Geijer's liberalism became more pronounced. In 1838 Geijer announced to his public that he had revised his thinking and worldview and had gone over to liberalism. 'An Economic Dream,' contained in this volume, was a short essay he published in 1847, shortly before his death, and it expresses Geijer's humanism and liberalism. Whether Geijer's new open stance in favor of liberalism was really at odds with his concern for solidifying and stabilizing the Swedish nation is a matter for consideration. Throughout his writings, Geijer gives Christianity a central place and importance, including in his essay on slavery, contained in this volume.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book is based on an institutional evolutionary theoretical view to the Göta kanal. Canals were the major transport infrastructure system besides roads and maritime transport until railroads were introduced. The canal studied is the Swedish Göta kanal project during the preparation and construction phase from 1800-1832. Thus, the Göta kanal, and the canal-era, is seen from a technological, an economic and a political perspective. Comparisons are made with two contemporary major canal-projects; the Erie Canal in the USA (1817-1825) and the Caledonian Canal in Britain (1804-1822). It is argued that the Göta kanal project, as Sweden's Mega Project of its time, represented an important development step in Sweden as regards learning and innovation and became a starting point for Swedish transport infrastructure projects in the time to come, primarily the railways.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book discusses the economics of transport infrastructure and the economic theorizing around transport infrastructure from 1850 to today. Transport infrastructure systems are continuously evolving over time. Since the mid-1800s these systems have grown in complexity and outreach. They have been important drivers of economic development but have also been important as economic agents in themselves. Over time transport infrastructure systems have taken on different functions as providers of simpler transport services or more developed value chain components. Transport infrastructure has also been a source for different arguments about economic theory and practice.Transport infrastructure systems are analysed from an institutional perspective where the long-term development of the ownership and financing of the systems, as well as the connection to different policy areas are elaborated. A longitudinal study of Sweden's transport infrastructurepolicy is used to exemplify driving factors causing change and transformation of the systems over time with different scale and scope.…
