Zustand: Very Good. : En 'Helping People Help Themselves', David Ellerman presenta un profundo marco teórico para una filosofía del desarrollo, ofreciendo a su vez una sugerencia descriptiva y práctica sobre cómo se pueden establecer y alcanzar mejor los objetivos del desarrollo. Ellerman argumenta que la mejor estrategia para el desarrollo es una reducción drástica de la asistencia para el desarrollo, trasladando la iniciativa de los ayudantes a los receptores del desarrollo. El autor presenta varios métodos para cambiar la iniciativa que son indirectos, habilitadores y respetuosos de la autonomía. Figuras representativas en los campos de la educación, la organización comunitaria, el desarrollo económico, la psicoterapia y la teoría de la gestión demuestran cómo los temas principales de la asistencia a la autonomía entre las personas son esencialmente los mismos.

Hardbound. Zustand: As New. New. Contents Foreword by Albert O. Hirschman. Preface. 1. Introduction and overview. 2. Internal and external motivation beyond Homo Economics. 3. The indirect approach. 4. Indirect approaches intellectual history. 5. Autonomy respecting development assistance. 6. Knowledge based development assistance. 7. Can development agencies learn and help clients learn. 8. Case study assistance to the transition countries. 9. Hirschmanian themes of social learning and change. 10. Conclusions. Appendix. Eight thinkers on the five themes. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Helping People Help Themselves grew out of David Ellerman's ten years at the World Bank and particularly out of his three years as advisor and speechwriter for Joseph Stiglitz during Stiglitz's tumultuous term as the Bank's Chief Economist. The book provides a structural critique of the world bank's approach to development assistance but the main purpose is to lay the intellectual foundations for an alternative approach. The book takes a broad interdisciplinary approach drawing from educational theory management theory community organizing psychology and philosophy. While many thinkers are discussed there is a focus on eight individuals who have wrestled with the fundamental conundrum of giving external help that promotes (rather than thwarts) self help. These include Albert Hirschman John Dewey Paulo Freire E.F. Schumacher Douglas McGregor Carl Rogers Saul Alinsky and Soren Kierkegaard. Helping People Help Themselves might be considered the companion volume focusing on the world bank to Stiglitz's Globalization and its discontents which focused on the IMF. 334 pp. …

Paperback. Zustand: New. 1st ed. 2021. This monograph offers a new foundation for information theory that is based on the notion of information-as-distinctions, being directly measured by logical entropy, and on the re-quantification as Shannon entropy, which is the fundamental concept for the theory of coding and communications.Information is based on distinctions, differences, distinguishability, and diversity. Information sets are defined that express the distinctions made by a partition, e.g., the inverse-image of a random variable so they represent the pre-probability notion of information. Then logical entropy is a probability measure on the information sets, the probability that on two independent trials, a distinction or "dit" of the partition will be obtained. The formula for logical entropy is a new derivation of an old formula that goes back to the early twentieth century and has been re-derived many times in different contexts. As a probability measure, all the compound notions of joint, conditional, and mutual logical entropy are immediate. The Shannon entropy (which is not defined as a measure in the sense of measure theory)  and its compound notions are then derived from a non-linear dit-to-bit transform that re-quantifies the distinctions of a random variable in terms of bits-so the Shannon entropy is the average number of binary distinctions or bits necessary to make all the distinctions of the random variable. And, using a linearization method, all the set concepts in this logical information theory naturally extend to vector spaces in general-and to Hilbert spaces in particular-for quantum logical information theory which provides the natural measure of the distinctions made in quantum measurement.Relatively short but dense in content, this work can be a reference to researchers and graduate students doing investigations in information theory,  maximum entropy methods in physics, engineering, and statistics, and to all those with a special interest in a new approach to  quantum information theory.…
