REPORT TO THE GOVERNOR tells the story of a four-year investigation into racketeering, corruption and election fraud in the State of Arizona by John Harris Thaler and his team at Harris/Thaler Law. It also covers the abduction of the author's son, McKinley Harris Thaler, in September 2020 as part of a misguided plot to stop the investigation. From money laundering to payroll theft to insurance fraud to computer hacking to bribes paid to public officials, REPORT TO THE GOVERNOR exposes the cesspool of corruption that has infiltrated every state and local government agency including the city courts and the county superior courts and has led to massive election fraud. With over 500 footnotes referencing more than 5,000 pages of evidence, Thaler's narrative is well documented, personal, and deeply compelling. It is as much political science as it is mystery and intrigue as Thaler and his team slowly unravel the criminal enterprises plaguing the Grand Canyon State.
The vital role of human resources in contributing to a country's economic development is undeniable. Economic progress hinges on the effective utilization of a nation's physical resources by its labor force and other forms of manpower to fully harness the country's production potential. Within the service sector, human resources emerge as the most significant contributor to the Indian economy.For most adults, the domains of work and life hold utmost importance. Regardless of one's profession, achieving a balance between work and life is an imperative challenge faced by all employees. Work-life balance is not only essential for the workforce but also crucial for the organization itself. When employees successfully strike a balance between their work and personal lives, it becomes evident in their performance and effectiveness in both spheres-work and life. The right equilibrium between work and life plays a pivotal role in attaining both personal and organizational goals. Moreover, work-life balance significantly influences employees' attitudes towards their organization and their overall satisfaction with their lives.In recent decades, sweeping changes in the social, religious, political, and economic landscape have spurred a rapid increase in the number of women entering the paid labor force in India and elsewhere. The rise in women's literacy rates in India has resulted in a demographic shift, marked by a growing number of women in the workforce. In the 21st century, a substantial portion of women has been engaged in various fields. According to the latest census data from 2011, 25.6% of women in India actively participate in the workforce. The surge in nuclear and dual-earner families has placed significant pressure on both men and women to effectively manage their work and family responsibilities.The profession of policing presents a challenging, and at times, outright hostile work environment for both women and men officers. Achieving work-life balance poses a critical issue for police personnel. Policing stands out as one of the occupations characterized by a high level of stress. The duties of police constables encompass a wide array of responsibilities, including law enforcement, peacekeeping, protection of individuals and property, and investigative work.
From 1917 on, Feder studied financial politics and economics on his own after developing a hostility towards wealthy bankers during World War I and wrote a "manifesto on breaking the shackles of interest" ("Brechung der Zinsknechtschaft") in 1919. This was soon followed by the founding of a "task force" dedicated to those goals that demanded a nationalisation of all banks and an abolition of interest.Feder proposes ideas and solutions to problems which not only affected Germany at the time but could apply to any nation today.Originally published in 1919, this translated manifesto is a must read for anyone interested in history or economics.
This volume explores the impact of good governance upon social sectors' development in India and other selected economies of the world.Economic development in the true sense depends on the development of different social sectors like education, healthcare, gender equality, etc., as well as economic factors. Good governance makes the sectors perform well on the one hand, and helps in economic growth and development on the other. Conversely, bad or weak governance in the form of corruption and low effectiveness of the governments, may lead to poor performance of the sectors, and low growth and backwardness of the economies. This book explores the associations between different social sectors' performances with quality of governance, and growth and development of different economies and groups in detail and establishes theoretical and empirical examinations for the individual economies and groups from the different corners of the globe with the help of new theories and latest data.This book will be useful for students and researchers in the fields of Economics, Sociology, Political Studies, Public Finance, International Relations, Social Sciences as well as policy makers and think tanks.
Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, financial guru and philanthropist extraordinaire, has become the issue in Nigerian politics. A visionary leader, the foundation he has put in place for good governance in Lagos, Nigeria's financial capital and the engine house of West African economic activity, would always come up for mention. Of his monumental achievements as governor of Lagos, and how through the dream of an individual the city state arbitrarily referred to as a jungle got transformed to the 7th largest megacity in the world, the present work is a modest contribution to a large pool of testimonies.

Economic development depends heavily on the growth of social sectors like education, healthcare, gender equality, as well as factors like income, consumption, investment and trade. This book examines the interlinkages between development, good governance and spending on social growth.
This book investigates the policies of the Thatcher, Major and Blair governments and their approaches towards concentration of economic and political power.The 1979-2007 British governments have variously been described as liberal or, to use a political insult and a favourite academic label, neoliberal. One of the stated objectives of the Thatcher, Major and Blair governments-albeit with differing focal points-was to disperse power and to empower the individual. This was also a consistent theme of the first generation of neoliberals, who saw monopolies, vested interests and concentration more generally as the 'great enemy of democracy'. Under Thatcher and Major, Conservatives sought to liberalize the economy and spread ownership through policies like Right to Buy and privatisation. New Labour dispersed political power with its devolution agenda, granted operational independence to the Bank of England and put in place a seemingly robust antitrust framework. All governments during the 1979-2007 period pursued choice in public services. Yet our modern discourse characterises Britain as beset by endemic power concentration, in markets and politics. What went wrong? How did so-called neoliberal governments, which invoked liberty and empowerment, fail to disperse power and allow concentration to continue, recur or arise?The book will be of interest to students and scholars of contemporary British history, political economy and politics, as well as specific areas of study such as Thatcherism and New Labour.
