Chip war
Miller Ch.,One of the most important books I've read in years-engrossing, beau- tifully written. Miller shows that, for all its manifest flaws and failures, the American capitalist system has repeatedly outperformed other systems and in the process has done much to bolster the security of democracy." -Robert Kagan, senior fellow, The Brookings Institution, columnist for The Washington Post, and author of The Jungle Grows Back: America and Our Imperiled World "If you care about technology, or America's future prosperity, or its continuing security, this is a book you have to read." -Lawrence H. Summers, 71st U.S. Secretary of the Treasury and Charles W. Eliot University Professor at Harvard University "Outstanding. Miller's history of the chip covers all angles: technolog- The go-to reference on one ical, financial, and especially political. of the most important industries today." -Dan Wang, technology analyst at Gavekal Dragonomics "The battle for supremacy in semiconductors is one of the most impor- tant stories in geopolitics, national security, and economic prosperity. But it's also been one of the least well understood. Thankfully, we now have Chip War to give us a clear view and sharp read on this essential subject."

Handbook of public administration
Public administration as a field of study finds itself in the middle of a fluid environment. The very reach and complexity of public administration has been easy to take for granted, easy to attack, and difficult to explain, particularly in the soundbite and Twitter-snipe media environment. Not only has the context for the discipline changed, but the institutions of public administration have adapted and innovated to deliver services to the public and serve those in power while becoming increasingly complex themselves. Has public administration evolved? And what new lines of research are critical for effective policy and delivery of programs and public services while preserving foundational principles such as the rule of law and expert institutions? This Handbook of Public Administration sheds light for new researchers, doctoral students, scholars, and practitioners interested in probing modern public administration's role in solving major challenges facing nations and the world. This fourth edition recognizes that the scholarship of public administration must reflect the diverse influence of an international orientation, embracing public administration issues and practices in govemance systems around the world, and illustrating just how practice can vary across jurisdictions Every section identifies foundational principles and issues, shows variation in practice across selected jurisdictions, and identifies promising avenues for research. Each chapter revisits enduring themes and tensions, showing how they persist, along with new challenges and opportunities presented by digital technology and contemporary political realities. The Handbook of Public Administration, Fourth Edition provides a compelling introduction to and depiction of the contemporary realities of public administration, and it will inspire new avenues of inquiry for the next generation of public administration researchers.

Code de la communication.
Jérôme Huet, Herbert Maisl,Nouveau venu dans la collection des Codes Dalloz, le Code de la communication relève le défi de l'abandon (momentané ?) de la codification officielle sur ce même thème, qui fut bien près de voir le jour il y a quelques années. C'est dire l'intérêt évident qu'il y avait à rassembler dans un ouvrage unique les nombreux textes épars qui régissent d'une part les médias, des plus traditionnels aux plus modernes (presse, radio, télévision, cinéma, télématique, internet, etc), et d'autre part les principales infrastructures de communication : organismes de presse, poste, télécommunication, télédiffusion et télédistribution. Un vide enfin comblé !

The birth of digital human rights
Dowd R.,This book considers contested responsibilities between the public and private sectors over the use of online data, detailing exactly how digital human rights evolved in specific European states and gradually became a part of the European Union framework of legal protections. The author uniquely examines why and how European lawmakers linked digital data protection to fundamental human rights, something heretofore not explained in other works on general data governance and data privacy. In particular, this work examines the utilization of national and European Union institutional arrangements as a location for activism by legal and academic consultants and by first-mover states who legislated digital human rights beginning in the 1970s. By tracing the way that EU Member States and non-state actors utilized the structure of EU bodies to create the new norm of digital human rights, readers will learn about the process of expanding the scope of human rights protections within multipledimensions of European political space. The project will be informative to scholar, student, and layperson, as it examines a new and evolving area of technology governance-the human rights of digital data use by the public and private sectors.
