Managing the Macroeconomy

Having originated in the advanced economies, the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) of 2008–09 spread rapidly to the rest of the world. The impact on the emerging markets, especially those in Asia, though not as severe as that in the advanced countries, was still quite signifi- cant. India withstood the crisis initially but could not remain entirely unaffected for long (especially after the collap…

CYBER INFRASTRUCTURE PROTECTION

The Internet, as well as other telecommunication networks and information systems, have become an integrated part of our daily lives, and our dependency upon their underlying infrastructure is ever-increas- ing. Unfortunately, as our dependency has grown, so have hostile attacks on the cyber infrastructure by network predators. The lack of security as a core el- ement in the initial design of…

Virilio and Visual Culture
