21st film in the 007 Franchise introduces a new 007 and goes back
to its roots. Daniel Craig stars as the latest incarnation of James
Bond, special agent and international man of mystery and intrigue.
The first Bond film in many years to be based on one of the
original Ian Fleming books, Casino Royale is a quieter, subtler,
more brooding breed of action film, which is not to say there's any
less blowings up, dirty tricks, sexy women or chase sequences. Bond
is in Montenegro at a highly exclusive casino where Le Chiffre
(Mads Mikkelsen) a moneyman for an international terrorist group,
is raising funds for their misdeeds through high-stakes gambling.
007 must infiltrate the group and ultimately defeat the rogue
player, both on and off the tables.
This book examines how state and
local institutions that manage water conveyance
and drainage actually function. Thus a great deal is
revealed about the relationships and power struggles
that exist between government and the people and between central
and local authorities.

Sam Mendes directs this James Bond adventure. Daniel Craig stars as
Bond, whose loyalty to M (Judi Dench) is tested as her past comes
back to haunt her, and Bond's own doubts about his life and
livelihood start to creep in. As MI6 comes under attack and Bond is
sent to Shanghai to investigate, he must keep his focus on tracking
down and destroying the threat - no matter how high the personal
cost. Ralph Fiennes, Javier Bardem and Albert Finney co-star. Adele
and Paul Epworth won an Academy Award and Golden Globe for their
song 'Skyfall' and the film also received BAFTAs for Outstanding
British Film and Original Film Music (Thomas Newman).
Why do some people get together to manage their common assets? Why
do other groups of people leave those assets to be over-exploited
by each member of the group? The answers could be crucial to the
proper maintenance and use of 'common property resources', from
grazing land through fish stocks to irrigation water. Robert Wade,
drawing on research in areas of Andhra Pradesh where rain is scarce
and unreliable, argues that some villagers develop and finance
joint institutions for cooperative management of common property
resources in grazing and irrigation - but others do not. The main
reason lies in the risk of crop loss.Villages located towards the
tail-end of irrigation systems, and with soils fertile enough to
support a high density of livestock, show a larger amount of
corporate organization than villages elsewhere. Placing his work in
the wider context of both the developing world today and the
open-field system of medieval Europe, the author argues that
peasants can under certain conditions organize collectively.
Privatization or state regulation are not the only ways of
preventing degradation of common property resources in peasant
societies.
Published originally in 1990 to critical acclaim, Robert Wade's
"Governing the Market" quickly established itself as a standard in
contemporary political economy. In it, Wade challenged claims both
of those who saw the East Asian story as a vindication of free
market principles and of those who attributed the success of Taiwan
and other countries to government intervention. Instead, Wade
turned attention to the way allocation decisions were divided
between markets and public administration and the synergy between
them. Now, in a new introduction to this paperback edition, Wade
reviews the debate about industrial policy in East and Southeast
Asia and chronicles the changing fortunes of these economies over
the 1990s. He extends the original argument to explain the boom of
the first half of the decade and the crash of the second, stressing
the links between corporations, banks, governments, international
capital markets, and the International Monetary Fund. From this,
Wade goes on to outline a new agenda for national and international
development policy.

The true story of Derek Bentley (Christopher Eccleston), hanged,
aged 19, in the 1950s after a controversial decision holding him
responsible for the murder of a police officer. Despite a history
of mental illness, and with the court accepting that he did not
actually pull the trigger, Bentley was still sentenced to death -
on the basis that his ambiguous cry of 'let him have it!' caused
his young accomplice to fire the fatal shot. The release of this
film focused attention on the case once more, and Bentley
eventually received a posthumous pardon.
