This book outlines policies developing nations can adopt to reduce
financial risk and, turning to the needs of the poorest of the
least developed countries, examines a variety of proposals aimed at
increasing the concessional assistance to the countries that cannot
qualify for commercial bank funds.
Although commercial banks have played an increasingly important
role in providing capital to developing nations, many analysts
argue that private financing poses risks both to borrowing nations
and the stability of the international economic system. In
response, Mr. DaCosta demonstrates that developing nations that
adopt appropriate policies can gain substantially by drawing on
private sources of capital. His analysis indicates that many
criticisms of the role of commercial banks are unfounded and that
debt problems in LDCs typically are related to inadequate reserve
and external debt management policies in the borrowing countries
themselves. Emphasizing that economic growth in LDCs often is
constrained by balance-of-payment deficits, Mr. DaCosta shows that
nations relying on private capital frequently experience
higher-than-average growth rates and argues that the advantages of
unconditional or untied aid generally outweigh the constraints
imposed by the multilateral aid agencies. In conclusion, he
outlines specific policies developing nations can adopt to reduce
financial risk and, turning to the needs of the poorest of the
LDCs, examines a variety of proposals aimed at increasing the flow
of concessional assistance to those countries that cannot qualify
for commercial bank funds.
This is a comprehensive guide to writing the first draft of a
feature length screenplay. While it focuses on the college semester
(16 Weeks), it is also completely appropriate for anyone attempting
to write a screenplay within a timeline. The text breaks down
different approaches to designing a screenplay by providing
pragmatic guidelines enhancing your ability to use creativity
rather than focusing on rules. It highlights the skills necessary
to execute compelling visual language to achieve good story, plot,
dialog, dynamic characters, and help you put it all together. Think
of this as a companion tool as you write. The language is
simplified and yet academic, theoretically sound and yet pragmatic.
It also offers additional insight into the history of
screenwriting, the re-write process, and the specific skill sets
needed for adaptation. This book is easy to understand and provides
accounts for context from the author as a professional
screenwriter, as well as anecdotes from other professionals (David
Mickey Evans - The Sand Lot, and Vince McKewin - Fly Away Home, and
Jeb Stuart - Die Hard, The Fugitive, Dana Coen - JAG, NCIS, and
Anthony Tambakis - Warrior, Suicide Squad 2).
