Which Public? Whose Goods? What We Know (And What We Don't) About Public Goods In Rural China, Sara A. Newland Dec 2016

Which Public? Whose Goods? What We Know (And What We Don't) About Public Goods In Rural China, Sara A. Newland

Furthermore, the most common measures of public goods ignore the ways in which …

Louviot discusses in detail the 2007 Pour une "littérature-monde" en français initiated by Michel Le Bris and …
