Global Challenges in Development, Finance and Education

This book “Global Challenges in Development, Finance, and Education”, already the 5th volume in the Global Studies Series of IJOPEC, has been organized around current research interests of the participating authors from Turkish universities who study various aspects of global processes intersecting with social development and human rights, education, financing technologies for sustainable environment, and financial markets and public investments, amidst the anti-globalisation backlash in the post-2008 era. Besides globalization’s impact on societies, social institutions, and people, the unifying theme of this volume radiates a message of necessity to find an alternative economic model that promotes equality of chances, social stability and justice instead of growing inequality, double standards, and unfair competition under coercion of hegemonic interest groups.
