Advanced Materials, Structures and Processing Technologies Based on Pulsed Laser
Pulsed lasers are lasers with a single laser pulse width of less than 0.25 s, operating only once in every certain time interval. Commonly used pulsed lasers are nanosecond, femtosecond, and picosecond lasers. A pulsed laser produces short pulses with a short interaction time with the material, which can largely avoid impact on the thermal movement of molecules and has a minimal thermal impact …

Translating Technology in Africa. Volume 2: Technicisation
This volume revisits one of the great challenges of our time - the global circulation of technology and the resulting technicisation. Together, the introductory essay and six case studies argue that while circulation inevitably leads to the global standardisation of some forms, successful technicisation depends on local appropriation that takes place in the interstitial zones of translation. Th…

Central Bank Policy Mix: Issues, Challenges, and Policy Responses
Central banks’ mandates cannot merely be to achieve price stability; they should be enlarged to include promoting financial system stability. To achieve this dual mandate, central banks are advised to formulate and implement a policy mix of interest rate policy, combined with exchange rate policy, capital flow management as well as macro prudential policy. This policy mix should be furthe…
