描述
Joined together in an 'economic development marriage', Walt Disney World and Orlando, Florida, have become the world's most popular tourist destination. This intriguing book traces the evolution of the relationship between the Disney Co. and the surrounding community since it began in the 1960s. Like most close relationships, the Disney-Orlando union has involved conflict and compromise. Richard Foglesong shows that this evolving relationship validates the adage: whom you marry affects what you may become. Foglesong explains how Orlando leaders seduced the Disney Co. with big road projects, how the Disney Co. shielded its property from government regulation, and how the company has used the governmental powers it acquired. In short, Disney World has become a "Vatican with Mouse ears", the author declares. In a balanced and thorough analysis of the Disney-Orlando story, Foglesong offers a critical account of how Disney has used - and also abused - its governmental immunities from the beginning of Disney World to the present under chairman Michael Eisner. Orlando's experience with its biggest local employer raises broad questions about urban development policy. Can local leaders resist the demands of global corporations? Do privatisation and deregulation offer a viable strategy for economic development? And is it possible to escape the weight of previous economic development decisions that seem to lock in, for example, more tourism and low wages, while locking out other opportunities?

Walt Disney World And Orlando Have Become The World's Most Popular Tourist Destination. Using The Metaphor Of Love And Marriage, This Intriguing Book Traces The Evolution Of The Disney World-orlando Relationship, An Economic-development Marriage, Says The Author, Characterized By Conflict And Consensus, Individuality And Mutual Dependency - Just Like A Real Marriage. But There Is Another Side To The Story. As The Author Shows, Growth Not Only Gives, It Also Takes Away. Fueled By Disney's Arrival, The Tremendous Growth In Orlando Has Created Public Expenditure Needs, But Not Always Matching Tax Resources. It Has Generated Traffic Congestion, Public Facility Deficits, Affordable Housing Shortages, And A Low-wage Economy. This Situation Is Complicated Further Because Of The Special Enticement Granted To The Disney Co. For Coming To Florida: Their Own Private Government - A Sort Of Vatican With Mouse Ears - With Powers And Immunities That Exceed Orlando's.--book Jacket.title Summary Field Provided By Blackwell North America, Inc.

<p>In this original book, B. Kumaravadivelu presents a macrostrategic framework designed to help both beginning and experienced teachers develop a systematic, coherent, and personal theory of practice. His book provides the tools a teacher needs in order to self-observe, self-analyze, and self-evaluate his or her own teaching acts.</p>
<p>The framework consists of ten macrostrategies based on current theoretical, empirical, and experiential knowledge of second language and foreign language teaching. These strategies enable teachers to evaluate classroom practices and to generate techniques and activities for realizing teaching goals. With checklists, surveys, projects, and reflective tasks to encourage critical thinking, the book is both practical and accessible. Teachers and future teachers, researchers, and teacher educators will find the volume indispensable.</p>
