Is Management of Knowledge affecting the Competitive Advantage and Performance of Commercial Bank of Ethiopia?
No full textThe specific goal of the current empirical research was to examine the causes and consequences of knowledge management views in Ethiopian commercial banks when competitive advantage is employed as a mediator. A sample of 383 bank account holders in the Ethiopian town of Dilla was the subject of the investigation. Simple random sampling was the method used to select a sample. SEM was employed for mediation and model fitness, the CFA test for validity and hypothesis testing /KMO test used for dependability and data sufficiency. The results confirmed that the knowledge management practices and organizational performance of the sampled firm were modest. This implies that companies should keep enhancing their knowledge management procedures to boost organizational effectiveness. This leads the study to conclude that knowledge acquisition, sharing, retention, and utilization, when paired with competitive advantage, significantly predict the organizational performances of commercially owned banks in Ethiopia. Commercial banks should therefore closely monitor these kinds of knowledge management techniques in order to improve bank performance

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN RESERVE MONEY AND ECONOMIC GROWTH IN BANGLADESH: AN EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS USING THE AUTOREGRESSIVE DISTRIBUTED LAG (ARDL) APPROACH
Get PDFThis study uses the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) method to examine the relationship between reserve money and economic growth in Bangladesh. The analysis aims to provide insights into the dynamics between reserve money and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and to evaluate the efficiency of monetary policy in stimulating economic activity.

POLITICS OF UN/RE/CLAIMING: CRITICAL FEMINIST INTERVENTIONS IN GLOBAL POLICY, RIGHTS AND DEVELOPMENT
Get PDFInformed by intersectional feminist sensibilities, this compilation of four critical interventions weaves together existing and emergent threads of women’s studies to interrogate one-dimensional framings of global policy, rights and development in hegemonic discourse. Attending to contemporary geopolitical issues as diverse as they are rich, what interconnects these seemingly disparate sites of complexity and contestation is a politics of un/re/claiming. ‘Instrumental Women or Women-as-Instruments? Assessing Gender Mainstreaming and Claims to Microcredit’ problematises the myriad ways in which economic (dis)empowerment, vis-à-vis the staking of microcredit claims, is constitutive of and constituted by neoliberal globalisation. ‘Medicinal and Aromatic Plants: Territorial Resource Claims and the Feminisation of Global Agricultural Production’ navigates topographies of agricultural supply-chain management to tease out the textured intersections between global(ised) trade, natural resource claims and gendered labour divisions. Straddling the neoliberal epoch’s hyper-precarious borders and boundaries, patient lifeworlds are multiply inflected by their in/capacity to articulate healthcare-based claims - ‘Patienthood and its Dis/claimers: Embodied Citizenship Politics in Neoliberal Welfare Restructuring’ invokes an anthropologically-attuned analytic frame to unearth such ambivalences. Finally, ‘On Wendy Brown’s “Suffering Rights as Paradoxes”: Theorising the Im/possibility of Rights-Based Claims’ offers an incisive, nuanced commentary on Wendy Brown’s seminal scholarship in search of new political and epistemological possibilities for redressing rights-based claims
