Bending an inter-racial triangle.......2002-07-26
Ricardo Ramos's second novel is about a triangle. The story is told in alternating diaries of the two men. Originally from the Midwest and conventionally contemptuous of homosexuals, Tod is a database manager for a company somewhere on the San Francisco peninsula. Ikuko, his third-generation (Sansei) Japanese-American wife works with a Filipino-American (also third-generation, I think) gay man named Ramon. She accepts a dinner invitation from him. Bored by the shop talk and uneasy with a gay host, Tod has too much to drink. . .
The next morning Tod wakes up - alone and nude - in Ramon's bed. He wonders why Ikukuo left him there, for how long, and (most of all) what happened after he passed out. Both Ramon and Tod wonder if Ikuko is throwing her husband at Ramon. And if she is, why? To make him more adventurous for her own pleasures? Because she wants to discard him and arrange a successor her herself? Because she suspects he is really gay? Etc.
Their diaries sort through evidence for various interpretations of Ikukuo's motivation and document the florescence of a relationship between Tod and Ramon. Ramon already knows, but is reminded by his sister: "Don't mess with married men. They are certain to bring heartache." And Tod is alarmed to find that he enjoys sex with an "obvious homosexual" when not under the influence (/excuse) of alcohol.
Like Ramos's first novel, _Flipping_, _Searching for the Key_ explores the eroticized racial differences. Being a sociologist interested in the diversity of gay experiences, I am afraid that I have made this often very funny novel sound like a treatise on inter-racial sexual relationships. "Boys just want to have fun"-and they do. Ramon is more aware of the absurdities of love and desire than Tod, and his breezy comments are more often funny Tod is somewhat plodding, but he is in waters more alien to his background than is Ramon and has to "work through" some matters Ramon cannot remember caring about. And understanding what Ikuko is up to is obviously more important to Tod than to Ramon.

Book Description
This book breaks new ground by exploring the challenges, constraints, and opportunities of national financial systems in developing countries, while noting that all such systems must be considered small when viewed in the context of global finance. Banking, securities, contractual savings, and systemic macroeconomic aspects are all considered.

From the supplier: Recent grim statistics on Sub-Saharan African economies are distorted by the oil factor. Non-oil exporting countries that had been implementing World Bank and IMF reform programs are actually seeing improvements in their economic growth and export performances. As a result they also become more attractive to multilateral and bilateral aid donors. The Sub-Saharan economic recovery is still in its infancy, and formidable obstacles lie ahead in the area of population explosion and social reforms. Substantial donor support will be needed in order to sustain the initial growth process.

Book Description
While international capital flows are rising, the role of banks in the economy is changing and stock markets in OECD and eastern European countries play an increasing role for financing investment and innovation. Economic catching up of eastern Europe, European Monetary Union and problems of economic convergence are some of the issues discussed in this volume. Theoretical as well as empirical analyses of savings, private and public investment, and portfolio shifts are presented from a comparative perspective, covering Europe, Asia, Latin America and the US. Prudential supervision, banking issues and monetary integration are topics analyzed in theoretical and economic policy terms.
Book Description
This book tells the story of credit cards around the world: why people use them, the effects on the economies of the nations where they prevail, why they are used so differently around the world, and what should be done to respond to the problems they cause. It includes a wealth of data from around the world, fascinating narratives about the differences from country to country, and penetrating analyses of policies that might stem misuse of cards.

From the supplier: The responsiveness of growth to economic policies and technological advances, as well as the minimal influence of culture, suggests there is hope for reversing the poor growth performance experienced by most developing nations in the 1980s. Multilateral institutions such as the International Monetary Fund and World Bank can contribute to the revival of growth by providing capital to help cover 'start-up costs', and by providing support for reform of inefficient government policies, the achievement of macroeconomic stability, and the creation of essential public infrastructure.

Book Description
As the decade of the 1980s draws to a close, international debt--and the role of international banks in solving the debt crisis--is considered by some to be the major problem facing the world's economies. This collection of essays, contributed by some of the nation's most respected thinkers, academics, policy advisors, and top ranking executives examines the world monetary system in terms of its institutions and mechanisms and their relationship to liquidity, exchange rates, credit creation, trade, and growth. Practicing professionals, academics, and all those interested in monetary theory will find this volume to be an excellent reference on questions of policy relating to international banking, world monetary system, and world economic growth in the late 1980s.
