She awakes, ready to start her new life. She can't wait to begin. How is she to know this will be her eleventh beginning? In the last country where water runs clean and society still thrives, one Sepa has been doing exactly as she's been told since birth. She's a spy sent to observe the clans in the outside world, offering them a meager share of her country's resources in exchange for the treasures the Old World left behind. With a Sepa's memory modifications, the ruling Family can empty her memories for study upon her return, and she's always given them readily. Only this time, someone in the Family wants her to spy on her own government. In exchange? She's allowed to keep her memories for the very first time. She'll find that keeping memories comes with a whole host of wonders-family, love, friendship-but it also comes with the secrets those in power would kill to keep.

Two peoples, the New Bhutanese and the Banjarians, have lived side by side for centuries with only stories to imagine what they other might be like. New Bhutan is a bountiful society, protected from the wasteland of Earth they call the Banjar by an impenetrable barrier. They have perfected sustainability and peace. The Banjarians live outside the barrier, creating their culture and way of life in the dangerous wasteland. After 300 years, the New Bhutanese are ready to see if the Banjar is healing. The Sepa Project is born. Sepas are women created to enter the Banjar and record every detail of their memories. All of their memories are emptied by The Family for study, so a Sepa never knows where she has been or what she has seen. When one Sepa doesn't quite fit her place, her mere existence sets off a series of events that will reveal the dark underbelly of their beloved society. Sepa 288 remembers her training. She remembers her purpose. She remembers her praise. But the question pulls at her. What are the Sepas forgetting? In a world when memories can be stolen and The Family is always listening, an unlikely group of rebels will struggle to let go of their power and stand against prejudice in a race to remember the truth. The Sepa Project is Book One of the trilogy. Cover art created by Kat Murphy.

SEPA was created by Europe’s banks in 2002 in response to regulations and plans drawn up by the European Commission from a meeting in Lisbon at the turn of the millennium. Consequently, SEPA has been assisted by new legislation, the PSD, which was agreed in 2007. The implementation of SEPA takes place in 2008 within the banking industry, with full operation in 2010, and will be a massive change to not just banking, but all aspects of finance and financial services across Europe and the globe. This is because the vision for SEPA is that, by 2010, all euro payments are treated in the same way as domestic payments. In other words, European citizens and corporations enjoy a transparent market where there is no difference in charges for payments between Rome, Madrid, Paris and Munich. As a result, citizens, governments and corporations will have full access to finance transparently across 15 countries today and potentially 31 tomorrow. A United States of Europe, fuelled by fully integrated financing, will be different to the fragmented Europe of the past. This book reviews the key implications and challenges of SEPA and the PSD across the European landscape, and the likely outcomes of SEPA for 2010 and beyond. The main themes that emerge are that many of Europe’s leading providers of payments infrastructures, which are often bankowned, will disappear and new payments providers and structures will emerge. Some of these will be evolutions and some will be revolutions. In addition, there will be major impacts upon those banks that cannot provide euro-services competitively in this new geographically competitive environment. The winners will reap major rewards, but there will be far more losers who will be merged or acquired.

This book examines the new equity-enhancing politics in China in the context of Chinese traditional cognitive patterns of political legitimacy and its implication for Chinese political development in the near future. Based on an analysis of the new governing philosophy, the generation of political elite, and a new set of public policies, the book reaffirms the emergence of a new Chinese polity that infuses one-party rule with limited electoral and deliberative democracies. Unlike many scholars who perceive the contemporary Chinese history as a constant search for democracy, this book takes a very different approach. It asserts that the enduring question in political development in China today is no different from what was sought after throughout Chinese history, namely, the constant search for political legitimacy. Even though the quest for democracy is instrumental to that end, it may not ultimately lead to the embrace of a full-fledged liberal democracy. The new politics is not only a rationalization of the efficiency-based development, but also a major paradigm shift in China's developmental strategy.

Broad-based and inclusive financial systems significantly raise growth, alleviate poverty, and expand economic opportunity. Households, small enterprises, and the rural poor often have difficulty obtaining financial services for a multitude of reasons, including transaction costs, perceived risk, inadequate infrastructure, and information barriers. Yet many financial institutions are now making profitable inroads into underserved markets through formal banking, investment in equities, venture capital, postal banks, and microfinance. Access to Finance addresses the challenges of making financial systems more inclusive, emulating successful ventures in new markets, and utilizing technologies and government policies to support the expansion of financial access. The contributors examine many dimensions of financial access, including: • Measuring financial access • Understanding the impact of expanded access • Examining alternative institutional models • Exploring new technologies and information infrastructure • Evaluating government policies toward outreach.
