An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

Johannes Bergstein

Economics - Compact Basic Knowledge for Beginners: How to Easily Understand the Fundamentals of Economics and Gain Insight into the Economy, Financial Markets, and Social Models

Sisters Rei, Kiki and Ai have always had to look out for one another, but life has taken them on very different paths.Eldest daughter Rei is spiky and sensible, consumed by her London finance job. Big-hearted Kiki is a single mother, working in a Tokyo retirement home. The free-spirited youngest, Ai, is a Japanese pop idol who has found fame and fortune - until a scandal spins her life into chaos . . .Together, the three sisters retreat to the remote seaside town where they grew up. But returning home means facing the long shadow of their mother's death, and the lives they've built without each other.Transporting, funny and moving, Kakigori Summer is an uplifting exploration of love, loss, and finding your way home.

Rei, Kiki and Ai are three sisters whose lives have taken them on very different paths. They have lost both parents, one way or another, and each found their own ways of carrying on. Eldest daughter Rei is spiky and sensible, distracting herself with an all-consuming job at a financial corporation in London. Big-hearted Kiki is a single mother in Tokyo, juggling the demands of her young son and the cantankerous elderly residents of the care home she works in. And Ai, the free-spirited youngest, is a Japanese pop idol who has found fame and fortune but lost herself along the way. When Ai is embroiled in a scandal and suddenly thrust into the spotlight, Rei must pick up the pieces of her family once more. Reunited for the summer in their childhood home on the Japanese coast, the sisters are forced to confront the legacy of their mother's death, the stories they have told themselves ever since and the question of how they want to live. A transporting, funny and moving novel about love and loss, this new novel from the author of Fault Lines confirms Emily Itami as a talent to watch.

Kakigori Summer

This is the first book to provide a comprehensive study of the earliest, missionary-mediated translations of Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations in late Qing China (1840-1895). Moving beyond the iconic 1902 translation by Yan Fu, it uncovers a formative half-century of conceptual co-production when Western missionaries and Chinese literati collaboratively refracted Smithian ideas. Through meticulous analysis of neglected texts, the book demonstrates how selective excerpting and the traditional hermeneutic strategy of ge-yi ("concept matching") forged a hybrid economic lexicon. This process embedded core concepts such as value, labor, and wealth within indigenous discourses of state strength (fuqiang, ¿¿, fù qiáng, "seeking wealth and power"), creating a mediated "first Wealth of Nations" for China.Methodologically bridging Translation Studies, Conceptual History, and Global History of Economic Thought, this work offers a new model for analyzing the transnational journey of canonical texts. It resolves the longstanding gap in understanding how Smith's foundational ideas were initially made accessible and relevant in a non-Western context. Timely in this 250th anniversary of Smith's masterpiece, the book reshapes understanding of the origins of modern Chinese economic thought and the global circulation of economic knowledge.

This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things

'It's time we name our kingdom!' he shouted over the wind. 'I say we call this place Happy Land. If this ain't the land of happy people, then where is it? Why not create our heaven right here on earth?' Nikki Berry hasn't seen her grandmother Rita in years. When she calls out of the blue asking Nikki to visit her urgently in the hills of North Carolina, Nikki hesitates only for a moment. Her mother and grandmother have long been estranged, and after years of silence in her family, Nikki is determined to learn the truth while she still can. But instead of answers about the recent past, Mother Rita tells Nikki the incredible story of a kingdom on this very mountain, and of her great-great-great grandmother, Luella, who became its queen. It sounds like the makings of a fairy tale - royalty among a community of freed people. But the more Nikki learns about the Kingdom of the Happy Land and the lives of those who dwelled in the ruins she discovers in the woods, the more she realizes how much of her identity and her family's secrets are contained in these hills. Because this land is their legacy, and it will be up to her to protect it before - like so much else - it is stolen away. Inspired by true events, Happy Land is a transporting multi-generational novel about the stories that shape us and the dazzling courage it takes to dream.

'It's time we name our kingdom!' he shouted over the wind. 'I say we call this place Happy Land. If this ain't the land of happy people, then where is it? Why not create our heaven right here on earth?' In the hills of Appalachia, there once existed a land ruled by a king and queen. Inspired by memories of African kingdoms, a community of formerly enslaved men and women grasped freedom on mountain land they owned. But freedom doesn't always last forever . . . Today, after years of silence, Nikki has been summoned to North Carolina by her estranged grandmother. But instead of revealing answers about their recent past, Mother Rita tells Nikki a shocking story about her great-great-great grandmother, Queen Luella, and the very land they stand on. Land Mother Rita insists must be protected at all costs. As Nikki learns about the Kingdom of the Happy Land, she comes to realise how much of her identity is rooted in this family land, and how much they stand to lose if it, like so much else, is taken from them. It's time to reclaim what's theirs.

Jamie, always a warrior and now a soldier and an officer, fights the enemy with fire and sword; Claire, once a nurse and now a healer, fights death through every battle and sometimes wins.

Money to Burn

Capitalism’s rulers are not abstract entities or shadowy operators. Amazon, Microsoft and Google are the cloud hegemons that subsume the world through the exercise of their intellectual monopolies. Giants like Disney, McDonalds, Nike or Walmart depend on them to use AI for knowledge and value extraction and for disciplining workers. States see some of their core functions sequestered. Innovation is not a free and neutral game, but a hierarchy topped by the rulers. Rikap’s new theoretical framework is grounded in a unique trove of 112 interviews at the world’s largest firms and data on venture capital, acquisitions, open source, AI conferences and patents. They picture a map of the complexities and political implications of corporate power. In Rikap’s counterimage, technology is developed by the people and for the people and the planet through democratic planning.
