Why Economies Fail - and How Communities Can Rebuild Them

Milton Friedman and Economic Debate in the United States

Milton Friedman and Economic Debate in the United States, 1973-1976, Vol. 3

In The Four Paradigms in Economics: Theories, Concepts, and Analytical Tools, Kavous Ardalan demonstrates how these four paradigms explain any economics phenomenon differently, and therefore, together they provide a broader and deeper understanding of the economic phenomenon under consideration. The main theme of The Four Paradigms of Economics is that social theory can usefully be conceived in terms of these four key paradigms: functionalist, interpretive, radical humanist, and radical structuralist. The four paradigms are founded upon different assumptions about the nature of social science and society, and therefore, provide different explanations of any phenomenon. The book also looks at the major prevailing schools of thought in economics (Neo-Classical Economics, New Institutional Economics, Behavioral Economics, Austrian Economics, Post-Keynesian Economics, Institutional Economics, Social Economics, Radical Economics, and Marxist Economics) from the point of view of the four paradigms and locates them within the four-paradigm framework.

Theories, Concepts, and Analytical Tools

The Four Paradigms in Economics

Why the consequences of a prolonged period of weaker economic growth will be more profound than anyone dares to predictIn the heady progress of the post-war era, our lifestyles changed, our political systems adapted, and rapid economic growth became the model of every developed economy. But this prevailing consensus is falling apart around us. Growth is now, at best, no more than anaemic. Policymakers dream about an AI revolution and tweak their fiscal rules to accommodate a newly-austere economic reality but, all the while, government debt soars, financial markets become increasingly jittery, and voters lose trust in their politicians.Celebrated economist Stephen D. King asks how our politics will adapt to such persistently low growth. While leaders make fiscal promises based on a future that is unlikely to materialise, nationalism thrives, battlelines are drawn between perceived winners and losers, and the rules-based international order crumbles. The absence of growth triggers invidious political wrangling over tax, welfare, defence and infrastructure, intensifies competition for resources, and leads to social instability.King shows how our new world is governed by them-and-us divisions over limited economic spoils. This is the political economy of plunder.&nbsp;

Winners and Losers in the Low Growth Era

The Age of Plunder

In Devil Take the Hindmost, Edward Chancellor traces the origins of the speculative spirit back to the publicani of ancient Rome and chronicles its revival in the modern world: from the tulip scandal of 1630s Holland and 'stockjobbing' in London's Exchange Alley, to the infamous South Sea Bubble of 1720, which prompted Sir Isaac Newton to comment, 'I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people.' This revised and updated edition analyses with characteristic liveliness and precision the end of the dot-com bubble, the property value speculations that culminated in the 2008 financial crisis, the 'Everything Bubble' of the pandemic years and the gigantic speculations of Artificial Intelligence. This is the story of human hopes and folly through the ages, populated by brokers underwriting risks that included highway robbery and the 'assurance of female chastity'; credit notes and lottery tickets circulating as money; wise and unwise investors from Alexander Pope and Benjamin Disraeli to Hillary Rodham Clinton and well-known leaders of our own time.

"[O]ne of the most original and important books on Africa in years."--Financial Times"Challenges outdated narratives and makes a compelling case for the continent's economic potential."--Bill GatesThe acclaimed author of How Asia Works brings his "pithy, well-written and intellectually vigorous" (Financial Times) reporting to Africa, revealing essential, promising lessons about the engines of economic growth across the continentThe culmination of twenty years spent studying Asian economics, Joe Studwell's celebrated How Asia Works revealed the key policies behind the meteoric growth of the "Asian tigers." The question he kept hearing from those inspired by his clear-eyed understanding of global development: what about Africa? He was finally convinced to investigate further when the inquiries began coming from Africans themselves. A decade of research, travel and on-the-ground reporting began.Studwell expected that Africa's challenging geography and its crippling legacies of colonialism would necessitate a unique developmental recipe. Yet to his astonishment, the African countries that succeeded did so by embracing the very same strategies their Asian counterparts had--strategies that are far different from those foisted on Africa by the international community. He explores these winning policies via four countries that have seen exceptional economic growth (Botswana, Mauritius, Ethiopia and Rwanda) and that demonstrate both the promise and the particular challenge of the African context. Highlighting the achievements of local leaders, Studwell argues that prosperity is well within reach and that the rapidly rising population--seen as alarming by so many--will be foundational to Africa's flourishing. How Africa Works is essential, optimistic reading for anyone looking to understand the next chapter of global development.

Saving enough to retire comfortably, and then to make the money last, is far more difficult than you have been told. It won't be enough to put a small chunk of each paycheck into your retirement plan and trust in the market. No, the 4% rule won't save you. No, a diversified portfolio won't be enough. Yes, you had better maximize your Social Security payout. Retirement sets out the truth about what it takes to save for a comfortable retirement and the key mistakes to avoid. Every investment strategy is vulnerable to failure. And every investment strategy can work if you save enough money. Authors Edward F. McQuarrie and William J. Bernstein, a legendary voice in the investment world, pull back the curtain on 200 years of market history to reveal the hard, unvarnished truth about how much you really need to save for retirement and the best ways to do it. This book will give you state-of-the-art approaches for stretching out your money so that you never run out . The authors address the role of life annuities, discuss how a ladder of inflation-adjusted bonds can cushion the ups and downs of the stock market, and explain how the 4% rule has been replaced with more robust and successful methods for managing withdrawals. This book delivers a message of tough love. If you are saving for retirement, you need to hear it.

Routledge Studies in Defence and Peace Economics

The challenges of economic development become harder to achieve if poor countries also face military threats, either from external sources (such as the arms race between India and Pakistan) or from internal sources (conflicts and civil wars in Kashmir, Nepal and Sri Lanka). This book examines the relationship between economic and military security in developing countries. Set in the context of South Asia, focusing on India and Pakistan: two of only a dozen or so countries which have the capability to produce nuclear weapons, it is the product of detailed analytical research.

A practical framework for building inclusive prosperity through positive-sum economics Zero-sum thinking has cost the American economy an estimated $50 trillion over the last 30 years. The forthcoming book, Positive Sum: How Zero-sum Thinking Broke Capitalism - and How We Can Fix It from the Ford Foundation's director of Mission Investments, Roy Swan, reveals why this primitive instinct continues to cost businesses $600 billion annually, and offers a practical roadmap for recognizing the economic power of fairness to create broadly shared prosperity. Through Positive Sum Swan questions the outdated economic theory that for someone to win, someone else must lose. The book presents concrete investment strategies that have delivered proven 28% returns, while advancing inclusive growth. Readers will also find: <ul> <li>Evidence showing how zero-sum assumptions undermine both corporate profits and national prosperity, backed by rigorous economic analysis</li> <li>Practical implementation strategies for impact investing that align financial returns with social outcomes across global markets</li> <li>Real-world case studies from the Ford Foundation's Mission Investments program demonstrating market-rate returns alongside measurable impact</li> <li>A distinctly American framework for stakeholder capitalism that resonates across political divides while remaining globally applicable</li> <li>Actionable guidance for business leaders seeking sustainable models that create value for shareholders, employees, and communities simultaneously</li> </ul> Positive Sum offers essential reading for business leaders seeking sustainable economic models, investors looking to connect values with returns, policymakers addressing inequality, and anyone concerned about building an economy where prosperity is broadly shared rather than narrowly concentrated. &nbsp;

Economics is vital, but its labyrinth of equations can make it feel disconnected from the real world. Enter a powerful tool: the metaphor.From longtime economics journalist Peter Coy comes an approachable and fun guide to the metaphors that unlock its power. With nearly 500 alphabetized entries, complemented by playful illustrations, Economics Without Numbers demystifies concepts, exploring their origins, the truths they express, and where they fall short. The result is a delightful and original primer on economic ideas and history that's perfect for students and anyone who wants to understand what makes the world go 'round.Coy has spent decades collecting these vivid metaphors. From "trickle-down economics" (the idea that making the rich richer will help the poor) to "inductivist turkey" (a parable about the perils of assuming that a trend will persist without knowing its cause), Coy brings economics to life.
