Challenges of Global Economic and Social Transformations

Financial Markets, Structural Change and Economic Development

The Role of Defensive Expectations

The Human Nature of Inflation

Holismus - Basis für eine glückliche Zukunft Holismus ist die Zukunftsvision von Benjamin Otto, dem gestaltenden Gesellschafter der Otto Group. Mit der Übergabe vom Vater auf den Sohn im März 2026 übernimmt er die Aufgabe, die internationale Handels- und Dienstleistungsgruppe in eine gute Zukunft zu führen. Dafür wählt er einen ganzheitlichen Weg. Benjamin Otto setzt darauf, Verantwortung zu teilen sowie die Stärken des Einzelnen und die Intelligenz der Vielen zu nutzen. Und das nicht nur im Unternehmenskontext, sondern gesamtgesellschaftlich und global. Er erläutert, welche Rahmenbedingungen es braucht, um holistische Systeme wachsen zu lassen. Systeme, die aufgrund ihrer Ganzheitlichkeit anderen klar überlegen sind. Ein Must Read für Menschen, die sich persönlich und unternehmerisch weiterentwickeln möchten und die nicht kapitulieren vor den scheinbar unlösbaren Herausforderungen unserer Zeit.

Lösungen für eine glückliche Zukunft – ein ganzheitlicher Blick auf Unternehmen, Ökosysteme und die Menschheit - Vom gestaltenden Gesellschafter der Otto Group

Routledge Studies in Defence and Peace Economics

This book discusses the models used to explain economic growth and introduces the economic factors that could potentially lead to conflict, offering insights into the applicability of economic development theories to post conflict reconstruction.

Economic Development and Post Conflict Reconstruction

This book explores the evolution of sovereign wealth funds in Africa and their increasing significance for facilitating transaction-based economic development. How sovereign investment can address sustainable economic growth, infrastructure development, and sovereign debt reduction is presented.
&nbsp;
Innovations in sovereign investment based on climate finance solutions, asset recycling and monetization, overcoming donor gaps in social sectors, capital markets products, and mobilizing co-investment funds from commercial institutions are also highlighted. An empirical framework for assessing the potential of African sovereign wealth funds to become economic powerhouses is also offered.
&nbsp;
The book provides a roadmap for how every African country can and should establish a sovereign wealth or development fund, including those not endowed with a generous supply of natural resources.&nbsp; It will be relevant to fund managers, development professionals, commercial investors, students and researchers interested in African political economy.

Transaction-Based Development From the Periphery to the Center of Sovereign Investment Strategy

African Sovereign Wealth Funds and New Directions in State Capitalism

An award-winning economic journalist on why the US dollar is positioned to maintain global primacy--and what that means for America and the world "Magisterial."--Edward Chancellor, Reuters Prophecies that the dollar will lose its status as the world's dominant currency have echoed for decades--and are increasing in volume. Cryptocurrency enthusiasts claim that Bitcoin or other blockchain-based monetary units will replace the dollar. Foreign policy hawks warn that China's renminbi poses a lethal threat to the greenback. And sound money zealots predict that mounting US debt and inflation will surely erode the dollar's value to the point of irrelevancy. Contra the doomsayers, Paul Blustein shows that the dollar's standing atop the world's currency pyramid is impregnable, barring catastrophic policy missteps by the US government. Recounting how the United States has wielded the dollar to impose devastating sanctions against adversaries, Blustein explains that although targets such as Russia have found ways to limit the damage, Washington's financial weaponry will retain potency long into the future. His message, however, is that America must not be complacent about the dollar; the great power that its supremacy confers comes with commensurate responsibility.

Africa's Global Engagement: Perspectives from Emerging Countries

This volume brings together a number of scholars globally - from Africa and Asia to the Americas and Europe - to examine Africa’s global engagements. It approaches its subject matter theoretically and conceptually as well as empirically asking deeper questions like what is the ideal unit for cooperation and engagement? Is it the state or can one go beyond the state or possibly below the African state and internationalize given the context of the failed African state? Whilst focused very much on the contemporary nature and forms of engagement, the volume recognizes the enduring historical, and especially colonial, legacy on the contemporary African state and how it continues to shape patterns of regional and international cooperation. The book covers its subject matter in two thematic manners. First, it covers the “who” of engagement – Africa-European Relations, Africa-India relations, Africa’s relations with China and Africa’s relations with the Global South. Second, the volume explores the “what” of cooperation. This includes: agriculture and climate change, the digital revolution, energy resources, security considerations and trade. Whilst theoretically anchored, the volume seeks to also examine the implications of the empirical study for policy makers.

Africa’s External Engagement

Luxemburg International Studies in Political Economy

This book explores the legacy of economist Eugen Varga and the continued importance of his life and work. It examines the influence of Marx and Luxemburg on Varga’s ideas, particularly his analysis of the capitalist mode of production and his theoretical work on the development of an alternative mode of production. How Varga found limitations in not just his own strongly empirical epistemology, but also in the anti-dialectic Stalinist system are discussed, alongside why these critiques remain relevant in relation to neoliberal theories, inequality, and ecological concerns. Varga’s specific notion of the modern state, his political economy analysis, and his position within the Marxist economic tradition are also covered.
This book provides insight into the challenges faced when attempting to overcome the capitalist mode of production, as well as the historical limitations of scientific research and how ideas can be corrupted by personal, political, and societal forces. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in Marxist economics, the political economy, and the history of economic thought.

Medienwissen kompakt

Medien sind Beobachter und Akteure der Wirklichkeit. Sie greifen aktuelle politische und gesellschaftliche Debatten wie jene um Migration und Flucht auf, verarbeiten sie und gestalten öffentliche Debatten mit. Die mediale Thematisierung von Flucht und Migration hat immer wieder Konjunktur und aktualisiert so auf spezifische Weise Narrative des Eigenen und Fremden. Daraus ergibt sich die Frage, welche Medienimages im Kontext von internationaler Migration geschaffen werden. Inwiefern prägen diese Einstellungsmuster gegenüber Migrant*innen?&nbsp; Beschönigen Massenmedien Konflikte und Krisen rund um Migration und Migrant*innen? Oder tragen sie zu einem rassifizierten Framing bei? Inwiefern kommen Migrantinnen und Migranten selbst zu Wort und was bedeutet das für die post-migrantische Gesellschaft? Der Band adressiert diese und weitere Fragen aus kommunikationswissenschaftlicher Sicht und ermöglicht so einen kompakten Überblick über aktuelle Forschungsbefunde zum Themenfeld Medien und Migration.

Medien und Migration

This book disentangles the complex processes of democratic transitions where regime change also requires a shift from a command economy to one based on private ownership. The author focuses on the liberalization of Cuba in the 21st century, and how Cuba's economic identity crisis directly affects the daily lives of its citizens.

The Democratization of Cuba

"To get rich is glorious," declared Deng Xiaoping, the architect of modern China's economic miracle - but there has been a dark side to this rush to glory and riches, both for the winners and for those who have been left behind.
 
In Everything is Allowed, Nothing is Permitted Robert Foyle Hunwick tells the hidden story of how crime, vice and corruption have flourished in modern China. From the outbreaks of politicized lawlessness in the Mao years, the book charts the flourishing of criminality in the era of opening and reform through to the present day "strike hard" campaigns against corruption under Xi Jinping. There are stories here of business 'fixers', corrupt rural elites, notorious serial killers, spiralling drug use and the flourishing sex trade in China's urban centres. Hunwick looks beyond the official propaganda of a united and peaceful state to reveal a nation that is both built on and existentially threatened by an intricate economy of violence, dark money, power and influence.
