By focusing on the human side as well as the intellectual dimensions of how economists work and think, this collection of interviews with top economists of the 20th century becomes a startling and lively introduction to the modern world of macroeconomics. A fun read! &lt;br /&gt; &lt;p&gt;For more information, frequent updates, and to comment on the forthcoming book, visit William A. Barnett's weblog at http://economistmind.blogspot.com/.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Acclaim for &lt;i&gt;Inside the Economist's Mind&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;"In candid interviews, these great economists prove to be fabulous story tellers of their lives and times. Unendingly gripping for insiders, this book should also help non-specialists understand how economists think."&lt;br /&gt; &lt;i&gt;Professor Julio Rotemberg, Harvard University Business School, and Editor, Review of Economics and Statistics.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;"Economics used to be called the 'dismal science'. It will be impossible for anybody to hold that view anymore ... This is science with flesh and blood, and a lot of fascinating stories that you will find nowhere else."&lt;br /&gt; &lt;i&gt;Dr. Jean-Pascal Bénassy, Paris-Jourdan Sciences Économiques, Paris, France&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;"This book provides a rare and intriguing view of the personal and professional lives of leading economists ... It is like &lt;i&gt;A Beautiful Mind&lt;/i&gt;, scaled by a factor of 16 [the number of interviews in the book]."&lt;br /&gt; &lt;i&gt;Professor Lee Ohanian, University of California at Los Angeles&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;" ... if you want an insider view of how economics has been developing in the last decades, this is the (only) book for you."&lt;br /&gt; &lt;i&gt;Professor Giancarlo Gandolfo, University of Rome ‘La Sapienza,’ Rome&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;"Here we see the HUMAN side of path-breaking research, the personalities and pitfalls, the DRAMA behind the science."&lt;br /&gt; &lt;i&gt;Professor Francis X. Diebold, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Conversations with Eminent Economists

Inside the Economist's Mind

&lt;P&gt;Multidisciplinary economics deliberately uses the insights and approaches of other disciplines and examines what consequences their contributions have for existing economic methods, theories and solutions to economic problems. Multidisciplinary economists should be at home in their own discipline and meet the high international standards of economic teaching and research that the discipline has developed. At the same time they should be able to recognise the limits of economics and be willing to open up new horizons by following new, discipline-transcending paths on which new insights into the analysis and solutions of economic problems can be found in collaboration with representatives of other disciplines. As a result of this search, economic methods and theories may have to be adjusted in such a way that they take insights from other disciplines into account. They may even have to be replaced by methods and theories that have been developed by other disciplines.&lt;/P&gt;

How are women transforming the practice of leadership in the 21&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt; century?  &lt;i&gt;Enlightened Power&lt;/i&gt; is a first-of-a-kind book that answers this question--and forever changes the traditional notions involving women in leadership. The book features the accumulated wisdom of 40 influential men and women who represent the most compelling voices in the field, including:  &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt; Dynamic business leaders such as Eileen Fisher (founder, Eileen Fisher, Inc.), Barbara Corcoran (founder and chairman, The Corcoran Group), and Pat Mitchell (president and CEO, PBS)&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Trailblazing women from other arenas such as politics (Ambassador Swanee Hunt), the military (Rear Admiral Deborah A. Loewer, USN), and sports (U.S. Olympian Marilyn King)&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Renowned thought leaders such as Riane Eisler, Rayona Sharpnack, Sally Helgesen, Peggy Klaus, Bruce Patton, Nancy J. Adler, and Gail Evans&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Leading-edge academics, activists, executives, entrepreneurs, and practitioners&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

Essay from the year 2019 in the subject Economics - Foreign Trade Theory, Trade Policy, University of KwaZulu-Natal, language: English, abstract: The BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) are a fine example of explaining the new dimension of economic regionalism where BRICS’ intra-regional trade relations become the binding factor towards its economic integration and independence. The existing literature is focused on the economic integration of the five emerging countries, for example the economic integration theory (EIT) assumes that increasing globalization and technological progress leads to freer trade and movement of economic factors as well as to deeper integration over time. It shows that physical border is no longer a criterion for economic interdependence and integration within a group while the concerns and common interests form important factors for a new dimension of economic regionalism.The concept of economic regionalism is defined as an empirically observable process of increasing cross-border activities, cooperation and coordination within a group of countries through integration. Originally, the concept of economic regionalism has been based on economic cooperation between natural partners (neighbouring countries or countries on the same continent). But since technological progress reduced transaction costs, intercontinental and global economic integration has become important in recent decades. Geographical distance may stay important for trade flows, but intercontinental relations of emerging countries record a steady rise in trade relations. In general, regionalism could be defined as preferential cooperation among nations that are relocated in terms of geographical proximity, with certain common characteristics such as historical, cultural, political and so forth. The objective of cooperation might be economic, political, or cultural in nature. In this context, the economic regionalism is considered more autonomous, outward-oriented, comprehensive and multi-dimensional process which includes trade and economic integration, environment and social policy issues relating to security and democracy, where the nation-states and other actors play an important role.

Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,0, Furtwangen University, language: English, abstract: In today’s business society the “increasing importance of global business” (Adler 2008, p. 5) can no longer be ignored. Executives need to be “skilled at working with people from countries other than their own” (Adler 2008, p. 13) because “only those who really understand their foreign colleagues and themselves can achieve success in international business” (Schroll-Machl 2003, p. 9). Geert Hofstede, a Dutch organizational sociologist, conducted a worldwide study on the influence of national cultures on organizational cultures. One of the dimensions he found during his study was uncertainty avoidance. This dimension “deals with a society’s tolerance for uncertainty and ambiguity. […] It indicates to what extent a culture programs its members to feel either uncomfortable or comfortable in unstructured situations. Unstructured situations are novel, unknown, surprising, different from usual. Uncertainty avoiding cultures try to minimize the possibility of such situations by strict laws and rules, safety and security measures.” Moreover they are often guided by the “belief in absolute Truth: there can only be one Truth and we have it. […] Uncertainty accepting cultures are more tolerant of opinions different from what they are used to; they try to have as few rules as possible” (Hofstede 1994, p. 4).This paper deals with the influence of this uncertainty avoidance dimension and the accompanying appreciation of rules and regulations on doing business in Germany and Japan.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Employment and Employee Rights&lt;/i&gt; addresses the issue of rights in the workplace.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Although much of the literature in this field focuses on employee rights, this volume considers the issue from the perspective of both employees and employers.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;Considers the rights of both employees and employers.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Discusses the moral and legal landscape and traditional assumptions about right in employment.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Investigates arguments for guaranteeing rights, particularly for employees, which are derived from relational, developmental, and economic bases.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Explores new dimensions of employment including a model that incorporates growing workplace diversity, builds upon our understanding of the legal landscape, and expands upon our justifications for recognizing and protecting rights.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt;

Employment and Employee Rights

Master's Thesis from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,0, Oxford Brookes University, language: English, abstract: Global markets are changing faster than ever and increasing international competition makes it necessary for managers to understand not only the domestic culture but also the host country’s culture.  Derived from globalisation, successful cross-cultural management is gaining in importance and its need for understanding of cultural differences becomes essential. Because of this it is argued that, with the increasing importance of a cross-cultural understanding, Hofstede’s (1980) model of cultural dimensions gains proportional importance and attracts notice at the same time. His study is widely used in global operating organisations within trainings and workshops. The first step of effective cross-cultural management is the awareness that cultural differences exist and domestic strategies might fail in host countries.Even though, Hofstede’s (1980) cultural study is the most important one and widely known, there are many other cultural studies, which are only partly supporting his study. For each and every model of cultural identifications arouse praise and criticism and Hofstede was not spared by criticism. The main criticism refers to the methodology Hofstede used and many authors questioned its validity and reliability. Another major critique is that the nearly 40-years old survey findings are out-dated and not of any modern value anymore. Addressing the elaborated criticisms from the literature, a personal replication study within the two countries of Germany and the UK is undertaken in order to evaluate the validity, reliability and applicability in the 21st century. This study has developed own dimension scores for Masculinity/ Femininity (MAS) and Uncertainty Avoidance (UA) for Germany and the UK and compared and evaluated these with Hofstede’s findings. The findings of this study vary from Hofstede’s findings, as according to this study the UK is more masculine and has a higher Uncertainty Avoidance score than Germany. These findings do not support Hofstede’s findings and further cultural research is recommended.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Situates the linkage between race and the death penalty in the history of the U.S.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Since 1976, over forty percent of prisoners executed in American jails have been African American or Hispanic. This trend shows little evidence of diminishing, and follows a larger pattern of the violent criminalization of African American populations that has marked the country's history of punishment.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In a bold attempt to tackle the looming question of how and why the connection between race and the death penalty has been so strong throughout American history, Ogletree and Sarat headline an interdisciplinary cast of experts in reflecting on this disturbing issue. Insightful original essays approach the topic from legal, historical, cultural, and social science perspectives to show the ways that the death penalty is racialized, the places in the death penalty process where race makes a difference, and the ways that meanings of race in the United States are constructed in and through our practices of capital punishment.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;From Lynch Mobs to the Killing State&lt;/b&gt; not only uncovers the ways that race influences capital punishment, but also attempts to situate the linkage between race and the death penalty in the history of this country, in particular the history of lynching. In its probing examination of how and why the connection between race and the death penalty has been so strong throughout American history, this book forces us to consider how the death penalty gives meaning to race as well as why the racialization of the death penalty is uniquely American.&lt;/p&gt;
