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

Milton Friedman and Economic Debate in the United States

The fourth installment of the sweeping account of the most influential economist in modern times, focusing on his crossover into the public sphere. Milton Friedman is widely recognized as one of the most significant contributors to economics in the modern age. Yet no previous study has distilled Friedman's vast body of writings into an authoritative account of his research, his policy views, and his interventions in public debate. Through his sweeping series on the most influential economist of the second half of the twentieth century, Edward Nelson closes this gap: Milton Friedman and EconomicDebate in the United States is the defining narrative on the famed public intellectual--the first to grapple comprehensively with Friedman's research output, economic framework, and legacy. Volume 4 of Nelson's intellectual and policy biography offers an exacting portrait of Friedman's career following his departure from the University of Chicago. Spanning 1977 to 1979, Nelson's narrative details Friedman's move to California and his greater immersion in public policy, including his project with Rose Friedman and television professionals to create a TV series giving his viewpoint. Nelson details the successes and failures of Friedman's years of extraordinary influence, including: <ul><li>His warnings about US inflation returning to double digits in 1979;</li><li>The changes in professional thinking in the US economics profession and policymaking toward acceptance of Friedman's view that inflation is a monetary phenomenon;</li><li>The rise of Paul Volcker to head of the Federal Reserve and his integration of monetarist ideas into US monetary policy;</li><li>Friedman's proposal to phase in a zero-tariff arrangement in the United States; </li><li>His role in the tax revolt of the 1970s--including his break with the emerging supply-side economics movement on the effects of tax cuts;</li><li>The second oil-price shock and Friedman's critique of the Carter Administration's energy policy;</li><li>The resilience after 1976 of Ronald Reagan's presidential ambitions and Friedman's 1979 endorsement of Reagan for president in the 1980 election.</li></ul>Drawing upon a large body of documentary sources, interviews with dozens of the people closest to Friedman, and his own expertise in Friedman's research area of monetary analysis, Nelson offers the definitive account of what proved to be pivotal years for Friedman and the field of economics.

Palgrave Studies in Public Debt, Spending, and Revenue

This book examines the interplay of professional norms and political accountability in the process of making decisions about whether, how, and how much debt state and local governments should incur. The careful analysis of accountability in actual decisions, focusing particularly on whether and how individual and collective decision-making behavior responds to general (stipulated) norms and situational (negotiated) expectations in their broader social contexts, is a familiar approach in the study of management and public organizations generally, but has not been extensively applied to this area of public financial decision making. Political economists, especially those identified with the public-choice approach, have done extensive macro-level normative and theoretical analysis of public debt, but not in an empirically rich fashion. This book therefore constitutes a missing link that uses analyses of selected cases to advance conceptual understandings of organizational accountability spaces in general, and decisions to incur public indebtedness and the implications of those decisions specifically, by examining the intersection of the macro, meso, and micro levels of expectations for and practices of public financial decision making.

Debt Reckoning

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.

Economics without Numbers

Routledge Revivals

First published in 1982, The French Economy by J.R. Hough explores France's remarkable economic growth from post-war devastation to the 1970s, despite challenges like the oil crises. The book provides an in-depth analysis of France's industry, agriculture, and economic policies, while drawing comparisons with the UK and examining Anglo-French relations. Concluding with insights into the socialist government under President Mitterrand, this is an essential read for students of French economy and history.

The French Economy

From John Maynard Keynes's foremost biographer, an illuminating look at how the economist's ethical approach can be used to address today's pressing problemsJohn Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) was arguably the most important economist of the twentieth century; his ideas have fundamentally altered the way governments approach economic policy. Exploring the enduring relevance of his ideas, Robert Skidelsky emphasizes Keynes's conception of economics as a moral science. Keynes was deeply invested in the broader societal implications of economic policies, and this book highlights his belief in economics as a tool for achieving the good life.Skidelsky sheds new light on Keynes's views on capitalism, discusses his advocacy of low interest rates, and delves into his thoughts on economic instability. He also offers fresh insight into Keynes's ideas about money, his philosophical foundations, and his unique approach to uncertainty and probability. Ultimately, Skidelsky shows how Keynes's vision of an economic policy that prioritizes the common good can be adapted to help solve our current economic and political challenges.

Routledge Research on African Economics

This book critically interrogates sustainable business and finance practices within the unique African context. With increasing stakeholder pressure for sustainability adoption aligned with Agenda 2063 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), sustainable finance emerges as the pathway to create resilient African economies. Sustainable practices in Africa are anchored on integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) tenets into business decisions, creating intersectionality between capital flows and sustainable business goals.This edited collection delves deeply into sustainable business and finance mechanisms, systems, models, and processes, alongside international best practices. It offers comprehensive assessment of how green finance can unlock sustainable business value in Africa amid unprecedented geopolitical risks. Adopting transdisciplinary and multisectoral approaches with comparative case studies, this book provides practical insights into responsible financial investment models, financial sustainability, sustainable artificial intelligence, green leadership, SDGs, environmental stewardship, green business practices, carbon markets, climate change risks, and sustainability-linked loans from an African standpoint. It addresses regulatory and policy inconsistencies while bridging the gap between theory and practice.Drawing on theoretical frameworks and empirical studies, this collection equips business practitioners, researchers, policymakers, and postgraduate learners with practical tools to navigate sustainable business and finance complexities in African economies, contributing significantly to global business sustainability discourse.

'Excellent' Aaron Bastani 'Provocative ... An entertaining, sweeping read' Financial Times Every leader comes to power promising growth: think back to the campaigns of Boris, Truss, Sunak, Starmer, Trump. Yet real-term income hasn't improved in the UK since 2008. Across the West, growth has stagnated for well over a decade, leading to cost of living crises, political instability and rising social tensions. Is real economic growth still possible? And with the climate emergency accelerating beyond repair, should we still be pushing for it? In Icarus Economics, acclaimed economist John Rapley argues that the problem of growth is inherently tied up with the climate crisis. We often assume that poor countries will bear the brunt of climate change, pandemics, and other exogenous shocks, but this book argues the opposite: western societies have more wealth and capital to lose and are less inherently resilient. In this book, he shows us how rich countries can grow their own economies by helping poor countries to decarbonise - and in the process, mitigate the effects of climate change.

How many daily calories would you need to feed a Charizard?Could the Death Star's laser actually blow up a planet?What is the half-life of the Incredible Hulk?And is the meaning of life really '42'?Join Dr Tom Crawford on a tour through the real-world maths of the most absurd fantasy universes. Drawing on a decade's research at some of the world's leading universities, he answers all the most bamboozling maths questions raised by Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Wars and more: from calculating Frodo Baggins' life insurance premium for his journey to Mordor, to what it would take to make the Weasley family car fly, to how rich Super Mario would be after he'd gobbled up all those coins. The result is both a dizzying compendium of fantastical 'did you know?' facts and a guide to the mathematics of life, the universe and everything.

ADVANCED MACROECONOMICS: AN INTRODUCTION FOR UNDERGRADUATES (SECOND EDITION)

Independent, inflation-targeting central banks were supposed to deliver stable prices, financial stability and lasting prosperity. Instead, they have presided over financial crises, stagnant growth, rising inequality and the return of inflation. Yet policy makers and politicians have proved remarkably reluctant to challenge the orthodoxy. Why has this model proved so resilient-and what should replace it? In The Gods That Failed, economist Josh Ryan-Collins argues that today's macroeconomic policy framework rests on five powerful myths that have shaped economic thinking since the 1980s. From the "natural" rate of interest and the management of inflation expectations to efficient financial markets and the taboos surrounding fiscal dominance and credit policy, these ideas continue to constrain policymakers even as the evidence against them becomes overwhelming. Blending colourful economic history, cutting-edge research and vivid real-world examples, Ryan-Collins opens-up the often opaque and technocratic world of monetary and financial policy for a wide readership and illustrates its fundamental flaws. At a time of repeated economic and financial shocks, ecological breakdown and geopolitical instability, The Gods That Failed argues that rebuilding our economies will require a wholesale rethinking of how central banks, governments and financial institutions work together to manage money, credit and the macroeconomy.

The Gods that Failed
