Handbooks in Economics

Handbook of the Economics of Identity: Volume 1

This book tackles Jakarta’s pressing environmental and governance challenges, with their wider implications for Indonesia. Underpinned by deep scientific analysis, it highlights the need for integrated planning and ecosystem protection to avert disasters. It critiques the current urban development focus on economic growth, which often overlooks the need for sustainability and inclusiveness. By promoting good governance, this book emphasizes the crucial role of preserving both land and marine ecosystems in urban planning to protect Jakarta from environmental and disaster risks. The uniqueness of this book stems from its sharp critique of current development models that neglect environmental and social sustainability, leading to social exclusion and marginalization. It is organized into four main sections, each dissecting different facets of governance and ecological tactics vital for sustaining Jakarta. Aimed at students, academics, policymakers, and business leaders dealing with Jakarta's intricate challenges, this book introduces fresh methodologies and viewpoints. It brings together a range of experts to discuss historical contexts, practical realities, and strategic visions. As a thorough guide for re-envisioning Jakarta’s development strategies, it encourages a vital discussion on reshaping urban growth to prevent the city from sinking while promoting a more inclusive and sustainable urban future.

Perspectives on Development in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Region

This book offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary account of Iran’s changing energy landscape and the closely connected challenges of governance, sustainable development, and geopolitics. Rather than examining these issues in isolation, it brings together technical, socioeconomic, institutional, and environmental perspectives. The book explores the contrast between Iran’s vast hydrocarbon wealth and its deepening energy crisis, examining the burden of energy subsidies, the slow expansion of renewable energy, and the growing pressures created by water scarcity and climate change. It also proposes practical reform strategies that recognize both domestic institutional constraints and external political and economic pressures.The analysis extends beyond Iran’s borders to consider the strategic importance of regional energy chokepoints and transportation corridors. Particular attention is given to the Strait of Hormuz, both as a vital artery for global energy trade and as a source of geopolitical leverage and vulnerability. The book also examines how emerging connectivity projects—including the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity (TRIPP), the International North–South Transport Corridor, and the Trans-Caspian Middle Corridor—could reshape regional trade, energy transit, and Iran’s position within evolving Eurasian supply chains.Written for academics, policymakers, industry specialists, investors, and practitioners, the book combines critical policy analysis, technical assessment, and scenario-based research to clarify the choices facing Iran and their consequences for the wider region. Amid sanctions, geopolitical tensions, vulnerable infrastructure, and mounting domestic shortages, Iran’s energy transition is far more than a technological or environmental challenge: it is a test of the country’s economic resilience, institutional capacity, and regional strategy. By tracing the connections among domestic reform, energy security, environmental sustainability, transit diplomacy, and regional cooperation, the book fills an important gap in the literature and provides a timely guide to Iran’s evolving place in regional and global energy affairs.

'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.

A history of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, and how the ambiguity built into that technology helps companies and exploits workersSeeing Like a Supply Chain is a compelling investigation into the hidden networks that drive our global economy. Miriam Posner presents a blow-by-blow account of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, revealing how the system's built-in ambiguity shields companies from accountability while exploiting workers.Drawing on more than a decade of research, Posner shows how computation converged with the growth of global trade to allow for a lightning-quick, astoundingly efficient supply chain that lets corporations source products without any notion of where their goods are actually being produced. At a time when multinational firms fear the reputational damage of human rights violations in the making of their products, the supply chain's shroud of vagueness is a feature, not a bug. Posner shows how this is technically accomplished-and how the strategic disavowal of information extends through every step of that chain.

In this book, José Rente Nascimento explores the economic, environmental, social, and cultural dynamics of the Amazon. The book weaves five centuries of transformation, highlighting geographical conditions, Amerindian resource stewardship, the rubber boom, postcolonial policies, and today’s development pressures. Spanning infrastructure, mining, ranching, and agricultural expansion, the book analyzes Amazonian challenges within their historical context.
Drawing on lessons from both failed policies and successful initiatives, Nascimento addresses urgent contemporary issues, including deforestation, indigenous welfare, land tenure, forest-based development, and the complex balance between environmental protection and sustainable growth.
More than a historical account, this book presents a conceptual framework that links past trajectories to present challenges, providing an essential and inspiring resource for students, policymakers, researchers, and all those seeking to learn from Amazonia’s history to secure its sustainable future.

An Economic, Environmental, and Social History

The Amazonian Odyssey

Palgrave Studies in African and Development Economics

This book examines the rapid rise of ancient Rome and Qin to inform 21st century industrial development. It utilizes the concept of latecomer introduced in the 1950s by the political economist Alexander Gerschenkron, who used latecomer theory to explore the patterns of industrial development, with latecomers like Germany catching up with early movers like Great Britain. By extending this concept to the ancient world, the ways that Rome and Qin utilized militarization and political institutions to create advanced social and political systems are examined. It shows how this enabled them to catch up with and surpass the extant states of their time – in the case of Qin the other warring states in China, and in the case of Rome the extant states of the Mediterranean such as Greeks, Phoenicians/Carthaginians, and Etruscans.The eventual fall of Rome in the 5th century CE is contrasted with the experience of the state of Qin, which created a state model that endured for centuries, to show the benefits and limitations of different forms of rule and state systems. The Roman emphasis on monopoly power is seen to have limited broader Western development for centuries. This book takes the successes and failures of ancient civilizations and applies the lessons learned using the latecomer concept to the economic development challenges seen today.John A. Mathews
