Global Economic Interconnectedness

GLOBAL Nuremberg

The Little Book of Business

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

This textbook, the first to originate from the Caribbean context, examines human resource management (HRM) against the background of the unique cultural, economic, and social factors that shape HRM practices in the region. Beyond the regional business environment, it addresses the impact of globalization on organizations and the strategic value of HRM. The book underscores that human capital is the main differentiator for organization competitiveness.
The book is divided into five sections covering 1) strategic HRM in a globalized business world, 2) the core HRM functions critical for organizational success, 3) key elements that contribute to a high-performance workplace, such as employee engagement, utility of teams and performance evaluation systems, 4) fostering employee-management relations and improving workplace productivity, and 5) contemporary challenges for HRM, such as DEI, digital HRM and outsourcing/offshoring.
Featuring cases from indigenous Caribbean companies, this textbook is an invaluable resource for students, HRM practitioners and/or professionals, managers and entrepreneurs, especially those operating within the region, who are seeking to enhance organizational effectiveness and competitiveness.

Principles, Practices and Innovations

Human Resource Management for the Caribbean

An open invitation to changemakers, educators, conscious consumers, and anyone interested in the creative economy to lean into this grassroots global community and help drive systems change. We live in an age where every convenience is a finger tap away, but historically marginalized communities and ecosystems are paying the price of unconscious consumption. Our current economic practices contribute to environmental damage, social injustice, and declining public trust. The solution, argues Stacey Edgar, social entrepreneur and executive director of the International Folk Art Market, is the artisan economy. In contrast to the profit-at-all-costs model of the mainstream economy, the artisan approach to production and consumption encourages creativity, preserves culture, and cultivates connection. In Artisan Economics, Edgar proposes a shift toward this artisan-centric model that prioritizes creativity, dignity, and community. Drawing on stories and research from around the world, she outlines eight core principles of the artisan economy—purpose, creativity, dignity, resistance, community, value, sustainability, and shared prosperity. She also shares a framework, called the Taproot Model of Systems Change, on which to enact these principles by restoring a vision of the economy as a living system. Ultimately, Edgar proposes, the artisan economy is a way to reconnect consumers with makers, foster sustainable growth, and create a more equitable and human-focused global economy. To create true connections across our global economy, we need a dramatic overhaul of what it means to work and what it means to consume.

The first volume of this book discusses in detail the role of banks in the economy before focussing on the provision of loans and their financing through deposits. These core activities by banks are analysed in detail, including how banks deal with strategic default, what role collateral plays in the lending process, how important relationship banking is to banks and borrowers, amongst many other topics. The implications for banks of financing long-term loans with short-term deposits are considered alongside remedies to overcome the resulting problems of this are explored. With deposits also being important for depositors as a means of making payments for goods and services, such account services are also covered in this volume.

Discover more than 60 of the most important ideas, strategies, and milestones in the field of business in this accessible and innovative pocket-sized guide. From the earliest forms of trade and the invention of money to Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” and Henry Ford’s assembly line, and from the rise of corporate strategy to modern digital marketing, consumer psychology, the gig economy, and sustainable commerce, The Little Book of Business examines the philosophies and practices behind global industries and successful start-ups. Packed with infographics and flowcharts that explain complex concepts in a simple but exciting way, The Little Book of Business offers you the perfect introduction to the subject in a portable format perfect for reading on the go.

The third volume of this textbook contains problem sets that allow models to be applied to specific scenarios. The aim of these problems is to show the relevance of the results these models provide to analyse events, provide recommendations, or critique decisions made. This is achievable without referring to the details of the model and the formal mathematical results but using the often scarce information provided to approach the problem intuitively, informed by the models discussed in volumes I and II. Using such an approach also strengthens the understanding of the implications these models have for decision-making in banks or by policymakers.

Theoretical Foundations of Commercial Banking - Vol.3

After having considered the core activities of providing loans and accepting deposits in the first volume, the second volume of this textbook analyses banks in its wider economic context, that is in relationship with each other and other competitors and stakeholders. After studying the competition between banks and how this affects bank behaviour, this volume assesses how banks are managed internally; rather than taking the balance sheet of banks as given, it explores how an optimal balance sheet might look like, how employees are remunerated and how they are acting when representing the bank. The important topic of how bank failures can spread, systemic risk, is also considered, alongside an evaluation of the effectiveness of banking regulation. The final part considers the impact that banks have on the wider economy and how their decisions can affect macroeconomic outcomes.
