Virtual Crimes and Real Harms

Onlife Criminology


<p>
</p><p><b>Selected pieces on nature, history, politics, and urban culture from a master of the nonfiction narrative. </b><br><br>Writing on subjects as diverse as the megafires that burned the grasslands of the Great Plains in 2018, the tragic secret life of the manufacturer of maraschino cherries, the world's largest beaver dam, and the invasive Burmese pythons of the Florida Everglades, Ian Frazier captures the multiplicity, the strangeness, and the wonder of contemporary life.<br><br>This collection of pieces-consisting of features and reportage for <i>The New Yorker</i> and other magazines beginning in 1974, alongside work published as recently as 2024-showcases the wide-ranging play of Frazier's imagination. Astute and engaged, he is the supreme chronicler of the everyday, and a unique social and political anthropologist. More than fifty years of keen observation and avid curiosity come together in <i>The Snakes That Ate Florida:</i> wry, humane, and endlessly surprising, this volume once again confirms Frazier as one of the finest (and most delightful) essayists writing today.</p><p></p>


Reporting, Essays, and Criticism

The Snakes That Ate Florida


<p>
</p><p><strong>From the author of </strong><strong><em>A People's Guide to Capitalism</em></strong><strong>, a clear-eyed look at cryptocurrencies from the left, cutting through the glitz and the scams to reveal how crypto mirrors and exacerbates the crises of capitalism. </strong><strong><br>
</strong><strong><br>
</strong>Cryptocurrencies have gone from being fringe investments relevant only to hardcore adherents to a $3.7 trillion industry with a direct line to Donald Trump's White House. The promises of crypto are wide-ranging, preying on a basic reality: people are disaffected by an economic and financial system that has excluded them and wonder if cryptocurrencies can offer a more transparent and inclusive alternative.<br>
<br>
Challenge any of these notions, or raise concerns about crypto's associations with money laundering, the speculative bubbles ballooning around these assets, or the disastrous climate implications of the technology behind crypto, and you'll be told by proselytizers that you simply don't understand. That complexity is often intentional, serving as a shield from critical scrutiny.<br>
<br>
Enter <em>Crypto-Capitalism</em>, Hadas Thier's deft, accessible examination of the rise and fall and rise again of crypto. Drawing on years of reporting on the industry, its insiders, and the ordinary people impacted by its wild peaks and busts, Thier explains how cryptocurrencies work, elucidates the context and implications of their rise, and debunks the utopian mythology that animates their boosters.<br>
<br>
By showing that systemic exploitation and domination are inherent in a crisis-ridden capitalist economy and are matters of class power, not technology, Thier convincingly cuts through the froth and the lies of financial dystopia. Along the way, she opens up alternative avenues for imagining what economic democracy could actually look like.</p><p></p>

<b>Burnout isn’t solved with perks—it’s solved with language. Learn how leaders can spark relational energy, revive exhausted teams, and build workplaces where people thrive.</b><br><br>Workplace burnout is at historic highs—but what if the solution isn’t more benefits, time off, or wellness programs? What if the real source of energy at work is something leaders use every day: their words?<br><br>In this book, leadership scholars Amy Young and Kim Cameron reveal how everyday communication creates relational energy—the powerful force that fuels engagement, creativity, resilience, and performance across teams.<br><br>Drawing on research from positive psychology and decades of work with organizations, the authors show how simple shifts in communication can transform workplaces from drained and disconnected to energized and thriving.<br><br>In this book, leaders learn how to<br></p><ul><li>use the language of belonging to help employees feel valued, respected, and connected;</li><li>turn everyday conversations into sources of relational energy that boost motivation and performance;</li><li>build trust through respectful dialogue, listening, and authentic presence;</li><li>navigate difficult conversations without draining morale or relationships;</li><li>create positive team interactions that spread energy across organizations; and</li><li>replace burnout cultures with communication practices that spark engagement and well-being.</li></ul><br>Practical, research-driven, and immediately applicable, <i>The Recharge Revolution</i> shows leaders how small changes in language can create extraordinary impact—recharging people, teams, and entire organizations.<p></p>


How to Beat Burnout and Ignite Your Team

Relational Energy


<p>
How have the main traditions of political economy understood the notion of economic and political crisis? To answer this question, Peter Burnham returns to the primary writings of the pre-classical, classical and neoclassical traditions to explore how thinkers from the mercantalists to Habermas and Streeck have theorised the concept of crisis and how these theories can be used to interpret crisis in contemporary capitalism.   Political Economy and Crisis provides an accessible and comprehensive exposition of the main traditions of political economy and an assessment of their competing approaches to understanding and defining capitalism. It reveals the extent to which crisis can be viewed as beneficial or problematical, exogenous or endogenous, a crisis in capitalism, or a crisis of capitalism. The notion of the "financialization of capital" and the character of the global economy is particularly explored.   This book is suitable for introductory courses on the theoretical foundations of political economy and international political economy as well as broader courses on the history of economic thought and the development of the post-Bretton Woods world economy.</p>


Political Economy and Crisis

World Scientific Lecture Notes In Economics And Policy


<p>
This book attempts to understand the operation and properties of 'market economies'. We do this by carefully examining, refining and in some cases extending the major theorems that Microeconomics has established in response to the Walrasian conjecture. We critically evaluate theorems and results, that assert the existence, uniqueness, stability, optimality and empirical relevance of Walrasian equilibrium states. As a result of our work, we attempt to comment on the wisdom of recommending that socio-economic systems operate as a collection of deregulated competitive markets.</p>


Lectures In General Equilibrium Microeconomics


<p>
</p><p><b>A ground-breaking framework that redefines price formation as the structural foundation of sustainability, <i>The Price of Sustainability</i> argues that 'true pricing' can restore long-term and inclusive economic viability.</b><br><br>Through grounding in rigorous fieldwork, financial analysis, and the economic insights of Rudolf Steiner, this book exposes the reality behind today's pricing; that they are systematically falsified and don't reflect the reality of sustaining labour, nature and capital. To counter this, Andrillon introduces the concept of true pricing as a diagnostic framework, discerning when a price reflects viability, and when it conceals impending collapse.<br><br>In the opening chapters, the author guides you through both the contemporary failure of sustainable development and the shortcomings of economic approaches to this issue. Transitioning from diagnosis to construction, Chapter 4 formalizes the concept of a "true price"; it argues that a price is only true if it enables the full reproduction of labour, nature, and capital across time. The following chapters present the operational core of this framework, illustrating how it can be used across sectors as a practical evaluative method.<br><br>Bridging political economy, sustainability science, and economic theory while offering a highly original contribution to debates on degrowth, post-capitalism, and ecological transition, this innovative text is the perfect companion for undergraduate students, postgraduate students, scholars and policy-makers working at the intersection of sustainability, political economy, ecological economics, development studies, and accounting.</p><p></p>


Rethinking Pricing for a Viable Economy

The Price of Sustainability


<p>
</p><p>To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.</p><p></p>

</p><p>The lives of the world's poorest are already harder, hotter, and shorter, thanks to the actions and emissions of the world's richest. But just as the rich world's emissions are finally falling, emissions from poorer countries are set to increase drastically.<br><br>We seem to be caught in an impossible bind-but it's not too late to find a way out. In <i>Just Economics</i>, renowned economists Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo (co-recipients of the 2019 Nobel Prize), and Michael Greenstone propose a radical new approach to combatting the climate crisis. They argue that we cannot make progress without compensating those harmed by climate change and incentivizing developing countries to reduce their emissions.<br><br>Based on meticulous original research and years of fieldwork around the world witnessing and quantifying the real impact of climate change on those most affected, this inspiring work shows it's not impossible to protect the poor while protecting our future-it's just economics.</p><p></p>
