Law, Development, and Practice

Contributions to Economics

Artificial intelligence is not just transforming the economy; it is fundamentally redefining the core principles of economic theory.
From the Phillips Curve to portfolio optimization, and from the Laffer Curve to Lewis’s dual-sector model, the core frameworks that have shaped economics for over a century are now evolving through intelligent machines, algorithms, and data-driven decision-making. In this work, Tshilidzi Marwala reanalyzes 18 fundamental principles of economic thought, such as demand and supply, rational choice, information asymmetry, mechanism design, agency theory, comparative advantage, growth, governance, and market efficiency, from an AI perspective.
Drawing on economics, artificial intelligence, finance, public policy, and global governance, the book explains how AI is changing productivity, labor markets, inflation, competition, taxation, and the relationships between states, companies, and citizens. It shows that traditional ideas based on scarcity, human labor, limited rationality, and static institutions are gradually being replaced by a modern economic framework driven by intelligent capital, algorithmic coordination, and autonomous systems. The outcome is a comprehensive and timely framework for understanding the political economy of the AI era, detailed in analysis, globally oriented, and essential for policymakers, scholars, business leaders, and anyone seeking to understand how intelligence is becoming the primary driver of economic transformation.

How AI Rewrites Theory, Markets, and Policy

Intelligent Economies

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.

Eight Principles to Craft a More Conscious, Collaborative, and Connected Future

Artisan Economics

The legal concepts that can fundamentally inform the economics of institutions In Legal Institutionalism, the eminent economist Geoffrey Hodgson proposes a new analytic approach for understanding modern economic institutions. Law helps to constitute some of the key features of modern market economies. Moreover, there is evidence that many people believe that obeying the law is important in itself, especially when it is deemed just, legitimate, and uncorrupt. Consequently, he argues, the role of law must be considered in analyses of the nature and dynamics of modern economic institutions and the motivations of economic agents. Hodgson lays out the basic approach and intellectual assumptions of legal institutionalism, citing such thinkers as Adam Smith and Karl Marx as well as insights from institutional economics, law, philosophy, psychology, and social theory. He considers how legal institutions emerged and evolved throughout history, stressing their importance in large-scale, complex economies. Informal rules and relations are vital as well, he explains, but these often rely on face-to-face contact, with smaller numbers of people. He shows that by examining relevant legal rules and relations alongside important informal rules, we can improve our understanding of the nature and role of property, contracts, money, and firms. Revisiting the socialist calculation debate on the feasibility of socialist planning, Hodgson argues that both sides paid insufficient attention to legal issues and underestimated the importance and inevitability of mixed economies. This milestone work by Hodgson has major implications for both theory and policy, suggesting new approaches to economic development, the theory of the firm, and countering the policy extremes of markets versus states.

A Multidisciplinary Approach to the Analysis of Modern Economies

Legal Institutionalism

A practical, clever, down-to-earth guide to making decisions big or small, fast—from writer, journalist, and nationally acclaimed decision coach Nell McShane Wulfhart. We are drowning in choices—from major life decisions like whether to move, marry, or change careers, to relentless daily dilemmas about what to wear, eat, say, or do. In a world that glorifies optimization and “smart” choices, we’ve wound up paralyzed, deferring, deliberating, and overthinking to the point of exhaustion.&nbsp; Decision-making has become a source of stress instead of empowerment. Nell McShane Wulfhart is here to change that. In Decide in an Hour, she tackles the epidemic of indecision head-on and offers readers a lifeline: the tools to make better choices quickly, without feeling guilty, spiraling, or second-guessing. In this book, Wulfhart teaches us how to: <ul><li>identify the decision we’re actually making (a shockingly common obstacle)</li><li>eliminate noise and make the call—fast</li><li>follow through with confidence, even when others disagree</li><li>make the most common major life choices (career, relationships, kids, where to live) through the use of a decision-making field guide</li></ul> Equal parts wise, warm, and no-nonsense, Decide in an Hour offers clarity and momentum for how to start making smart, confident decisions today.

Das Ehrenamt - Engagement zielgerichtet fördern und stärken.

Innovationen im Ehrenamt sind dringend notwendig. Nicht nur demographische Veränderungen, sondern auch ein weitreichender Wertewandel führen zum Vereinssterben in unseren Kommunen. Es gilt, ehrenamtliches Engagement zu sichern und zu fördern und gleichzeitig Vereine zu stärken. Hier sind nicht nur die Büger:innen gefragt, sondern auch die Gemeinden selbst. Wie kann das Ehrenamt konkret gestärkt und wie können die Menschen zur Übernahme von Verantwortung in Vereinsvorständen motiviert werden? Welche Möglichkeiten haben die Kommunen, formell und informell mit Vereinen, Bürgerinitiativen und Interessengemeinschaften zu kooperieren?

Prof. Dr. Oliver Junk ist Professor für Kommunalrecht an der Hochschule Harz. Ehrenamtlich ist er Vorsitzender des Harzklubs e. V. In seinem Forschungsprojekt "VITAL" untersucht er aktuell in einem Zeitraum von zwei Jahren die Gelingensbedingungen für gute Kooperationen zwischen Kommunen und Ehrenamt und erstellt praxistaugliche Handlungsempfehlungen für Kommunen und Vereine.

This innovative book explores the world of 3D printing from the perspective of intellectual property law, tackling theory and practice. As 3D printing digitises tangibles and equips individual users with access to design and manufacturing tools, it also raises several pressing legal and policy issues. Does the IP framework - largely designed in the analogue age - adequately regulate the operation of the technology? How should the law respond to piracy in a digital environment where copying is the norm, not the exception? What are the community's experiences and views regarding IP? Is the law actually a concern? To fully address these questions, the book begins with a contextual overview of 3D printing's history and broader socio-economic impact. It explains why the 'desktop' side of the technology is likely to be especially problematic when it comes to IP law and highlights key areas of concern. Drawing on its rich empirical data featuring world-leading experts, engineers, lawyers and users, it offers illuminating insights into the experiences and perspectives of stakeholders before finally considering potential regulatory responses. Original and forward-looking, this book is essential reading for academics, practitioners, 3D printing users and any reader interested in the rapidly evolving field of law and technology.

For much of the past century, with the U.S. considered the world leader in innovation, its economic growth based on continued creative contributions from its citizens was a given. But this privileged position is under threat. In recent years, the U.S. has lagged behind other countries on several innovation measures, and including an ability to compete against international cities for venture-capital backed startups and creative talent. The arrival of AI only adds urgency to the questions of whether the U.S. will continue to be an innovation leader, and whether that leadership will advance human flourishing. &nbsp;&nbsp;The Creativity Tax draws on neuroscience, psychology, economics, law, and public policy to make the case that reducing poverty and inequality through a federal guaranteed income is the missing key to unlocking our collective creative potential and expanding our innovative capacity. It explains how policy inaction in addressing poverty and inequality is taxing our innovative capacities in ways that threaten our continued ability to produce high quality, socially beneficial innovation. The book also reveals how these questions of innovation leadership are deeply entwined with questions of who gets to innovate in this country and what kinds of innovation is produced—innovation for innovation's sake that benefits a few, or truly useful innovation that advances human flourishing. &nbsp;&nbsp;Synthesizing a broad range of scholarship, Stephanie Plamondon makes a novel argument for addressing poverty and inequality, not only as a matter of social welfare policy, but also for our nation's continued progress as an innovation leader.

Critical Interventions

Pedagogy and the Struggle for Democracy brings together a selection of Henry Giroux's most incisive essays, analysing neoliberal fascism, public pedagogy, cultural politics, empire, and the politics of disposability, offering both a powerful critique of authoritarianism and a compelling vision of democratic resistance.One of the leading theorists of critical pedagogy and cultural politics, Giroux argues that authoritarianism is rooted not only in political institutions but also in culture, where power operates through education, media, language, historical memory, and the production of common sense to shape consciousness and identity. Developing the concept of neoliberal fascism, he demonstrates how market fundamentalism, authoritarian governance, and cultural power have fused into a new historical formation. Against this politics of domination, Giroux advances critical pedagogy as an essential moral and political practice for cultivating critical thought, collective agency, and the democratic capacities necessary to challenge authoritarianism and transform society.Essential reading for students and scholars of authoritarianism, fascism, neoliberalism, critical pedagogy, contemporary politics, education, cultural studies, political theory, and democracy, this book offers both an indispensable introduction to Giroux's thought and a timely resource for understanding, and resisting, the contemporary authoritarian turn.

In Zeiten von Gender Pay Gap, Fachkräftemangel und Generation Z benötigen wir faire, transparente und diskriminierungsfreie Entgeltsysteme. Bisherige Vergütungssysteme sind längst nicht mehr zeitgemäß, in denen soziale Kompetenzen und Belastungen vernachlässigt wurden. Die EU-Entgelttransparenzrichtlinie, die bis Juni 2026&nbsp; geschlechterneutrale Entgeltsystem vorschreibt, setzt dafür neue Standards.&nbsp;
Dr. Stefan Waschmann ist selbstständiger Berater für Entgeltsysteme und Vorkämpfer für "Fair Pay". Sein Buch hilft dabei, Schwächen in Vergütungssystemen zu erkennen, analysiert die durch die Entgelttransparenzrichtlinie erforderlichen Veränderungen und skizziert ein diskriminierungsfreies Fair-Pay-Gehaltssystem. Er versteht dabei die von der EU vorgegebenen Kriterien zur Funktionsbewertung als Chance. Diese bilden die Grundlage für eine Equal-Pay-Stellenbewertung, die heutigen Anforderungen wie Innovation, Anpassungsfähigkeit, psychosozialen Belastungen und sozialer Verantwortung gerecht wird.
Inhalte:
<ul><li>Der hartnäckige Gender Pay Gap</li><li>Bestandsaufnahme: die zerklüfteten Gehaltssysteme Mitteleuropas</li><li>Paradigmenwechsel Entgelttransparenz-/Lohntransparenzrichtlinie (ETRL)</li><li>Fair-Pay-Stellenbewertung: Grundsätze, Struktur und Kriterien</li><li>Die optimale Lohnkurve</li><li>Abgeltung atypischer Arbeitszeiten</li></ul>

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.
