Smith A: La Riqueza de las Naciones

La Riqueza de las Naciones

Reclaiming the Moral High Ground

Adam Smith and Modern Economics

Die Politik unserer Zeit verstehen

Nennen wir es böse

Was glauben Sie über den Kapitalismus zu wissen? Seit den 1980er-Jahren prägt die Ideologie des freien Marktes die Welt. Doch hat sie ihre Versprechen wirklich eingelöst? Macht die Globalisierung die Welt wirklich reicher? Produzieren hochbezahlte Manager wirklich bessere Ergebnisse? Macht Liberalisierung arme Länder wirklich wohlhabender? Mit fachlicher Präzision und zugleich verständlicher Sprache zerlegt der Wirtschaftswissenschaftler und Berater Ha-Joon Chang die zentralen Mythen des Kapitalismus. In 23 Thesen und Gegenthesen analysiert er die Grundzüge der Marktwirtschaft des 21. Jahrhunderts und legt dabei die Brüche und Limitationen einer rein marktgetriebenen Gesellschaft offen. Klar strukturiert wird dabei aufgeführt, was man uns erzählt, was man uns verschweigt, und warum wir uns nicht mit den vermeintlich einfachen Antworten zufriedengeben dürfen, die uns die Vertreter der freien Marktwirtschaft glauben machen wollen. Chang liefert das nötige Rüstzeug, um die Halbwahrheiten der neoliberalen Ökonomie zu durchschauen. Für alle, die sich nach einer differenzierten Sichtweise sehnen und ihr Unbehagen gegenüber dem Kapitalismus in klare Erkenntnis verwandeln möchten, ist dieses Buch unverzichtbar. Dieses Buch ist eine Neuauflage des 2010 bei C. Bertelsmann erschienenen Ausgabe mit dem Titel 23 Lügen, die sie uns über den Kapitalismus erzählen.

A Bishop Between Scottish Enlightenment and Counter-Revolution

Seignelay Colbert de Castlehill (1735-1811)

'Doyne Farmer is the world's leading thinker on technological change. For decades he has focused on the question of how we can make sense of the data of today to see where the world is going tomorrow. This wonderful book applies these insights to economics, addressing the big global issues of environmental sustainability, and the well-being and prosperity of people around the world' Max Roser, Founder of Our World in DataWe live in an age of increasing complexity, where accelerating technology and global interconnection hold more promise - and more peril - than any other time in human history. As well as financial crises, issues around climate change, automation, growing inequality and polarization are all rooted in the economy, yet standard economic predictions fail us. Many books have been written about Doyne Farmer and his pioneering work in chaos and complexity theory. Making Sense of Chaos is the first in his own words, presenting a manifesto for doing economics better. In a tale of science and ideas, Farmer fuses his profound knowledge with stories from his life to explain how to harness a scientific revolution to address the economic conundrums facing society. Using big data and ever more powerful computers, we can for the first time apply complex systems science to economic activity, building realistic models of the global economy. The resulting simulations and the emergent behaviour we observe form the cornerstone of complexity economics. This new science, Farmer shows, will allow us to test ideas and make significantly better economic predictions - and, ultimately, create a better world.

The Economics Book

A sweeping history of the Age of Reason, which shows how, although it was a time of progress in many areas, it was also an era of brutality and intolerance, by the author of The Borgias and The Florentines. During the 1600s, between the end of the Renaissance and the start of the Enlightenment, Europe lived through an era known as the Age of Reason. This was a revolutionary period which saw great advances in areas such as art, science, philosophy, political theory and economics. However, all this was accomplished against a background of extreme political turbulence and irrational behaviour on a continental scale in the form of internal conflicts and international wars. Indeed, the Age of Reason itself was born at the same time as the Thirty Years' War, which would devastate central Europe to an extent that would not be seen again until the twentieth century. The period also saw the development of European empires across world and a lucrative new transatlantic commerce began, which brought transformative riches to western European society. However, there was a dark underside to this brilliant wealth: it was dependent upon mass slavery. By exploring all the key events and bringing to life some of the most influential characters of the era, including Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Newton, Descartes, Spinoza, Louis XIV and Charles I, Paul Strathern tells the story of this paradoxical age, while also counting the human cost of imposing the progress and modernity upon which the Western world was built.

How To Think

An entertaining collection of biographical portraits of history's most influential and inspiring economists - from Aristotle to Keynes, and Karl Marx to Friedrich Hayek - and what they can teach us about the world today.

We all live in the economy, whether we know it or not. The current cost-of-living crisis is an economic problem. Brexit might be a political project, but it has already changed how much money we have to spend and which products we can buy. Climate change may seem to be an ecological, or a social, or a technological problem, but it is also an economic problem, because its solution will transform the structure of the global economy.

This book provides a readable and entertaining guide to the great thinkers who help us understand how economics works. It looks at how Aristotle invented the household budget, why Adam Smith wanted to abolish rent, and how modern Nobel prize winners shape the world around us. From the Greeks and Romans to the thinkers behind Enron and the financial crash of 2008, this is the ultimate guide to the greatest economists of the human age, and what their extraordinary thinking can teach us about how to see the world.

Mochrie explores how the largely Western, White and male dominated field of economics is beginning to diversify, and shows how the great ideas of complex economics can be applied to our day-to-day existence.

Great Economists Who Shaped the World and What They Can Teach Us

How to Think Like an Economist

Was ist Wohlstand? Die Beantwortung dieser Frage ist gar nicht so einfach. Denn dieser ökonomische Alltagsbegriff ist nicht eindeutig. In der Ökonomik wird „Wohlstand“ selten definiert, es existieren verschiedene Verständnisse nebeneinander und diese sind in spezifische Narrative eingebettet. Das Lehrbuch bietet einen systematischen Überblick über die Geschichte der Verwendung des Begriffs in der Ökonomik sowie die Schwierigkeiten und Perspektiven der wirtschaftstheoretischen Auseinandersetzung. Durch die differenzierte Systematisierung bietet das Buch Studierenden der Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaften einen perfekten Ausgangspunkt für die tiefere Beschäftigung mit dem Thema Wohlstand.

Wohlstand

Daphne Greenwood presents the first comprehensive introduction to pluralist labor economics. She expands the economics toolbox with theories taken from institutionalist, feminist, social, ecological, and stratification economists. Pluralists, she&nbsp;explains, focus on how formal and informal institutions affect the distribution of productivity dividends-and how this has evolved over time. Pluralists are concerned with job quality as well as financial compensation. They acknowledge the modern-day abundance created by technology, but advocate for institutional changes to direct it in equitable and sustainable ways. &nbsp;Building on the work of many heterodox economists, Greenwood introduces wage and employment models that are embedded in the economy, environment, and society. Beginning with evidence on work and pay in the US today, she explains why tools for analyzing commodity exchange are not sufficient for analyzing labor relationships. She brings bargaining power to the fore, analyses dynamic monopsony, and looks at the role of wealth as well as income in framing opportunities. Throughout the book, Greenwood addresses threats to sustainability and equity from unpaid social costs; institutional changes such as financialization and fissured workplaces; as well as race-ethnicity and gender. Among the possibilities explored for improving work and pay are sectoral bargaining, job guarantees, worker-owned cooperatives, and universal basic income. The first undergraduate-friendly book on its topic,&nbsp;Work, Pay and Sustainability&nbsp;is an important resource for students and scholars alike.
