Angeloni Ignazio: Money In Crisis

Money In Crisis

The Return of Instability and the Myth of Digital Cash

A Realist’s Guide to the Economy and How We Can Fix it

Why We’re Getting Poorer

Elements in Global Development Studies

Guestworker migration has become an increasingly prominent feature within the economic landscape of the Asia-Pacific. Longstanding regional disparities have underscored the emergence of fragile remittance economies where a structural reliance on labour-export has offered an unsustainable 'fix' for stubborn developmental challenges. Combining political-economic and Foucauldian frames of analysis, this Element reconciles the macroeconomic contradictions of remittance economies with the political logics bound up in emigration policymaking, contending that new modalities of governance have emerged in the transition from developmental to emigration states. Comparing the policy histories of four diverse remittance economies in the region - Myanmar, the Philippines, Samoa, and Sri Lanka - it frames emigration policies as complex, inward-facing interventions that simultaneously promote and constrain mobility to address counterpoised economic and political pressures. Important variations are explored though the example of gendered migration bans, whereby emigration states have situated women's bodies as sites for resolving contextually specific social tensions accompanying labour-export.

A Reader's Companion

The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money

Why do we use eighty-year-old metrics to understand today’s economy? The ways that statisticians and governments measure the economy were developed in the 1940s, when the urgent economic problems were entirely different from those of today. In The Measure of Progress, Diane Coyle argues that the framework underpinning today’s economic statistics is so outdated that it functions as a distorting lens, or even a set of blinkers. When policymakers rely on such an antiquated conceptual tool, how can they measure, understand, and respond with any precision to what is happening in today’s digital economy? Coyle makes the case for a new framework, one that takes into consideration current economic realities. Coyle explains why economic statistics matter. They are essential for guiding better economic policies; they involve questions of freedom, justice, life, and death. Governments use statistics that affect people’s lives in ways large and small. The metrics for economic growth were developed when a lack of physical rather than natural capital was the binding constraint on growth, intangible value was less important, and the pressing economic policy challenge was managing demand rather than supply. Today’s challenges are different. Growth in living standards in rich economies has slowed, despite remarkable innovation, particularly in digital technologies. As a result, politics is contentious and democracy strained. Coyle argues that to understand the current economy, we need different data collected in a different framework of categories and definitions, and she offers some suggestions about what this would entail. Only with a new approach to measurement will we be able to achieve the right kind of growth for the benefit of all.

Counting What Really Matters

The Measure of Progress

A smart, incisive take-down of the bogus claims being made about so-called 'artificial intelligence', exposing the real harm these technologies do to our jobs, health, society and environment, who stands to gain from them, and how to fight back. Is AI going to take over the world? Have scientists created an artificial lifeform that can think on its own? Is it going to replace all our jobs, even creative ones, like doctors, teachers and care-workers? Are we about to enter an age where computers are better than humans at everything? The answers to these questions, as the expert authors of The AI Con make clear, are ''no'', ''they wish'', ''LOL'', and ''definitely not''. In fact, these fears are all symptoms of the hype being used by tech corporations to justify data theft, motivate surveillance capitalism, and devalue human creativity so they can replace meaningful work with jobs that treat people like machines. Meanwhile, across healthcare, education, media, government and law-enforcement, 'AI' products are already being introduced that are unreliable, ineffective, unjust and dangerous. Packed with real-world examples, pithy arguments and expert insights, The AI Con arms you to spot AI hype in all its guises, expose the exploitation and power-grabs it aims to hide, and push back against it at work and in your daily life.

How to Fight Big Tech’s Hype and Create the Future We Want

The AI Con

As a result of the reverberations of the crisis in credit markets world wide, investors in financial markets and institutions have witnessed mammoth slides in global stock markets, the privatization and state sponsored takeover of financial institutions and, in an effort to restore equilibrium to markets, the temporary ban on the practice of the short selling of shares in certain financial institutions. To that end, the rationale behind this book is to respond to the dynamics of this much changed financial market environment by providing a text that presents a more up-to-date description of financial markets - one that offers more current insight into the behaviour of financial markets and financial sector institutions than is currently represented in available books on the subject. Particular strengths include:An international focus with detailed analysis of financial markets in mainland Europe and Asia, not just the Anglo-Saxon worldAn emphasis on risk management and financial regulationA concentration on behavioural aspects of financial marketsWedding this new approach to all the customary hallmarks of a typical intermediate financial markets and institutions textbook, its overall aim is to help students in degree programmes specializing in Economics and Finance, Banking, Accounting, or Business and Management appreciate the value of financial markets and institutions and to be able to use techniques in an up to date context.

Financial Markets and Institutions

"Since the Crypto Winter the regulation of crypto-assets is at the centre of policy action worldwide. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the EU's regulation of crypto-assets. In addition to a chapter-by-chapter guide to MiCA, the book covers the DLT Pilot Regulation, cybersecurity (DORA), anti-money laundering, and private law"--

"Integrates research in three fields -welfare economics, decision theory, and econometrics- to address uncertainty in the formation of public policy. Although all three fields are central to planning under uncertainty, they have interacted little with one another. This book enables researchers to interact constructively and build on mutual concerns"--

Discourse on Social Planning under Uncertainty

"Economists dream of equilibrium. It's time to wake up. In mainstream economics, markets are ideal if competition is perfect. When supply balances demand, economic maturity is orderly and disturbed only by shocks. These ideas are rooted in doctrines going back thousands of years yet, as James K. Galbraith and Jing Chen show, they contradict the foundations of our scientific understanding of the physical and biological worlds. Entropy Economics discards the conventions of equilibrium and presents a new basis for thinking about economic issues, one rooted in life processes--an unequal world of unceasing change in which boundaries, plans, and regulations are essential. Galbraith and Chen's theory of value is based on scarcity, and it accounts for the power of monopoly. Their theory of production covers increasing and decreasing returns, uncertainty, fixed investments over time, and the impact of rising resource costs. Together, their models illuminate key problems such as trade, finance, energy, climate, conflict, and demography. Entropy Economics is a thrilling framework for understanding the world as it is and will be keenly relevant to the economic challenges of a world threatened with disorder"--

SpringerBriefs in Regional Science

This book analyzes regional business cycles in Latin America. The authors explain the nature of regional business cycles and discuss different sources of regional economic fluctuations such as technology changes, natural disasters, or supply and demand shocks. Presenting case studies on Brazil, Chile and Mexico, the authors examine the co-movement of regional business cycles as well as the differing responses of regional economies to external shocks due to regional characteristics such as availability of natural resources, and the degree of integration into national and global markets. This short book appealto students and scholars as well as policy makers interested in regional growth processes in developing countries.
