Anuna de Wever: Quel monde pour demain ?

Quel monde pour demain ?

Dialogue entre générations

How fiscal and economic policy choices reflect moral points of view How much of your hard-earned money is it fair for the state to tax? What public services should the state finance with that money? Surveys show that people care more about fairness than efficiency in fiscal and economic matters, and that they are increasingly anxious about inequalities of income, wealth, and opportunities. It’s clear that the choices made by policymakers about who benefits from a given economic policy are also moral choices. In this book, economist Paolo Mauro looks at the interplay between moral perspectives and policy decisions. After analyzing how the role of the state has evolved in response to economic transformations and changing notions of good government, he traces the rising gap between actual practice and what citizens consider to be fair taxation and public service provision policies. Mauro connects fiscal policy trends to insights from other fields, including ideas from moral philosophy, social science surveys on attitudes toward taxation and public services, and studies of corruption. He offers a concise but compelling overview of philosophy relevant to fiscal issues; considers how people perceive inequalities; traces the moral choices made by states as they develop new policies on taxation and spending; and looks at opportunities and incentives for malfeasance within the system. Building on this, Mauro calls for policymakers to engage with a wider range of moral viewpoints. If we are open to ideas from a variety of disciplines, he argues, we can chart a path for fiscal policies that will help preserve democracy, combat inequality, and promote social cohesion.

A Global Perspective on Morality and Public Finance

The State and Your Hard-Earned Money

“Darkly addictive with a blistering pace and puzzle-box structure” —Katy Hays, New York Times bestselling author of The Cloisters A page-turning suspense debut about a woman infamous for escaping a cult as a teenager, who finds her future threatened when dangerous secrets come back to haunt her—perfect for fans of Jessica Knoll and&nbsp;The Girls.Everybody knows the story. Nobody knows the truth…Lucy Golden is a true-crime icon, infamous for the murder she committed while escaping a California cult twenty years ago. But as everyone in Los Angeles knows, fame is fleeting, and Lucy and her story are always just one news cycle away from obscurity. Not to mention, she’s fending off a stalker and moderating an icy feud between her acclaimed photographer mother and her scandalous rock star sister. Worst of all, online trolls are asking increasingly threatening questions about the legendary crime. Questions that could tear her life apart.So when a hotshot documentarian makes her case the subject of his next film, Lucy sees a chance to silence any doubters once and for all. But as filming begins, she must return to the California desert and come face-to-face with a cast of players from her torrid history. Of course, the past is never what it seems, and long-buried secrets soon collide with present-day threats. Can Lucy stop her critics from digging up the truth before it’s too late? And how far will she go to protect the story she’s been telling—and selling—all along?Told in a narrative split between the present day and Lucy’s hit memoir about her fated summer in the cult,&nbsp;Paper Cut&nbsp;combines psychological suspense with coming-of-age Californian cult noir and a sharp examination of the true-crime phenomenon. As incisive as it is propulsive, this mesmerizing debut will keep readers hooked until the last page.

Sustainable Perspectives in Business, Economics and Education

Imagine a world in which every Uber driver and Amazon worker shared in the company's profits. Or one where millions of farmers owned a stake in the brands that sell their goods. This seems like a far-fetched utopia. It doesn't have to be.In People's Capitalism, NYU professors Hans Taparia and Bruce Buchanan argue that when firms are free of profit-maximizing external investors, something profound happens: People, not profits, come first. That's "people's capitalism."Everyday people--drivers, factory workers, healthcare providers, ranchers, coffee farmers, and customers of every kind of good--are already taking back ownership and control of the businesses that affect their lives. When they do, incomes rise, prices fall, health improves, and communities thrive. With eye-opening stories, deep research, and lessons drawn from businesses already actualizing these ideas, People's Capitalism reveals how to use the tools of the marketplace to take back our economy.

'Exceptionally interesting' Alain de Botton 'A book that will transform how you understand human behaviour' Thomas Erikson 'Insightful and entertaining' Cal Newport 'Fascinating ... You'll never again view your own world in quite the same way' Ian Stewart Can physics change your life? It already has. In The Art of Physics, Zahaan Bharmal explains eight ideas from physics that have transformed his view of everyday life and will do the same for you. Far from being abstract, he argues, physics can help us answer very human questions, questions like: Why are some relationships unstable, while others last a lifetime? Why does inequality persist? And why do we all make so many irrational decisions? Drawing on quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, chaos and complexity theory, materials science and more, The Art of Physics reveals the hidden, surprising, and sometimes beautiful ways in which physics can help us to make sense of an unpredictable world. Ultimately, it shows how by embracing the paradoxes and uncertainty at the core of physics, we can unlock a deeper understanding of ourselves and our universe. A deeply personal and thoroughly entertaining tour of life, the universe, and everything.

Two of the world's leading researchers on behavior and decision-making join forces to equip readers with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to live their fullest human life in an age of powerful technology.We have more choice than ever before yet feel less in control. This book is about fighting back—individually and collectively—and becoming the best of ourselves.Drawing on over 1,000 experiments run across more than seventy countries, Halpern and Costa pair rigorous scientific findings with compelling stories, to pull back the curtain on the psychological, systemic, and technological forces that shape our decisions and behavior. More than that, they outline practical ways to make better decisions and put humans back in the driver’s seat with agency to shape—rather than be manipulated by—the forces around us.Super-Human unfolds across three parts: <ul><li>Human. What can each of us do to sharpen our own decision-making and strengthen our agency?</li><li>Supra-Human. How can we design social networks, markets, and institutions to expand human agency?</li><li>Super-Human. How can we shape artificial intelligence so that it amplifies human capability and agency rather than replacing or eroding it?</li></ul>Our minds have been shaped by the technologies and institutions of our ancestors, in ways they could not have anticipated. We have an advantage they lacked: we can see the choices coming. Super-Human ultimately asks us to make the biggest choice of all: in an age when machines can “think,” act, and even “feel” on our behalf—what kind of humans do we want to be? Can we become both more super, and more human?

Zur Einführung (Junius)

Montaigne ist hierzulande äußerst präsent. Dass seine Schriften philosophisch zu lesen sind, ist mittlerweile Konsens, und ihre philosophische Rehabilitierung verbindet sich eng mit der Renaissance des Skeptizismus. Diese Einführung stellt Montaignes Leben, Werk und Wirkung auf der Grundlage der aktuellen Forschungslage vor. Berücksichtigt werden auch Nebenwerke des Autors wie sein italienisches Reisetagebuch sowie seine engsten Vertrauten Étienne de La Boétie und Marie de Gournay. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit widmet der Band einzelnen Aspekten der Essais wie Skepsis, Sprache, Metaphorik, Begrifflichkeit und präsentiert ihre Entstehung und Editionsgeschichte sowie ihre Wirkungs- und Übersetzungsgeschichte so umfassend, dass er auch als Leitfaden für eine vertiefte Beschäftigung mit Montaigne dienen kann.
