RACHEL MCCULLOCH

This conference proceedings is for the International Conference on Green Policies and Practices: Catalyst or Pressure for Trade and Investment. The conference was organized on 22nd and 23rd November 2024 at University of Economics and Business, Vietnam National University - Hanoi. The conference is the 12th in the series of annual Conferences on International Economic Cooperation and Integration (CIECI), initiated in 2013 by the VNU-UEB. The theme of the conference, "Green Policies and Practices: Catalyst or Pressure for Trade and Investment", reflects one of the most pressing debates of our time: the balance between economic growth and environmental sustainability. As global trade and investment deepen, the urgency of integrating green standards into policies and practices has never been greater.

Green Policies and Practices

A foundational text, this book explores the key components of international macroeconomics at the undergraduate level. In fifteen chapters and five broad sections, the topics covered include the exchange rate, interest rates, and expectations; the intertemporal approach to net exports and the current account; intertemporal monetary models of the price level, the exchange rate, and the balance of payments; multi-sectoral models of real and nominal exchange rates; and topics in international finance. Economics professor and researcher Kit Pasula’s approach provides significant prominence to dynamic models, financial and business cycle models that emphasize expectations, and multi-sectoral models with both traded and non-traded goods. While the approach is consistent with international macroeconomics at the academic level, the material is made highly accessible to undergraduate students and to all new learners using diagrams and equations. Each chapter also includes additional learning items, such as empirical applications, an extensive list of practice questions, and a “Data Analytics” section that provides details of applied exercises. Well-organized, rigorous, and deeply informative, International Macroeconomics improves readers’ understandings of international macroeconomics and the workings of the global economy.

Bringing a Knife to a Gunfight

The US Innovation War with China

Christine Lagarde is a woman of firsts: first female head of the IMF, first female President of the ECB - and all without a classic career path through the world of finance. In her first autobiography, she recounts her rise, her successes and setbacks, and her fight against prejudice. It sheds light on the great crises of the global economy, her courageous decisions, and her distinctive perspective on power, emancipation, and change. Complemented by the voices of her most important companions, the result is a multifaceted portrait of a woman who breaks boundaries and consistently challenges the status quo.

From the award-winning and Sunday Times bestselling author of Material World, a story that will take you from ancient civilizations, empire and globalisation through to the most influential geopolitical issue of our times. The story of trade is the story of humanity. From the copper in Mesopotamian ploughs to the silicon atoms within the chip inside your smartphone, intricate global trading networks have evolved over millennia to fulfil the distinctly human desire to buy and sell.Today, the volume of trade bestriding the planet is unprecedented. Yet, as fractures in the global order emerge - from an era of globalisation and untrammelled flows of goods and money to a new world of restrictions, intervention and, possibly, war - understanding this fundamental shift to the dominant economic consensus is more important than ever.Ed Conway tells this extraordinary story through these three commonplace products - bread, cloth and cars. With a compelling blend of economic history and first-hand access to key figures and institutions, he takes us from policy treaties to ground level to show us the people who make, ship and sometimes smuggle the products we buy on a daily basis.Discover the hidden, shifting trade world behind everything you see around you.

The Ties That Bound Our Past and Could Unravel Our Future

Trade World

“Phenomenal…a jaw-dropping book.” —Jon Stewart, The Daily Show Named by The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Prospect magazine as a best book of the year, this “scrupulously reported” (The New Yorker) and “astonishing” (The Daily Telegraph, London) book rivets with its portrayal of how Apple allowed itself to become dependent on China for a huge percentage of its manufacturing, making it vulnerable and unwittingly laying the groundwork for the Asian superpower to rival the US in technological expertise. After struggling to build products on three continents, Apple turned to China’s seemingly endless supply of cheap labor. It soon deployed thousands of engineers, trained millions of workers, and invested hundreds of billions of dollars to create the most advanced global supply chain. These efforts fueled the iPhone’s dominance—but also laid the foundation for a powerful, state-supported Chinese electronics industry. What began as a business decision evolved into a cautionary tale of global trade, tech rivalry, and national security. Without intending to, Apple helped Beijing acquire technological influence that could now be weaponized—a central concern in the ongoing US-China tech war. Drawing on over two hundred interviews, Patrick McGee exposes never-before-reported details from Silicon Valley to Shenzhen: internal emails, secretive executive meetings, and overlooked voices inside the company’s China operations. You’ll meet the “Gang of Eight” executives tasked with appeasing Beijing, a Mormon missionary who launched Apple retail in China, and a veteran whose dreams of improving factory conditions were crushed by both Apple’s demands and Xi Jinping’s authoritarian crackdown. From Foxconn and Tim Cook to the Chinese Communist Party and Taiwan Semiconductor, this is a revelatory look at how Apple, in seeking efficiency, became entangled in the very politics it once claimed to challenge. For readers of Chip War, American Factory, and The Big Short, Apple in China is a searing examination of corporate power, Chinese nationalism, deglobalization, and the fragile relationship between Silicon Valley and the world’s rising superpower.

Apple in China

This book comprises a collection of essays that delves into the economic history of Europe since the 1970s, offering a fresh perspective on the period by examining the interplay between universalist and particularist claims to validity. By exploring how these claims were constructed, justified, and contested, this book sheds new light on the ways they shaped political and social change in contemporary European history. Through a critical analysis of the economy as a dynamic field, the essays uncover the complexities of universalist and particularist concepts, their interactions, and the tensions they generate, providing a nuanced understanding of their role in shaping modern Europe.Focusing on the intersection of economic history, political theory, and social change, this book will appeal to students, scholars, and readers interested in European history, economic thought, and the evolution of contemporary political ideologies. It is particularly relevant for those studying the historical roots of current debates on globalization, identity, and the challenges to universalist ideals in an increasingly fragmented world.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the European Review of History.

A National Bestseller&nbsp;•&nbsp;Recommended by Financial Times as “What to Read in 2025” &nbsp; “The central argument of Our Dollar, Your Problem—that the greenback’s pre-eminence was never guaranteed and might plausibly be overturned—could hardly be more timely.”—The Economist &nbsp; A leading economist explores the global rise of the U.S. dollar and shows why its future stability is far from assured &nbsp; Our Dollar, Your Problem argues that America’s currency might not have reached today’s lofty pinnacle without a certain amount of good luck. Drawing in part on his own experiences, including with policymakers and world leaders, Kenneth Rogoff animates the remarkable postwar run of the dollar—how it beat out the Japanese yen, the Soviet ruble, and the euro—and the challenges it faces today from crypto and the Chinese yuan, the end of reliably low inflation and interest rates, political instability, and the fracturing of the dollar bloc. Americans cannot take for granted that the Pax Dollar era will last indefinitely, not only because many countries are deeply frustrated with the system, but also because overconfidence and arrogance can lead to unforced errors. Rogoff shows how America’s outsized power and exorbitant privilege can spur financial instability—not just abroad but also at home.

Our Dollar, Your Problem

Darkside
 Economics is a book about a different use of economics - as a weapon to coerce other economies or to defend them from coercion. There is intense interest in economic warfare which is much in the headlines today, but it has a long history of use and abuse.
The weapons covered include sanctions, embargoes, tariffs, technology restrictions, investment policy, financial tools and some other new instruments based on AI and crypto. We look at the history of these practices, explain how they work and estimate their effects, from the point of view of the aggressor, the target or other small countries. This includes strategic games, weapons retaliation, resilience-building, chokepoint mapping and supply chain management.
These tools often have negative economic effects, but they continue to be a central part of both diplomatic and military strategy, and they are happening in the trade wars all around us. Economists, policy-makers, students, the media and the informed public all need to understand them better. The radical ideas and intriguing stories in this short book will help them.

The Art of Economic Warfare

Darkside Economics

This book offers a balanced and rigorous analysis of international trade, exploring its substantial economic benefits while addressing the continuing reality of protectionist measures and trade disputes.It traces the evolution of trade theory from classical concepts like comparative advantage to contemporary models that incorporate economies of scale. The authors elucidate the economic benefits of free trade, including enhanced global efficiency, lower consumer prices, expanded product variety, and the cross-border flow of innovation. The book challenges the oversimplified view that protectionism is merely the dominance of concentrated interests over broader public interests. It systematically examines the comprehensive array of protectionist rationales. These range from domestic political pressures and the infant industry argument to national security concerns and countermeasures against unfair practices, such as dumping. The analysis also uncovers the deeper economic conditions that make protectionist measures appear rational.Providing an essential framework for explaining the persistence of trade disputes and reconciling the tensions between economic principles and political constraints, this book will appeal to academics and practitioners working in international trade and business management.
