A revelatory manifesto that transforms climate economics for a new generation

Saito K: Slow Down / B

Slow Down

How Degrowth Communism Can Save the Earth

This book analyses the tendency in international law scholarship and criticism to seek a 'new' international law. Drawing and building on scholarship around the political significance of theological ideas, it argues that underlying this tendency is a relationship between international law and messianic thinking.

The 'New' International Law

Nachhaltigkeit darf sich nicht nur an kurzfristigen Erfolgen oder ausschließlich an finanziellen Ergebnissen orientieren, sondern muss zwangsläufig langfristige Ziele wie Stabilität, Resilienz und Flexibilität verfolgen. Dies gilt auch für die Berücksichtigung ökologischer und sozialer Aspekte und die Umsetzung entsprechender Maßnahmen. Dieses Buch will mit sachlichen und wissenschaftlich fundierten Argumenten sowie unter Berücksichtigung historischer und aktueller Entwicklungen in Wirtschaft und Politik einen Beitrag zur Diskussion um die wichtigen und drängenden Fragen der Nachhaltigkeit leisten. Die aus der Analyse skizzierten 16 Bausteine fassen wesentliche Aspekte und Herausforderungen der Transformation zusammen.Die zentralen Herausforderungen der Nachhaltigkeit wurden in der 2. Auflage noch pointierter und umfassender dargestellt, ebenso die Aufweichung nachhaltigkeitsbezogener EU-Regulierungen (z. B. Berichtspflichten, Lieferkettengesetze, Emissionshandel, Grenzausgleichsmechanismus). Angesichts des weltweiten Rückgangs demokratischer Strukturen und der Ausbreitung autokratischer Machtpolitik wird die politische Dimension tiefgreifend analysiert.Der Inhalt<ul><li>Freiwillig nachhaltig oder hilft nur Druck?</li><li>Was bringen Klimaschutzabkommen und CO₂-Bepreisung?</li><li>Machen Lieferkettengesetze die Welt wirklich besser?</li><li>Ressourcenknappheit und Kreislaufwirtschaft</li><li>Wirtschaftswachstum – Wahn oder Wirklichkeit?</li><li>Wieviel ist genug?

As the world grapples with the impacts of climate change, emerging markets are approaching an inflection point. The heightened vulnerability of economic growth, social stability, and ecological integrity due to severe weather and environmental degradation may have far reaching consequences for developing economies. However, these challenges also present significant opportunities for innovation, resilience, and sustained development. 
Climate Risk and Emerging Markets: Valuation, Volatility, and Portfolio Strategies delves into the unique challenges that emerging economies encounter, including the threats posed by rising sea levels and disruptions to agriculture. Authors provide a thorough analysis of how climate change impacts trade, investments, and overall GDP in these regions. They also explore a range of strategies to enhance adaptability and resilience, such as diversifying investments, utilizing risk management tools, and implementing policy adaptations. Additionally, the collections highlight the potential of green finance and sustainable investment opportunities, showcasing promising industries and successful climate-conscious initiatives. Emphasizing the need for robust policy frameworks and global collaboration, authors advocate for cooperative efforts and present exemplary methodologies to support emerging countries in their transition towards climate resilience. 
With practical case studies and innovative perspectives, this work is a valuable resource for investors, CEOs, policymakers, academics, and forward-thinking individuals, providing insights into the challenges and opportunities of achieving sustainability in emerging markets.

Valuation, Volatility, and Portfolio Strategies

Climate Risk and Emerging Markets

From the author of the groundbreaking exposé Gomorrah comes a book that encourages and challenges the people to stand up for themselves and to not be fooled by the coercive nature of political power. Featuring short biographical sketches of a surprising mix of admired and deplored figures and works from history, this is a book that demands of readers to open one’s eyes and be outraged. The iconic Italian author Roberto Saviano’s latest work of nonfiction is an urgent cry for people to stand up for themselves and the things they believe in, featuring those who have most inspired him—Russian poet Anna Akhmatova, Martin Luther King Jr., the Calipygian Venus, immortalized in marble—alongside those whose actions were most deplorable—Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels and Rwandan radio host Kantano Habimana, who encouraged the 1993-’94 genocide there. Saviano quotes the Italian author and Auschwitz survivor Primo Levi: “I write what I wouldn’t be able to tell anyone.” Saviano, like Levi, embraces his readers within a similar protective halo of intimacy, taking us in his arms to warn us. Other lives and works that Saviano evokes in Shout It Out! are Hypatia, the murdered Alexandrian philosopher, mathematician and astronomer; political theorist Carl Schmitt; trailblazing Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya; Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi; NSA Whistleblower Edward Snowden; 16th century astrology and alchemist Giordano Bruno, burned at the stake by the Inquisition in 1600; Russian poet Anna Akhmatova who chose silence rather than collaboration; Émile Zola; the Brothers Grimm; Martin Luther King; murdered anti-corruption activist Daphne Caruana Galizia; the ancient roman statue of the Callipygian Venus; Terry Bollea (Hulk Hogan); American actress Jean Seberg; Italian filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini; Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels; Rwandan radio host Kantano Habimana; Settimia Spizzichino, one of 50 from the Rome ghetto sent to Auschwitz, and the only survivor; Chinese poet and factory worker Lizhi Xu; Italian-American saint Sister Francesca Saverio Cabrini; Italian architect and London fire victim Gloria Trevisan; George Floyd. Shout It Out dives into world history—and Roberto Saviano’s mind—in a way that constantly surprises.

Understand how circular economy principles reshape business strategy and practice. The Circular Economy by Suzanne Smit and Uthayasankar Sivarajah is a practical and theory-informed textbook for postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students studying Circular Economy, Sustainable Business and related business and management courses. Aligned with contemporary module outcomes, it addresses why circular economy thinking is essential for modern business and how organizations can embed sustainability across core functions. The textbook examines how businesses can plan, implement and manage circular transitions by integrating circular economy principles, metrics and decision-making frameworks into everyday business activity. Structured around four interrelated stages, it explores strategic planning, resource organization, leadership and control mechanisms that enable organizations to move from linear to circular models. Real-world examples from Ikea, the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, The Guararapes Group and Flying Tiger demonstrate how circular strategies are applied in practice across industries and regions. This textbook includes: - A four-part framework covering planning, organizing, leading and controlling circular economy initiatives - Clear explanations of circular economy theories, strategies and performance metrics - Application of circular principles to finance, operations, supply chain management and business storytelling - Real-world examples illustrating how organizations manage circular transitions &gt;Whether studying sustainable business or preparing for roles in strategy, operations or sustainability, this textbook equips students with the knowledge and practical insight needed to support and lead circular transformation in organizations.

This volume, Climate Change and Children's Rights in Zimbabwe: Toward Social Policy-Based Interventions, provides a comprehensive examination of the intersection between climate change and children's rights in Zimbabwe, one of the world's most climate-vulnerable nations. It brings together diverse perspectives from sociology, law, development studies, anthropology, economics, and environmental sciences to challenge conventional approaches that treat children as passive victims of climate impacts. The book interrogates climate vulnerability through multiple dimensions, from legal frameworks and theoretical foundations to sectoral impacts and innovative adaptation strategies, showcasing transformative pathways for child-centred climate action that recognises children as rights-holders and active agents of change.\
The book outlines critical aspects and issues that must be understood and addressed to protect and advance children's rights in the face of accelerating environmental change. Attention is given to both persistent structural inequalities and innovative opportunities for building resilience through rights-based, gender-transformative, and community-grounded approaches. Through case studies spanning diverse districts, including Lupane, Bikita, Mbire, Chivi, Mashonaland Central, Gutu, Goromonzi, Zvimba, and others, it highlights how climate impacts manifest differently across Zimbabwe's varied ecological and socio-economic landscapes, affecting children's health, education, nutrition, protection, and overall well-being. It provides foundational perspectives into climate justice imperatives, multispecies justice frameworks, legal and policy gaps, and opportunities for transformative social policy that centres children's agency and Indigenous knowledge systems. The book is of interest to researchers, climate justice scholars, child rights advocates, development practitioners, humanitarian organisations, and policymakers committed to implementing more effective, equitable, and contextually appropriate climate responses that place children's rights at the centre of all climate action across Zimbabwe and the broader African continent.

Gesundheit, Kommunikation und Gesellschaft

Die Public Health Humanities verstehen Gesundheit und Krankheit als kulturell und sozial geprägte Phänomene. Sie ergänzen die empirisch orientierte Multidisziplin Public Health um geisteswissenschaftliche und künstlerische Perspektiven. Dabei fragen sie nach der Bedeutung des Künstlerischen für die Gesundheit, interessieren sich für moralische, soziale und kulturelle Dimensionen von Gesundheit und Krankheit in Kunst bzw. Medien und bieten theoretische Zugänge für gesundheitliche Analysen an. Bezugsdisziplinen sind u.a. Kunst-, Kultur- und Medienwissenschaften, Philosophie und Geschichte. Die Beiträger*innen leuchten das Spektrum unterschiedlicher Perspektiven und Zugänge der Public Health Humanities erstmals auf Deutsch aus.

The Che Guevara Library

En una carta a su madre en 1954, un joven Ernesto Guevara escribió: "Las Américas serán el teatro de mis aventuras de una manera mucho más significativa de lo que yo hubiera creído". En America Latina se&nbsp;narra la historia de esas aventuras, trazando la evolución del Che desde el joven e impresionable estudiante de medicina al "guerrillero heroico", asesinado a sangre fría en Bolivia. A lo largo de diecisiete años, esta antología se nutre de los archivos personales de su familia y ofrece lo mejor de los escritos del Che: ejemplos de su periodismo, ensayos, discursos, cartas e incluso poemas. A medida que el Che documenta sus primeros viajes por América Latina, su participación en las revoluciones guatemalteca y cubana, y su ascenso a la prominencia internacional bajo el mando de Fidel Castro, vemos cómo su ferviente compromiso con la justicia social moldeó y fue moldeado por el continente al que llamó hogar. Casi la mitad de este libro se publica por primera vez y es anterior a la llegada del Che a Cuba con la expedición guerrillera de Fidel Castro en 1956. También se incluyen sus notas para su libro inacabado, The Social Role of Doctors in Latin America.
