Khanna Parag: The Future Is Asian

The Future Is Asian

Career Comedown

Proven Strategies for Every Step of Your Financial Life

The Wealth Ladder

An acclaimed New York Times Magazine writer brings us into the world of the controversial technology firm Palantir and its very colorful and outspoken CEO, Alex Karp, tracing the ascent of Big Data, the rise of surveillance technology, and the shifting global balance of power in the 21st century. Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends, and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the US government in the war on terrorism—an early investor was the CIA—Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the US military, dozens of federal agencies, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the twenty-first century. Its CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he’s a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir’s work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp’s close friend and Palantir cofounder Peter Thiel. In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger explores the world of Alex Karp, Palantir, and the future that they are leading us toward. It is an urgent and illuminating work about one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and powerful companies, whose technology is at the leading edge of the surveillance state.

Compliance für die Praxis

Zum Werk Moderne elektronische Kommunikationsmittel ermöglichen es einer Vielzahl von Nutzern, jederzeit miteinander zu kommunizieren und Inhalte zu teilen, ohne dass es dazu eines Verbindungsaufbaus im Einzelfall bedarf. Längst hat die bunte Welt der sozialen Medien auch die Unternehmen erreicht: Die Wirtschaft hat erkannt, dass soziale Medien beispielsweise im Marketing, Vertrieb und Personalmanagement, aber auch in den Bereichen Forschung, Entwicklung und Wissensmanagement Kostenvorteile bieten bzw. neue Märkte eröffnen können. Den wirtschaftlichen Potentialen stehen indes juristische Schwierigkeiten gegenüber, die in dieser Neuerscheinung praxisgerecht aufgearbeitet und erläutert werden, zum Beispiel:<ul><li>Was darf der Arbeitgeber verbieten, was muss er verbieten?</li><li>Was sind die Folgen eines Verstoßes gegen Vorgaben des Unternehmens?</li><li>Wie können Social Media Guidelines sinnvoll aussehen?</li><li>Hat der Betriebsrat mitzubestimmen?</li></ul> Vorteile auf einen Blick Kompakte und praxisnahe Darstellung<ul><li>der Voraussetzungen und Grenzen der Nutzung von Social Media im Betrieb</li><li>der datenschutzrechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen</li><li>der arbeitsrechtlichen Sanktionen</li><li>von Verstößen</li><li>enthält Mustervereinbarungen und Klauselhinweise</li></ul> Zur Neuauflage Seit der letzten Auflage gab es nicht nur zahlreiche Entscheidungen des EuGH, BGH und anderer Gerichte zu Social Media im Betrieb, auch Neuerscheinungen in der Literatur wurden in der Neuauflage des Werkes berücksichtigt. Insbesondere im Bereich der Gesetzgebung waren erhebliche Entwicklungen zu verzeichnen (DDG als Nachfolger von TMG/NetzDG; TDDDG, ehemals TTDSG). Zu deren erfolgreichen Implementierung bietet das Werk mit seiner kompakten und praxisnahen Darstellung das nötige Rüstzeug zur Abwehr von Sanktionen und negativer Resonanzen Zielgruppe: Für Personalverantwortliche, Compliance-officer, Rechtsabteilungen, Rechtsanwaltschaft, Betriebsräte.

Overseas Aid 2nd Edition

Palgrave Studies in Public Debt, Spending, and Revenue

This book examines the interplay of professional norms and political accountability in the process of making decisions about whether, how, and how much debt state and local governments should incur. The careful analysis of accountability in actual decisions, focusing particularly on whether and how individual and collective decision-making behavior responds to general (stipulated) norms and situational (negotiated) expectations in their broader social contexts, is a familiar approach in the study of management and public organizations generally, but has not been extensively applied to this area of public financial decision making. Political economists, especially those identified with the public-choice approach, have done extensive macro-level normative and theoretical analysis of public debt, but not in an empirically rich fashion. This book therefore constitutes a missing link that uses analyses of selected cases to advance conceptual understandings of organizational accountability spaces in general, and decisions to incur public indebtedness and the implications of those decisions specifically, by examining the intersection of the macro, meso, and micro levels of expectations for and practices of public financial decision making.

Debt Reckoning

This open access book critically analyses a wide range of consumer law issues generated or exacerbated by the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things challenges many of the dichotomies which have shaped current laws: goods-services, hardware-software, tangible-intangible, online-offline. The book focuses on 4 specific challenges: things-as-service, liability, bricking of physical devices through software control, and the potential for enhanced personalisation, especially for digital assistants. The chapters analyse specific applications such as smart homes, connected cars, and consumer wearables with a view to providing innovative solutions to the new challenges posed by the Internet of Things, and to steer the development of the Internet of Things in a fairer direction. As well as offering an important analysis of the potential for smart consumer laws in the Internet of Things, the book also provides important insights into the growing divergence between Germany's and the UK's consumer laws since Brexit. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by UKRI (Arts and Humanities Research Council) and the German Research Foundation (DFG).

Lessons from Germany and the United Kingdom

From Smart Technologies to Smart Consumer Law

From the author of A People's Guide to Capitalism, a clear-eyed look at cryptocurrencies from the left, cutting through the glitz and the scams to reveal how crypto mirrors and exacerbates the crises of capitalism. 
 
Cryptocurrencies have gone from being fringe investments relevant only to hardcore adherents to a $3.7 trillion industry with a direct line to Donald Trump's White House. The promises of crypto are wide-ranging, preying on a basic reality: people are disaffected by an economic and financial system that has excluded them and wonder if cryptocurrencies can offer a more transparent and inclusive alternative. 
 
Challenge any of these notions, or raise concerns about crypto's associations with money laundering, the speculative bubbles ballooning around these assets, or the disastrous climate implications of the technology behind crypto, and you'll be told by proselytizers that you simply don't understand. That complexity is often intentional, serving as a shield from critical scrutiny. 
 
Enter Crypto-Capitalism, Hadas Thier's deft, accessible examination of the rise and fall and rise again of crypto. Drawing on years of reporting on the industry, its insiders, and the ordinary people impacted by its wild peaks and busts, Thier explains how cryptocurrencies work, elucidates the context and implications of their rise, and debunks the utopian mythology that animates their boosters. 
 
By showing that systemic exploitation and domination are inherent in a crisis-ridden capitalist economy and are matters of class power, not technology, Thier convincingly cuts through the froth and the lies of financial dystopia. Along the way, she opens up alternative avenues for imagining what economic democracy could actually look like.

The New Financial Dystopia

Crypto-Capitalism

In a movement-defining book, the "godmother of the current moment of dissatisfaction with establishment politics" (The New York Times) tells the story of the rising anti-monopoly movement and charts a course to a democratic future In a short, sharp political book, The Nation magazine's "Anti-Monopolist" columnist and "a prophet of the resurgent left" (Franklin Foer) explains the battle between the forces of oligarchy and the rise of the new anti-monopoly movement. Using the stories of modern anti-monopoly heroes including Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan; blueberry farmer Hugh Kent, who turned his battle with Driscoll's into a farmers' movement; and Doha Mekki, the daughter of a Sudanese asylum seeker who took on Google and won; Teachout explains how anti-monopoly cuts across traditional political lines and gives real teeth to economic populism.Teachout, a scholar of the law of democracy and a politician whose run for governor of New York State shocked the political establishment, argues that monopoly is the architecture of private tyranny, and that breaking corporate power is essential to building a new democracy. From AI to agriculture, healthcare to energy, Americans understand that corporate concentration doesn't just cause inequality; it organizes power. Anti-Monopoly gives that feeling a name, a history, and a way forward. After a spate of books out of the Abundance movement arguing that we need to remove local democracy and focus on efficiency at scale, this book provides a sharp counterpoint.
