Arden T: The Invisible Grief of Job Loss

The Invisible Grief of Job Loss

"Hope is not infrastructure."Layoffs have become a normal operating tool of modern companies. The system around them is extensive: legal review, HR scripts, severance templates, access shutdown, communications plans. The system around the person being let go is almost nothing-a meeting invite, a frozen laptop, a final paycheck, and a race against the clock.Impacted is a clear-eyed account of that imbalance, written from inside the layoff. It moves from the night before a layoff to the machinery that produces one, and argues that the deepest failure is not the layoff itself, but the missing infrastructure between employment and re-employment.Drawing on lived experience and hard questions about trust, risk, and dignity at work, it makes the case for the transition layer that should already exist-and for treating job loss as the predictable risk it has become, not a private emergency people are left to survive on luck alone.For everyone who has ever been told they were "impacted."

The American Indian Youth Literature and Morris Award-winning author of&nbsp;Rez Ball&nbsp;returns with the unforgettable story of a gifted young Ojibwe athlete learning to ride in his father’s footsteps while practicing for a skateboarding championship.When Bryce’s mom walks out on her abusive boyfriend and back into jail for breaking her probation, he’s left facing the summer of his junior year with no parents, no phone, and only the clothes on his back.With nowhere to call home, Bryce crashes at his grandparents’ house on Wolf Creek reservation. Wolf Creek is full of memories and old friends—including Robbie and Mikayla, who hang out at the local skate park.Skateboarding reminds Bryce of his late dad: carefree, riding like he could fly. If Bryce could learn to ride like that, he’d take his crew to the top of the skateboarding championship at the end of the summer, and finally prove he’s not a loser, especially to the online-famous, captivating Mikayla. Summer is looking up, even as he’s falling on his face.But when a fresh loss takes Bryce down, he’ll need to learn to lean on his Ojibwe community to get back on the board. Only then can he discover his father’s real legacy—and the true meaning of unconditional love.

I Got Laid Off, Now What?

A bold retelling of the story of capitalism that treats the core concepts of economics as living, breathing beings, blending fiction and fact to upend 250 years of economic orthodoxy. For a quarter of a millennium, Adam Smith’s invisible hand, ghostly and bloodied, has written the script of our lives. Everyman makes the ethereal ink in which it is etched legible by embodying the solitary, self-interested homo economicus—or “rational actor”—as Neo. Told as an imaginative novel, Everyman traces global capitalism’s arc from boom to bust through Neo and his reckless apostles: Finn, the archetypal finance bro; Davos, the ambassador of globalization; Wash, the envoy to distant lands; and Tek, the quintessence of the tech industry. In a dazzling saga spanning generations and continents, Neo’s epic journey takes us from Chicago to New York to London, from Wall Street to Burning Man, from the factories of the Rust Belt to the farmlands of India, introducing us to the economic minds and political figures who have shaped our world, everyday people, and even runaway monsters. An entertaining magical realist romp, Everyman touches on the most significant economic events in global history, from the Great Depression to the 2008 Financial Crisis, Britain’s Brexit vote to the inexorable rise of populism globally. Drawing on moral psychology, philosophy, evolutionary biology, and beyond, it animates the possibilities for how we might build on our capacity for cooperation to reinvent our broken institutions—and ourselves. By breaking form to ignite our moral imaginations, it presents a vision for rewriting our modern-day mythology, our economic theory. Everyman asks: by recasting economics’ strawman protagonist as a flesh-and-blood character, can we turn the plot of our lives from an inevitable tragedy to a redemption story and alter the destiny of our civilization?

The Untold Story of Economics

Everyman

Classroom Companion: Economics

This book offers a comprehensive introduction to modern macroeconomic theory, bridging foundational concepts with contemporary applications. It begins by exploring the core macroeconomic model featuring rational agents and competitive markets-the cornerstone for analyzing business cycles, economic growth, and asset pricing. From there, it transitions to more complex frameworks, including models that incorporate market imperfections and strategic interactions, crucial for understanding liquidity challenges and financial crises. Designed as a primer, this text explains the theoretical foundations of modern macroeconomics in an accessible way, without relying on advanced recursive techniques.

A Primer

Macroeconomic Theory

A unified framework for understanding monetary policy, including recent unprecedented interventions by central banks Over the past two decades, monetary policy has been deployed in unprecedented ways, as central banks attempted to mitigate the adverse consequences of the 2007-2008 financial crisis, the COVID-19 global lockdown, and recent inflationary surges. In Monetary Economics and Policy, Pierpaolo Benigno offers a new way to understand the potency and effectiveness of monetary policy, presenting a unified modeling framework to analyze policy challenges posed by both paper and digital currency systems. He investigates current theoretical and policy controversies, drawing connections with historical themes in monetary economics. Benigno examines how central banks control the value of their currency amid competition from cryptocurrencies and private money-like securities; discusses the desirability of inflation targeting for macroeconomic stabilization; and explores theoretical grounds for the unconventional monetary policies seen in the recent period of zero nominal interest rates, including forward guidance, quantitative and credit easing, and helicopter money. He accompanies his analysis with an innovative visual representation of the New Keynesian model and inflation-targeting policies. Benigno's novel framework also allows the study of monetary policy normalization through quantitative tightening toward what has become the "new normal." He discusses the optimal provision of liquidity and the different roles of the government and financial intermediaries. Finally, he recounts historical controversies regarding the inflation-unemployment trade-off to understand the 2020s inflationary surge and delves into the causes and dynamics of hyperinflations, tracing them to the subtle, ambiguous linkages between monetary and fiscal policy and weak balance-sheet conditions for the central bank.

Monetary Economics and Policy

In her long-awaited new memoir, the author of the New York Times bestseller and James Beard Award winner Blood, Bones &amp; Butter tells the “raw and darkly humorous” (People) story of her family's unexpected dissolution. “Hamilton’s voice is as singular and rollicking as ever in Next of Kin, but it feels rare and special to have it applied to the kind of complicated family history that so many of us only come to confront in adulthood (if at all).”—Vogue “We were a family veined through with certain brutalities, rifts, and unresolved conflicts, as well as some remarkable violences and some decades-long silences. But together we had rituals, systems, congruent cohering events that made us who we were as one. I thought of the black and blue marks as if they were the desirable spores of mold found in noble cheeses.” The youngest of five children, Gabrielle Hamilton took pride in her unsentimental, idiosyncratic family. She idolized her parents’ charisma and non-conformity. She worshipped her siblings’ mischievousness and flair. Hers was a family with no fondness for the humdrum. Hamilton grew up to find enormous success, first as a chef and then as the author of award-winning, bestselling books. But her family ties frayed in ways both seismic and mundane until eventually she was estranged from them all. In the wake of one brother’s sudden death and another’s suicide, while raising young children of her own, Hamilton was compelled to examine the sprawling, complicated root system underlying her losses. She began investigating her family’s devout independence and individualism with a nearly forensic rigor, soon discovering a sobering warning in their long-held self-satisfaction. By the time she was called to care for her declining mother—the mother she’d seen only twice in thirty years—Hamilton had realized a certain freedom, one made possible only through a careful psychological autopsy of her family. Hamilton’s gift for pungent dialogue, propulsive storytelling, intense honesty, and raucous humor made her first book a classic of modern memoir. In Next of Kin, she offers a keen and compassionate portrait of the people she grew up with and the prevailing but soon-to-falter ethos of the era that produced them. A personal account of one family’s disintegration, Next of Kin is also a universal story of the emotional clarity that comes from scrutinizing our family mythologies and seeing through to the other side.

Divorcing Your Résumé

This book explores the economic impact of crime in Latin America and the Caribbean, its economic drivers, and what economic policy can do to combat it. The underlying causes of crime are examined to understand the unique economic contexts that contribute to high rates of crime and violence. By exploring the direct and indirect economic consequences of crime on businesses, communities, and gender dynamics, the volume shows how insecurity hampers development. It presents a tailored approach to policy that begins with the right diagnosis, takes local contexts into account, and draws on international evidence to help policymakers combat crime and foster economic development.This book sets out a framework to transform cycles of violence and unrealized economic potential into virtuous cycles of growth and security. It will be relevant to students, researchers, and policymakers interested in the economics of crime and in the development trajectory of Latin America and the Caribbean.Luis Cubeddu

'Well researched and disturbingly persuasive.'&nbsp;Financial Times

AI is well on its way to making white collar jobs obsolete. Data-analysts, paralegals, writers and, most ironically, computer programmers are all on the chopping block. Without a radical reassessment of our economic and political structures, we stand at the precipice of mass unemployment and the implosion of the capitalist economy as we know it.

In The Rise of the Robots, Martin Ford systematically outlines the impact of AI and robotics, drawing on a wealth of economic data to illustrate the terrifying societal implications. From health and education to finance and technology, his warning is stark - all jobs, from doctors to electricians, are at risk of automation. The robots are at the gate and we must decide whether the future brings prosperity or catastrophe.

Rise of the Robots

The everyday realities of financial and work insecurity that drive right- and left-wing populism

In Insecurity Politics, Lorenza Antonucci examines the lived, everyday experiences that underpin political disaffection. Countering the reductive portrayals of populist voters as left-behind outsiders, Antonucci focuses on the ordinary, yet increasingly precarious, realities of work and financial instability as key to understanding the surge in populist support in both right- and left-wing politics. Drawing on robust comparative quantitative and qualitative analyses across nine European countries, Insecurity Politics describes the microlevel material and cultural dynamics that drive anti-establishment politics. It finds that dissatisfaction with work and a growing sense of financial insecurity fuel populist sentiments.

Antonucci maps the evolving landscape of insecurity in contemporary Europe, tracing its roots to structural transformations of welfare states and deep-seated cultural shifts. Proposing an original framework that combines cultural and economic explanations, the book shows how economic, social, and political factors shape receptivity to anti-establishment politics. Moving beyond conventional wisdom that attributes today’s populism to cultural backlash or globalization, Antonucci addresses a critical blind spot in current research. But Insecurity Politics offers more than a mere diagnosis; it also argues that a nuanced understanding of populist attitudes could inform a renewed political agenda—one more attuned to the complex realities of people's lives.
