THE VESTED INTERESTS & THE NATURE OF PEACE

Enriched edition.

Economics and Finance (R0)

&lt;p&gt;This book provides a fully revised and up-to-date analysis of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). With four entirely new chapters on responses to the financial crisis and the debate on reform options, Tomann assesses the EMU in comparison with other currency regimes through the adoption of a historical analysis. The book discusses in detail basic issues with currency and comprehensively analyzes monetary policy, highlighting problems of policy coordination. Tomann explores new monetary institutions that have been established in response to the financial crisis, before addressing long-term issues and reviewing reform proposals. By focusing on monetary issues the book offers a better understanding of macroeconomic policies and international policy cooperation, and, by extension, provides a thorough economic assessment of the EMU as an institution as it stands today.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This tenth part of Robert Leeson's collaborative biography of Friedrich August von Hayek explores Hayek’s thought on the free market and democracy. Using an unparalleled array of archival materials, Leeson reconstructs Hayek’s thinking as the notorious economist and his acolytes set about reshaping the post-war economic order. Darker areas of Hayek’s thought are also explored, including the influence of eugenics on his thought and his support for radical right-wing dictatorships in South America.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; Leeson concludes this volume with a collection of chapters written by eminent scholars of Hayek. These chapters cover subjects as diverse as Hayek’s influence on scholars of Darwinian evolution, his views on psychology, and cultural evolution. &lt;/p&gt;

Hayek: A Collaborative Biography

This eBook edition of "The Theory of Business Enterprise" has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices.The Theory of Business Enterprise is a political economy book that looks at the growing corporate domination of culture and the economy. At its heart The Theory of Business Enterprise is an analysis of two intertwined but clashing motivations; that of business and that of industry. Business is the making of profits. Industry is the making of goods. "The captains of industry" curtailed production in order to keep prices and profits high. The worst fears of businessmen was a "free run of production" which would essentially collapse all profits. In this book, which was published in 1904 during the height of American concern with the growth of business combinations and trusts, Veblen employed his evolutionary analysis to explain these new forms. He saw them as a consequence of the growth of industrial processes in a context of small business firms that had evolved earlier to organize craft production.Thorstein Veblen (1857-1929) was an American economist and sociologist. He is well known as a witty critic of capitalism. Veblen is famous for the idea of "conspicuous consumption." Conspicuous consumption, along with "conspicuous leisure," is performed to demonstrate wealth or mark social status. Veblen explains the concept in his best-known book, The Theory of the Leisure Class. Within the history of economic thought, Veblen is considered the leader of the institutional economics movement. Veblen's distinction between "institutions" and "technology" is still called the Veblenian dichotomy by contemporary economists.

In 2020 Noam Chomsky asserted that the time to panic about the existential threats posed by nuclear war, global warming, and the stifling of informed debate in supposedly open and democratic societies was upon us, and that it was the duty of concerned citizens to act accordingly. Hastened by the lingering aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic, the proxy war in Ukraine, the decline of US economic hegemony, and increasing hostility between the US and China, he concluded in early 2023 that unless the US could be persuaded to cooperate with its declared adversaries and capitalism could be overthrown or 'defanged', there was little hope for survival. The authors of this book argue that achieving these ends will depend greatly on effective individual and collective worldwide dissent.The book analyses and exemplifies dissent in the main domains of institutionalised capitalist control and the manufacture of uninformed consent, namely: political economy; education; the media and IT; work and trade unions; the commons and communities; and culture. And thereby gives voice and hope to the downtrodden and marginalised, including indigenous peoples and those of the global south. It provides an uplifting counter to the otherwise seemingly overwhelming expression of uninformed consent, one that will inspire by example and be an antidote to the fear and defeatism instilled by capitalist intransigence, indoctrination, and control.The book is addressed to students, scholars and researchers primarily, but its breadth of coverage, authenticity and plain writing style will appeal to activists, community organisers, and concerned citizens, both in industrialised countries and the global south.

The Political Economy of Dissent

This book examines the economic, social and political thought of two highly influential cross-disciplinary contributors to the debate in the United Kingdom about welfare economics, social welfare, nationalisation and public policy. Active between the 1880s and the 1930s, their many books, papers, lectures and speeches shaped the discourse on heterodox economics, social democracy and the managed economy. The Webbs sat on Royal Commissions, permeated local and central government, and were instrumental in the creation of the London School of Economics.&amp;nbsp;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This book discusses and assesses their contribution to the broad topics of inequality, poverty, unemployment, freedom, capitalism, socialism, constitutional reform, social evolution and the historical school. Issues such as these remain at the forefront of contemporary discussions not just in Britain but throughout the world.&lt;/div&gt;

An Academic Biography

Sidney and Beatrice Webb

Thorstein Veblen's 'The Higher Learning in America' is a critical examination of the state of higher education in the United States at the turn of the 20th century. Veblen scrutinizes the prevailing practices of universities, highlighting the commercialization of education and the influence of capitalism on academia. Written in a straightforward and incisive style, Veblen's work is a mix of sociological critique and economic analysis, shedding light on the inner workings of educational institutions. The book serves as an important commentary on the role of education in shaping society and the impact of economic forces on intellectual pursuits. Veblen's observations remain relevant today, making 'The Higher Learning in America' a timeless piece of scholarship. Veblen, a renowned economist and social critic, was known for his groundbreaking work on the theory of the leisure class and conspicuous consumption. His sharp insights and unflinching critique of societal norms set him apart as a pioneering thinker of his time. Veblen's background in economics and sociology likely influenced his perspective on the intersection of education and capitalism, leading to the writing of this seminal work. For readers interested in the history of higher education, the influence of capitalism on academia, and the societal implications of educational systems, 'The Higher Learning in America' is a must-read. Veblen's keen observations and analytical prowess make this book a valuable resource for understanding the complex dynamics at play in the world of higher learning.

The Higher Learning in America

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This book examines the development of the Spanish patent system in the years 1826 to 1902, providing a fundamental reassessment of its evolution in an international context. The Spanish case is particularly interesting because of this country’s location on the so-called European periphery and also because of the centrality of its colonial dimension. Pretel gauges the political regulation and organisation of the system, showing how it was established and how it evolved following international patterns of technological globalisation and the emergence of the ‘international patent system’ during the late nineteenth century.&lt;/p&gt;Crucially, he highlights the construction and evolution of the patent system in response to the needs of Spain's technologically dependent economy.&amp;nbsp;The degree of industrial backwardness in mid-nineteenth-century Spain set the stage for the institutionalisation of its modern patent system. This institutionalisation process also entailed the introduction of a new technological culture, social infrastructure and narrative that supported intellectual property rights. This book is important reading to all those interested in the history of patents and their role in globalisation.&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
