Why unfettered free-market capitalism endangers democracy—and what to do about it. In Private Power and Democracy’s Decline, Mordecai Kurz explores the relationship between free-market capitalism and democracy. He shows that technology has made capitalism different from what was envisioned in the Age of Enlightenment. Technology creates centers of market power and monopoly concentration that result in a society in which some people are enriched immensely while many workers’ livelihoods are often destroyed. Contrary to conventional thinking, technological competition does not remove market power, which becomes a permanent fixture of free-market capitalism. Such private power creates political inequality and generates forces that cause democracy’s decline and possible destruction. Applying these ideas to the US, Kurz shows that today’s problems begin in the 1980s with the policy of unregulated free-market capitalism. Coupled with the information technology revolution, this created a techno-winner-takes-all economy—leading to a second Gilded Age of unsustainable inequality and extreme political polarization. In the last 50 years, the economy “boomed” for some while leaving the majority of America’s workers behind. Kurz concludes that only regulated capitalism can support democracy so that the benefits of technology are more equally shared and no person’s livelihood is destroyed to enable others to be enriched. To save democracy, he proposes a “restoration-of-livelihood” policy, offering firms managerial flexibility to maintain rising productivity while ensuring that technology does not destroy the livelihood of others.

Private Power and Democracy's Decline

This book charts the history of youth justice in England and Wales, from its early distinction from adult justice in the early nineteenth century to the present day, and considers lessons from the past that may be useful for future policy.

A History of Youth Justice

In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.After a childhood in tumultuous west and north Africa, Thiam broke barriers in the elitist world of French higher education, becoming one of the first black consultants at McKinsey and Company before entering the Ivorian government. After a coup forced him into exile, he joined the world of finance, where his rise saw him named as CEO of Prudential in London and Credit Suisse in Zurich. Along the way, he was trained and supported by many both in the public and private sector who made his many achievements as a leader possible. However, his rise to prominence as the only African, black and Muslim boss of large Western corporations was also accompanied with disproportionate public and media scrutiny, as well as racism and xenophobia.A blend of autobiography, business, politics, and personal philosophy, his book offers a unique vantage point on corporate and political life in Africa, Europe, the United States and Asia. In a story that spans from his father's politically motivated imprisonment to the business principles that took Thiam to the top of global finance, he shares a personal and professional story that is equal parts inspirational and aspirational.

A Memoir

Without Prejudice

Sustainable business is no longer optional--it's the strategy that will determine who leads and who gets left behind.Climate change is not just a future threat--it's a current reality, reshaping markets, supply chains, and entire industries. Rising temperatures, resource scarcity, and mounting waste are driving regulatory pressure, investor scrutiny, and consumer demand for sustainable practices. For business leaders, this isn't just an operational challenge--it's a strategic disruption. Companies that fail to adapt risk being swept aside by forces they can no longer ignore.In The Ultimate Disruption: Rethinking Business in a World Transformed by Climate Change, INSEAD professors Atalay Atasu and Luk Van Wassenhove provide an essential road map for thriving in this new era. Drawing on decades of research and real-world case studies, they show why sustainability must be treated as a core business imperative, not a compliance exercise or marketing slogan. The authors introduce a framework for rethinking strategy, redefining value propositions, and reinventing business models to integrate environmental value alongside customer utility and profit.Through compelling examples--from Polygreen's zero-waste transformation on a Greek island to Schneider Electric's global decarbonization initiatives--the book illustrates how companies are turning environmental constraints into opportunities for innovation and growth. Each chapter tackles critical steps: building the business case for sustainability; revisiting value potential; overcoming operational and scaling challenges; and leveraging partnerships, tech, and new business models to deliver shared value and profitability.Sustainability is no longer a cost--it's a competitive advantage. The Ultimate Disruption equips leaders with the strategies and tools to navigate the climate-driven transformation of business ecosystems and emerge stronger than ever.

Co-Creation beschreibt eine moderne Art des Zusammenarbeitens. Dabei ist Co-Creation mehr als die Einbeziehung von Kunden oder Stakeholdern, mehr als Kooperation und Kollaboration. Gleichzeitig ist Co-Creation kein Allheilmittel, das immer passt und für jegliche Teams und Produkte anwendbar ist. Wie lässt sich also Co-Creation bei der Durchführung von Projekten integrieren? Wen oder was braucht es dafür? Dieses Buch geht diesen Fragen nach und beleuchtet Rahmenbedingungen, Personen und Werkzeuge für eine wirkungsvolle Umsetzung von Co-Creation für Projekte. Damit beschreibt dieses Buch einen besonderen Aspekt im Spannungsfeld zwischen klassischen Handlungsweisen in Projekten und modernen Arbeitsweisen und gibt allen Beteiligten in Projekten, besonders Projektleitern oder Produktmanagern sowie auch Agilen Mastern oder Product Ownern Impulse für die Arbeit mit ihren Teams.

Dieses Lehrbuch bietet einen systematischen Überblick über das externe Rechnungswesen, welches die außerhalb eines Unternehmens stehenden Stakeholder über die wirtschaftliche Lage informiert. Dabei ist der Jahresabschluss (Bilanz, Gewinn- und Verlustrechnung sowie ggf. Anhang) die einzige gesetzlich vorgeschriebene und normierte Informationsquelle, die Aussagen zur wirtschaftlichen Situation eines Unternehmens liefern kann. Daher ist eine fundierte Analyse des Jahresabschlusses Voraussetzung, um zuverlässige Erkenntnisse hinsichtlich der Vermögens-, Finanz-und Ertragslage eines Unternehmens zu erhalten. Gleichzeitig ist es von entscheidender Bedeutung, die Auswirkungen unternehmerischen Handelns unter Berücksichtigung steuer- und bilanzpolitischer Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten und deren Auswirkungen auf das Bilanzbild einschätzen zu können. Für die 4. Auflage wurde das Werk vollständig überarbeitet und für eine optimale Prüfungsvorbereitung um weitere Übungsaufgaben mit Lösungen erweitert.

Psychology of Traffickers: Insights from Romanian Prisons offers a rare and methodologically rigorous examination of the moral and psychological worlds of individuals convicted of human trafficking. Based on in-depth qualitative interviews with twenty incarcerated traffickers in Romania, the book analyzes how exploitation is rationalized, normalized, and sustained over time within conditions of inequality, migration, and institutional constraint.Rather than portraying traffickers as aberrant or pathological, Dr. Bogdan situates their actions within everyday social and moral frameworks: intimate relationships, informal economies, gendered expectations, and bureaucratic systems that enable harm through routine practices and moral distancing. Through traffickers' own narratives, the book reveals how responsibility is displaced, coercion reframed, and exploitation rendered psychologically livable.Integrating offender accounts with criminological and forensic psychological theory, the book develops empirically grounded typologies of trafficking involvement and moral coping. In doing so, it challenges simplified victim-perpetrator binaries and advances a structural, narrative-based understanding of trafficking as a social process rather than an exceptional crime.Designed for forensic psychologists, criminologists, and scholars of violence and inequality, Psychology of Traffickers provides a critical framework for analyzing accountability, risk, and intervention by foregrounding the moral reasoning through which exploitation persists.
