Mismanaged Decline

What Politicians Won't Tell You About the Economy

'This, right now, with no excuses, no delays,&nbsp;no equivocation, no loop-holes, no moaning' - Danny Dorling

'A concise, sharp book that makes an incontrovertible case for a profound redistribution of wealth; and a rousing call to arms to take on the super-rich and build an economy that works for everyone' - Grace Blakeley

The story is all too familiar. The global economy generates immense fortunes for a super-rich elite. Yet at the same time pay stagnates for ordinary workers, food banks proliferate and public services collapse around us.

In Enough, Luke Hildyard argues that far from being the hard-working and productive entrepreneurs that they claim to be, the super-rich are an extractive, parasitic force sucking up a vastly disproportionate share of society's resources - making the rest of us all poorer as a result.&nbsp;

Politicians make absurd promises about economic growth while ignoring the solution that's staring them in the face. Enough shows that a major programme of taxes on the rich and economic reform could be used to get the wealth of the one per cent flowing instead to the workers who actually create it.

Why It's Time to Abolish the Super-Rich

Enough

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2017 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, grade: Distinction, , language: English, abstract: Considered one of the deciding factors for Brexit, the subject of immigration has been in vogue in mainstream politics. Many claims regarding how immigrants are negative for the British economy are brought by politicians and the public alike. But are such ideas true? Additionally, how will Brexit affect the economic significance of immigrant workers after changes in legislation?

Through an assessment of the current data available on the economic meaning of immigrants to the UK¿s economy, and of the territory¿s historical relations with immigration law and groups like the European Union (EU), alongside the consideration of the purposes of Brexit regarding migration policies, this study came to relevant conclusions. The overall beneficial consequence of the current level of immigrant workers was found to be adamant, reflecting the resolutions drawn by previous studies and reports ¿ although, interestingly, not by so many political speeches and manifestos. Consequently, the prospects of the expected impact of Brexit on immigration ¿ that is, lowering the yearly inflow of migrants ¿ are negative, and could possibly damage various industry sectors and areas of the economy.

Brexit Without Borders. How will Brexit's impact on immigration affect the economy?

This book presents a comprehensive picture of eighteenth-century British authors’ engagement with a society increasingly driven by commercial interests. The books and pamphlets constituting the “discourses” on economic topics overstep the boundaries separating the domains of economics, religion (William Warburton, John Wesley), law (William Blackstone, Lord Mansfield), history (William Robertson, Edward Gibbon), physiology (Richard Morton, Goerge Cheyne) and politics (Edmund Burke, the Abolitionists). An impartial and inclusive history of the “discourses” is what the book purports to construct. The luminaries of the British (and Scottish) Enlightenment (Adam Smith, David Hume), are given due respects, but a great number of less well-known and even anonymous authors also feature in the book. Giving as much scope as possible to the sources themselves, the book pays attention to both the rhetorical and the thematic layers of the quotations, while keeping generalization and theorizations to the minimum. The “eighteenth-century” in the title begins in the 1680s, when some of the important authors such as Nicholas Barbon published their thoughts, and ends in the 1790s, with the contrastive pair of Edmund Burke and Jeremy Bentham.Hye-Joon Yoon

Moral Discourses of the Economy in Eighteenth-Century Britain

‘A stunning and devastating indictment&nbsp;of a society&nbsp;scarred and defined by inequality, by one of the most charismatic and compelling&nbsp;voices in politics today’ Owen Jones ‘Faiza’s work is living proof that you don’t have to choose between focusing on class and battling racism, or to triangulate on hate in order to advance a political cause. She’s a testament to the power of rising with your community, and not out of it’ Ash Sarkar 'Shaheen overcame a plethora of barriers to get to Oxford and become a leading statistician. In this thought-provoking read, she uses her own unlikely story to probe how society defines your chances in life – and what we can do about it'&nbsp;i At four years old, Dr Faiza Shaheen was told by her mum that one day she would study at the University of Oxford. As the daughter of a car mechanic attending state schools, the odds were low, but she worked hard and succeeded. Today, she’s a leading statistician and standing for election as a Member of Parliament. &nbsp; Why do we glorify success as personal triumph like this? These narratives purposely erase the role of public services, where you are born, and luck – and they tell us that anyone can follow the same path. &nbsp; Rather than making working-class mobility the norm, what Faiza accomplished makes her an exception, and it’s statistically impossible for everyone to be the exception. The inconvenient truth, as this book proves, is that social mobility is a fairy tale. Society today will not give most of us the chance of a secure and fulfilling life. That is unacceptable. &nbsp; Part memoir, part polemic, Know Your Place is a personal and statistical look at how society and the economy are structured, what really defines your life chances and how our current system keeps us locked into an ugly hierarchy. But more than that, it’s a powerful call for collective fighting to reinvent things as we want them to be; it’s about breaking out, finding hope and not staying in your place. We can change things, and this is how.

Part memoir, part polemic, Know Your Place&nbsp;is a personal and statistical look at how society is built, the people it leaves behind, and how we can change things for the better.
