Money

Eine Geschichte der Menschheit aus Perspektive des Geldes

From John Maynard Keynes’s foremost biographer, an illuminating look at how the economist’s ethical approach can be used to address today’s pressing problems &nbsp; John Maynard Keynes (1883–1946) was arguably the most important economist of the twentieth century; his ideas have fundamentally altered the way governments approach economic policy. Exploring the enduring relevance of his ideas, Robert Skidelsky emphasizes Keynes’s conception of economics as a moral science. Keynes was deeply invested in the broader societal implications of economic policies, and this book highlights his belief in economics as a tool for achieving the good life. &nbsp; Skidelsky sheds new light on Keynes’s views on capitalism, discusses his advocacy of low interest rates, and delves into his thoughts on economic instability. He also offers fresh insight into Keynes’s ideas about money, his philosophical foundations, and his unique approach to uncertainty and probability. Ultimately, Skidelsky shows how Keynes’s vision of an economic policy that prioritizes the common good can be adapted to help solve our current economic and political challenges.

Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR)

Wie lässt sich Kryptoökonomie als interdisziplinäres Paradigma strategischer Souveränität im 21. Jahrhundert konzeptualisieren?

Diese Monografie untersucht die&nbsp;Kryptoökonomie&nbsp;als interdisziplinäres Feld, das Prinzipien der&nbsp;Spieltheorie,&nbsp;Informatik&nbsp;und&nbsp;Thermodynamik&nbsp;miteinander verknüpft. Dabei werden Parallelen zwischen den emergenten Mustern biologischer Selbstorganisation und der technischen Resilienz genehmigungsfreier Netzwerke gezogen. Der Wert des Konsenses ergibt sich aus der Bindung gemeinschaftlich bereitgestellter Ressourcen.
Kryptoökonomie wird hier als wissenschaftliche Disziplin begriffen, die menschliches Verhalten innerhalb dezentraler Systeme durch gezielte Anreizstrukturen steuert und dabei auf zentrale institutionelle Instanzen verzichtet. Darauf aufbauend werden Smart Contracts, DeFi, Tokenisierung, Skalierungslösungen und dezentrale autonome Organisationen als Bausteine neuer Koordinationsformen diskutiert.
Doch dieses Buch beleuchtet nicht nur technische Details, sondern zeigt, warum genehmigungsfreie Konsensprotokolle ein neues Organisationsprinzip sozialer Kooperation darstellen. Ähnlich wie der Buchdruck, der ab dem 16. Jahrhundert die Demokratisierung von Wissen förderte, ebnen genehmigungsfreie Blockchain-Protokolle wie Bitcoin oder Ethereum den Weg zu einer dezentralen Gesellschaftsform, in der Offenheit, Neutralität und Zensurresistenz dominieren, um postdemokratische Strukturen zu transformieren. Eine besondere Rolle spielt die Energiekopplung des Bitcoin-Netzwerks, da diese zu einer Senkung der Zeitpräferenz führt und somit zu einem nachhaltigen Wirtschaftsmodell beiträgt.
Darüber hinaus wird die Blockchain-Technologie als Instrument zur Verwaltung künstlicher Intelligenz sowie im Rahmen geopolitischer Sicherheitsstrategien erörtert, insbesondere im Spannungsfeld zwischen digitaler Souveränität und digitalem Zentralbankgeld (CBDC).

Ein Nachschlagewerk mit den wichtigsten Referenzen aus Wissenschaft und Industrie.

Von Patronatserklärungen bis Kryptowerten: Aktuelle Entwicklungen im Bank- und Versicherungsrecht
 

 
 Das Innsbrucker Forum für Bank- und Versicherungsrecht hat sich auch im Jahr 2026 wieder mit aktuellen Fragestellungen beschäftigt, die in der Bank- und Versicherungswirtschaft gerade intensiv diskutiert werden. In Band 4 der Innsbrucker Schriftenreihe zum Bank- und Versicherungsrecht befassen sich Alexander Schopper und Marina Farbmacher, Anne-Christin Mittwoch sowie Gabriel Kogler mit Patronatserklärungen, Nachhaltigkeit im Risikomanagement von Banken und Kryptowerten in Exekution und Insolvenz.
 

 Zwei Mitglieder des Obersten Gerichtshofes (OGH), Benjamin Dobler und Martin Weber, präsentieren in bewährter Form die praxisrelevantesten Entscheidungen im Bereich des Bank- und Versicherungsrechts aus dem Jahr 2025, etwa zu Kreditbearbeitungsgebühren oder zum Diskriminierungsverbot im Privatversicherungsrecht. Außerdem setzen sich Moritz Zoppel und Severin Glaser einerseits mit Informationsasymmetrien und der AGB-Inhaltskontrolle sowie andererseits mit den spezifischen Herausforderungen der "Russland-Sanktionen" für die Versicherungswirtschaft auseinander.

Die Mark Brandenburg

Geld ist mehr als nur ein Zahlungsmittel! Goldgulden und blechernes Notgeld, "Ewige Pfennige" und Banknoten, die das Papier nicht mehr wert sind - im Geld spiegeln sich politische, kulturelle und gesellschaftliche Verhältnisse, historische Ereignisse und Menschenschicksale. Die Regeln des Zahlungsverkehrs "prägen" sprichwörtlich viele Bereiche des Alltagslebens. Ob frühneuzeitliche Reichstaler, Noten der Deutschen Bundesbank oder DDR-Papiergeld - Geld ist stets auch die Projektionsfläche politischer Macht. Nicht zuletzt erzählt das Geld in seinen Formen von historischer Lebenswelt: An Münzen und Scheinen haften die Spuren jener, durch deren Hände sie gingen. Entdecken Sie gemeinsam mit unseren Autorinnen und Autoren die Geschichte des Geldes in Brandenburg. Monetäre Gewinne können wir Ihnen dabei nicht in Aussicht stellen - sehr wohl aber Spannendes und Wissenswertes: alte Münzschätze und Kipper und Wipper, numismatische Enthüllungen rund um die sagenhafte Slawenfürstin Petrissa und eine der größten Geldfälscheraktionen der Geschichte - und vieles mehr rund um das 'Geld in Brandenburg'.

Geld in Brandenburg

An acclaimed economist’s fully revised and expanded guide to how resilient thinking helps us thrive in a world filled with unknown risks &nbsp; Risks are ubiquitous in our world. In recent years, a changing global order, the war in Ukraine, food insecurity in emerging and developing economies, the COVID pandemic, and increasingly severe weather events have exposed our vulnerabilities and heightened our awareness that large, unexpected events can upend our lives at any moment. Describing how individuals, institutions, and nations can successfully navigate a dynamic, globalized economy filled with unknown risk, Markus K. Brunnermeier argues for adopting resilience as a central tenet of decision-making. Different from risk avoidance—which involves a cost-benefit analysis by weighing the outcome of various scenarios and choosing the less risky one—resilience focuses on the ability to bounce back from shocks and setbacks. &nbsp; Written for business leaders, economists, policymakers, and politically interested individuals, this wholly revised edition of the award-winning The Resilient Society applies macroeconomic insights to public health, innovation, public debt overhang, inflation, inequality, climate change, and other challenges to the global order. Brunnermeier shows how the concept of resilience can be a compass for developing a social contract that benefits us all.

The Resilient Society

Why do we use eighty-year-old metrics to understand today’s economy? The ways that statisticians and governments measure the economy were developed in the 1940s, when the urgent economic problems were entirely different from those of today. In The Measure of Progress, Diane Coyle argues that the framework underpinning today’s economic statistics is so outdated that it functions as a distorting lens, or even a set of blinkers. When policymakers rely on such an antiquated conceptual tool, how can they measure, understand, and respond with any precision to what is happening in today’s digital economy? Coyle makes the case for a new framework, one that takes into consideration current economic realities. Coyle explains why economic statistics matter. They are essential for guiding better economic policies; they involve questions of freedom, justice, life, and death. Governments use statistics that affect people’s lives in ways large and small. The metrics for economic growth were developed when a lack of physical rather than natural capital was the binding constraint on growth, intangible value was less important, and the pressing economic policy challenge was managing demand rather than supply. Today’s challenges are different. Growth in living standards in rich economies has slowed, despite remarkable innovation, particularly in digital technologies. As a result, politics is contentious and democracy strained. Coyle argues that to understand the current economy, we need different data collected in a different framework of categories and definitions, and she offers some suggestions about what this would entail. Only with a new approach to measurement will we be able to achieve the right kind of growth for the benefit of all.

Counting What Really Matters

The Measure of Progress

An empirical analysis and new theoretical framework for understanding economic expectations and decision-making in different historical settings. Expectations play a crucial role in shaping economic behavior. But how are expectations actually formed, and how has this changed over time? The financial crisis of 2007–08 cast doubt on traditional theories of expectation formation, particularly the rational expectations framework. In Contingent Expectations, Alexander Nützenadel and Jochen Streb examine the ways that past experiences influence the economic expectations and decision-making of households, investors, and policymakers through history, and offer an alternative perspective. Combining a comprehensive empirical analysis of expectation formation from the eighteenth century to the present day with an assessment of the relevant economic theory, Nützenadel and Streb present a new theoretical framework, contingent expectations, for understanding economic expectation. Nützenadel and Streb show how economic actors developed new forecasting methods in response to rising uncertainty brought on by the Industrial Revolution, the expansion of global trade, financial market integration, and environmental crises. Tracing the evolution of economic theories on expectations, they find that when growing market volatility made forecasting more complex, economic agents often adapted with remarkable flexibility to changing circumstances. Challenging prevailing concepts of expectations, including rational choice and adaptive expectations, Nützenadel and Streb emphasize the heterogeneity of economic agents’ cognitive practices—in particular, the need to consider variation in information costs and historical experience. Expectation formation, they argue, is contingent on each individual’s current decision-making situation. Their account of the history of economic expectations has significant implications for current debates in economics.

A history of the institutional reform of monetary policy in Latin America, with lessons for todayAfter years of macroeconomic instability, central bank independence (CBI) is playing a pivotal role in achieving low inflation worldwide. But in some nations-including Brazil, Colombia, Hungary, India, Mexico, Tüuuml;rkiye, and the United States-- central banks have been blamed for focusing only on fighting inflation at the expense of economic growth.Central Bank Independence and Inflation argues that countries must continue supporting the independence of central banks to keep inflation in check and hence promote long-run economic growth. Jáaacute;come analyzes the evolution of CBI in Latin America from its creation in the 1920s to the present day. He warns against requiring central banks to print money to finance fiscal deficits, because it hinders economic growth. He creates a database of central bank independence to track its evolution and provides empirical evidence of a negative correlation with inflation. Deeply grounded in history, Central Bank Independence and Inflation warns against the consequences of weakening this institutional arrangement. It is the first book to provide a historical account of Latin America's CBI and will be a valuable resource for those interested in monetary policy.

The Story of the Global Economy in One Ship

An award-winning economic journalist on why the US dollar is positioned to maintain global primacy—and what that means for America and the world &nbsp; “Magisterial.”—Edward Chancellor, Reuters &nbsp; Prophecies that the dollar will lose its status as the world’s dominant currency have echoed for decades—and are increasing in volume. Cryptocurrency enthusiasts claim that Bitcoin or other blockchain-based monetary units will replace the dollar. Foreign policy hawks warn that China’s renminbi poses a lethal threat to the greenback. And sound money zealots predict that mounting US debt and inflation will surely erode the dollar’s value to the point of irrelevancy. &nbsp; Contra the doomsayers, Paul Blustein shows that the dollar’s standing atop the world’s currency pyramid is impregnable, barring catastrophic policy missteps by the US government. Recounting how the United States has wielded the dollar to impose devastating sanctions against adversaries, Blustein explains that although targets such as Russia have found ways to limit the damage, Washington’s financial weaponry will retain potency long into the future. His message, however, is that America must not be complacent about the dollar; the great power that its supremacy confers comes with commensurate responsibility.
