Eine Geschichte der Menschheit aus Perspektive des Geldes

Swindlers, Visionaries and the Crash That Built a Global City

The Great Bombay Bubble

This book examines why the liberal international order, once seemingly unassailable, now confronts existential questions in the twenty-first century's opening decades. It shows how the rise of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), BRICS, and Bitcoin-the '3 Bs'- has signalled a fundamental shift in global power dynamics and governance frameworks. It analyzes how these three externalities challenge core assumptions about international cooperation, economic governance, and hegemonic leadership. They also posit alternative visions: infrastructure-led connectivity, multipolar economic alliances, and decentralized financial systems that bypass traditional Western institutions. Moving beyond nostalgia or triumphalism, it explores what frameworks might emerge as the world transitions from unipolarity-and whether liberal internationalism can adapt, reform, or must yield to fundamentally different organizing principles for global order.The volume will be of great interest to researchers and students of politics and international relations, development studies and international organizations. Accessible and comprehensive, it will also be of interest to general readers.

Forschungsreihe PHW

Seit Jahrhunderten verlassen wir uns auf staatliche Währungen, deren Stabilität von Notenbanken, Gesetzen und Institutionen getragen wird. Mit dem Aufstieg von Bitcoin tritt diesem etablierten Modell ein grundlegend anderes gegenüber: ein dezentrales System, das sein Vertrauen nicht aus Institutionen, sondern aus Technologie und mathematischer Sicherheit ableitet. Doch lässt sich technisches Vertrauen tatsächlich in gesellschaftliches übersetzen?Diese Studie untersucht, wie Vertrauen in Geldsysteme entsteht, sich wandelt und begründet wird. Sie stellt das institutionelle Vertrauen in den Schweizer Franken dem technologischen Vertrauen in Bitcoin gegenüber und kombiniert theoretische Grundlagen mit empirischen Daten aus leitfadengestützten Interviews. Befragt wurden zwei Gruppen: Experten aus Wirtschaft, Finanzwesen und Kryptobranche sowie Mitglieder der Schweizer Bevölkerung. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage, wie sich beide Vertrauensformen unterscheiden, voneinander abgrenzen lassen und welche Rolle institutionelle Absicherung, Technologie und Eigenverantwortung dabei spielen. Eine differenzierte Analyse an der Schnittstelle von Soziologie, Ökonomie und Technologie – für alle, die verstehen wollen, worauf unser Vertrauen in Geld wirklich beruht.

Institutionelles und technologisches Vertrauen in Geldsystemen

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER'A masterpiece' Rory Sutherland, author of AlchemyWhat if everything you've been told about money is wrong?Here, a leading investor reveals what the wealthiest people know about money - but most of us don't. From why cutting down your spending will never make you rich, to why buying your own home might not be such a good idea after all, Rob Dix cuts through the bullshit to identify an alternative path to lasting wealth.__'A brilliant read that is equally engaging, informative and accessible. This book will make you revisit, reconsider and maybe even refresh your thinking on some of the things you always thought you knew about money and investing.' Jack Meaning, co-author of Can't We Just Print More Money?'A lively take on modern money management from a gifted storyteller, filled with intriguing financial predictions.' Claer Barrett, author of What They Don't Teach You About Money

And the Truth About Finding Financial Freedom

Seven Myths About Money

Most of us think about money every day. But how many of us know how it actually works?Every morning, someone unassumingly types numbers into a spreadsheet, hits enter and creates millions of pounds. Somewhere deep underground, a machine most of us will never see props up the entire British economy. And hidden in a vault nearby are individual banknotes worth £100 million each. These are just some of the surprising truths about how money works.The Bank of England know more about the money system than most - after all, it is their job to keep it running smoothly. Now, for the first time, two of its economists take you deep into their vaults to tell you the inside story of money.They explain how ordinary banks are able to create money from scratch, and what stops that descending into chaos. They explore what causes inflation and why one country tried to solve rising prices by asking its citizens to cut all banknotes in half. They uncover how a baby hippo briefly became a global currency, and what that says about the future of money. And they reveal what goes on inside the Bank of England during a banking crisis, and why it means your money is safer now than ever before.Along the way, they explore how money is changing today - and what new technologies like crypto mean for its future. The result is a lively and surprising guide to how money is supposed to work, what happens when it doesn't, and where it might be going next.

The Surprising Truth About How Money Works

Money: The Inside Story

Why the consequences of a prolonged period of weaker economic growth will be more profound than anyone dares to predictIn the heady progress of the post-war era, our lifestyles changed, our political systems adapted, and rapid economic growth became the model of every developed economy. But this prevailing consensus is falling apart around us. Growth is now, at best, no more than anaemic. Policymakers dream about an AI revolution and tweak their fiscal rules to accommodate a newly-austere economic reality but, all the while, government debt soars, financial markets become increasingly jittery, and voters lose trust in their politicians.Celebrated economist Stephen D. King asks how our politics will adapt to such persistently low growth. While leaders make fiscal promises based on a future that is unlikely to materialise, nationalism thrives, battlelines are drawn between perceived winners and losers, and the rules-based international order crumbles. The absence of growth triggers invidious political wrangling over tax, welfare, defence and infrastructure, intensifies competition for resources, and leads to social instability.King shows how our new world is governed by them-and-us divisions over limited economic spoils. This is the political economy of plunder.&nbsp;

 Doch der Erfolg ruft neidische Tech-Milliardäre und altbekannte Knacker auf den Plan ...

The Future of Global Governance?

Digital Currencies and Blockchain Technology in International Politics

Economics is vital, but its labyrinth of equations can make it feel disconnected from the real world. Enter a powerful tool: the metaphor.From longtime economics journalist Peter Coy comes an approachable and fun guide to the metaphors that unlock its power. With nearly 500 alphabetized entries, complemented by playful illustrations, Economics Without Numbers demystifies concepts, exploring their origins, the truths they express, and where they fall short. The result is a delightful and original primer on economic ideas and history that's perfect for students and anyone who wants to understand what makes the world go 'round.Coy has spent decades collecting these vivid metaphors. From "trickle-down economics" (the idea that making the rich richer will help the poor) to "inductivist turkey" (a parable about the perils of assuming that a trend will persist without knowing its cause), Coy brings economics to life.
