This book addresses the various challenges that arose during the two periods of Indonesian President Jokowi's administration. These included the global economic crisis, increasingly complex geopolitical dynamics, such as competition between major powers, the Covid-19 pandemic and its ramifications for Indonesia, as well as issues of border disputes, human trafficking, and the situation in Palestine. Addressing these challenges necessitates a forward-thinking Indonesian foreign policy strategy. As the 2024 General Election has taken place and President Jokowi's term came to an end, this book presents a timely and comprehensive discussion on Indonesian foreign policy and diplomacy and its associated challenges—those of the past, and those now facing the current administration. Relevant to Indonesian and international political scientists and social scientists, this interdisciplinary book—which includes perspectives from both scholars and practitioners—confronts Jokowi's policies relating to the economy, territorial, migration, religion, and all aspects of Indonesian society, in the context of the former government.

Joko Widodo's Foreign Policy and Diplomatic Legacy

This book presents an innovative economic theory that successfully integrates the "effective market" and the "capable government" into a unified model. Moving beyond the traditional view of market versus state, it demonstrates how these forces can work together organically, drawing key insights from China's economic development story. The work constructs a comprehensive rational synthesis model, assigning balanced weight to both market mechanisms and government action. It establishes corresponding macroeconomic goals and policy frameworks. Building on this foundation, the book offers a unified analysis of economic growth theory and identifies the optimal balance point between government intervention and market freedom. Ultimately, this groundbreaking contribution, rooted in China's successful practice, offers a vital new perspective for understanding modern economies. It positions China's economic model and theory for greater global influence, contributing fresh pathways for development within today's rapidly changing world and the pursuit of a shared future for mankind.

Theoretical Perspectives

The Innovation of Economic Theory in China

The twelve papers collected in this volume of Research in Political Economy mark a new phase in the study of capitalism, centred on the reproduction of total social capital. They address the widely felt need to reconnect political economy with real-world phenomena, including financial crises, long-term stagnation, poverty, inequality, and economic injustice.
Seeking to renew pluralist dialogue among all currents critical of the dominant neoclassical paradigm-particularly those aiming to move beyond the equilibrium framework that permeates it-the volume offers important new insights into Marx's value theory. These constitute a significant addition to both the existing body of Marx studies and to a broader understanding of capitalist reproduction, accumulation, and the sources of their recurrent failures.
This shared engagement rests on the recognition that the study of the circuit of capital can shed fresh light on the fundamental concepts of money, price, value, and credit, and on their role in explaining capitalism's 'laws of motion': accumulation, historical origins, and reproduction itself. The volume thus advances critical debates and paves the way for future research on the dynamics of capitalist reproduction.

Money, Value and Marx's Circuit of Capital

Understanding China

This book sorts out the causes, consequences and the evolution path of China's economic reform process from the historical dimension of China's economic policy changes, from which the long-standing contradictions and conflicts between the two different models can be seen throughout the process, i.e. the market economy and the state-dominated economy (e.g., Lenin's 'special state capitalism') as well as the potential risks that will be brought by the pause of market and law reform on China's economic and social development. The dispute on the paths exists and will continue, which builds the great complexity and arduousness since China's Reform and Opening-up. This book is written by Chinese economist Jinglian Wu, which helps readers to understand the history and logic behind China's reform and opening-up, as well as the challenges China is facing.

China’s Economic Reform Process

*Shortlisted for the Cundill History Prize* What would women do with their lives if they had more time? The riveting, untold story of a revolutionary campaign to change the way work is valued 'The women of the world are serving notice. We want wages for every dirty toilet, every indecent assault, every painful childbirth, every cup of coffee and every smile. And if we don't get what we want, we will simply refuse to work any longer!' Across the globe in the 1970s, a network of feminists distilled their struggles into a single demand: Wages for Housework! Today, it remains a provocative idea, and an unfulfilled promise. Here historian Emily Callaci tells the story of this campaign by exploring the lives and ideas of its key creators, tracing their wildly creative political vision over the past five decades: from the early 1970s, when Selma James, a working-class political organizer, and Mariarosa Dalla Costa, a scholar-activist, started laying the foundations of Wages for Housework in London and Italy; through philosopher Silvia Federici reframing the campaign in the context of New York City's fiscal crisis; to Wilmette Brown, lesbian poet and anti-war activist, and Margaret Prescod, community organizer, who brought the insights of Black feminism to the movement. Drawing on new archival research and extensive interviews, Callaci takes us deep inside the heart of the movement as it reached across Europe, America, Africa and the Caribbean. For these women, the wage was more than a demand for money: it was a starting point for remaking the world as we know it, imagining potential futures under capitalism - and beyond. Then as now, Wages for Housework poses profound questions. What would it be like to live in a society that prioritizes care rather than production? How would this change our relationship with the natural world? And what would women do with their lives if they had more time?

The Story of a Movement, an Idea, a Promise

Wages for Housework

The Anthropocene: Politik—Economics—Society—Science

The book provides an empirically rich analysis of Bangladesh’s economic transformation through globalization, with particular focus on the emergence of its globally competitive garment export industry. It emphasizes the crucial role of internal ideational factors within the state, arguing that policy learning—driven by key technocrats and political executives—was central to designing strategies that enabled industrialization and export-led growth.
Challenging conventional narratives that attribute policy reforms primarily to external pressures from international financial institutions, the book highlights how endogenous political agency and state-led planning facilitated the rise of the private sector. The garment sector, in particular, became a catalyst for socio-economic transformation, advancing women's economic participation, enhancing household incomes, and contributing significantly to GDP growth.
Drawing on a political economy approach and the framework of historical institutionalism, the book traces the evolution of policymaking across successive governments. It demonstrates how internal ideas, institutions, and strategic decisions—rather than external imposition—shaped the country’s development path.
This book will be of great interest to policymakers, economists, scholars of international political economy and development studies, policy and business schools, and those focused on the dynamics of export-led growth and industrial transformation in emerging economies.
• &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Explores the evolution of policy learning in Bangladesh through the concept of the policy committee—a unique contribution to governance studies in the Global South. • &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Analyzes technocratic ideas and political agency in facilitating garment exports and driving socio-economic transformation in a post-aid agrarian society. • &nbsp; &nbsp;Offers a nuanced account of political decision-making and state–society interactions in public policy formation.

Garments and Growth

The first of two volumes written “in and against development” tells the story of how of The Economics of Everything, or Economics Imperialism, became a dominant presence in development economics.
 

Today, economics imperialism sets the agenda in development studies, with the World Bank taking a leading, if contested, role. This volume examines how this happened, charting the evolution from the old or classic development economics through the new, newer and newest development economics. Drawing critically upon the Kuhnian notions of paradigm shifts, corresponding changes are contextualized materially, intellectually and policy-wise. Covering key issues such as famine, the developmental state, and trade and industrial policy, detailed attention is paid to the potential for alternatives for economics and economic policies.

Introduction to Quantitative Economics

Come and meet Shere Hite—the feminist hero whose notorious work revolutionized how we think about sex, marriage, and the female orgasm... Despite being one of the leading thinkers of the second wave feminist movement, today Shere Hite is little known, little written about, and, unsurprisingly, little read. Her groundbreaking book, The Hite Report, was the first feminist exploration of the link between sex and male power. It sold millions of copies when first published in 1976 and revolutionized the way people thought about marriage and the female orgasm. How, then, did it, and Hite, disappear from public consciousness?&nbsp; Using original research material and sharp cultural analysis, Rosa Campbell explores Hite’s complicated life and literary legacy. Campbell expands on Hite’s ideas about sex — namely, that sex is sexist — and tracks Hite through her fraught childhood, her struggles working in the porn industry, and her eventual cancellation by the far-right Evangelical movement. All the while, Campbell holds Hite and The Hite Report to account for their own failings and absence of intersectionality.&nbsp; In a post-Dobbs, post-MeToo world, this book’s examination of shifting ideological movements is essential to understanding both the current feminist movement, as well as how conservative, reactionary, counter-mobilization efforts can silence even the most successful of women. Contains 8 black and white vintage photos.

The Book That Taught the World to Orgasm and Then Disappeared

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment and control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.

How Economists Use Natural Experiments to Decipher Our World

Daughters, Diplomats, and Death

What goals are still feasible for the politics of emancipation on a ruined planet? This is where we are. Today's techno-oligarchs are not concerned with saving the planet; rather, they have accepted the end of progress and are focused on safeguarding their wealth in the face of an impending political and ecological collapse. Artificial intelligence and algorithms make decisions for us. Climate breakdown has long steamed past the wreckage of the Paris Agreement. Perhaps the accelerationists have the right idea. Accelerationism - which aims to resolve the current crisis through the intensification of technological development - is the only philosophy not clinging to the now-extinct idea of progress. The idea has gained ground on both the left and right: but the right-wing is shot through with misanthropy, while the left remains entangled in a faith in technological progress and the domination of nature. Transcending capitalism at the end of progress requires a synthesis of the two. The result of this synthesis: Dark Socialism. From 'rock star philosopher' Kohei Saito comes an anticapitalist clarion call for our breakneck times, channeling despair into a socialist project equal to the end of progress.
