Rethink Consumption

How to take back control of your consumer behavior

&lt;p&gt;Introduction.- Understanding Consumption and Luxury Addiction.- Self-Diagnosis and Reflection.- The Causes of Addiction.- The Way Out of the Consumption Trap.- Discovering New Lifestyles.- Long-Term Change.- Conclusion: A Conscious Approach to Consumption.- Helpful Resources and Further Support.- Afterword.&lt;/p&gt;

This book explores the intricate dynamics of sustainable consumption, focusing on the gap between consumer perceptions and actual impact. Despite widespread endorsement of sustainability, high-impact behaviors remain underadopted and misperceived. Through a unique blend of systematic literature review, qualitative interviews, and a comprehensive survey of the Italian population, the authors investigate the barriers and drivers of sustainable consumption. They pay particular attention to the perceived impact and sacrifices associated with transformative shifts in consumption patterns, offering a nuanced understanding of sustainable decision-making.
Key concepts include consumer misperceptions, behavioral barriers, and the cultural narratives shaping sustainability discourses in Italy. The authors provide original insights into the psychological traits influencing sustainable choices, making this book a must-read for those interested in aligning consumer behavior with high-impact sustainable practices. By uncovering the misalignments between intentions and behaviors, the book contributes to climate action debates and offers actionable insights for policymakers and practitioners.
Ideal for scholars, educators, and policymakers, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in promoting effective climate engagement strategies. It is particularly relevant for those in marketing, consumer behavior, psychology, and environmental studies, offering evidence-based insights to lower perceived barriers and encourage high-impact behaviors.

A feminist romp through pop culture that illuminates how women influence and shape the economy. Taylor Swift isn't just a pop megastar. She is a working woman whose astounding accomplishments defy patriarchal norms. And while not all women can be Beyoncé or Dolly Parton or Reese Witherspoon, the successes of these trailblazing stars help us understand the central role of women in today's economy. Swiftynomics assesses the complex economic lives of everyday American women through the stories of groundbreakers like Taylor Swift, Misty L. Heggeness digs into the data, revealing women's hidden contributions and aspirations--the unexamined value they create by pursuing their own ambitions. She highlights the abundance of productive activity in their daily lives and acknowledges the barriers they still face. Exploring critical reforms regarding caregiving and gendered labor, this book offers advice for women to thrive in an economy that was not built for them.

How Women Mastermind and Redefine Our Economy

Swiftynomics

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.

Routledge Studies in Management, Organizations and Society

Navigating Organizational Complexity explores the challenges of contemporary management in an era defined by unpredictability, complexity, and environmental volatility. Drawing on Nassim Taleb's metaphor of the "black swan," the book expands this concept to include a typology of transformative events: Black Swans (negative and unexpected), White Swans (positive and unexpected), Grey Swans (known but neglected threats), and Green Swans (long-term environmental megatrends). Through interdisciplinary analysis, it examines how organizations can build resilience, adapt to uncertainty, and thrive in the face of disruption. It offers practical tools and frameworks for strategic foresight, leadership, and risk management, making it an essential resource for navigating the complexities of the modern business environment. Key features include an innovative approach to the "black swan" metaphor, integrating concepts such as antifragility, organizational resilience, and sustainability. The book combines insights from management, sociology, psychology, and economics, with references to global crises, climate change, and digitization. Readers will benefit from practical strategies for fostering adaptability, learning cultures, and visionary leadership, supported by rich academic literature and real-world examples. It is ideal for academics, researchers, and advanced students in management, organizational studies, and sustainability, as well as business leaders seeking actionable insights to future-proof their organizations.

Resilience and Adaptability from Black Swans to Green

Navigating Organizational Complexity

Why fear of risk is holding us back, and how we can reclaim the confidence to thrive in unpredictable timesSomething is out of sync in today's economy. People feel insecure and unable to reach their potential. We worry that the world has become too risky, that investing is only for the rich, that our nest egg might not last, that it's all or nothing. We retreat into lives of minimal uncertainty. Economist Allison Schrager argues that there has never been a better time to take risks, and yet we as a society have never been more risk-averse. She explains how the fears surrounding risk are unfounded-and that these myths are exactly why so many are falling behind. In the meantime, the very wealthy are still taking risks that generate outsized rewards and widen economic divides.Blending economic history and behavioral science, Schrager traces how our understanding and tolerance of risk have changed-how we have become less willing to open a business, start a family, or even drive a car. Along the way, she reveals the secrets of unconventional risk-takers, from a mob hit man to America's last frontiersman to a high-wire walker.In this reassuring book, Schrager explains how to assess uncertainty, make better choices, and reclaim the upside of risk, allowing each of us to contribute to a more dynamic economy-and to live a more fulfilling life.

Palgrave Macmillan Studies in Banking and Financial Institutions

This book introduces resilience-based concepts and high reliability organization (HRO) principles—adapted from disruption-prone industries—to improve risk management for tail or extreme events in U.S. globally systemically important banks (G-SIBs). HROs thrive in volatile environments by prioritizing adaptability, vigilance, resilience, and safety. Given that both G-SIBs and disruption-prone companies operate in increasingly uncertain and complex settings, there is a shared need for risk management techniques centered on resilience engineering to anticipate and mitigate unexpected extreme events. While G-SIBs are “too big to fail” and provide valuable insights into resilience in high-stakes scenarios, these approaches can benefit banks of all sizes facing similar risks.
The book explores the social world of banking and management, emphasizing the subjective nature of risk as people interpret events differently. Through surveys, interviews, and case studies, the research identifies growing interest in non-predictive risk methods for bank resilience. It recommends supplementing existing quantitative risk models with a transdisciplinary approach focused on non-predictive HRO principles to help banks prevent and mitigate extreme risks. The study finds that current G-SIB risk methods rely heavily on quantitative models, which may create a false sense of security. Additionally, extreme events are increasingly compound and often driven by human behavior. The book targets scholars and professionals seeking advances in resilience engineering within banking.
Pascal vander Straeten has extensive experience in risk management across institutional and corporate banking, project finance, commercial real estate, and emerging markets, working successfully in the US, UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, Luxembourg, and Belgium.
