Theoretical and Policy Perspectives

Palgrave Studies in Public Debt, Spending, and Revenue

This book examines the interplay of professional norms and political accountability in the process of making decisions about whether, how, and how much debt state and local governments should incur. The careful analysis of accountability in actual decisions, focusing particularly on whether and how individual and collective decision-making behavior responds to general (stipulated) norms and situational (negotiated) expectations in their broader social contexts, is a familiar approach in the study of management and public organizations generally, but has not been extensively applied to this area of public financial decision making. Political economists, especially those identified with the public-choice approach, have done extensive macro-level normative and theoretical analysis of public debt, but not in an empirically rich fashion. This book therefore constitutes a missing link that uses analyses of selected cases to advance conceptual understandings of organizational accountability spaces in general, and decisions to incur public indebtedness and the implications of those decisions specifically, by examining the intersection of the macro, meso, and micro levels of expectations for and practices of public financial decision making.

Milton Friedman and Economic Debate in the United States

The third installment in the definitive account of the famed economist's role in economic debate--and his lasting influence on economic policy. Milton Friedman is widely recognized as one of the most significant contributors to economics in the modern age. Yet no previous study has distilled Friedman's vast body of writings into an authoritative account of his research, his policy views, and his interventions in public debate. Through his sweeping series on the most influential economist of the second half of the twentieth century, Edward Nelson closes this gap: Milton Friedman and EconomicDebate in the United States is the defining narrative on the famed public intellectual--the first to grapple comprehensively with Friedman's research output, economic framework, and legacy. Volume 3 chronicles Friedman's activities from 1973 to 1976, encompassing his final years at the University of Chicago and a period that saw his further ascension in national prominence. In the mid-1970s, economic news dominated American political discourse as the nation endured double-digit inflation and recession. It was during this time that Friedman's views became a center of economic debate in both the research world and public debate, while his explanation for "stagflation" formed part of the critique of stabilization policy that would lead to his 1976 Nobel Prize. Nelson details the controversies that Friedman faced in the media--including his contrarian stances on inflation's cure, the economic implications of oil price shocks, and the social responsibility of business--and how Friedman concluded that the world needed a "new Adam Smith" to press the case for free markets. Drawing upon a large body of documentary sources, interviews with dozens of the people closest to Friedman, and his own expertise in Friedman's research area of monetary analysis, Nelson provides the definitive account of the formative (and uneven) events in Friedman's foray into life as a public intellectual and how his research permanently shifted economic thinking.

ADVANCED MACROECONOMICS: AN INTRODUCTION FOR UNDERGRADUATES (SECOND EDITION)

Palgrave Macmillan Studies in Banking and Financial Institutions

This book offers a timely and interdisciplinary examination of how Regulatory Technology (RegTech) is transforming central banking and financial regulation amid rapid digitalisation and growing sustainability imperatives. Moving beyond conventional treatments of RegTech as a private-sector compliance tool, it positions central banks and regulators as strategic actors in data-driven financial governance. The book explores how artificial intelligence, machine learning, cloud computing, distributed ledger technology, big data analytics, real-time reporting, and programmable compliance are reshaping monetary policymaking, prudential supervision, financial stability, and digital-currency oversight. It also examines regulatory sandboxes, innovation hubs, cybersecurity, climate-risk supervision, ESG integration, sustainable finance, digital assets, and central bank digital currencies. Case studies from developed and emerging economies illustrate regulatory innovation and institutional adaptation. Addressing algorithmic bias, data fragmentation, capacity constraints, interoperability, and cross-border coordination, the book is essential reading for scholars, postgraduate students, policymakers, central bankers, regulators, supervisors, financial institutions, technology practitioners, and global institutions.Ibrahim Nandom Yakubu

A New Compass

The Common Good Economy

For American workers, the social contract is broken. This book gives a firsthand view of where the breaks occurred, and a prescription for rebuilding it to give workers their due. With AI making the decisions and CEOs and moguls making the money, sometimes it seems that most workers today might as well be drones. If not for a long string of missed opportunities over the last 50 years, it might have been different. In Roads Not Taken, Thomas Kochan reviews the turning points where the social contract fractured and broke, reducing workers’ voices as well as their compensation, benefits, and status. And in the lessons learned from these historical examples, he identifies the foundation for building a new labor relations system that ensures workers will share in the benefits from AI and puts America on course for an innovative and durable social contract at work. As a longtime advisor to government, labor, and management leaders, Kochan offers an eyewitness perspective on the mounting mistakes made in America’s labor relations system beginning, roughly, with Ronald Reagan’s firing of striking air traffic controllers in 1981. His book makes a strong case for new strategies on the part of labor unions and other worker advocacy groups, business, and government—strategies not wedded to the legacy labor law and practice that have failed American workers for so long. Recasting the social contract on this basis, Kochan insists, is key to rebuilding our democracy and its institutions after the damage wrought in recent years.

Advances in Japanese Business and Economics

This book is the first comprehensive account of the rules and practices─the microstructure─of the Dojima Security Exchange (DSE), the world’s first futures market. Despite worldwide interest in the DSE and its relevance to modern financial markets, it is only briefly touched upon as the earliest example of a futures market in most of the existing literature in English.&nbsp; Until the publication of this book, there has been no comprehensive account in English of the rules and practices of the DSE.The DSE emerged in Osaka, Japan, around the turn of the eighteenth century. In Tokugawa Japan (1603–1867), the shogunate and local lords levied taxes in rice and exchanged rice for currency in rice markets to finance their expenditures. Osaka had the biggest rice market in Japan throughout the Tokugawa period, and most local lords stored rice in their own warehouses in Osaka, selling rice at auctions. Successful bidders received&nbsp;“rice certificates”&nbsp;instead of rice itself, and each rice certificate could be exchanged for a pre-specified quantity of rice any time before its expiration at the issuer’s warehouse. These certificates were actively traded in the DSE.The spot market in the DSE was the market for exchanging rice certificates. In turn, the futures market was the market for the trading of nominal rice derived from one of the representative rice certificates among about 30 brands. There is no physical delivery of rice in the spot market and there is no physical delivery of rice or rice certificate in the futures market—even on the maturity date. All the futures trades at the DSE should be settled by simply paying or receiving the payoﬀ&nbsp;defined as the diﬀerence in price between the time of selling (buying) and buying back (selling back). The futures trade was called&nbsp;‘Cho-Ai-Mai’, which literally means&nbsp;‘the rice trades on the book’, and implies that there is no physical delivery of rice or rice certificate.

Enorme Ungleichheiten, Klimakatastrophe, schleichende Faschisierung, unumschränkte polizeiliche Kontrolle - das Spektakel des Kapitalismus ist eine riesige Obszönität, die den politischen Vorstellungshorizont zunehmend beschränkt. Dass unter solchen Umständen der Gedanke aufkommt, man solle keine Hoffnungen in die vom Kapitalismus kolonisierten Staatsorgane setzen, ist leicht nachvollziehbar. Doch was ist die Alternative? Wie können wir uns eine Welt vorstellen, die nicht mehr von Institutionen, Bürokratie, Polizei, Lohnarbeit und dem Diktat des Geldes beherrscht wird? Wie lässt sich ein Leben denken - und leben - jenseits von Hierarchie und Herrschaft? 

 In seinem leidenschaftlichen Gespräch mit Félix Boggio Éwanjé-Épée begibt sich der französische Soziologe und Ökonom Frédéric Lordon mitten hinein in die von existenziellen Katastrophen geplagte Gegenwart und zeichnet so mitSchärfe, Witz und intellektueller Brillanz, dabei politische Theorie mit der spinozistischen Idee des Anderswerdens verknüpfend, die Konturen eines Denkens, das nicht resigniert, sondern Mut macht - Mut dazu, sich die eigene Vorstellungskraft zurückzuerobern.

Finance for Professionals

This book addresses a gap in the existing literature by bringing together the disciplines that underpin macro risk management, including macroeconomics, derivatives, quantitative methods, market microstructure, and the behavior of institutional market participants. While these subjects are well covered individually, only a few works examine how they interact in the practice of macro risk management. As macro multi-strategy hedge funds have grown in scale and importance, they have introduced risk management challenges distinct from those found in traditional investment strategies. Written by an industry leader with experience building and leading risk teams across some of the world's most prestigious hedge funds, this book provides an integrated framework for understanding and managing risk in modern macro investing.

Der Autor untersucht, wie durch ein aktives Nachfragemanagement die Endkundennachfrage in Demand Chains zu einer planbaren Einflussgröße transformiert werden kann. Hierzu wurde das zwischen Wertschöpfungsketten bestehende relationale Vertragsverhältnis auf die Beziehung zwischen Endkunden und der endkundennächsten Demand-Chain-Stufe übertragen und mittels Simulationsexperimenten untersucht, wie sich dies auf die Leistung von Demand Chains auswirkt.

Management von Demand Chains – Eine Simulationsstudie

This Palgrave Pivot develops an interdisciplinary approach to household financial decision-making by integrating behavioral finance, consumer finance, financial planning, and human-centered artificial intelligence. Moving beyond investor- and market-focused traditions, it situates financial risk tolerance, financial stress, and dynamic behavioral signals within the lived contexts of households, advisors, and institutions. The book reconceptualizes risk tolerance as a time-varying behavioral construct, positions financial stress as a core mechanism shaping decision-making and well-being, and introduces a framework of behavioral signals, including consumer complaints, sentiment, and market mood, that may precede price movements.It further examines how machine learning and AI can interpret these signals while reshaping financial advice, alongside their methodological limits and ethical implications for accountability and client autonomy. By linking psychological states, behavioral data, and advisory practice, the book offers a structured research agenda for behavioral personal finance and contributes to debates on financial well-being, vulnerability, and technology-mediated decision-making. It will be of interest to scholars and advanced students in behavioral finance, financial planning, consumer science, and decision psychology, as well as practitioners and policymakers concerned with AI and household financial behavior.Wookjae Heo
