The Next One Hundred Years

An original discussion of how to find exciting competitive opportunities by reexamining how you do business For decades, business leaders have chased advantage through efficiency, innovation, and scale. But a deeper truth has emerged: no company can thrive in a society that is failing. After World War II, Western democracies invested boldly in trust, fair capitalism, and education-three engines that unleashed prosperity across the free world.&nbsp; Today, those engines are seizing. Trust in institutions has collapsed. Economic fairness is eroding. Education-the foundation of innovation and progress-has become unaffordable and unequal. As democracy falters, the very marketplace that business depends on is destabilizing. The era of societal bankruptcy has arrived. Yet within this crisis lies extraordinary opportunity. In The Future of Competitive Advantage, bestselling author and business futurist Doug Stephens lays out an inspiring new blueprint for succeeding in an age of uncertainty. He reveals how radical trust, fairness in action, and collective intelligence are not soft ideals but hard strategies-the next generation of business superpowers. Stephens argues that by defending democracy, companies will secure their customers, empower their people, and strengthen their brands-creating a future where doing good is not a trade-off, but the ultimate competitive advantage. <ul> <li>A New Lens on Prosperity - Discover the powerful historical connection between trusted democracy, fair capitalism, and universal education-and how these forces once ignited the greatest era of shared prosperity in history.</li> <li>The Warning Signs - Uncover the economic, social, and political currents now eroding these foundations-and the hidden risks they pose to every business sector.</li> <li>The Strategic Opportunity - Learn why today's leaders who actively defend democracy will unlock the next great wave of competitive advantage.</li> <li>The Blueprint for Action - Follow a clear, step-by-step business plan for strengthening democracy while amplifying investor confidence, employee commitment, customer loyalty, and brand integrity.</li> </ul> The Future of Competitive Advantage is more than a book - it's a business plan to save your customers, your company the democracy your business depends on.

A Business Plan to Save Your Customers, Your Company, and Democracy

The Future of Competitive Advantage

Development and Its Discontents is a critical examination of development studies' history and what it has become, and what it might yet be. It argues that the field is increasingly differentiated along competing modes of thought, worldviews, and claims to knowledge, bringing long-running debates about the study of development back into sharp focus. Drawing on cross-disciplinary thinking on development, from the rise of classical development economics and the anti-colonial momentum of the Bandung era to contemporary decolonial critiques, the book maps the intellectual currents that have shaped development studies and the tensions and debates that now structure it. The result is a framework for recognising the field's internal pluralism and for taking interdisciplinarity more seriously, without pretending that its disagreements are merely semantic. For scholars and students, Development and Its Discontents offers a guide to the intellectual architecture of development studies, its contested boundaries, and the questions now shaping its future.

Development and its Discontents

If discussions about interest rates, debt, or inflation sound like economic sorcery, you're not alone. Much of what we hear about macroeconomics-from politicians, pundits, or even professors-bears little resemblance to how economists think about policy and to people's actual experiences. Macro bridges that gap.In clear and engaging prose, Chicago economist Greg Kaplan demystifies how our everyday behavior, including how we spend and save, connects to the biggest questions in fiscal and monetary policy. Tracing the evolution of modern macroeconomics from Keynes to today, he guides readers through the models that are often used to explain our economy, uncovers their flaws, and reveals what cutting-edge research tells us about managing the economy in good times and bad. The journey culminates in HANK, a macroeconomic model co-created by Kaplan that is more consistent with reality. Macro offers a timely, new framework for understanding and shaping economics in the real world.

Routledge Studies in North American Politics

Speaking to wider debates of U.S. foreign policy and grand strategy, its interests and motivations in International Relations and International Political Economy, and processes of regionalism with regard to political-economic integration. NAFTA-land Security present a clear, important and original argument to all those struggling with how best to understand the overall policy aims that drive U.S. thinking, and how they relate to global trends and developments in U.S. foreign policy.

North America is increasingly an integrated economic hub, and Canada and Mexico are important to the U.S. (and vice versa) in terms of energy security, trade, cross-border production, and more. This has made regional security and stability more strategically important than the already high level it had attained through geography. In order to understand North America’s growing strategic significance, we need to take a closer look at U.S. policy within the region. In this book, Paul Ashby examines how U.S. now considers North America, defined regionally as the countries within the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), as a distinct and strategically important economic and security space. Through closer examination of several policy programs with both Canada and Mexico, Ashby demonstrates how the U.S. is actively constructing a regional, North American security architecture based around, but also operating within NAFTA’s perimeters. He contends that increased regional economic integration and important interdependencies spurred by NAFTA are driving, and that these were given far greater impetus by the events and regional impacts of 9/11. North America’s growing strategic importance to the U.S. has encouraged it to take regional security more seriously. Speaking to wider debates of U.S. foreign policy and grand strategy, its interests and motivations in International Relations and International Political Economy, and processes of regionalism with regard to political-economic integration. NAFTA-land Security present a clear, important and original argument to all those struggling with how best to understand the overall policy aims that drive U.S. thinking, and how they relate to global trends and developments in U.S. foreign policy.

God's Philanthropist examines the worldview and philanthropic aspirations of the investor turned philanthropist, Sir John Templeton (1912-2008). Drawing on his books, essays, interviews, and occasional works, it reconstructs what Templeton believed people's lives, and the societies in which they lived, should look like, and investigates the philanthropic means by which he hoped to turn those ideals into reality. God's Philanthropist focuses on three key areas--religion, political economy, and modern science--upon which Templeton reflected at length and from which he repeatedly drew to construct his views of the nature of reality, the well-lived life, the well-ordered society, and history. The wide-ranging worldview that he developed directly informed the instructions he bequeathed to his philanthropic organizations. These instructions represent the institutionalization of Templeton's ideas for achieving material and spiritual progress and reflect his understanding of the domains in which he thought progress most needs to be made, the methods by which it will be made, the people most likely to make it, the political and economic conditions likely to best facilitate it, the theological convictions that frame and justify it, and the incentives that will encourage such progress to continue being made long into the future. Providing the first comprehensive account of the main strands of his thought, God's Philanthropist enables readers to identify which of the complex array of forces shaping our world are consistent with, and potentially attributable to, Templeton and his philanthropic organizations. Equipped with this knowledge, readers will be better positioned to decide whether the directions in which Templeton wants to take us are those in which society should go.

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

It's Not Too Late

The European Green Deal appears to have lost some of its impetus: political priorities have changed. Competitiveness, resilience and less bureaucracy are the topics of the day, even used as arguments to reverse achievements of the Green Deal. However, mitigating climate change, and adapting to its consequences, have lost none of their importance: failure to act now risks imposing a disproportionate burden on the young generation; greater resilience against the uncertainties of our time depends on suitable environmental conditions, the availability of workforce, and good and stable international relations. The stocktake offered by this volume establishes where we stand, and whether we can really afford to shift the focus to other priorities.

Green Deal II - on track for 2030 and 2050?

Javier Milei and the Libertarian Wave

A central concern of economists, policymakers and civil society in recent years has been the persistent and widespread slowdown in global productivity growth.This stands in stark contrast to the robust productivity performance and associated prosperity witnessed across advanced economies in previous decades. The productivity slowdown represents a significant concern because it underpins the tensions emerging from income and wealth inequality, an expanded corporate profit share and geopolitical friction as established and emerging economic powers vie for global market supremacy. History offers numerous examples of technological advancement coinciding with heightened economic uncertainty and political discontent, yet these were predominantly periods of accelerated productivity growth. This volume delivers a guide to the contested terrain through a diversity of perspectives spanning mainstream economic analysis to institutional and political economy frameworks. It encompasses topics ranging from the definition and measurement of productivity to the function of research and innovation, financialisation and business dynamism, management quality and workplace relations and the existential implications and opportunities presented by climate change.Understanding Productivity targets policymakers, students across multiple disciplines and readers eager to examine the productivity 'black box', to participate in an informed exploration of theory and evidence-based perspectives and to formulate their own conclusions about this critically important dimension of contemporary economic discourse and debate.

The law codes in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region are a well-crafted blend of civil and Islamic law in which civil law principles do not violate Islamic provisions. Yet, common law principles derived either from English common law or Islamic customary usages remain unidentified and thus ignored. Here, this complex scenario is rectified through a comparative analysis of the primary data (e.g. cases, statutes and arbitral award decisions), adding common law and uncodified Islamic custom to MENA law codes. The purpose of this comparative analysis is to allow common legal principles found in civil, common and Islamic law to be distilled in order to create a new, harmonised international commercial arbitration law code (HICALC) or uniform Arab arbitration law (UAAL) for adoption in the MENA region, where these principles already greatly influence the legal systems and can be readily assimilated into a harmonised or uniform code. The work demonstrates that this new code would lead to improved arbitral award enforcement in the MENA.
