The American Dream in the Golden Age

Medlock S: The American Dream in the
Golden Age

The Architecture of Hope

The Most Undervalued Economic Asset

Human First. The Credibility Dividend

Economists dream of equilibrium. It's time to wake up. In mainstream economics, markets are ideal if competition is perfect. When supply balances demand, economic maturity is orderly and disturbed only by shocks. These ideas are rooted in doctrines going back thousands of years, yet, as James K. Galbraith and Jing Chen show, they contradict the foundations of our scientific understanding of the physical and biological worlds. Entropy Economics discards the conventions of equilibrium and presents a new basis for thinking about economic issues, one rooted in life processes--an unequal world of unceasing change in which boundaries, plans, and regulations are essential. Galbraith and Chen's theory of value is based on scarcity, and it accounts for the power of monopoly. Their theory of production covers increasing and decreasing returns, uncertainty, fixed investments over time, and the impact of rising resource costs. Together, their models illuminate key problems such as trade, finance, energy, climate, conflict, and demography. Entropy Economics is a thrilling framework for understanding the world as it is and will be keenly relevant to the economic challenges of a world threatened with disorder.

The Living Basis of Value and Production

Entropy Economics

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;

Winners and Losers in the Low Growth Era

The Age of Plunder

Everyone says America is collapsing. The short sellers say it. The YouTubers say it. Chinese state media says it. Your own news feed says it.But have you ever asked: who's making money off your panic? A former conspiracy theorist from China spent four years studying geopolitics, civilizational structure, and power systems. What she found turned her worldview inside out: the conspiracies don't exist. America isn't being hollowed out. It's restructuring - and winning - inside the chaos.$40 trillion in national debt doesn't mean bankruptcy. Go look at the liquidity structure. Political chaos doesn't mean collapse. Go look at how bamboo bends. Everyone votes with their mouth that America is done. Everyone votes with their money that America is the safest place on earth. Money doesn't lie. Mouths do.This book doesn't tell you who to blame. It gives you a new lens.Through a framework called Structural Thinking, Daozi Wu dismantles the three anxieties keeping Americans up at night: The decline anxiety. America holds five structural cards - the dollar, energy, food, technology, and geography - that no country on earth can replicate. A nation that cannot lose doesn't need to win. It just needs to stay at the table while everyone else falls off.The identity anxiety. Stop asking what color someone is. Ask where their money is. If their wealth is in dollars, they're American. If their wealth is moving to gold, they're walking out the door. This single framework - Monetary Citizenship - kills most conspiracy theories before they start.The polarization anxiety. "Make America Great Again" tells you you're broken. This book tells you you're already winning - you just can't see it because your glasses are dirty. Left, right, and conspiracy theorist are all looking through smudged lenses. This book hands you the cloth.Why does it take an outsider to say this? Because when Americans tell Americans "unite," the other side assumes it's a political trick. Only someone with zero American political baggage - no party, no race to protect, no campaign to run - can say it without it getting weaponized.Daozi Wu was born in China. She has lived inside communism, capitalism, Christianity, Buddhism, left-wing progressivism, and far-right conspiracism. She believed in each one. She watched each one collapse. When you've stood everywhere, you have nowhere left to stand. What remains is structure.You don't need to be anxious. You just need to wipe your glasses.The question isn't whether America can win. It's whether Americans still want to.

Routledge Studies in the Economics of Business and Industry

This book offers a comprehensive examination of the factors affecting corporate capital structures across 12 European Union countries, focusing on the influence of country-specific, industry-specific and firm-size-related determinants.It provides a comprehensive review of various interpretations of the capital structure concept and offers a detailed characterisation of commonly employed metrics. Furthermore, it offers an overview of capital structure theories and attempts to classify the factors that shape the financial leverage of enterprises within the framework of these theories. Additionally, it draws readers' attention to contemporary factors potentially affecting corporate financing decisions, such as Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) considerations or technological advances and innovations in finance. It combines theoretical insights with empirical research to explore the direct and indirect impacts of these factors on companies' financing patterns.Targeting a broad readership including students, Ph.D. candidates, researchers, academics and financial practitioners, the book offers a rich understanding of capital structure optimisation and its significance for enhancing company value. Through its coverage of various capital structure theories, determinants and the role of external and internal factors in capital structure decisions, the book is an essential resource for those interested in the complex nature of these influences within the European landscape.With the exception of Chapter 2, no part of this book may be reprinted or reproduced or utilised in any form or by any electronic, mechanical, or other means, now known or hereafter invented, including photocopying and recording, or in any information storage or retrieval system, without permission in writing from the publishers.

Routledge Studies in Central and Eastern European Business and Economics

This book addresses a central puzzle in the study of European integration: why have some post-communist countries successfully embedded democratic and market institutions after EU accession or candidacy, while others have faltered or regressed?This book utilizes principal component analysis to create a unique composite indicator for EU integration readiness, offering a novel approach to assessing economic and social factors. It provides an extensive comparative study of Ukraine's integration readiness alongside Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, Bosnia, and Macedonia. It goes beyond economic indicators, addressing non-economic obstacles such as identity-seeking problems and oligarchic ecosystems, making it a holistic resource for understanding the complexities of EU integration. Introducing the original distinction between self-contained and exported Europeanisation, this book offers a new comparative framework that explains divergent integration outcomes across Central and Eastern Europe and the Western Balkans. By combining theory-driven analysis with country case studies, it demonstrates how the balance between domestic political commitment and EU conditionality shapes long-term integration success.Bridging economics, European studies, comparative politics, and international political economy, this timely book speaks to scholars, students, and policymakers interested in the future of Europe's eastern frontier.

Routledge Focus on Economics and Finance

Between plain resourcefulness and full-blooded entrepreneurship lies a middle ground of proactivity which, as this book argues, is a concept that allows economists to make better sense of activity where an individual takes greater agency over their personal outcomes through the existing employment or additional activity. In this way, proactivity can help economists develop greater understanding of undervalued or understudied areas such as employee self-initiative, protean career orientation, gig contracting, and prosumer activism. In theoretical terms: if economics is perceived as the investigation of the logic of human action, this book presents the case for the concept of proactivity being seen as a vital aspect of the process whereby economic agents bring about more desirable states of affairs with the use of scarce means. Through their proactiveness, individuals can combine several conventionally defined economic roles (e.g., conscious consumers and independent producers or frontline workers and quasi-entrepreneurs) and sources of income (e.g. regular wages and performance-based quasi-profits or regular wages and minority shareholder profits). In turn, this makes it possible to identify previously underappreciated sources of economic growth and furnishes additional arguments against ideas - such as economic nationalism - whose implementation is likely to stunt the productive potential of individuals. This book will be of interest to readers in economic theory, entrepreneurship, economic development, and behavioral economics.

Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy

Covering Institutionalist, Post-Keynesian, Marxist, and Feminist perspectives, Heterodox Economics of Military Spending provides a comprehensive analysis of the effect of military expenditures on the economy.The impact of military spending on economic growth has always been a crucial issue for policymakers and academics. There exists an extensive body of literature on how military spending affects macroeconomic variables, including but not limited to economic growth, profit rates, income inequality, gender inequality, and employment. Different schools of economic thought have proposed various theoretical approaches to investigate the role of military production in a capitalist economy. While some of these approaches are competitive, others complement each other. Heterodox Economics of Military Spending is the first book to analyze the effects of military spending on various macroeconomic perspectives by considering all major alternative economic schools. This book also contributes to the literature by introducing new theoretical models and empirical evidence, with a special focus on its impact on economic growth.This book will be of great interest to readers in defense and peace economics, the history of economic thought, Marxist economic theory, feminist economics, and pluralist approaches to economics.
