How to guide and support societal changes driven by geopolitical turbulence, technological advances like AI, and the green energy transition. Steering Structural Change explores looming transformations that both advanced and developing economies face as rising geopolitical tensions, accelerating climate change, and advances in technology disrupt economic structures. These seismic factors demand a fundamental reconsideration of economic policies. Even though there is a general understanding of the policy measures and reforms needed at this juncture, the unequal economic effects and political economy obstacles that they entail can impede their implementation. Technological advances, such as digitalization, automation, and AI, will disrupt labor markets as productivity improvements enhance some occupations but obviate others. The clear aggregate benefits of technological progress will come with large and long-lasting adjustment costs. Uniquely captured in this edited collection, the current debate among experts and economists will help guide the design of effective policies to prepare workers, ease the process of reallocation, and ensure that the collective benefits are broadly shared.

Steering Structural Change

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.

Debt Reckoning

Routledge IAFFE Advances in Feminist Economics

In the wake of the global financial crisis, governments in many countries have imposed widespread cuts in public expenditure and social rights, some of which have been so dramatic that they have been described as 'austericide'. This book explores the financial crisis and the policies implemented in response to it in terms of the differences in the ways in which women and men have been affected by it, using an approach which combines feminist economics and a political economy framework. The book's aim is to question conventional economic theories in order to present more critical and realistic policy approaches. The breadth of the book's exploration of the impact of the cuts, exploring issues such as gender stereotyping and the sustainability of welfare systems, moves it beyond other analyses of gender and the crisis.

India Studies in Business and Economics

This book provides a comprehensive perspective by taking an interdisciplinary approach to issues of attaining SDGs in India. It starts with policy priorities and opportunities for interlinking of different SDGs with sustainable industrial transformation. Subsequently, various chapters present a blend of analytical methods that are primarily rooted in economics and yet have an inter-disciplinary approach, highlighting pathways towards achieving SDGs, especially SDG1, SDG2, SDG3, SDG4, SDG10, SDG11, SDG13, and SDG15. Gender equality and empowerment of women is a common cross-cutting issue across all three themes towards achieving SDG targets. Chapters are divided into three themes climate change, health and nutrition, and poverty and inequality, with a special chapter devoted to each theme providing the overall picture. The book’s content is a great resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and development practitioners studying these SDGs related to India as the country moves forward on its growth path.

Challenges and Way Forward

SDGs Amidst Multiple Global Shocks

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;

'Essential reading to understand today's challenges' MERVYN KING 'This extraordinary tour de force confirms Goodspeed as one of the most brilliant economic minds of his generation' NIALL FERGUSON 'Revolutionary and stimulating' MARTIN WOLF, FINANCIAL TIMES What causes a recession? Do recessions end on their own, or do they require external intervention? Does a recession in one country mean the rest of the world will follow? Are we in a recession now? Economic expert Tyler Goodspeed answers these questions and many more in Recession, a groundbreaking new analysis of economic contractions over the last four centuries. Combining the historian's extensive primary source material and the economist's arsenal of statistical analysis, this book rewrites what we know about recessions. Contrary to popular perception, recessions are not the inevitable bust that follows an unsustainable boom, and they do not operate like wildfires that clear out economic deadwood. Recessions are caused by adverse shocks like war and energy price spikes, and far from unleashing gales of creative destruction, after a recession, economic growth typically resumes the same trend as before-all pain, no gain. While recessions have become less frequent over time, decisions made by businesses and governments can prolong recessions, and Goodspeed offers guidance to avoid making recessions worse. Issuing an important corrective to economic thinking, Recession is essential reading for high-level policymakers and armchair economists alike.

The Real Reasons Economies Shrink and What to Do About It

Recession

Renowned economist Josh Ryan-Collins provides the ideal pedagogical resource for anyone concerned with the major role central banks play in shaping all of our economic opportunities and daily lives. This book provides a concise, authoritative overview of the history and stated purpose of central banks. With critiques of principles and actions that have emerged since the 2008 crash, Ryan-Collins's own and others' proposals offer a solution of how to reform them. In a clear, easy-to-follow structure, it offers historical-normative descriptions of the evolution and role of central banks alongside "myth-busting" chapters explaining the salient critiques of, and proposed alternatives to, principles at the heart of central-bank thinking. Along the way, it covers the major issues preoccupying critical central banking studies and political economics today, including housing inequalities, climate change, digital currencies, and the potential impact of artificial intelligence.

The Gods that Failed

A succinct introduction to the theoretical debate on economic development and stagnation. In this book, André Nassif examines the complexity of economic theory, shaped by the interactions of diverse agents-firms, households, governments, and banks-across various markets. Despite its abstract nature, economic theories can be made accessible through careful explanation. Development and Stagnation covers the main theoretical foundations of economic development and incorporates key contributions from Latin America. Overall, the book offers a comprehensive overview of contemporary debates that critically engages with these theories while maintaining academic rigor.&nbsp;
