Knott A: The US Innovation War with
China

The US Innovation War with China

Bringing a Knife to a Gunfight

Why Big Labor moved to the right— and the fight ahead for the left to win back America’s working class Unions helped construct the American middle class, defeat Jim Crow, and advance progressive rights, but in Trump’s America, the labor movement is changing. In Big Labor's Big Shift, journalist Nathan Bomey explores how Big Labor and the working class are no longer an automatic ally of the American left. Fueled by decades of economic decline, political disillusionment, and cultural disenfranchisement, new politically nebulous and economically populist leaders in the movement are building a powerful new movement based on class warfare that prizes wage and benefit gains over traditional progressive priorities. Through original reporting and first-hand interviews, Bomey traces key events that have led to this political shift. Bomey reveals: -At the Teamsters, president Sean O’Brien is cozying up to Donald Trump and blasting Democrats as tools of big business, even showing up at the Republican National Convention to deliver his message. -At the United Auto Workers, president Shawn Fain is seizing an opportunity to break the free trade consensus in Washington. The devout Christian, who wields religious rhetoric from the stump, is aligning with the Trump White House on tariffs and blasting Democrats for aggressively pursuing electric vehicles to fight climate change. Bomey shows how the two interconnected phenomena represent a massive political realignment—not just along cultural and nationalism lines, but of the working class itself away from its historic roots in the Democratic party. Urgent and compelling, Big Labor's Big Shift encapsulates the fight for the soul of the union movement.

Why Unions Left Democrats

Big Labor's Big Shift

A fresh interpretation of the Enlightenment that reshapes our understanding of political economy and its intellectual foundations.The origins of political economy are often told as a story of increasing certainty, rationality, and scientific progress. But what if its earliest thinkers were instead preoccupied with uncertainty? In Doubtful Knowledge, Richard Adelman offers a striking new interpretation of eighteenth-century political economy by tracing its roots to the skeptical philosophy of the European Enlightenment.Moving between Scotland and France, Adelman reveals how figures including David Hume, Adam Smith, Denis Diderot, Jean Le Rond d'Alembert, François Quesnay, and the Physiocrats developed a shared understanding of the limits of human knowledge. Rather than presenting markets or societies as systems that could be fully understood or controlled, they emphasized the complexity of the social world, the fallibility of human judgment, and the need for intellectual humility. Through close readings of major philosophical and political-economic texts, Adelman demonstrates that skepticism was not peripheral to early political economy but fundamental to its emergence. Challenging long-held assumptions about the history of economics and Enlightenment thought, Doubtful Knowledge reframes debates about commerce, governance, progress, and human nature.By bringing together intellectual history, literary studies, philosophy, and the history of political economy, Adelman offers a compelling account of how eighteenth-century thinkers understood knowledge itself--and why their questions remain relevant to contemporary discussions about economics, politics, and the limits of expertise.

Banking, Money and International Finance

The emergence of financial technologies has unlocked a myriad of possibilities for reshaping governance systems, from the grassroots level of micro-governance to the broader scope of national and transnational governance. This book thoroughly examines the significant impact of cutting-edge financial technology on enhancing worldwide access to financial services. In an era marked by persistent governance challenges, it highlights the transformative potential of AI-driven solutions in fostering more equitable economic participation. Overcoming traditional banking barriers to serve underserved and unbanked communities, the book investigates the fourth wave of fintech innovation depicted by AI, blockchain technologies and decentralized systems. The book begins by presenting the fundamentals of digital innovation, particularly emphasising the transformative role of AI-powered financial tools in improving banking experiences for various global communities. It emphasizes the role of digital payment platforms in bridging the gap between urban and rural populations, as well as the way blockchain technology and smart contracts are setting new benchmarks for transaction security and transparency. Its primary focus is on the strategies for overcoming financial exclusion. Cybersecurity compliance, ethical AI, data governance, and regulatory coordination are considered essential for creating trustworthy digital financial systems. Additionally, it thoroughly examines the alternative credit scoring methods that use non-traditional data to transform lending and presents the opportunities and challenges that will shape the future of finance, with a particular emphasis on central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), sustainable blockchain solutions, and artificial intelligence collaborations. For scholars, researchers and policymakers working to create a more accessible and sustainable financial future, the book offers a thorough overview of the state of inclusive fintech today and a predictive outlook on how technology can promote global economic equity.

A Simple 12-Step Plan to Start Investing and Grow Your Own Wealth

Miss Independent

Klimawandel, Digitalisierung und technologische Revolution haben die globale Wirtschaftsordnung tiefgreifend verändert. Unsicherheit und Ängste treffen dabei auf eine zunehmende Konzentration finanzieller und politischer Macht. Genau in diesem Spannungsfeld findet der Rechtspopulismus seinen Nährboden. Auf die Märkte blickt der Rechtspopulismus durch die Brille der Macht. Das gilt vor allem für den globalen Handel. Es geht nicht um fairen Wettbewerb, sondern um Durchsetzung nationalistischer Interessen. An die Stelle globaler Kooperation treten geopolitische Konflikte. Diese Logik prägt auch die Binnenwirtschaft, wenn wirtschaftliche Macht genutzt wird, um unliebsame Gruppen unter Druck zu setzen. 
Gustav Horn stellt diesem Konfliktmodell eine kooperative Wirtschaftspolitik entgegen. Im Mittelpunkt steht ein aufgeklärter Protektionismus im EU-Außenhandel, der schützt, aber nicht abschottet. Dazu gehört die Kooperation mit allen Handelspartnern, die sich dem Freihandel verpflichtet fühlen. Um in einem konfliktträchtigen Umfeld bestehen zu können, ist ein dynamischer EU-Binnenmarkt mit Gütern der Daseinsvorsorge als Standbein unerlässlich. Dies lässt sich mit einem Dreiklang aus Intelligenz, Innovationen und Investitionen erreichen, indem in ein hervorragendes Bildungssystem, Innovationskultur und nachhaltige europäische Infrastruktur investiert wird. All dies zeigt die Überlegenheit eines kooperativen Vorgehens gegenüber dem derzeit gängigen Konfliktmodell, das Wohlstand zu vernichten droht.

Foundations of Fashion Studies

By the 1940s the New York fashion industry had come into its own. Sportswear, which had evolved from its origins to include simple casual wear for travel, leisure, town and country, was at the centre of this shift. Drawing on an array of sources, this book examines how New York sportswear evolved during the 1930s and 1940s to become the definitive American style. It reveals how designers such as Claire McCardell, Clare Potter and Tina Leser created a fashion identity for New York that was as dynamic and modern as the city itself. Author Rebecca Arnold interrogates the American ideal of athletic, long-limbed women and looks for the first time at how sportswear impacted and was impacted by ideas of patriotism and democracy, as well as its links to notions of cleanliness and hygiene, and to 1930s theories of body image and contemporary dance. As part of the Foundations of Fashion Studies series, this classic text now includes a new foreword by Emma McClendon and a new afterword and further reading list by the author.
