A giant of the political left, Rosa Luxemburg is one of the foremost minds in the canon of revolutionary socialist thought. But she was much more than just a thinker. She made herself heard in a world inimical to the voices of strong-willed women. She overcame physical infirmity and the prejudice she faced as a Jew to become an active revolutionary whose philosophy enriched every corner of an incredibly productive and creative life—her many friendships, her sexual intimacies, and her love of science, nature and art. Always opposed to the First World War, when others on the German left were swept up on a tide of nationalism, she was imprisoned and murdered in 1919 fighting for a revolution she knew to be doomed. In this beautifully drawn work of graphic biography, writer and artist Kate Evans has opened up her subject’s intellectual world to a new audience, grounding Luxemburg’s ideas in the realities of an inspirational and deeply affecting life.

This book will be essential reading to all those studying and researching in the field of institutional economics.

Economic and social institutions are more and more important in modern economic systems. Efficiency, equity and also economic evolution depend on them. Indeed, since the pioneering analyses of Coase, North and Williamson huge progress has been made in the understanding of the influence of institutions on the working of economic systems. However, institutions are still a rather disregarded topic both in the analysis of economic phenomena and in the design of economic policies. This book offers a critical assessment of the results achieved so far by the various strands of Institutional Economics that paves the way for further improvements.Economic Perspectives on Institutions provides an introduction to the economic analysis of institutions, particularly with respect to the core issues of conflict, coordination and inequality, offering an essential synthesis of what we have learnt so far and highlighting the major gaps to be filled.

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.

Contemporary U.S. Approaches to North American Regionalism

Rural development is one of the most complex and topical research areas, requiring interdisciplinary approaches and the proposal of multifunctional, sustainable economic development models grounded in both theoretical and empirical studies. Such studies emphasize socio-economic indicators that can improve policy approaches to analysis, evaluation, and decision-making. Shifts in rural development policies-from a sectoral to a multisectoral perspective and, more recently, to a territorial approach that embraces local community development-highlight the need for socio-economic indicators related to rural development opportunities generated by various domains (e.g., agriculture, tourism). Rural areas are among those experiencing the most profound transformations in recent years, driven by demographic challenges, economic fluctuations and uncertainties, environmental risks, and the impacts of climate change. These factors significantly increase population vulnerability worldwide in rural regions. Population growth and resource scarcity or depletion become even more acute when access to education, financial resources, or transportation infrastructure is limited by unbalanced investments and inadequate planning resulting from deficient administrative systems. Conversely, the rapid development of digital technologies-including smart agriculture, smart household technologies, and digital systems of education and administration-demonstrates clear opportunities for growth and development while improving resource accessibility for rural regions and among more vulnerable demographic groups.

Economic Indicators Relating to Rural Development

Viele Menschen arbeiten hart und fühlen sich dennoch unsicher. Dieses Buch erklärt verständlich, warum das Versprechen "Arbeit schützt vor Armut" immer seltener gilt und welche Rolle politische Entscheidungen dabei spielen. Es beleuchtet verbreitete Annahmen über Leistung, Bürgergeld und Sozialstaat, ordnet aktuelle Debatten ein und zeigt, welche Reformen soziale Sicherheit stärken können. Auf Grundlage von Forschung und Beispielen entwickelt es das garantierte Mindesteinkommen als realistische Perspektive für eine gerechtere Arbeitsgesellschaft. Klaus-Uwe Gerhardt forscht zu Arbeitsmarkt- und Sozialpolitik.

In a movement-defining book, the "godmother of the current moment of dissatisfaction with establishment politics" (The New York Times) tells the story of the rising anti-monopoly movement and charts a course to a democratic future In a short, sharp political book, The Nation magazine's "Anti-Monopolist" columnist and "a prophet of the resurgent left" (Franklin Foer) explains the battle between the forces of oligarchy and the rise of the new anti-monopoly movement. Using the stories of modern anti-monopoly heroes including Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan; blueberry farmer Hugh Kent, who turned his battle with Driscoll's into a farmers' movement; and Doha Mekki, the daughter of a Sudanese asylum seeker who took on Google and won; Teachout explains how anti-monopoly cuts across traditional political lines and gives real teeth to economic populism.Teachout, a scholar of the law of democracy and a politician whose run for governor of New York State shocked the political establishment, argues that monopoly is the architecture of private tyranny, and that breaking corporate power is essential to building a new democracy. From AI to agriculture, healthcare to energy, Americans understand that corporate concentration doesn't just cause inequality; it organizes power. Anti-Monopoly gives that feeling a name, a history, and a way forward. After a spate of books out of the Abundance movement arguing that we need to remove local democracy and focus on efficiency at scale, this book provides a sharp counterpoint.

Compared to their larger Asian counterparts, Philippine conglomerates have tracked a unique growth trajectory in the face of chronic poverty, economic inequality, and political conflict. While there are many studies about the zaibatsus of Japan and the chaebols of South Korea, there has been minimal research on Philippine conglomerates and their contributions to the successful turnaround of an economy that was once considered the region's perennial laggard.In this collection of essays, the authors interrogate the relationship between conglomerates and inclusive development by highlighting the Philippine experience and comparing it with those of other Southeast and East Asian economies, notably Vietnam, Indonesia, and South Korea. Have Philippine conglomerates been central to the country's economic miracle? How have they contributed to the attainment of the government's inclusive development agenda? What can be learned from the successes and failures of other Asian conglomerates? These are the key themes this volume seeks to answer to shed light on how conglomerates have impacted the course of the country's economic development.
