Freeing ourselves from the top-down control of tech oligarchs Coded power is social control—power over other people’s relationships. This can be seen today in the top-down control over data exerted by tech oligarchs—billionaires like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. DOGE’s takeover of key government institutions early in the second Trump administration was a particularly blatant example of an attempt to exercise coded power by tapping into critical information systems of government. In this book, Co-Pierre Georg and Katharina Pistor call for empowering data producers—that is, all of us who use AI and search engines, or post on social media—rather than those who control proprietary data infrastructures. Georg, an economist, and Pistor, a legal scholar, explain that coded power emerges when some assert power over the fabric that shapes society. Unchecked, it penetrates deeply into social relationships in order to advance the interests of the coders—the oligarchs—and their clients. Legal coded power goes back centuries. Digital coded power and its effect on our society have become apparent only recently. It is exercised as despotic power imposed by the will of the coders to deny data producers the right to self-determination. Choices about digital technology made in the past, Georg and Pistor argue, were often driven by libertarian ideology rather than technological inevitability. They propose an alternative, decentralized structure, aided by the blockchain and new privacy-enhancing technologies, in which data control is assumed jointly by data creators—and data sharing is determined by creators’ willingness to do so rather than the dictates of digital despots.

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMESBESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MONEY: A USER'S GUIDEWe vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?So why - in the privacy of the therapy room - does money emerge as one of the biggest causes of tension for modern couples? Why is it cited as the major factor in family estrangement between parents, children, and siblings? Why is there a trend for the 'Bank of Mum and Dad' to go to court to retrieve loans they regret handing over?In MONEY: A USER'S GUIDE, Laura showed us how to save into a pension and understand investment. This time, she delves into the really complex stuff - a non-judgemental examination of whether there is a "right" way to share our money with those we love, and what everyone else does behind closed doors. A book that none of us want to admit we need.How do you decide who picks up the bill, or what goes in the joint account? Is your partner being generous or controlling? Is this house mine if your parents paid most of the deposit? How much are you prepared to spend to have a baby? When should we give money to our kids, our mum and dad, our siblings, our community? Should they pay us back? What does everyone else do? Why don't we know? And why does it feel so agonisingly awkward to ask?This is a book of personal finance advice told through real stories about other people's modern money and relationship dilemmas.Laura speaks to financial advisers and wealth managers, marriage counsellors and matchmakers, philosophers, religious leaders, funeral directors and divorce lawyers, to get to the bottom of the questions that can be much more fundamental to our wealth and happiness than where to put our savings.

We vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?

Affective Disorders During Adolescence

How the social organization of Europe and China shaped their divergent economic and political trajectories over the past millennium In the eleventh century, when Europe was still backward and poor, China was a rich and sophisticated civilization. Yet Europe became the birthplace of democracy and the Industrial Revolution, driving the Great Enrichment, while China stagnated until the end of the twentieth century and was always ruled by autocracies. Two Paths to Prosperity traces the emergence of two very different social organizations in premodern China and Europe--the clan and the corporation--showing how they were key factors in the economic and political divergence of these two great civilizations. In this landmark book, three leading economists offer a bold new account of why Europe and China evolved along such different trajectories. In the early Middle Ages, public goods like risk sharing, religious worship, education, and conflict resolution were provided by nonstate organizations in both societies. China increasingly relied on kin-based cooperation within clans, while weaker kinship ties in Europe gave rise to corporations such as guilds, universities, and self-governing towns. Despite performing similar functions, clans and corporations were built on very different principles--with lasting consequences until today. Providing a novel answer to a fundamental question in economic and political history, Two Paths to Prosperity shows how extended kinship in Chinese society facilitated the consolidation of autocracy and hindered innovation and economic development, and how corporations in Europe influenced emerging state institutions and set the stage for the Industrial Revolution.

Anthem Environment and Sustainability Initiative

This textbook is designed to introduce the reader to important and emerging issues in contemporary environmental law, policy, economics, and science. It explains the roles and interactions of Congress, federal agencies, state governments, and the courts in protecting the environment and public health from pollution. Topics include common law; administrative law; the role of environmental impact assessments and endangered species protection; and the principal legislation and court decisions dealing with greenhouse gas emissions, conventional and toxic air pollution, water pollution, the control of toxic chemicals and hazardous waste, pollution prevention and primary accident prevention, and community right-to-know. The text also explores various alternatives to regulation and concludes with a brief treatise on sustainability. 
The evolving role of science and economics in legislative, regulatory, and judicial decision making is explored. The text analyzes pollution as an economic problem and a failure of markets, discusses the role of technological innovation and the concept of "dynamic" economic equilibrium, and evaluates economic incentives as an alternative or supplement to regulation. The book also provides an introduction to basic legal skills: how to read and understand judicial opinions, regulations, and statutes; how to discover the current state of the law in a specific area; and how to take action toward resolution of environmental problems. Throughout, the role of national and local politics in shaping and implementing environmental policy is acknowledged and evaluated.
