Automation in Governance

Yale Program on Financial Stability Series

A critical examination of the Federal Reserve-told by the policymakers, economists, and observers who know it bestThe Federal Reserve is one of the most powerful institutions in the world-and one of the least understood. Drawing on twenty-one interviews with former governors, reserve bank presidents, staff economists, lawmakers, journalists, scholars, international central bankers, and investors, Fed Reckoning explores how the institution has navigated the defining upheavals of the modern era: the global financial crisis, the pandemic shock, the post-2021 inflation surge, and the banking turmoil of 2023. It traces the modern Federal Reserve from Volcker to Powell, examining its evolving approach to the dual mandate, financial stability, regulation and supervision, and communication.Just as importantly, these interviews reveal the people behind the institution: their judgments, disagreements, frustrations, and sense of mission. The result is a candid, deeply informed portrait of the Federal Reserve at a moment when its power is immense, its independence is under pressure, and its future path is far from certain-and essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how it makes and defends its decisions.

Islamic Law in Context

Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿa and Intergenerational Justice

Governance of Common Resources and Islamic Law

There is a climate crisis, extinctions are accelerating, forests are disappearing, water cycles are collapsing and pollution is choking our skies and seas. 

It is easy to be defeatist about the fate of our planet. 

And yet, despite it all, it's not too late: things can change for the better. 

Fred Pearce has been reporting from the frontline of climate change and environmental recovery for over four decades and what he has seen has given him reason - in fact, seven reasons - for (cautious) hope. Here, we learn how nature is finding ways to thrive in unexpected places, how the population bomb has been defused, how our consumerist societies are finally approaching 'peak stuff', and how a combination of ancient wisdom and modern technology can help us correct our course.

Despite It All

Routledge Environmental Humanities

With particular focus on more-than-human experience, this creative-critical book explores the role of literary storytelling in representing and communicating the oceanic environmental crisis.While investigating the creative potential of scholarship in material ecocriticism and the blue humanities, this book examines the theoretical tools needed while developing the poetic and creative role of scholarship in imagining a livable oceanic future. To overcome anthropocentric views of nature, it argues that a fluid and more-than-human literary form is needed. This is developed in the book as a 'jellyfish poetics': a literary structuring device based on the jellyfish life cycle. The book not only theorises this new form, but also enacts it, presenting original and innovative research that embodies a synthesis between creative and scholarly approaches. With its main focus being more-than-human experience of oceanic environmental issues, central case studies are jellyfish, ecological depletion in the North Sea and recent nature-based Dutch water management.This is an important book for scholars interested in the intersection of blue humanities and creative writing as well as the wider environmental humanities. Additionally, it is relevant to practitioners, writers and educators who grapple with the challenge of representing environmental crisis.

Jellyfish Poetics

Literary Storytelling and the Environmental Crisis of the Oceans

In Deutschland sind unfassbare Mengen von Kapital und Macht in den Händen Weniger konzentriert. Das hat reale Auswirkungen auf unser tägliches Leben – und dennoch wird zu selten über die Folgen gesprochen. Dabei zeigt sich die Diktatur der Superreichen immer deutlicher in einer zunehmend gespaltenen, unsolidarischen Gesellschaft, in verengten Debattenräumen und autoritären Tendenzen.Sebastian Klein und Svenja Behrens untersuchen in ihrem neuen Buch, was es bedeutet, wenn nicht nur sehr viel Geld, sondern auch sehr viel Macht bei einer kleinen Minderheit konzentriert ist. Wer hält dieses System der Geldvermehrung am Laufen? Und warum setzen Politiker:innen sich so bereitwillig für die Belange sehr reicher Menschen ein? Auf der Spur intransparenter Machtsysteme haben die Autor:innen mit Milliardär:innen, professionellen Vermögensvermehrer:innen, Politiker:innen und Menschen gesprochen, die die toxische Macht der Superreichen brechen wollen. Dieses Buch ist eine scharfsinnige Diagnose des Systems, auf dem die Macht der Reichen basiert, und es liefert konstruktive Strategien, wie wir unsere Demokratie retten können.

Rising Legal Metropolises and Urban Challenges

Asian Cities and the International Legal Order

In a moment of interlocking and compounding crises that many commentators have aptly termed the "polycrisis," a leading economist offers a clear-eyed account of the underlying trends fueling the global instability and market mayhem that have come to characterize contemporary capitalism. 
 
Rampant inequality. Unchecked climate change. A global pandemic. And now, seething international divisions and the escalatory spiral of war and state violence. As the world moves toward the end of the 2020s, each of the pieces of this mosaic are becoming impossible to ignore, but how do they all fit together? And where is it all heading? 
 
To answer these questions, Marxist economist Michael Roberts draws on his forty-plus years of experience working in various financial institutions in the City of London to provide an empirically grounded and wide-ranging appraisal of the global situation. 
 
Roberts takes readers on a tour of the contemporary global economy, first by turning back to the Great Recession of 2008, and then offering a granular look at the economic priorities and contradictions of every region of the world. 
 
What emerges from this accounting of the polycrisis is the inescapable fact that capitalism's rapacious drive toward profit over and against any geopolitical boundaries or ecological limits threatens both humanity and the planet.&nbsp;

Pasquale L. Scandizzo holds a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley. He is Professor of Political Economy, past Director and Fellow of the Center for Economic and International Studies, Senior Fellow and Member of the Advisory Board of the University of Rome “Tor Vergata” Foundation, President of the Villa Mondragone Economic Development Association, President Emeritus of the Italian Society of Development Economics, and Chairman of OpenEconomics International, a university spin off focusing on project evaluation and economic development. His former institutional positions include the Governing Board of the Italian Institute of Statistics, the Italian Institute for Economic Planning (President), the National Planning Board, the Italian Parliamentary Budget Committee (Senior Adviser), the Ministry of Economics and Finance (Economic Adviser) the World Bank (Senior Economist and Research Coordinator). He has developed widely published methodologies to evaluate public investment programs, by combining option theory, cost benefit analysis and computable general equilibrium methods, and
 
 has been advising the World Bank and other multilateral institutions on the applications of these methodologies to policies of sustainable development.

This study explores the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the tourism sector, emphasizing its role in enhancing service quality, operational efficiency, and global reach. To assess future impacts, the study uses a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) and a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model built on GTAP 11 data. A scenario analyzing €66 billion in AI-tourism investments across G7 and other nations suggests strong short-term returns, particularly for capital and skilled labor, with the U.S. leading due to favorable infrastructure and market conditions. These findings point to the need for skill development and equitable policy design. AI’s capacity to personalize experiences and optimize operations positions it as a key driver of sustainable growth in tourism, with considerable economic spillovers and transformative potential across global markets.

Neuanfang

Humanity's most spectacular era yet is increasingly within reach.So why are we doing everything we can to hold it back?The bestselling author of The Rational Optimist delivers a daring vision of the future - one that is potentially dazzling, but only if we stop sleepwalking into self-inflicted decline.We're on the brink of a truly spectacular explosion of productivity and prosperity, argues Matt Ridley, thanks to a combination of artificial intelligence, material science and genomic knowledge that is unprecedented in its scope and implications. With characteristic wit and ferocity, he confronts the irrational pessimism that dominates public discourse and examines the bureaucratic bloat, regulatory overreach, ideological superstition and crony capitalism that stand in the way.Optimistic in conclusion but unsparing in its analysis, The Flourishing is a rousing call to achieve and innovate by refusing to settle for a merely adequate future when a magnificent one is within reach.
