International Economics

The Economists’ Hour by Binyamin Appelbaum is the biography of a revolution: the story of how economists who believed in the power and the glory of free markets transformed the business of government, the conduct of business and, as a result, the patterns of everyday life. In the four decades between 1969 and 2008, these economists played a leading role in reshaping taxation and public spending and clearing the way for globalization.

In this incisive new book, Michael Mandelbaum argues that the era marked by an expansive American foreign policy is coming to an end. During the seven decades from the U.S. entry into World War II in 1941 to the present, economic constraints rarely limited what the United States did in the world. Now that will change. The country's soaring deficits, fueled by the huge costs of the financial crash and of its entitlement programs - Social Security and Medicare - will compel a more modest American international presence.

This brilliantly original book dismantles the underlying assumptions that drive the decisions made by companies and governments throughout the world, to show that our shared narrative of the global economy is deeply flawed. If left unexamined, they will lead corporations and countries astray, with dire consequences for us all.

China GDP has grown from $300 per capita to more than $10,000 in the past thirty years and lifted more people into the middle class than in any other country at any other point in human history. It is important for investors, US companies and anyone interested in the global economy to understand China. Author Jonathan A. Krane provides an inside look at China's transformation into a global superpower and explains why the relationship between the US and China is the most critical economic relationship in the world today.

Friends or Just Interests Trade wars often emerge from a cocktail of economic ambition and national pride, but history has repeatedly demonstrated their high costs and low success rates. The interplay between economic isolation and arrogance frequently leads nations to escalate conflicts, assuming their economies can thrive independently. Yet, the reality of global interdependence exposes such assumptions as dangerously flawed. To subdue the hubris that fuels trade wars, one must revisit the historical truth: they are rarely, if ever, victorious. From the 1930s Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act that ...

For 75 years, the basic patterns of world politics and the contours of international economic activity took place in the shadow of American leadership and the institutions it designed—an order designed to avoid the horrors of previous eras, including, most poignantly, two world wars and the Great Depression. But all things must pass. The global financial crisis of 2008, the legacy of two long, losing wars, and the polarizing and tumultuous presidency of Donald Trump all suggest that global affairs have reached a turning point. The implications of this are profound.

In Terror Incorporated, Loretta Napoleoni maps out the arteries of an international economic system that feeds armed groups the world over. Chasing terror money, she takes the reader from CIA headquarters to the smuggling routes of the far East, from the back rooms of Wall Street to hawala exchanges in the Middle East.

All the experts agree: The 21st century belongs to China. Given America's looming insolvency and the possibility of the collapse of the US dollar, who can doubt that China is poised to take over the role of economic superpower? Written by political economist and leading financial journalist James Gorrie, this audiobook offers a highly controversial, contrarian view of contemporary China. Drawing upon a wealth of historical and up-to-the-minute data, Gorrie makes a strong case that China, itself, is on the verge of an economic crisis of epic proportions.

Ricordi quando vivevi nel migliore dei mondi possibili, e non te ne accorgevi neanche? Quando eri certo che il futuro sarebbe stato migliore del presente. Quando sapevi che i tuoi figli avrebbero trovato lavoro a un chilometro da casa. Quando potevi sognare senza sembrare un illuso. Quando dovevi sforzarti per accorgerti della disoccupazione. Quando il terrorismo sembrava un relitto del passato. Quando il concetto stesso di immigrazione pareva sul punto di perdere significato, perché stavamo per andare a vivere in un mondo unico, in cui le piccole aziende non chiudevano.

In recent years, small Greece, often associated with ancient philosophers and marble ruins, whitewashed villages and cerulean seas, has been at the center of a debt crisis that has sown economic and social ruin, spurred panic in international markets, and tested Europe's decades-old project of forging a closer union. In The Full Catastrophe, James Angelos makes sense of the contrasting images of Greece, a nation both romanticized for its classical past and castigated for its dysfunctional present.

Few territories are as hotly contested as the western Pacific Ocean. Across the 1.5 million square mile expanse of the East and South China Sea, six countries lay overlapping claims that date back centuries. China, Vietnam, Korea and Indonesia assert their right to trade routes, deploying military garrisons to defend disputed territories while Japan, Vietnam and the Philippines resist their expansion.

Экономика – это очень скучно. Куча непонятны заумных слов и формул? Кто вам такое сказал? Экономика это интересно и просто! Вы просто не знаете, с каким соусом ее нужно подавать, на какой стороне пережевывать и долго ли жевать. Все базовые знания о ней и много больше вы получите из книги Хулиномика, а также найдете немало интересных ответов на вопросы по типу: Как появилась биржа, и почему в России она круче? ; Кого облапошила английская королева? ; Как говнюки становятся директорами? ; Что такое акции и что с их прелестью можно делать?

Investimenti, mutui, tassi di interesse, risparmio, inflazione, spread, piani pensionistici: la finanza non è una materia fredda e astratta, ma una presenza molto concreta nella vita di ciascuno di noi. Eppure, parlare apertamente di soldi per tantissime persone è ancora un tabù, le notizie di economia e finanza ci incutono soggezione e pensare alla crescente incertezza del futuro ci preoccupa. In La finanza chiara e semplice, Ginevra Zucconi ci invita innanzitutto a non aver paura di avvicinarci a questi temi, e poi a prendere confidenza con i concetti cardine dell’educazione finanziaria.

War in Ukraine, a global hunger crisis, the West's cost of living crisis—the eruptions of 2022 were all too predictable. In Price Wars, Rupert Russell lays out just how these crises are connected and how many such events plunged the 2010s into a decade of turmoil.

A spirited and incisive survey of economic geography, A World Made for Money begins with the author stopped at a red light in Norman, Oklahoma. Observing the landscape of drugstores and banks, and for that matter the stoplight and roads themselves, Bret Wallach observes, "Everything I see has been built to make money" or, at the very least, to facilitate making money. This, he argues, is a global phenomenon that nonetheless has occurred only within the past hundred years or so.

Die Fronten sind verhärtet: hier die Anhänger des Degrowth, die negative Wachstumsraten für unverzichtbar halten - dort die Mehrheit der Wachstumsgläubigen, die noch immer von zweistelligen Zuwächsen träumt. Radikale Rhetorik und Konzepte scheinen mehr denn je nötig zu sein, um sich Gehör zu verschaffen. Doch gibt es wirklich keine Lösungen dazwischen? Für Jorgen Randers und Graeme Maxton ist es höchste Zeit, Realitäten anzuerkennen und Denkblockaden zu überwinden.

India is at a crossroads today. Its growth rate, while respectable relative to other large countries, is too low for the jobs our youth need. Intense competition in low-skilled manufacturing, increasing protectionism globally and growing automation make the situation still more difficult. In this book, the authors explain how we can accelerate economic development by investing in our people’s human capital, expanding opportunities in high-skilled services and manufacturing centered on innovative new products, and making India a ferment of ideas and creativity.

China ist keine ferne Bedrohung mehr, China ist da! Politisch und wirtschaftlich.

China setzt auf Wachstum und digitale Technologien und hält sich nicht mit dem westlichen Demokratiemodell auf. Auf allen Kontinenten investiert es in Bodenschätze, Schlüsselindustrien und Infrastruktur - auch bei uns.
