Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) The period since 1989 has been marked by the global endorsement of open markets, the free flow of finance capital and liberal ideas of constitutional rule, and the active expansion of human rights.

Banking on Words: The Failure of Language in the Age of Derivative Finance
ISBN: 9780226318639 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) In this provocative look at one of the most important events of our time, renowned scholar Arjun Appadurai argues that the economic collapse of 2008-while indeed spurred on by greed, ignorance, weak regulation, and irresponsible risk-taking-was, ultimately, a failure of language. To prove this sophisticated point, he takes us into the world of derivative finance, which has become the core of contemporary trading and the primary target of blame for the collapse and all our subsequent woes. With incisive argumentation, he analyzes this challengingly technical world, drawing on thinkers such as...

Versagen
ISBN: 9783803137302 / Miękka / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Technologie ist immer effektiv, der Zugang zu Informationen unbegrenzt, und Banken sind »too big to fail« - dieser Mythos des Kapitalismus ist so wirkmächtig wie falsch. Das Finanzsystem hat sich von seiner globalen, mit Steuern notdürftig gekitteten Krise nie erholt. Geld ist nichts mehr wert, unsere Abhängigkeit von Wall Street und Silicon Valley verstärkt sich, je schlechter das System funktioniert. Und in der Gig Economy von Uber bis Airbnb verschärft sich der Druck: Jeder Erfolg wird überwacht, jedes Scheitern geahndet. Bei technischen Geräten hingegen ist das Versagen...
