Making Sense of Smoot-Hawley: Technology and Tariffs
ISBN: 9780595378883 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Three-quarters of a century after its enactment, the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act remains an enigma. Either U.S. policymakers were grossly mistaken or we have missed something. Could there have been a method to their apparent madness? Could the upward tariff revision have made sense, however little? This book, based on the author's earlier work on Mass Production and the Great Depression, offers an alternative interpretation of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930, namely as a response on the part of U.S. policymakers to the problem of underincome, itself the result of the massive technology shock...

Mass Production, the Stock Market Crash, and the Great Depression: The Macroeconomics of Electrification
ISBN: 9780595323340 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Economists and historians view the events of the 1920s, the stock market boom and crash, the Great Depression and the New Deal, as being largely independent. This work presents an integrated, empirically-consistent view of this important period arguing that all of these events can be traced back to a paradigm technology shock, namely the electrification of U.S. industry from 1910 to 1926. The author goes from electrification through the stock market boom to the tariffs of the late 20s to the stock market crash and depression followed by the National Industrial Recovery Act in 1933.

Energy and Organization
ISBN: 9781435717176 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Provides an alternative approach to modeling material processes in economics. Argues that material wealth (GDP) is an increasing function of two universal factor inputs, namely broadly-defined energy and broadly-defined organization. Uses the results to examine the productivity slowdown, the ICT revolution and the phenomenon of outsourcing. The latter is attributed to a desire on the part of firms/shareholders to capture a greater share of the relevant energy rents.

How the Republicans Caused the Stock Market Crash of 1929: GPT's, Failed Transitions, and Commercial Policy
ISBN: 9780595379088 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This book presents an alternative view of the Stock Market Boom and Crash of 1929 as having resulted from government intervention, specifically from a case of flawed government policy in the form of the Republican party's 1928 election promise of an upward tariff revision―the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Bill. As such, the stock market in particular and the market mechanism in general were not to blame, government was. Where the market was to blame, however, was in its reaction to the massive technology shock that was electric power-based extremely-high-throughput, continuous-flow mass...

World Trade: A Network Approach

Beaudreau provides a new approach to world trade, one that combines the archaeological and historical record with recent developments in the theory of networks, the result of which is a convincing account of trading patterns, past, present, and undoubtedly, into the future.
For the first time, trade theory is no longer at odds with the historical record. Likewise, for the first time, trade policy is no longer at odds with the historical record.

Energy Rents: A Scientific Theory of Income Distribution
ISBN: 9780595372003 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The concept of energy rents was first introduced in 1998 (Energy and Organization, Growth and Distribution Reexamined), when it was used to analyze income distribution in U.S. manufacturing in the post-WWII period. It was argued that rents resulting from the growing use of electric power in manufacturing were shared by the owners of labor and capital in the form of higher wages and profits. In this work, the energy rents approach to income distribution is examined in greater detail-historically, theoretically, and empirically. The result is a compelling theory of income distribution, one that...

Energy and Organization: Growth and Distribution Reexamined
ISBN: 9780313305801 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the aftermath of the stock market crash, Irving Fisher pointed to the electrification of the U.S. industry as one of the underlying causes of the stock market boom. Earlier, in 1927, Brookings Institution economists had lamented the scant attention energy had received from economists. Today, some 60 years later, power remains the forgotten factor input. In this book, the author incorporates energy into the corpus of economic analysis. Unlike previous attempts, which were mostly theoretical, this work generates testable predictions. The result is a model of production based on the two...

The National Industrial Recovery Act Redux: Technology and Transitions
ISBN: 9780595379026 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In this book, recent advances in the field of game theory, specifically in the area of coordination games (theory and policy) are used to reexamine one of the most far-reaching, yet overlooked pieces of legislation in U.S. economic history, namely the National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933. While dismissed by most as misconceived, misguided, and mistaken, not to mention unconstitutional and anti-American, recent findings in the field of macroeconomic coordination open the door to a new interpretation, one that is more in keeping with the original objectives of the Roosevelt administration.
