Bourgeois Equality: How Ideas, Not Capital or Institutions, Enriched the World
ISBN: 9780226527932 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 768 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. There's little doubt that most humans today are better off than their forebears. Stunningly so, the economist and historian Deirdre McCloskey argues in the concluding volume of her trilogy celebrating the oft-derided virtues of the bourgeoisie. The poorest of humanity, McCloskey shows, will soon be joining the comparative riches of Japan and Sweden and Botswana. Why? Most economists--from Adam Smith and Karl Marx to Thomas Piketty--say the Great Enrichment since 1800 came from accumulated capital. McCloskey disagrees, fiercely. "Our riches," she argues, "were made not by piling brick on...

Bourgeois Dignity: Why Economics Can't Explain the Modern World
ISBN: 9780226556741 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 592 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The big economic story of our times is not the Great Recession. It is how China and India began to embrace neoliberal ideas of economics and attributed a sense of dignity and liberty to the bourgeoisie they had denied for so long. The result was an explosion in economic growth and proof that economic change depends less on foreign trade, investment, or material causes, and a whole lot more on ideas and what people believe.

The Bourgeois Virtues: Ethics for an Age of Commerce
ISBN: 9780226556642 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 634 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For a century and a half, the artists and intellectuals of Europe have scorned the bourgeoisie. And for a millennium and a half, the philosophers and theologians of Europe have scorned the marketplace. The bourgeois life, capitalism, Mencken's "booboisie" and David Brooks's "bobos"-all have been, and still are, framed as being responsible for everything from financial to moral poverty, world wars, and spiritual desuetude. Countering these centuries of assumptions and unexamined thinking is Deirdre McCloskey's The Bourgeois Virtues, a magnum opus that offers a radical view: capitalism...

ISBN: 9788365086150 / Polski / Twarda / 2017 / 656 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. "Burżuazyjna godność. Dlaczego ekonomia nie potrafi wyjaśnić współczesnego świata?" Deirdre Nansen McCloskey jest najlepszym przedstawieniem kontrowersji związanych z początkami rewolucji przemysłowej. Ekonomiści od kilkudziesięciu lat wysuwają coraz to nowe hipotezy mające tłumaczyć, dlaczego to właśnie w Wielkiej Brytanii pod koniec XVIII wieku nastąpił nagły wzrost bogactwa.
McCloskey uczestniczyła aktywnie w tych badaniach od kilkudziesięciu lat i z czasem zdała sobie sprawę, że większość hipotez ekonomistów nie jest w stanie wytłumaczyć wzrostu tak...
