A New Democracy : Alternatives to a Bankrupt World Order
ISBN: 9781856499743 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "There is no alternative" to the prevailing global economic system has become the watchword of our times. Yet more and more people agree with Harry Shutt that this way lacks vision for the future of humanity, is empty of social responsibility and environmental care, and will not deliver a stable economy or secure political future. He shows why the late 20th century's version of laisser-faire capitalism is inherently unstable and heading for breakdown. And why the neo-imperial international political order, dominated by the US, is likely to follow suit. Above all, he gives us practical ideas...

Locating Capitalism in Time and Space: Global Restructurings, Politics, and Identity
ISBN: 9780804742306 / Angielski / Twarda / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The last several decades have witnessed major restructurings--economic, political, and cultural--in the international arena. The depth and scope of these changes have prompted anthropologists to rethink many of their most basic assumptions, to problematize issues that have long gone unexamined, and to grapple with new and unique problems. Doing so has left the discipline profoundly unsettled. Existing standards of scholarship and research methodologies have come under attack, key conceptual categories have been called into question, and truths once considered secure have been subjected to...

Libertarian War on Poverty: Repairing the Ladder of Upward Mobility
ISBN: 9781470158484 / Angielski / Miękka / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Libertarian War on Poverty -- Repairing the Ladder of Upward Mobility by Daniel K. Robin In Deuteronomy, God voices the hope that there may be no more poor while paradoxically stating that the poor will never cease from the land. The answer to this biblical riddle is: poverty is transitory. Most people move in and out of poverty, experiencing financial peaks and valleys much like every other facet of life. Getting out of poverty is never easy. The impediments created by our own laws make the process vastly more difficult. We must have respect for the dignity of each individual to make the...

Handbook on Contemporary Austrian Economics
ISBN: 9781849809511 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Austrian school of economics was founded in 1871 with the publication of Carl Menger's Principles of Economics. In his book, Menger argued that economic analysis is universally applicable and that the appropriate unit of analysis is man and his choices. These choices, he wrote, are determined by individual subjective preferences and the margin on which decisions are made. The logic of choice, he believed, is the essential building block to the development of a universally valid economic theory. The home of the field moved first to Britain and then on to the US, and at present a diverse...

South of the Crisis: A Latin American Perspective on the Late Capitalist World
ISBN: 9780857285683 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 'South of the Crisis' examines why and how global capitalism has entered a phase of unsustainable crises of accumulation and legitimacy, and looks at various solutions to such crises, from mild reform to radical overhaul. The book then examines the various scenarios from a Latin American perspective, arguing that the continent is a 'garden of forking paths' rather than a homogeneous area, and that different countries are likely to try diverse experiments in adapting to the crisis - with significantly different outcomes. One common challenge faced by all Latin American...

The 1997 Symposium of the Egon-Sohmen-Foundation, which gave rise to this book, took place in the United States, on the East Coast between New Y C)rk and New Haven, more precisely in Stamford (Conn.). The original choice had been a place close to Yale University, where Egon Sohmen taught economics from 1958 to 1960, subsequent to his period at MIT. But the hotel in New Haven was closed down by a new owner-to pass through a process of creative destruction. Change of ownership-on a large scale and as a transition from public to private hands-had been the topic of the preceding Egon...

The Changing Economic Geography of Globalization
ISBN: 9780415646482 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The process of globalization has had profound, often destabilizing, effects on space, at all levels (i.e. local, regional, national, international). This revealing book analyzes, both theoretically and empirically, the effects of globalization over space. It considers, through a dialogue among different paradigms, the ways in which space has become more important in the global economy. Globalization has been advocated as a way of shrinking time and space which will lead to a homogenized global market; a suggestion challenged in differing ways and with a variety of approaches by all the...

Hegel and Capitalism
ISBN: 9781438458762 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Bringing together scholars from varying perspectives, this book examines the value of Hegel's thought for understanding and assessing capitalism, both as encountered by Hegel himself and in forms it takes today. The contributors consider Hegel's complex and multifaceted appraisal of modern market societies, which he understands variously as a condition for a proper account of individual freedom, the framework for a productive account of social interdependency, and the breeding ground for a host of social pathologies concerning individual consumption, labor conditions, and disparities in...

The Rediscovery of Classical Economics: Adaptation, Complexity and Growth
ISBN: 9781781951965 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. David Simpson skilfully argues that a market economy can be best understood as a human complex system, a perspective that represents a continuation of the classical tradition in economic thought. In the classical tradition, growth rather than allocative efficiency is the principal object of enquiry, economic phenomena are recognised to be elements of processes rather than structures, and change is evolutionary.
