Governing the Market: Economic Theory and the Role of Government in East Asian Industrialization
ISBN: 9780691117294 / Angielski / Miękka / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Published originally in 1990 to critical acclaim, Robert Wade's Governing the Market quickly established itself as a standard in contemporary political economy. In it, Wade challenged claims both of those who saw the East Asian story as a vindication of free market principles and of those who attributed the success of Taiwan and other countries to government intervention. Instead, Wade turned attention to the way allocation decisions were divided between markets and public administration and the synergy between them. Now, in a new introduction to this paperback edition, Wade reviews...

Organizing America: Wealth, Power, and the Origins of Corporate Capitalism
ISBN: 9780691123158 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. American society today is shaped not nearly as much by vast open spaces as it is by vast, bureaucratic organizations. Over half the working population toils away at enterprises with 500 or more employees--up from zero percent in 1800. Is this institutional immensity the logical outcome of technological forces in an all-efficient market, as some have argued? In this book, the first organizational history of nineteenth-century America, Yale sociologist Charles Perrow says no. He shows that there was nothing inevitable about the surge in corporate size and power by century's end. Critics...

The Judas Economy
ISBN: 9780738202020 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Bill Wolman, "Business Week" chief economist and Anne Colamosca say what our business and government leaders are unwilling to admit, but what most workers know in their gut: in the global economy, big money calls the shots and workers - white-collar professionals as well as blue-collar - are increasingly expendable. Drawing on history and their knowledge of how the world economy works, the authors demonstrate why downsizing will continue whether or not it makes America more competitive.

Markets and Power : The 21st Century Command Economy
ISBN: 9780765605009 / Angielski / Twarda / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. By ignoring questions about power relations in markets, mainstream, neo-classically oriented economists conclude that there are no significant power structures operating in market systems. This book argues, to the contrary, that there are fundamental and systemic power structures -- monopoly, access to information or finance, employer power, etc. -- at work in market economies, which function to allocate the most important productive resources and capital investments, just as in state-controlled command economies. As an example, they show how the biggest firms at the hubs of financial...

ISBN: 9780791412664 / Angielski / Miękka / 349 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The market economy attends well to some dimensions of human life and does not even see others.

The market registers the costs and benefits to transactors acting as social atoms but is impervious to the costs of tearing apart the larger wholes--families, communities, the biosphere--that are vital to the quality of our lives. In The Illusion of Choice, Andrew Bard Schmookler...
