Africa Unchained: The Blueprint for Africa's Future
ISBN: 9781403973863 / Angielski / Miękka / 510 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Africa Unchained, George Ayittey takes a controversial look at Africa's future and makes a number of daring suggestions. Looking at how Africa can modernize, build, and improve their indigenous institutions which have been castigated by African leaders as 'backward and primitive', Ayittey argues that Africa should build and expand upon these traditions of free markets and free trade. Asking why the poorest Africans haven't been able to prosper in the Twenty-first-century, Ayittey makes the answer obvious: their economic freedom was snatched from them. War and conflict replaced peace and...

New Trends in Macroeconomics
ISBN: 9783540214489 / Angielski / Twarda / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. That macroeconomic theory and macroeconometrics are, in the near future and more than ever, indispensable tools in the study of economics is no longer a very cont- versial statement. It is now generally agreed that economic theory, combined with historical, statistical and mathematical methods are necessary at the theoretical level, to formulate problems precisely, to draw conclusions from postulates and to gain - sight into workings of complicated processes, and at the applied level, to measure variables, to estimate parameters and to organise the elaborate calculations involved in reaching...

The New Economy and Economic Growth in Europe and the Us
ISBN: 9783540431794 / Angielski / Twarda / 353 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The strong productivity growth of the US and Scandinavian countries in Europe in the 1990s has raised the question whether the ICT sector - information and com munication technology (that is computers plus telecommunications plus digital services)-is the new driving engine of high growth in leading OECD countries. Judging by the empirical evidence for the US, including a new study by McKinsey which gives mixed evidence, it is still too early to clearly dismiss Robert G. Gordon's hypothesis that the acceleration of US output growth is (dis regarding quality problems of price measurement)...

The Super-Rich: The Unjust New World of Global Capitalism
ISBN: 9780333764282 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In The Super-Rich, Stephen Haseler describes the dangerous growing tensions caused throughout the West by the triumphant new global capitalism. In a book for students of politics, economics and sociology, and the general reader, he outlines how a new global super-rich caste has emerged during a period in which the traditional 'middle-class' is facing serious insecurity and income loss. He argues that this new super-rich capitalism, if not balanced by a renewal of the state and community, will not only destroy politics and governance, but democracy as well, and he shows exactly how the...

The Relevance of Keynesian Economic Policies Today
ISBN: 9780333668313 / Angielski / Twarda / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What can Keynesian economics mean in the 21st century? Do globalisation, inflationary pressures and supply-side constraints make managing demand in a domestic economy impossible? Or could its use to tackle unemployment be put back on the political agenda? These essays examine the potential relevance of Keynesian policies for Europe, America, the developing world and the global economy. There is no common definition, but Keynesianism is throughout seen as more than demand management, with policy proposals to promote investment, strengthen the supply-side and reduce uncertainty.

Farm Wars
ISBN: 9780333665992 / Angielski / Twarda / 235 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Farm War of the early 1980s was rooted in the political economy of agriculture, but it was a crisis for the international trading system. The war was evident in disruptions on the farm and in world markets, in conflicts among major governments, and in disagreements in international organizations. Wolfe shows how and why battles over agricultural protectionism were largely resolved through the Uruguay Round of GATT negotiations, demonstrating that the global economy is not self-regulating: it needs institutions if it is to be stable.

This book describes the complex of economic processes which sustains inflationary pressure in nations with severe inflation problems.

Since the end of the Cold War capitalism has become the dominant form of economic and political organization across the globe. This does not mean, however, that all forms of capitalism are the same.

Cambridge Monetary Thought
ISBN: 9780333432501 / Angielski / Twarda / 227 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The primary aim of the book is to provide a critical evaluation of the origin and development of the Cambridge saving-investment analysis. This work disentangles painstakingly from a maze of sometimes contradictory, obscure and often neglected contributions, the line which leads from Marshall's interest theory to Keynes's income adjustment process. In particular, it charts, for the first time, the various steps taken by this line of inquiry in the writings of Pigou, Hawtrey, Robertson, Lavington and Keynes.
