The Interaction of Monetary Policy and Wage Bargaining in the European Monetary Union: Lessons from the Endogenous Money Approach
ISBN: 9781349520800 / Angielski / Miękka / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Sebastian Dullien gives a novel explanation for unemployment and inflation in the Euro-Zone.

Co-operation between both actors is necessary for high employment and low inflation. The current institutional set-up is found to be unable to assure cooperation.

The Politics of Regulation: Privatized Utilities in Britain
ISBN: 9781349425365 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The privatization of the utilities by the Conservative governments of the 1980s and 1990s was a major shift in public policy. It was also a huge experiment in reinventing government, since the newly privatized companies were regulated by high-profile individuals. Frequently criticized and often controversial, the regulators wield enormous power over a large sector of the British economy.

Market or Government Failures?: An Asian Perspective
ISBN: 9781349398096 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Choosing between government and market is not a very helpful exercise since both are necessary. This book argues that it is misplaced to dichotomise between government and market failures. Too much attention is generally placed on government failures and not enough on private corporate failures. Failures occur in both public and private corporate spheres. They may be due to lapses in implementation of policies and programmes. Lack of enforcement in developing countries occurs either because rules and norms do not exist or they are poorly enforced. Emphasis on implementation problems...
