What are the grand dynamics that drive the accumulation and distribution of capital? Questions about the long-term evolution of inequality, the concentration of wealth, and the prospects for economic growth lie at the heart of political economy. But satisfactory answers have been hard to find for lack of adequate data and clear guiding theories.

Governments today in both Europe and the United States have succeeded in casting government spending as reckless wastefulness that has made the economy worse. In contrast, they have advanced a policy of draconian budget cuts - austerity - to solve the financial crisis. We are told that we have all lived beyond our means and now need to tighten our belts. This view conveniently forgets where all that debt came from. Not from an orgy of government spending, but as the direct result of bailing out, recapitalizing, and adding liquidity to the broken banking system.

Many blame today's economic inequality, stagnation, and political instability on the free market. The solution is to rein in the market, right? Radical Markets turns this thinking - and pretty much all conventional thinking about markets, both for and against - on its head. The book reveals bold new ways to organize markets for the good of everyone.

The subprime mortgage crisis has already wreaked havoc on the lives of millions of people, and now it threatens to derail the U.S. economy and economies around the world. In this trenchant book, best-selling economist Robert Shiller reveals the origins of this crisis and puts forward bold measures to solve it.

Che cos’hanno in comune una rivolta di pescatori corsi in un mare colorato di rosso, un volantino piegato in quattro trovato nella tasca di una giacca, un circuito elettrico nascosto da un controsoffitto, una telefonata nel cuore della notte e un testo poetico usato nel posto sbagliato? L’inizio di una storia. O di più storie, individuali e collettive, ma sempre con due protagonisti in comune: l’ex magistrato Gian Carlo Caselli e l’Italia.

The global financial crisis has made it painfully clear that powerful psychological forces are imperiling the wealth of nations today. From blind faith in ever-rising housing prices to plummeting confidence in capital markets, "animal spirits" are driving financial events worldwide.

In The Great Divide, Joseph E. Stiglitz expands on the diagnosis he offered in his best-selling book The Price of Inequality and suggests ways to counter America's growing problem. With his signature blend of clarity and passion, Stiglitz argues that inequality is a choice - the cumulative result of unjust policies and misguided priorities.

What was a Buddhist monk doing at the 2014 World Economic Forum in Davos lecturing the world's leaders on mindfulness? Why do many successful corporations have a chief happiness officer? What can the chemical composition of your brain tell a potential employer about you? In the past decade, governments and corporations have become increasingly interested in measuring the way people feel: the Happiness index, Gross National Happiness, well-being and positive psychology have come to dominate the way we live our lives.

Alla fine degli anni Sessanta, Italia, Francia, Germania occidentale e Gran Bretagna – Paesi già colpiti dal terrorismo interno – si trovarono a far fronte a una nuova minaccia: le organizzazioni armate, nate in Medio Oriente, che internazionalizzarono la propria lotta, esportando il terrorismo in Europa. Raggiunsero il loro obiettivo? Generarono il caos internazionale? O invece i Paesi europei riuscirono, almeno temporaneamente, a disarmare i terroristi, includendoli nel sistema delle relazioni internazionali?

Dai tempi delle guerre persiane, Oriente e Occidente sono fratelli coltelli, amici e nemici, sogno e incubo. "L’Oriente è l’Oriente, l’Occidente è l’Occidente: e nessuno potrà mai accordarli", dichiara Rudyard Kipling al tempo della fondazione dell’impero britannico d’India. Sulla base dei troppi malintesi generati dal loro confronto sono emersi anche "ismi" ideologici, tanto accaniti tra loro quanto ambigui: orientalismo e occidentalismo, avvolti nel dilatare delle loro contraddizioni. Già Oswald Spengler aveva decretato il "tramonto dell’Occidente".

Is America fated to decline as a great power? Can it recover? With absorbing insight and fresh perspective, foreign policy expert Andrew Imbrie provides a road map for bolstering American leadership in an era of turbulence abroad and deepening polarization at home. This is a book about choices: the tough policy trade-offs that political leaders need to make to reinvigorate American money, might, and clout. In the conventional telling, the United States is either destined for continued dominance or doomed to irreversible decline.

Per alcuni porterebbe alla semplificazione del sistema tributario e a una pressione fiscale meno opprimente per chi lavora, favorendo la crescita economica e contrastando l'evasione. Per altri, che la identificano con una bassa pressione fiscale, la flat tax sarebbe una riforma a vantaggio dei più ricchi che costringerebbe lo Stato a tagliare la spesa sociale. L'audiolibro illustra con chiarezza caratteristiche e posta in gioco della flat tax: vantaggi e limiti, esperienze in altri paesi, effetti possibili delle proposte avanzate negli ultimi anni in Italia.

In this ground-breaking book, Ben Ramalingam shows that the linear, mechanistic models and assumptions on which foreign aid is built would be more at home in early-20th-century factory floors than in the dynamic, complex world we face today. All around us, we can see the costs and limitations of dealing economies and societies as if they are analogous to machines. The reality is that such social systems have far more in common with ecosystems: They are complex, dynamic, diverse, and unpredictable.

Natural resources empower the world's most coercive men. Autocrats like Putin and the Saudis spend oil money on weapons and repression. ISIS and Congo's militias spend resource money on atrocities and ammunition. For decades resource-fueled authoritarians and extremists have forced endless crises on the West - and the ultimate source of their resource money is us, paying at the gas station and the mall.

In this sharp, masterfully argued book, Dani Rodrik, a leading critic from within, takes a close look at economics to examine when it falls short and when it works, to give a surprisingly upbeat account of the discipline. Drawing on the history of the field and his deep experience as a practitioner, Rodrik argues that economics can be a powerful tool that improves the world - but only when economists abandon universal theories and focus on getting the context right.
