Rethinking Economics
Finance at the Threshold offers a unique perspective from an English economic and monetary historian. In it the author asks: Why did the banks stop lending to one another, and why now? Was it merely a matter of over-loose credit due to the relaxation of traditional prudence, or did global finance find itself at its limits?
Finance at the Threshold
This book provides a new methodological approach to money and macroeconomics. Realizing that the abstract equilibrium models lacked descriptions of fundamental issues of a modern monetary economy, the focus of this book lies on the (stylized) balance sheets of the main actors. Money, after all, is born on the balance sheets of the central bank or commercial bank.

This book highlights the political economy of wealth and income inequality in Latin America. The author segments his analysis to separately evaluate the economic, social, and political costs of inequality building on country case studies.

Neues ökonomisches Denken für eine klimaverträgliche Handelsordnung und Wirtschaft
Die scheinbare Eindeutigkeit der wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Analyse von Maßnahmen gaukelt eine Berechenbarkeit vor, die nichts mit der Realität zu tun hat. Vielmehr braucht es gerade in der Klimapolitik einen Ansatz, der flexibel reagieren kann und gleichzeitig die Entwicklung neuer innovativer Lösungen befördert: das sogenannte agile Politikdesign.
