Modern mission theory is guided largely by the three self paradigm that suggests indigenous churches can only be healthy if they are self-governing, self-propagating, and self-supporting. Consequently, Western missionaries, their churches, and their agencies have been increasingly indisposed to giving generously. We must rethink the interplay of dollars dependency and what it means to do the right thing with our money as we pursue twenty-first century missions.

Balance of payments stability is of paramount importance for developing countries, both to secure the value of their domestic currencies as well as reliable foreign currency inflows. But how is that stability ensured and how important is the growth of exports for stability?

The Handbook of Pluralist Economics Education
Despite some diversification modern economics still attracts a great deal of criticism. This is largely due to highly unrealistic assumptions underpinning economic theory, explanatory failure, poor policy framing, and a dubious focus on prediction. Many argue that flaws continue to owe much of their shortcomings to neoclassical economics.
What is Neoclassical Economics?

Three dominant forces worldwide are driving change today in our financial markets: competition, technology and regulation. But their collective impact in reshaping the markets, though they may be viewed individually as desirable or well-intentioned, is producing challenging results that are difficult to predict, hard to control and not easy to understand.
Rethinking Regulatory Structure
Während die Pluralismus-Debatte in den Wirtschaftswissenschaften an Fahrt aufgenommen hat, gibt es seit einigen Jahren vermehrt Forschung zur Vielfalt der wirtschaftlichen bzw. wirtschaftspolitischen Berichterstattung. Die Studie „Qualifiziert für die Zukunft? Zur Pluralität der wirtschaftsjournalistischen Ausbildung in Deutschland“ hat diese Debatten erstmals zusammengeführt und die Frage aufgeworfen: Wie ökonomisch plural und reflexiv werden angehende Wirtschaftsjournalist:innen ausgebildet? Kernergebnis: Vor allem ökonomische Grundlagenveranstaltungen sind überwiegend orthodox ausgerichtet und prägen potenziell nicht nur Ökonomie-Studierende, sondern auch zukünftige Journalist:innen – und damit zentrale mediale „Gatekeeper“ für ökonomische Theorien und Perspektiven.
Pluralismus-Debatte meets Wirtschaftsjournalismus
Preisdiskriminierung (auch Preisdifferenzierung) beschreibt das Anbieten homogener Produkte zu unterschiedlichen Preisen. Vorraussetzung ist das Vorhandensein eines unvollkommenen Marktes, meist ist diese Art der Preispolitik nur für Unternehmen mit Monopolstellung möglich.
Preisdiskriminierung
Viele glauben: Die Wirtschaft funktioniert nach den Gesetzen der Logik. Doch das Gegenteil ist der Fall. Die Wirtschaft wird erschüttert von immer neuen Krisen, ihre Akteure – Notenbanker, Manager, Politiker – sind oft getrieben von Wahnvorstellungen und Persönlichkeitsstörungen.
Lilith und die Dämonen des Kapitals
Experimental economists are leaving the reservation. They are recruiting subjects in the field rather than in the classroom, using field goods rather than induced valuations, and using field context rather than abstract terminology in instructions.
Field Experiments in Economics
Foreign exploitation of economic crises in the developing world has been a central claim of neoliberal critics. This important and recurring international theme is the subject of closer scrutiny in this new collection, where contributors offer competing interpretations of the interaction between international and domestic forces after crises.
Power and Politics after Financial Crises
This book is intended as a textbook for a course in behavioural economics for advanced undergraduate and graduate students who have already learned basic economics. The book will also be useful for introducing behavioural economics to researchers. Unlike some general audience books that discuss behavioural economics, this book does not take the position of negating traditional economics completely.

Der Zinsarbitrage (engl. interest arbitrage) liegt das Ausnutzen von Zinsdifferenzen zwischen Inland und Ausland als primäres Ziel zugrunde. Im Gegensatz zu anderen internationalen Kapitalbewegungen werden bei der Zinsarbitrage Risikoüberlegungen und Wechselkurserwartungen nahezu außer Acht gelassen.
Zinsarbitrage
Ein reines Monopol (Mono - griech. monos = „allein“, „einzig“; Pol - polein = „verkaufen“) liegt immer dann vor, wenn viele Nachfrager (z.B. private Haushalte) genau nur einen einzigen Anbieter (z.B. Unternehmen) eines bestimmten Gutes bzw. einer bestimmten Leistung zur Auswahl haben, ohne Wahl auf ein Substitut (Ersetzung des Gutes bzw. der Leistung mit einer anderen).
Reines Monopol
Written by the Nobel Prize winners in Economics Robert Shiller and George Akerlof, this book shows how deception and manipulation play a big role in the economic behavior of individuals, as well as showing how the assumption of "perfect information" is far away from the truth. Through both quantitative data and stories of how to reduce this noxious phenomenon, the authors paint a pretty different picture of how markets really works in a hyper-communicative scenario like nowadays.
Phishing for Phools
Those who control the world’s commanding economic heights, buttressed by the theories of mainstream economists, presume that capitalism is a self-contained and self-generating system.
Capital and Imperialism
What’s inflation? Why is it relevant? And is there an agreed theory about its roots and causes, or is it a contentious concept? That’s what this text is all about: We define what inflation actually means before we delve into the theoretical debate with an interdisciplinary and pluralist approach: What gives rise to it, what factors might influence it, and, consequently, what might be done about it?
Inflation in economic theory

Mit Wachstumsunabhängigkeit zur nachhaltigen Digitalisierung
Die dominante Ökonomie fordert eine Bepreisung der Umwelt – spielt aber de facto beim Klimaschutz eine bremsende Rolle. Ihre Vorstellungen von „dem Markt“ sind zur direkten Bedrohung der Menschheit geworden.
Der Markt und das Klima
The book is a collection of 51 texts by different scholars and activists, who each adds a dimension/perspective to the topics of degrowth and societal transformation. A societal transformation towards a degrowth society is dependent on a lot of ideas coming together and creating change from various starting points within a society. Therefore, the authors are quite diverse and their contributions vary from being philosophical, natural science based, economic, sociological and so forth. Some are specfiically focused on a concept and others are a more broad critique of e.g., capitalism or growth.

Forderungen nach einer beschleunigten Dekarbonisierung werden häufig mit dem Verweis auf den Emissionshandel abgewehrt. Dabei wäre es vielmehr notwendig, dieses Instrument selbst zu hinterfragen und neu zu denken
Warum gute Klimapolitik über den Emissionshandel hinausgehen muss
An vielen Orten auf der Welt erleben wir, wie sich das Gefühl von Machtlosigkeit und sozialer Entfremdung breit macht – wirtschaftlicher und sozialer Wohlstand sind nicht mehr miteinander im Einklang, sie sind entkoppelt. Daher braucht es ein neues Verständnis von Wohlstand.
Wie sich echter Wohlstand messen lässt
