Can Economics save the Environment?
“Economics is the science which studies human behaviour as a relationship between ends and scarce means which have alternative uses1.” This is how Lionel Robbins came to define economics in the early 1930s and there is a good chance that many of you heard a variant of this definition in your first Economics 101 lecture.

Dass die momentane Krise der Finanzmärkte auch eine Krise der Wirtschaftswissenschaften sei, liest man derzeit immer wieder. Der Marktliberalismus und seine Theorie der "effizienten Märkte" seien gescheitert, es gebe in der ökonomischen Ortho doxie kein Instrumentarium, um "wilde Märkte" zu verstehen die offenkundig Realität sind.

Surviving the Future is a story drawn from the fertile ground of the late David Fleming's extraordinary 'Lean Logic: A Dictionary for the Future and How to Survive It'. That hardback consists of four hundred and four interlinked dictionary entries, inviting readers to choose their own path through its radical vision. Recognizing that Lean Logic's sheer size and unusual structure can be daunting, Fleming's long-time collaborator Shaun Chamberlin has selected and edited one of these potential narratives to create Surviving the Future. The content, rare insights, and uniquely enjoyable writing style remain Fleming's, but are presented here at a more accessible paperback-length and in conventional read-it-front-to-back format
Surviving the Future

The climate crisis is not primarily a problem of ‘believing science’ or individual ‘carbon footprints’ – it is a class problem rooted in who owns, controls and profits from material production. As such, it will take a class struggle to solve. In this ground breaking class analysis, Matthew T. Huber argues that the carbon-intensive capitalist class must be confronted for producing climate change.
Climate Change as Class War
How do we transform societal structures and pave the way to economic democracy?
Solidarity Economics
In this book, the author critically examines a number of socialist proposals that have been put forward since the end of the Cold War. It is shown that although these proposals have many merits, their inability effectively to incorporate the benefits of information technology into their models has limited their ability to solve the problem of socialist construction. The final section of the book proposes an entirely new model of socialist development, based on a "needs profile" that makes it possible to convert the needs of large numbers of people into data that can be used as a guide for resource allocation. This analysis makes it possible to rethink and carefully specify the conditions necessary for the abolition of capital and consequently the requirements for socialist revolution and, ultimately, communist society.
Information Technology and Socialist Construction
Angesichts der Ereignisstürme im gegenwärtigen Finanzgeschäft widmet sich Joseph Vogl den Wahrnehmungsweisen, Theorien und Problemlagen dessen, was man mit gutem Grund immer noch Kapitalismus nennen muss. Gerade Finanzmärkte gelten als das Marktgeschehen schlechthin: Unbelastet von den Beschwernissen der Produktion sind sie – für die herrschende ökonomische Doktrin – Schauplätze eines perfekten Wettbewerbs und idealer wirtschaftlicher Ausgleichprozesse: ein segensreiches Zusammenspiel von gewinnorientierten und also ebenso rationalen wie zuverlässigen Akteuren.
Das Gespenst des Kapitals
