As the Covid-19 fueled economic downturn begins to intensify this winter, an extended study of the Italian cooperative sector’s historical resilience in times of crisis can serve as a learning experience for other countries seeking to create policies that foster more stable economies, with job security, care for marginalized communities and adequate counter-cyclical policies. Particularly, the Italian cooperative sector’s contributions to three aspects should be noted in closing. Firstly, the innovative phenomenon of cooperative enterprises has contributed to social inclusion of immigrant communities, the activation of youth, the unemployed and people with disabilities, a true compensation for both a market and state failure. Secondly, they have contributed to a reduction in income and wealth inequalities at a time when the issue of inequality is of global significance. Thirdly, the Italian cooperative movement has helped local communities revitalize in the face of demographic shifts and rendered them more resilient to the ravages of globalization. Each of these in their own right is a remarkable achievement.

This book is an original, systematic, and radical attempt at decolonizing critical theory.

Manuela Mosca on Giandomenica Becchio, A History of Feminist and Gender Economics
By conducting a discourse analysis (SKAD) in the field of academic economics textbooks, this paper aims at reconstructing frames and identity options offered to undergraduate students relating to the questions ‘Why study economics?’ and ‘Who do I become by studying economics?’. The analysis showed three major frames and respective identity offerings, all of which are contextualized theoretically, with prominent reference to the Foucauldian reflection of the science of Political Economy. Surprisingly, none of them encourages the student to think critically, as could have been expected in a pedagogical context. Taken together, economics textbooks appear as a “total structure of actions brought to bear upon possible action” (Foucault), therefore, as a genuine example of Foucauldian power structures.
The power of economic textbooks: A discourse analysis
Bedingungsloser Zugang zu den Gütern, die unser Leben möglich und schön machen – und das für alle: Das ist Öffentlicher Luxus! Vom öffentlichen Nahverkehr, der Autos überflüssig macht, zu einem öffentlichen Raum, in dem niemand ausgeschlossen wird oder sich vor der Polizei fürchten muss. Von sicherer Versorgung und guter Arbeit in Bildung und Gesundheit zu gutem und günstigem Wohnraum zu erneuerbarer Energie für alle. All das ist machbar!

Die kapitalistische Produktionsweise ist abhängig von einem Außen, das sie über das Hineinholen von Ressourcen und Auslagern von Kosten in Anspruch nimmt.

Unternehmen sind heute noch immer an engen und anspruchslosen Zielen ausgerichtet, die wenig mit den drängenden Realitäten unserer Welt zu tun haben. Frank Thun entwickelt einen Mix aus betriebswirtschaftlichen Prinzipien und einem neuen Verständnis für ökologische und gesellschaftliche Bedürfnisse - und liefert damit einen praktischen Leitfaden für nachhaltige Unternehmensführung.

The article pursues the two related questions of how economists pretend to know and why they want to know at all. It is argued that both the economic form of knowledge and the motivation of knowing have undergone a fundamental change during the course of the 20th century. The knowledge of important contemporary economic textbooks has little in common with an objective, decidedly scientifically motivated knowledge. Rather, their contents and forms follow a productive end, aiming at the subjectivity of their readers.

The module is designed to first present some of the main schools of thought from a historical and methodological perspective. Each week we explore and critically assess the main tenants of each school of thought. In the second part of the module we link history of economic thought and methodology to a specific and contemporary economic question. The second part allows you to engage with current economic issues with an awareness of methodology and methodological differences and with some knowledge of the history of economics.
History of Economic Thought
"Dunkler Kontinent", "Elendsgebiet" oder "Rohstofflager der Welt", noch immer denken und reden wir über Afrika in Stereotypen. Und noch immer ist der Maßstab, mit dem wir den Zustand und die Perspektive des Kontinents beurteilen, das Entwicklungsmodell des Westens, selbst wenn sich dieses weltweit als höchst zerstörerisch erwiesen hat.
Afrotopia
This volume focuses on the importance of the history of economic thought as an intellectual discipline. It counters the arguments of some contemporary economists who describe it as studying the mistakes of the past. However, all the great economists - Smith, Ricardo, Marx, Marshall, Keynes and even Milton Friedman - have drawn on the history of economics to find an appropriate pedigree for their own theoretical innovations.
The Historiography of Economics
