In this searing and insightful critique, Adrienne Buller examines the fatal biases that have shaped the response of our governing institutions to climate and environmental breakdown, and asks: are the 'solutions' being proposed really solutions? Tracing the intricate connections between financial power, economic injustice and ecological crisis, she exposes the myopic economism and market-centric thinking presently undermining a future where all life can flourish.

Die Autorinnen kritisieren ein Wirtschaftssystem, das den »unbezahlten Sektor« der Care-Arbeit ignoriert, und eine Ökonomie, die sich noch immer um die Frage dreht, was zahlungskräftige Leute sich leisten können, statt das Sich-Kümmern um Hausarbeit, Kindererziehung, Pflege, Freundschaften, um soziales und globales Miteinander in den Vordergrund zu rücken.

Der Kurs richtet sich an Interessierte, die einen Überblick über gängige Modellierungsansätze in der Makroökonomik erhalten wollen. Dabei habe ich versucht, Ansätze aus unterschiedlichen Paradigmen zu berücksichtigen, notwendigerweise auf Kosten einer gewissen Tiefe bei den einzelnen Modellierungsframeworks. Der Kurs setzt ein gewisses mathematisches Grundverständnis voraus, sollte aber für fortgeschrittene Bachelor-Studierende der Ökonomik und Master-Studierende von interdisziplinären Studienprogrammen gut geeignet sein. Die Themenauswahl ist natürlich notwendigerweise selektiv. Der erste, größere Abschnitt diskutiert Modelle für wirtschaftlichen Wandel in der langen Frist (Wachstumsmodelle). Der zweite, kürzere Abschnitte behandelt dann Modelle, welche versuchen eine langfristige mit einer kurzfristigen Perspektive zu verbinden.

Makroökonomische Modelle - Ein multiparadigmatischer Überblick
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.

The Economics and Geopolitics of Russia Selling Yuan and Gold Reserves It is important for students to understand the workings of international and public finance and that the goal of governments and politicians is not always economic efficiency when making financial decisions. Normative goals other than efficiency can motivate economic decisions. A good economist is able to recognise, clearly name and take into account the values and goals behind economic behaviour, when making sense of the world.

Christoph Freydorf geht der Frage nach, ob Marktwirtschaft ohne das Privateigentum an natürlichen Ressourcen funktionieren kann. Zunächst präsentiert er gängige Argumentationslinien in der Ökonomie, die sich für die Notwendigkeit von Privateigentum an Ressourcen aussprechen, insbesondere Leistungsgerechtigkeit und effizienter Nutzung. Anschließend präsentiert Freydorf Kritik an diesen Argumente und stellt eine ordnungspolitische Regulierung vor, die diese Kritik aufnimmt: die Ausgabe von und den Handel mit Ressourcenzertifikaten.
