An ideal type of a pluralistic book. Instead of arguing for one specific interpretation of a complex phenomenon, the authors present six different views on globalisation. Roberts and Lamp carefully balance the different perspectives, presenting the merits of each.
Six Faces of Globalization
The Currency of Politics explains why only through greater awareness of the historical limits of monetary politics can we begin to articulate more democratic conceptions of money.
The Currency of Politics
This book is an original, systematic, and radical attempt at decolonizing critical theory. Drawing on linguistic concepts from 16 languages from Asia, Africa, the Arab world, and South America, the essays in the volume explore the entailments of words while discussing their conceptual implications for the humanities and the social sciences everywhere.
Changing Theory
Identity politics is everywhere, polarising discourse from the campaign trail to the classroom and amplifying antagonisms in the media. But the compulsively referenced phrase bears little resemblance to the concept as first introduced by the radical Black feminist Combahee River Collective.
Elite Capture
Devine begins with an analysis of the theory and practice of capitalist planning, central planning and 'market socialism'. He argues that, while market socialism is currently favoured by many economists who reject both capitalism and the command planning of the Soviet model, it cannot fulfil the promises held out for it.
Democracy And Economic Planning
Financialization is one of the most innovative concepts to emerge in the field of political economy during the last three decades, although there is no agreement on what exactly it is. Profiting Without Producing by Costas Lapavitsas puts forth a distinctive view defining financialization in terms of the fundamental conduct of non-financial enterprises, banks and households.
Profiting Without Producing
Die kapitalistische Produktionsweise ist abhängig von einem Außen, das sie über das Hineinholen von Ressourcen und Auslagern von Kosten in Anspruch nimmt. Anna Saave unternimmt eine theoretisch versierte und elaborierte Analyse der komplexen Externalisierungs- und Einverleibungsprozesse des Kapitalismus.
Einverleiben und Externalisieren
Philipp Lenhard erzählt auf einer breiten Quellengrundlage die Geschichte der Personen, Netzwerke, Ideen und Orte, die das Institut für Sozialforschung geprägt haben und ihrerseits von ihm geformt wurden. So wird anschaulich greifbar, warum die Frankfurter Schule wie keine zweite die großen intellektuellen Debatten des 20. Jahrhunderts bestimmt hat

Gender, Development, and Globalization
As the world's energy system faces a period of unprecedented change, a global struggle over who controls the sector--and for what purposes--is intensifying. The question of "green capitalism" is now unavoidable, for capitalist planners and anti-capitalist struggles alike.
Sparking a Worldwide Energy Revolution

Great Economists Since Keynes
'Die Geschichte des ökonomischen Denkens' gibt einen umfassenden und dennoch detaillierten Überblick über die Entwicklung der ökonomischen Theorie.
Geschichte Ökonomischen Denkens
In a capitalist system, consumers, investors, and corporations orient their activities toward a future that contains opportunities and risks. How actors assess uncertainty is a problem that economists have tried to solve through general equilibrium and rational expectations theory. Powerful as these analytical tools are, they underestimate the future's unknowability by assuming that markets, in the aggregate, correctly forecast what is to come.
Imagined Futures
Goethes Wirken fällt in die Zeit einer Epochenschwelle, in der sich vieles von dem entwickelt hat, was heute global als Geld und Finanzökonomie die Lebenswelt der Menschen beherrscht. Zur Zeit der Ausarbeitung des Faust fand eine umfassende Diskussion über dasWesen des Geldes statt. Im Papiergeld, zentrales Thema im ersten Akt von Faust II, hat das Geld seine eigentümliche Sprache gefunden, mit der eine beschleunigte Umwälzung der ganzen Wirtschaft einherging.
Faust und die Sprache des Geldes
Making sense of economists and their world in a persuasive and entertaining style, Arjo Klamer, shows that economics is as much about how people interact as it is about the models, the mathematics, the econometrics, the theories and the ideas that come from the enormous aggregate of economics literature. Knowing and understanding economics requires both bookwork and mingling with other economists.
Speaking of Economics
How did the industrialized nations of North America and Europe come to be seen as the appropriate models for post-World War II societies in Asia, Africa, and Latin America? How did the postwar discourse on development actually create the so-called Third World? And what will happen when development ideology collapses? To answer these questions, Arturo Escobar shows how development policies became mechanisms of control that were just as pervasive and effective as their colonial counterparts.
Encountering Development
Dieser Band führt umfassend in die feministische Diskussion zur politischen Ökonomie ein. Internationale Wissenschaftlerinnen aus den Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaften stellen hier eine systematische Kritik von Theorien und Modellen des traditionellen ökonomischen Denkens dar. Ausgehend von zentralen ökonomischen Kategorien wie Geld, Tausch und Rationalität werden alternative Perspektiven auf Handels-, Sozial- und Wirtschaftspolitik entwickelt.
Gender and Economics
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
Geographical economics starts from the observation that economic activity is clearly not randomly distributed across space. This revised and updated introduction to geographical economics uses the modern tools of economic theory to explain the who, why and where of the location of economic activity. The text provides an integrated, first-principles introduction to geographical economics for advanced undergraduate students and first-year graduate students, and has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect important developments in the field, including new chapters on alternative core models and policy implications.
The New Introduction to Geographical Economics
Die besondere Stärke dieses Lehrbuches ist es, die unterschiedlichen theoretischen Grundlagen verschiedener wirtschaftswissenschaftlicher und wirtschaftspolitischer Positionen klar und verständlich darzustellen.
Volkswirtschaftslehre - Paradigmenorientierte Einführung in die Mikro- und Makroökonomie
Smith contends that there is no possible solution to our global ecological crisis within the framework of any conceivable capitalism. The only alternative to market-driven planetary collapse is to transition to a largely planned, mostly publicly-owned economy based on production for need, on democratic governance and rough socio-economic equality, and on contraction and convergence between the global North and South.
Green Capitalism
Now in its third edition, this textbook covers all of the standard topics taught in undergraduate International Economics courses. However, the book is unique in that it presents the key orthodox neoclassical models of international trade and investment, whilst supplementing them with a variety of heterodox approaches.

Feministische Ökonomie
Eine um ihre eigene Theorie- und Begriffsgeschichte bewusste, auf Gegenwart und Zukunft gerichtete Sozialökonomie hat als Wissenschaft jede Chance, die Erkenntnisschranken einer zunehmenden einzeldisziplinären Spezialisierung zu überwinden und durch innovative Lehrperspektiven Befähigungen zur Bewältigung der komplexen Anforderungen zu vermitteln, die aus der Dynamik von Wirtschaft, Gesellschaft und Politik resultieren.
Sozialökonomie ein Zukunftsprojekt
Kuhns Thema ist der Prozeß, in dem wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse erzielt werden. Fortschritt in der Wissenschaft - das ist seine These - vollzieht sich nicht durch kontinuierliche Veränderung, sondern durch revolutionäre Prozesse.
Die Struktur wissenschaftlicher Revolutionen
Post-Keynesian and heterodox economics challenge the mainstream economics theories that dominate the teaching at universities and government economic policies. And it was these latter theories that helped to cause the great depression the United States and the rest of the world is in.
In Defense of Post-Keynesian and Heterodox Economics
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.
