Greening the Economy: Sustainable Cities
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

Heilbroner provides a new theme that connects thinkers as diverse as Adam Smith and Karl Marx.

Marxian Economics Lectures
Economic theory must distinguish between publicly owned and privately owned property if it is to account for the effect of institutions on the behavior of individuals. Careful study of the theories of Marxists and the real-world experience in the Soviet economy offer important lessons and insight for economic modeling and the ongoing development of theory. In this course, Marxist/Leninist theory and Soviet reality will be studied with an open mind, and with the goal of taking lessons from the case study. To what extent was the Soviet economy an accurate expression of Marxist theory? If Marxism were tried somewhere else would the results be the same?
Economic History of the Soviet Union
From the mercantile monopolies of seventeenth-century empires to the modern-day authority of the WTO, IMF, and World Bank, the nations of the world have struggled to effectively harness globalization's promise. The economic narratives that underpinned these eras the gold standard, the Bretton Woods regime, the "Washington Consensus" brought great success and great failure.

[Schumpeters Begriff der "Schöpferischen Zerstörung" ist spätestens durch die Innovationen im Silicon Valley in aller Munde. Aber was hat es damit genau auf sich?

Marxian Political Economy
Management in einer Moderne, die von Überbietungszwängen beherrscht wird: Das ist „post-archimedisches Management“, Management ohne festen Punkt und sicheren Grund, das gleichwohl „die Erde bewegt“; Management im Zeichen radikaler Kontingenz, eskalierender Pfadabhängigkeiten und der Unmöglichkeit, die Kluft der Kontingenz mit perfekten oder auch nur halbwegs sicheren Begründungsbrücken zu überbauen.
Management in der Hypermoderne
Wir sind in einem Zeitalter angekommen, in dem der Mensch verschwinden könnte - und mit ihm die Welt, die er so gnadenlos ausbeutet. Denn was ist heute für uns nicht billig und schnell zu haben - auf Kosten der vielen Menschen, die weniger privilegiert sind als wir?
