Macroeconomics
This collection of previously published and new papers is a major intervention in the on-going debate about the nature and future of economics. Instead of the present deductivist-formalist orientation of mainstream economics, Lars Syll advocates for the adoption of a more pluralist approach to economics, arguing for more realism and relevance with less insistence on mathematical modeling.
On the Use and Misuse of Theories and Models in Mainstream Economics

Economic Responsibility
Mehr Wachstum, mehr Arbeit, mehr Wohlstand, lautet die ökonomische Erfolgsformel der Wachstumsprediger. Diese ist für den Volkswirtschaftler Niko Paech keine Lösung für die Zukunft. In seinem Buch entwickelt er ein Gegenmodell: eine Postwachstumsökonomie... Reduktion lautet also das Gestaltungsprinzip einer Postwachstumsökonomie.
Befreiung vom Überfluss

Global Perspectives on Industrialization
Neoliberalism is dead. Again. After the election of Trump and the victory of Brexit in 2016, many diagnosed the demise of the ideology of Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan, Augusto Pinochet, and the WTO. Yet the philosophy of the free market and the strong state has an uncanny capacity to survive and even thrive in crisis.
Nine Lives of Neoliberalism
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
This book provides a far-reaching overview of the development of radical ecology and heterodox economics on the issues of sustainability.
Conceptualising an Alternative Political Economy of Sustainability
The bestselling classic that examines the history of economic thought from Adam Smith to Karl Marx—“all the economic lore most general readers conceivably could want to know, served up with a flourish” (The New York Times). The Worldly Philosophers not only enables us to see more deeply into our history but helps us better understand our own times. In this seventh edition, Robert L. Heilbroner provides a new theme that connects thinkers as diverse as Adam Smith and Karl Marx.
The Worldly Philosophers
Der freie Markt existiert nicht, „Chancengleichheit“ heißt nicht „gleiche Chancen für alle“, die Erfindung der Waschmaschine hat die Welt tiefgreifender verändert als das Internet.
23 Lügen, die sie uns über den Kapitalismus erzählen
Die herrschende Wirtschaftskrise ist auch eine Krise der herrschenden Wirtschaftslehre. Diese hat durch Jahre hindurch „den freien Markt“ propagiert und mitgeholfen, eine wirksame Regulierung der Kapital- und Geldmärkte zu verhindern. Ein unregulierter Markt, so wurde gesagt, würde sich von selbst regulieren, effizient arbeiten und optimale Ergebnisse zum Wohle aller hervorbringen.
Mythos Markt
Environmental cost-benefit analysis was developed by economists in the belief that monetary valuation of the environmental repercussions of economic activity is essential if the "environment " stands any chance of being included in government and business decisions.
Alternatives for Environmental Valuation
The book criticizes neoclassical climate economics in the tradition of William Nordhaus. It explains why this kind of thinking is misleading and why neoclassical climate economics asks the wrong questions.
Climate Economics
Wenn wir glauben, die Welt durch nachhaltigen Konsum vor der Klimakatastrophe zu retten, betrügen wir uns selbst. Das sagt der japanische Philosoph Kohei Saito. Denn der Kapitalismus ist nicht zukunftsfähig.
Systemsturz
Designed to give second-year undergraduates an intuitive understanding of basic mathematical techniques, and when and why they are applicable. Building on the traditional framework of calculus, the notion of a concave function is used to link the new algebraic methods with the more familiar graphical approachoand to introduce the modern use of duality in economic analysis.
Mathematics for Modern Economics
Das Leiden an der Liebe ist ein soziologisches Phänomen, das Illouz untersucht wie einst Marx die Ware im Kapitalismus: in Begriffen des Tauschs zwischen ungleichen Marktteilnehmern. In sechs Kapiteln entfaltet sie die Ursachen zeitgenössischen Liebesleidens sowie die Spezifika des heutigen Umgangs mit Beziehungskrisen. Die digitalen Heiratsmärkte spielen dabei ebenso eine Rolle wie die neuen Mechanismen der Partnerwahl und der strategische Umgang mit der romantischen Vorstellungskraft.
Warum Liebe weh tut
Mainstream economics almost completely ignores the role power plays in determining economic outcomes, which means it can only provide partial explanations of the distribution of wealth and income, and of the problems associated with inequality and poverty.
Power and Neoclassical Economics
In its first edition, this book helped to define the emerging field of ecological economics. This new edition surveys the field today. It incorporates all of the latest research findings and grounds economic inquiry in a more robust understanding of human needs and behavior.
Ecological Economics - Principles and Applications
Transition from central planning to a market economy, involving large-scale institutional change and reforms at all levels, is often described as the greatest social science experiment in modern times.
Handbook of the Economics and Political Economy of Transition
Three dominant forces worldwide are driving change today in our financial markets: competition, technology and regulation. But their collective impact in reshaping the markets, though they may be viewed individually as desirable or well-intentioned, is producing challenging results that are difficult to predict, hard to control and not easy to understand.
Rethinking Regulatory Structure
In diesem Sammelband schreiben 50 Autor*innen in 34 Beiträgen, inwiefern Vergesellschaft soziale Ungleichheut und ökologische Zerstörung bekämpfen kann. Thematisiert werden theroetische Einlassungen, bis hin zu partiellen Strukturen und Kämpfen.
Vergesellschaftung und die sozialökologische Frage
The 2007-2010 economic crisis has profoundly shaken the foundations of mainstream financial economics. The apparent falsification of core concepts such as risk diversification, informational efficiency and valuation efficiency by an unexpected course of events has revealed the need to redefine the objectives and direction of research today.
After the Crisis
Im Wachstumsprozess weitet sich der wirtschaftliche Kreislauf zu einer Spirale aus, die im Aufstieg einem exponentiellen Pfad folgt. Um den Antrieb und die Möglichkeit zur Verfolgung dieses Wachstumspfads zu erklären, muss die Dynamik des Geldes, der Energie und der menschlichen Imagination deutlicher herausgestellt werden als es in der konventionellen ökonomischen Theorie der Fall ist.
Die Wachstumsspirale
Economics, Culture and Social Theory examines how culture has been neglected in economic theorising and considers how economics could benefit by incorporating ideas from social and cultural theory.
Economics, Culture and Social Theory
An honest discussion of free trade and how nations can sensibly chart a path forward in today’s global economy.
Straight Talk on Trade
It has become a contentious term in- and outside of economic policy: austerity. Allegedly the culprit behind the shortfalls of governments' reaction to the Great Financial Crisis, the policy makes for a spirited debate.
Austerity
"This eleven-week course offers a pluralist introduction to political economy and economics.
