In seinem Buch, wirft Quinn Slobodian einen neuen Blick auf die Geschichte von Freihandel und neoliberaler Globalisierung. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei eine Gruppe von Ökonomen um Friedrich von Hayek und Wilhelm Röpke. Getrieben von der Angst, nationale Massendemokratien könnten durch Zölle oder Kapitalverkehrskontrollen das reibungslose Funktionieren der Weltwirtschaft stören, bestand ihre Vision darin, den Markt auf der globalen Ebene zu verrechtlichen und so zu schützen.

Die evolutorische Ökonomik ist weltweit das dynamischste Forschungsfeld der Wirtschaftswissenschaft und verändert die Grundlagen des Fachs in fast allen Bereichen. Motor ist die Einsicht, daß die herkömmlichen ökonomischen Methoden mit dem zentralen Phänomen der modernen Wirtschaft, dem kontinuierlichen Wandel, eher schlecht als recht umgehen können.
Dabei ging es um den Alfred-Nobel-Gedächtnispreis für Wirtschaftswissenschaften (2019) und wir konnten mal genau nachhaken, was es mit diesen „Randomised Controlled Trials“ in der Entwicklungsökonomik auf sich hat.
"De-Risking“ ist ein geflügelter Begriff. Er kann als ein Element einer Strategie betrachtet werden, die darauf abzielt, die handelspolitische Konfrontation mit China diskursiv einzurahmen.

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
