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. 2012 Level: leicht International Economics Hendrik Van den Berg M.E. Sharpe The volume, released by YSI’s Economic Development Working Group, comprises interviews with 13 scholars from around the world who express a variety of viewpoints on the meaning and relevance of dependency theory in today’s context. 2017 Level: mittel Dialogues on Development Ushehwedu Kufakurinani, Ingrid Harvold Kvangraven, Frutuoso Santanta, Maria Dyveke Styve (ed.) Young Scholar Initiative Those who control the world’s commanding economic heights, buttressed by the theories of mainstream economists, presume that capitalism is a self-contained and self-generating system. 2021 Level: leicht Capital and Imperialism Utsa Patnaik, Prabhat Patnaik NYU Press This edited volume presents a collection of articles that engage with various concepts from Marx’s Capital and Marxian theory in general, from a ‘Southern’ perspective. The book engages with four specific themes: “Reception of Capital in the East; Value, Commodity, Surplus Value and Capitalism; Population and Rent in Capital; and Issues Beyond Capital”. 2019 Level: leicht ‘Capital’ in the East Achin Chakraborty, Anjan Chakrabarti, Byasdeb Dasgupta, Samita Sen Springer Nature 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. 2015 Level: leicht What is Neoclassical Economics? Morgan, Jamie Routledge Though apparently siblings from the same family, New Keynesianism and Post-Keynesianism are completely different schools of economic thought. As to why and in what regard exactly, that is what this book is all about. While the former is the official label of the current mainstream in economic research and teaching (rather than neoclassic economics, which would be more apt a term), the latter tries to preserve the original thinking of John Maynard Keynes, but also additional ideas and concepts of all those building on his work. 2009 Level: leicht Introduction to Post-Keynesian Economics Marc Lavoie Palgrave Macmillan UK This book is about history of monetary economic thought. From the 18th century with Hume and Smith to the early 20th, the author explains the different schools of thought regarding the monetary theories and policies and specially the central banking theory. 2012 Level: mittel Monetary Theory and Policy from Hume and Smith to Wicksell Arie Arnon Cambridge University Press In der Volkswirtschaftslehre (VWL) hat sich seit Mitte der 1970er Jahre mit der Neoklassik ein dominierendes theoretisches Paradigma etabliert, welches das ökonomische Denken im Wesentlichen bis heute prägt. Dieser Zustand, der insbesondere seit der Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrise 2008 nicht nur in der akademischen Fachwelt durchaus kontrovers diskutiert wird, hat sowohl weitreichende Auswirkungen auf die innerdisziplinären Machtverhältnisse (z. B. Einseitigkeit in Forschung und Lehre, hierarchische Strukturierung, geringe Beachtung sozial- wissenschaftlicher Forschung und interdisziplinärer Ansätze) als auch auf gesellschafts- und wirtschaftspolitische Entwicklungen (z. B. Ökonomisierung sozialer und politischer Bereiche, einseitige Einflussnahme durch Expertengremien und Think Tanks). 2016 Level: leicht Zum Profil der deutschsprachigen Volkswirtschaftslehre Christian Grimm, Jakob Kapeller, Stephan Pühringer Forschungsinstitut für gesellschaftliche Weiterentwicklung (FGW) Manuel Schulz hat sich im Rahmen der Schreibwerkstatt "Varieties of Mainstream Economics?" kritisch mit dem normativen Selbstverständnis der Verhaltensökonomik auseinandergesetzt.

Zur normativen Verortung der Verhaltensökonomik Manuel Schulz Exploring Economics In der Auseinandersetzung um eine nachhaltige und lebenswerte Zukunft ist die Arbeitskritik eine unerlässliche Perspektive. Denn Arbeit basiert immer auf Ressourcen- und Energieverbrauch und hat somit immer direkte oder indirekte Umweltauswirkungen. 2020 Level: leicht Wie Arbeitskritik die Klimadebatte bereichern kann Maja Hoffmann Economist for Future Die Economists4Future wollten eine Diskussion über notwendige Konsequenzen der Klimakrise für die Wirtschaftswissenschaften anstoßen – was bisher aber kaum gelungen ist. Das liegt vor allem daran, dass der neoklassische Mainstream weiterhin Diskursverweigerung betreibt. Ein Beitrag von Franziska M. Hoffart und Michael Roos. 2020 Level: leicht Ist die Neoklassik bereit zum Diskurs? Franziska M. Hoffart und Michael Roos Economist for Future While many are unsatisfied with capitalism and critique it in highly sophisticated ways, there are few concrete proposals for a socialist mode of production that could replace the capitalist one. Daniel E. Saros has developed such a proposal in his book "Information Technology and Socialist Construction – The End of Capital and the Transition to Socialism" which we discuss at length over the course of two episodes. 2020 Level: mittel Daniel E. Saros on Digital Socialism and the Abolition of Capital Jan Groos, Daniel E.

Smith Reaktion Books The economics of worker cooperatives is a branch of economic inquiry with a long and esteemed pedigree, dating at least from the work of John Stuart Mill in the mid-nineteenth century. 2013 Level: mittel The Economics of Worker Cooperatives John H. Pencavel Edward Elgar Publishing Limited Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations provided the first, most influential and lasting explanation of the workings of modern economics. But with his focus on "the market" as the best mechanism for producing and distributing the necessities of life, Smith's concepts only told part of the story, leading to flawed economic models that devalue activities that fall outside of the market's parameters of buying and selling. 2007 Level: mittel The Real Wealth of Nations Riane Tennenhaus Eisler, Samuel Robert Eyre Berrett-Koehler Publishers, Incorporated The book is offered, in the first instance, to students who are beginners in economics, but some parts of it may be of wider interest.
