E. King Edward Elgar One of the world’s leading economists of inequality, Branko Milanovic presents a bold new account of the dynamics that drive inequality on a global scale. Drawing on vast data sets and cutting-edge research, he explains the benign and malign forces that make inequality rise and fall within and among nations. 2016 Level: advanced Global Inequality Branko Milanovic Harvard University Press Is or has economics ever been the imperial social science? Could or should it ever be so? These are the central concerns of this book. It involves a critical reflection on the process of how economics became the way it is, in terms of a narrow and intolerant orthodoxy, that has, nonetheless, increasingly directed its attention to appropriating the subject matter of other social sciences through the process termed "economics imperialism". 2009 Level: advanced From Economics Imperialism to Freakonomics Ben Fine, Dimitris Milonakis Routledge "A serious reconsideration of the 'economics of science' is long overdue," say Philip Mirowski and Esther-Mirjam Sent in the introduction to Science Bought and Sold.

Climate. Food. Work. How are the crises of the twenty-first century connected?In "Capitalism in the Web of Life", Jason W. Moore argues that the sources of today's global turbulence have a common cause: capitalism as a way of organizing nature, including human nature. 2015 Level: advanced Capitalism in the Web of Life Jason W. Moore Verso If a country’s Gross Domestic Product increases each year, but so does the percentage of its people deprived of basic education, health care, and other opportunities, is that country really making progress? If we rely on conventional economic indicators, can we ever grasp how the world’s billions of individuals are really managing? 2011 Level: advanced Creating Capabilities Martha Craven Nussbaum Belknap Press of Harvard University Press As a response to ongoing economic, social and environmental crises, many private actors have enlarged their definition of 'value' to include environmental and social elements. Such practices, however, appear incompatible with the current epistemological structure of academic financial discourse. 2016 Level: advanced Finance Reconsidered Bernard Paranque, Roland Perez Emerald Group Publishing

In the graveyard of economic ideology, dead ideas still stalk the land.

The recent financial crisis laid bare many of the assumptions behind market liberalism—the theory that market-based solutions are always best, regardless of the problem. For decades, their advocates dominated mainstream economics, and their influence created a system where an unthinking faith in markets led many to view speculative investments as fundamentally safe. 2012 Level: beginner Zombie Economics John Quiggin Princeton University Press Modern mission theory is guided largely by the three self paradigm that suggests indigenous churches can only be healthy if they are self-governing, self-propagating, and self-supporting. Consequently, Western missionaries, their churches, and their agencies have been increasingly indisposed to giving generously. We must rethink the interplay of dollars dependency and what it means to do the right thing with our money as we pursue twenty-first century missions. 2007 Level: advanced To Give Or Not to Give John Rowell InterVarsity Press Economics After the Crisis is an introductory economics textbook, covering key topics in micro and macro economics. However, this book differs from other introductory economics textbooks in the perspective it takes, and it incorporates issues that are presently underserved by existing textbooks on the market. This book offers an introduction to economics that takes into account criticisms of the orthodox approach, and which acknowledges the role that this largely Western approach has played in the current global financial and economic crisis. 2014 Level: advanced Economics After the Crisis Irene van Staveren Routledge Foundations of Economics breathes life into the discipline by linking key economic concepts with wider debates and issues.

The history of economics as a subdiscipline has lost touch with the mainstream study of economics. InThe Future of the History of Economics, internationally known scholars from ten countries provide a comparative assessment of the subdiscipline. 2002 Level: advanced The Future of the History of Economics Eliot Roy Weintraub Duke University Press Uncertain Futures considers how economic actors visualize the future and decide how to act in conditions of radical uncertainty. It starts from the premise that dynamic capitalist economies are characterized by relentless innovation and novelty and hence exhibit an indeterminacy that cannot be reduced to measurable risk. 2018 Level: advanced Uncertain Futures Beckert, Jens; Bronk, Richard Oxford University Press Understanding Capitalism: Competition, Command, and Change is an introduction to economics that explains how capitalism works, why it sometimes fails, and how it undergoes and brings about change.

Mcgraw-Hill Education Until the end of the early 1970s, from a history of economic thought perspective, the mainstream in economics was pluralist, but once neoclassical economics became totally dominant it claimed the mainstream as its own. Since then, alternative views and schools of economics increasingly became minorities in the discipline and were considered 'heterodox'. 2016 Level: advanced Reclaiming Pluralism in Economics Jerry Courvisanos, Jamie Doughney, Alex Millmow Routledge Edited by two of the foremost academics in the field, the volumes comprise insightful and original contributions from scholars across the world.

Cheltenham 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. 2006 Level: advanced Alternatives for Environmental Valuation Michael Getzner, Clive Spash, Sigrid Stagl Routledge This book presents a methodological framework for the analysis of intercultural issues frequently misinterpreted by existing theories. It uses a challenge-and-response theory of cultural development to examine the relationship between different natural disasters and threats and the developments of ancient civilizations. 2012 Level: beginner Introduction to Intercultural Economics Guo, Rongxing Springer This book provides a blueprint for those interested in teaching from a pluralist perspective, regardless of ideology.

Jackson Edward Elgar Publishing 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. 2016 Level: advanced Power and Neoclassical Economics Ozanne, Adam Palgrave Pivot Why is it that some countries become rich while others remain poor? Do markets require regulation to function efficiently? If markets offer an efficient way of exchanging goods, why do individuals even create firms? 2019 Level: beginner Institutional Economics - An Introduction Voigt, Stefan Cambridge University Press In a challenge to conventional views on modern monetary and fiscal policy, this book presents a coherent analysis of how money is created, how it functions in global exchange rate regimes, and how the mystification of the nature of money has constrained governments, and prevented states from acting in the public interest. 2015 Level: advanced Modern Money Theory Wray, L. Randall Palgrave Macmillan Thirty-years of economic transformation has turned China into one of the major players in the global capitalist economy. However, its economic growth has generated rising problems in inequality, alienation, and sustainability with the agrarian crises of the 1990s giving rise to real social outcry to the extent that they became the object of central government policy reformulations. 2015 Level: advanced Social Economy in China and the World Ngai Pun, Ben Hok-bun Ku, Hairong Yan, Anita Koo Taylor & Francis Ltd Three dominant forces worldwide are driving change today in our financial markets: competition, technology and regulation.

They are recruiting subjects in the field rather than in the classroom, using field goods rather than induced valuations, and using field context rather than abstract terminology in instructions. 2004 Level: beginner Field Experiments in Economics Harrison, Glenn W.; Carpenter, Jeffrey P.; List, John A. Emerald Group Foreign exploitation of economic crises in the developing world has been a central claim of neoliberal critics.
