Behold the Leviathan

2025/01/31 出版

In defiance of the stereotypes trotted out by yesterday's pundits, modern India's rise is both unusual and unexpected. It is unusual because some of the sharpest economic improvements are being observed in those sections of Indian society which were thought to be the most disadvantaged: women, oppressed castes and rural India. It is unexpected because of the widespread view. Until a couple of years ago, India's democratic construct was inferior to China's single-party state. In Behold the Leviathan: The Unusual Rise of Modern India, Saurabh Mukherjea and Nandita Rajhansa provide a gripping picture of how 1.5 billion Indians are combining to spectacular effect to create a range of social and economic outcomes which have no precedent in any emerging economy. For example, India now has as many chess grandmasters as the United States, and the expertise of its scientists has guided India's space modules to the dark side of the moon, a feat no other country has achieved. In this zeitgeist-defining book, the authors have also explored, through pathbreaking research, why the vast majority of India's companies are struggling to grow their profits even as a small minority of these companies have gone on to build globe-girdling franchises worth tens of billions of dollars. Written over two years, during which the authors crisscrossed India hundreds of times and interviewed over fifty of the country's leading thinkers in business, policymaking, media, and academia, Behold the Leviathan has been hailed by the cognoscenti as 'a firecracker of a read, ' challenging decision-makers, policymakers, and opinion leaders to reevaluate their long-standing perceptions of India's development.

Human Capital Development

Gurvy,Kavei  著
Grin Verlag 出版
2025/01/26 出版

Academic Paper from the year 2024 in the subject Economics - Micro-economics, language: English, abstract: This paper explores the critical role of human capital development in driving rural economic transformation in Namibia. Using a mixed method of policy gap analysis, informed group consultations and semi-structured interviews, it delves into the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats related to human capital development in rural areas, emphasizing the significance of community-based education initiatives, government support programs, and traditional knowledge and skills. Additionally, the paper examines the policy environment and gaps, challenges, and cross-cutting issues associated with human capital development in rural Namibia. It recommends for an integrated cross-sectoral policy framework to enforce institutional commitments at rural development level. Furthermore, the paper highlights the need for increased investment in education and training, promotion of entrepreneurship and innovation, and addressing gender disparities in access to education and training as essential strategies for advancing human capital development in rural Namibia. Multi-disciplinary and multi-sectoral research in the future would suffice to unravel the challenge of rural transformation from different perspectives

As Gods Among Men

Guido,Alfani  著
Princeton 出版
2025/01/22 出版

"In this masterly book, [Alfani] offers an insightful long-run perspective and fascinating lessons for the future. A must-read!"--Thomas Piketty, author of Capital in the Twenty-First Century A sweeping narrative that shows how the rich historically justified themselves by helping their societies in times of crisis, why they no longer do, and what that may mean for social stability The rich have always fascinated, sometimes in problematic ways. Medieval thinkers feared that the super-rich would act 'as gods among men'; much more recently Thomas Piketty made wealth central to discussions of inequality. In this book, Guido Alfani offers a history of the rich and super-rich in the West, examining who they were, how they accumulated their wealth and what role they played in society. Covering the last thousand years, with frequent incursions into antiquity, and integrating recent research on economic inequality, Alfani finds--despite the different paths to wealth in different eras--fundamental continuities in the behaviour of the rich and public attitudes towards wealth across Western history. His account offers a novel perspective on current debates about wealth and income disparity. Alfani argues that the position of the rich and super-rich in Western society has always been intrinsically fragile; their very presence has inspired social unease. In the Middle Ages, an excessive accumulation of wealth was considered sinful; the rich were expected not to appear to be wealthy. Eventually, the rich were deemed useful when they used their wealth to help their communities in times of crisis. Yet in the twenty-first century, Alfani points out, the rich and the super-rich--their wealth largely preserved through the Great Recession and COVID-19--have been exceptionally reluctant to contribute to the common good in times of crisis, rejecting even such stopgap measures as temporary tax increases. History suggests that this is a troubling development--for the rich, and for everyone else.

The Myth That Made Us

Jeff,Fuhrer  著
Mit Press 出版
2025/01/19 出版

How our false narratives about post-racism and meritocracy have been used to condone egregious economic outcomes--and what we can do to fix the system. The Myth That Made Us exposes how false narratives--of a supposedly post-racist nation, of the self-made man, of the primacy of profit- and shareholder value-maximizing for businesses, and of minimal government interference--have been used to excuse gross inequities and to shape and sustain the US economic system that delivers them. Jeff Fuhrer argues that systemic racism continues to produce vastly disparate outcomes and that our brand of capitalism favors doing little to reduce disparities. Evidence from other developed capitalist economies shows it doesn't have to be that way. We broke this (mean-spirited) economy. We can fix it. Rather than merely laying blame at the feet of both conservatives and liberals for aiding and abetting an unjust system, Fuhrer charts a way forward. He supplements evidence from data with insights from community voices and outlines a system that provides more equal opportunity to accumulate both human and financial capital. His key areas of focus include universal access to high-quality early childhood education; more effective use of our community college system as a pathway to stable employment; restructuring key aspects of the low-wage workplace; providing affordable housing and transit links; supporting people of color by serving as mentors, coaches, and allies; and implementing Baby Bonds and Reparations programs to address the accumulated loss of wealth among Black people due to the legacy of enslavement and institutional discrimination. Fuhrer emphasizes embracing humility, research-based approaches, and community involvement as ways to improve economic opportunity.

The Capital Order

University 出版
2025/01/18 出版

A Financial Times Best Book of the Year "A must-read, with key lessons for the future."--Thomas Piketty A groundbreaking examination of austerity's dark intellectual origins. For more than a century, governments facing financial crisis have resorted to the economic policies of austerity--cuts to wages, fiscal spending, and public benefits--as a path to solvency. While these policies have been successful in appeasing creditors, they've had devastating effects on social and economic welfare in countries all over the world. Today, as austerity remains a favored policy among troubled states, an important question remains: What if solvency was never really the goal? In The Capital Order, political economist Clara E. Mattei explores the intellectual origins of austerity to uncover its originating motives: the protection of capital--and indeed capitalism--in times of social upheaval from below. Mattei traces modern austerity to its origins in interwar Britain and Italy, revealing how the threat of working-class power in the years after World War I animated a set of top-down economic policies that elevated owners, smothered workers, and imposed a rigid economic hierarchy across their societies. Where these policies "succeeded," relatively speaking, was in their enrichment of certain parties, including employers and foreign trade interests, who accumulated power and capital at the expense of labor. Here, Mattei argues, is where the true value of austerity can be observed: its insulation of entrenched privilege and its elimination of all alternatives to capitalism. Drawing on newly uncovered archival material from Britain and Italy, much of it translated for the first time, The Capital Order offers a damning and essential new account of the rise of austerity--and of modern economics--at the levers of contemporary political power.

The Corporation in the Twenty-First Century

John,Kay  著
2025/01/17 出版

A radical reappraisal of the nature and activities of business--what it is for and how it works "A characteristically acerbic analysis of the archetypal organisational unit of capitalism."--Andrew Hill, Financial Times, "Best Books of 2024: Business" Shortlisted for the 2024 Financial Times and Schroders Business Book of the Year Award In the world of Adam Smith and Karl Marx, capitalists built and controlled mills and factories. That relationship between capital and labor continued in the automobile assembly lines and petrochemical plants of the twentieth century. But no longer: products and production have dematerialized. The goods and services provided by the leading companies of the twenty-first century appear on your screen, fit in your pocket, or occupy your head. Ownership of the means of production is a redundant concept. Workers are the means of production; increasingly, they take the plant home. Capital is a service bought from a specialist supplier with little influence over customer businesses. The professional managers who run modern corporations do not exert authority because they are wealthy; they are wealthy because they exert authority. John Kay's incisive overhaul of our ideas about business redefines our understanding of successful commercial activity and the corporation--and describes how we have come to "love the product" as we "hate the producer." This is a brilliant and original work from one of the greatest economists.

Beyond the Instrumentalised Economy

de Gruyter 出版
2025/01/16 出版

The concept of an economy requires us to characterise what human life and society are fundamentally about, or what is valuable and why. This includes our social relations with each other and to the ecosystems we live in, as well as our happiness, well-being and flourishing. Beyond the Instrumentalised Economy defines what work, consumption and the use of natural resources would look like if they were not instrumentalised. This enables the reader to see how a company would work in a non-instrumentalised economy, and what would constitute a non-instrumentalised market. Based on this, the book provides insight concerning how investment would work in such an economy, and the main features of a non-instrumentalised financial system.

Macroeconomic Modeling

Ray C,Fair  著
Mit Press 出版
2025/01/15 出版

An empirical approach to constructing macroeconomic models. Macroeconomic Modeling presents an empirically based approach to the construction of macroeconomic models--the Cowles Commission approach--as a response to the backlash that has taken place since the late 1970s to this methodology. The emphasis in the literature has been on tightly specified theoretical models, which lack realism. In this book, Ray C. Fair develops models to analyze a variety of issues and events in macroeconomics and the US economy, and he explains the econometric techniques needed to estimate those models. Many of the results are either contrary to results from the theoretical models or cannot be examined by the theoretical models because they omit many important features of the economy. Fair covers a broad range of topics, including inflation and unemployment, the size of wealth effects, the behavior of the Federal Reserve and its effects on the economy, the effects of fiscal policy, Okun's law, and contractions and expansions. Macroeconomic Modeling will appeal equally to graduate students and researchers as well as macroeconomic policy makers.

The State of Economic Inclusion Report 2024

World Bank 出版
2025/01/15 出版

The journey of economic inclusion programs has been remarkable, marked by significant strides in creating job opportunities and building resilience for poor and vulnerable populations. The State of Economic Inclusion Report 2024: Pathways to Scale highlights the progress and challenges of scaling up government-led programs, as well as the vital interplay with nongovernment actors and the private sector. The report draws on the 2023 Landscape Survey of Economic Inclusion Programs and on the operational insights garnered through the Partnership for Economic Inclusion's (PEI's) collaboration with its partners, summarizing emerging evidence from government-led programs, highlighting significant knowledge gaps, and offering insights for future programmatic approaches. This report offers a comprehensive overview of the evolving landscape, global footprint, and key design features of economic inclusion programs. Comparisons with The State of Economic Inclusion Report 2021 provide valuable insights into shifts and trends over the past 3 years, including those for the economic empowerment of women and youth, for collaborative efforts across different stakeholders, and for resilience to climate change. The current report complements the earlier report by exploring efforts to scale up policy and programming, including progress and challenges around government-led programs and the interplay with nongovernment actors and the private sector. This report analyzes shifts in the global landscape, including the degree to which economic inclusion programs are being customized in vastly different contexts and the growing role of economic inclusion in building resilience and providing job opportunities to the poor population in the context of overlapping crises. Scaling up programs that empower poor and vulnerable populations to access economic opportunities, enhance food security, and build both short- and long-term resilience can contribute to more-inclusive and more-sustainable growth that leaves no one behind. This report provides policy makers with key recommendations for expanding coverage, strengthening outcomes for women and youth, maintaining program quality, continuing to build an evidence base, and designing programs for sustainable impacts. Data from the report are available on the PEI Data Portal, www.peiglobal.org, where users can explore and submit data.

The Future of Work in Pharmaceutical Product Supply

Grin Verlag 出版
2025/01/12 出版

Master's Thesis from the year 2024 in the subject Economy - Health Economics, grade: 1,0, Fachhochschule des bfi Wien GmbH (Master of Business Administration), course: Digital Transformation, language: English, abstract: This master's thesis examines the impact of digital transformation in the product supply domains of global pharmaceuticals companies, which are simultaneously affected by two additional factors: firstly, by novel biomedical drugs with complex manufacturing processes and logistics, and secondly, by the increasing use of AI and GenAI. These changes come with strict regulatory oversight, but require increasing cooperation with regulators. In particular, this work investigates the dilemma between adopting future operating principles for the rapidly evolving application of digital technologies, artificial intelligence and scientific product innovations in the traditional, slowly changing and highly regulated operating area of pharmaceuticals product supply. The aim is to gain insights into the following main research question: What will the future of work look like with the concurrent introduction of digital technologies, AI and innovative biomedical modalities in the strictly regulated environment of pharmaceuticals product supply? In addition, the following subquestions are answered: What technical skills and professional competencies will be required of employees in pharmaceuticals product supply in the future? How will relationships with regulators evolve in an environment shaped by innovations in digital technologies, AI and biomedical modalities?

Africonomics

New Press 出版
2025/01/10 出版

A bold, concise history of Western economic interventions in Africa, by the former director of the Centre of African Studies at the University of Cambridge For centuries, Westerners have tried to "fix" African economies. From the abolition of slavery onward, missionaries, philanthropists, development economists, and NGOs have arrived on the continent, full of good intentions and bad ideas. Their experiments have invariably gone awry, to the great surprise of all involved. Historian Bronwen Everill argues that these interventions fail, and frequently cause harm, because they start from a misguided premise: that African economies just need to be more like the West. Ignoring Africa's own traditions of economic thought, Americans and Europeans assumed a set of universal economic laws that they thought could be applied anywhere. They enforced specifically Western ideas about growth, wealth, debt, unemployment, inflation, women's work and more, and used Western metrics to find African countries wanting. The West does not know better than African nations how an economy should be run. By laying bare the myths and realities of our tangled economic history, Africonomics moves from Western ignorance to African knowledge.
