New Economic Growth Theory
The purpose of this book is to give the reader an opportunity to develop a solid grounding of New Economic Growth Theory. The book highlights the textbook theory of New Growth Theory and how economic growth results from the increasing returns associated with new knowledge and new technology. Further points of view are introduced about how technology is the driver of economic growth and a discussion is presented on the aggregate supply and aggregate demand side. There are a number of practical implications from New Growth Theory and the book brings to light some of the things we should think about to formulate programs designed to stimulate economic growth. If we accept the theory, it should lead us to change our views on the importance of New Growth Theory. There are a number of lessons for economic development policy, and this book suggests some broad strategies that we should focus on; creating knowledge is central to economic development and macroeconomic policies can trigger increasing returns to growth.
The Economy of Ireland
Authored by some of the most distinguished economists in Ireland, the 15th edition of this well-established textbook examines the background, development and ongoing issues surrounding the economy of Ireland. The Economy of Ireland considers the evolution of the Irish economy over time; the policy priorities for a small regional economy in the eurozone; the role of the state in policy making; taxation and regulatory policy; and the challenge of sustainable development. This provides a framework for analysing policy issues at a national level, including the Irish labour market and migration, inequality and poverty, and the care economy. The book then considers issues at a sectoral level, from agriculture and trade to the education and health sectors. Fully updated with the latest available data, contemporary examples and references, as well as discussion and analysis of current topical issues, all chapters have been extensively revised for the new edition. With two brand new chapters on Behavioural Economics and Demography, and updated material and analysis on taxation, inequality, sustainable development and ethics, this is an ideal text for students studying modules on Irish Economics.
Natural Resources in Early Modern Economies of Knowledge
Natural Resources in Early Modern Economies of Knowledge investigates the epistemological dimension and the social embedding of early modern resource policies. It especially addresses the knowledge economy of two resource groups - water and extracted minerals - in their cultural contexts. The study of the practical dimension implies that special attention is paid to labor activities such as mining, fishing and engineering, while the investigation of the cognitive dimension concerns the codification and transmission of knowledge about terrestrial and aquatic resources, both vernacular and scientific. The contributions of this volume provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge layers that underpinned the material and immaterial economy of the early modern period in fields such as natural history, proto-geology, metallurgy, alchemy, early hydrology, ichthyology, tidal theories, natural philosophy and cosmology. They address the multi-layered episteme of resource-related knowledge from the sixteenth to the late eighteenth century, and argue for the intertwining of social organization, practices (including the use of technology), and theoretical learning. The articles also point out the ecological roots and consequences of economic-epistemological activities and the shifting conceptualization of the natural resources that were exploited and valued.
Framing India's Low Carbon Development Pathways
In the context of a developing country such as India and of the global commitment to limit the temperature rise, this book provides a comprehensive and novel approach on framing the low carbon development pathways. Data plays a critical role in accurate assessment so it gives a stepwise detail on reconciling national accounting statistics with energy balance data. Further, it explains the setting up of technology optimization and economy-wide macroeconomic framing models. These models have limitations when used in isolation so the book further elaborates on the soft coupling process to overcome the limitations of using individual models. Detailed examples using case studies illustrate the application of structured approach to determine net zero pathways and business decarbonisation scenarios. Future applications for important development questions related to net zero analysis are also enumerated.

Each model can be mathematically integrated with any other model in the book. The book also provides a computational procedure for simulation so that anyone can observe dynamics of the system using computers.
The Fractured Age
THE LEADING FORECAST ON THE IMPACT OF TRUMP'S TARIFFS AROUND THE WORLD "An exceptionally sensible, clear-headed and original thinker" The Financial Times "The best book on the future of the global economy" The International Economy The tectonic plates of the global order are shifting, creating new pressures that will strain long-standing financial structures. BUT WHERE WILL THE WORLD'S NEW ECONOMIC FAULT LINES EMERGE? AND HOW DISRUPTIVE WILL THEY BE? In a clear and far-reaching reckoning, The Fractured Age lays bare the threats and opportunities that will shape the world economy over the coming decades. It charts the emergence of geopolitical blocs in a world undergoing profound change - blocs whose relative size and economic diversity will be pivotal in reordering everything from goods trade and investment flows to technology transfers and access to critical minerals. As the world enters another period of seismic upheaval and a new global order emerges, understanding which economies are poised to benefit, and which will bear the costs, will be critical for effective decision-making throughout boardrooms and the halls of government. As Chief Economist of one of the world's leading providers of independent macroeconomic and market research, Neil Shearing lays out a stark vision of the peaks and rifts that will unfold, and how they will fundamentally reshape the global economy in this fractured age.

The Gods Must Be Crazy II
Ay Yi Yai Yi! It's halftime, America!Welcome to the intermission of empire, featuring interpretive dances by decaying institutions choreographed by lobbyists holding MBAs in short-termism.Like the infamous Coke bottle in The Gods Must Be Crazy, today's techno-totems-quantum AI supremacy, sovereign digital currencies, and China's Belt-and-Data colonialism-have crash-landed onto our meticulously manicured lawns. Initially celebrated as symbols of progress, these shiny artifacts now function as civilization's Rorschach tests, exposing strategic confusion and institutional amnesia as we outsource national strategy to TikTok algorithms.Part satirical lament, part Rooseveltian call-to-arms, The Gods Must Be Crazy 2.0 dissects an empire that has gamified governance and pawned its industrial soul, where frogs leisurely simmer in debt-flavored snake oil and intellectual property vultures patiently circle overhead.Meanwhile, China silently installs the firmware of global dominance, algorithmically colonizing over a hundred nations via its Belt and Road initiatives. While their emissaries calmly present invoices in Confucian grace, America passionately debates cartoon politics and the semantic nuances of infrastructure.This book revives the Roosevelt Doctrine-not as nostalgic reverie, but as a policy defibrillator-to reclaim capitalist innovation, restore institutional competence, and resist digital authoritarianism before history enshrines us as a cautionary meme.The whistle's about to blow, and the scorekeeper is toggling to Mandarin.Ay Yi Yai Yi! We are in the middle of the New World Order!

The Idea of America
Darren Walker has lived the promise of America. Born to a single mother in a Louisiana charity hospital, the pride of Head Start and public schools in rural East Texas, Walker serves today as the tenth President of the Ford Foundation, among the largest private foundations in the United States. Since 2013, he has overseen more than $7 billion in grantmaking, while transforming philanthropy and inspiring conversations about and commitments to democratic values and institutions around the world. As Walker writes, "I have lived on both sides of American inequality. And I know, all too personally, that the distance between the two has never been greater." In The Idea of America: Reflections on Inequality, Democracy, and the Values We Share, Walker argues that we can narrow our widening divides by rediscovering our common aspirations and common good. With an original foreword by President William Jefferson Clinton, this prescient, timely compendium introduces us to an essential leader of and for our moment--in his own words--through his most essential reflections, essays, and speeches. Across 97 selected pieces, many published here for the first time, Walker shares from his: Uniquely American story and extraordinary life's journey Bold leadership of the Ford Foundation, whose efforts and assets he marshaled to uproot inequalities of all kinds Audacious vision for a philanthropy that prioritizes justice beyond generosity--and that practices a new Gospel of Wealth for our new gilded age Lifelong passion for arts and culture, wellsprings of empathy and of social change Trailblazing advocacy for a more democratic capitalism, which ensures that where markets lead, justice follows Urgent reaffirmation of America's enduring promise--that from many, we are one, and that all deserve dignity, fairness, and opportunity Ultimately, Walker calls for courageous, moral leadership from us all--challenging us to step back from the extremes, to lean into nuance and complexity, and to build longer bridges. "Hope," Walker affirms, "is the oxygen of democracy." The Idea of America gives powerful testimony to all that is possible "if we renew our fidelity to the values that bind us, both despite and because of our differences."

Extractive Capitalism
An expos矇 of the extractive industries powering globalization --and a primer on fighting back Laleh Khalili reflects on the hidden stories behind late capitalism, from seafarers abandoned on debt-ridden container ships to the nefarious reach of consultancy firms and the cronyism that drives record-breaking profits. Piercing, wry, and constantly revealing, Extractive Capitalism brings vividly to light the dark truths behind the world's most voracious industries. Whether it is pumping oil, mining resources, or shipping commodities across oceans, the global economy runs on extraction. Promises of frictionless trade and lucrative speculation are the hallmarks of our era, but the backbone of globalization is still low-cost labor and rapacious corporate control. Extractive capitalism is what made--and what maintains--our unequal world.

Making World Development Work
Making World Development Work is about economic development and its relation to population, environment and resource issues in less affluent countries. The essays presented here criticize the way most large development projects are designed and conducted and are written by professionals from a broad range of disciplines involved in current development research. Making World Development Work explains why overly simplistic economic models of development have led to many failures and unnecessary environmental destruction. The editors contend the preferred method of development is through a systematiic process that integrates the natural sciences with economics and one that is based on scientific method instead of ideology. Leclerc and Hall review the logical and methodological basis of neoclassical economics and its application to development. They provide a series of historical perspectives, including less developed countries that have improved successfully and others that have not been as successful. They complete the demonstration with a portfolio of current development research innovations in the social and economic sciences as well as in the natural sciences, including a new logical basis for economics called biophysical economics.Making World Development Work offers new ways to consider development including the limitations of cheap energy, environmental degradation, and human population growth as the fundamental issues for any economic model that can have any hope of working in the future.

Global Challenges & Regional Responses
The advent of globalization and the revolution in military affairs necessitates making substantive changes to the Army's organizational structure. The current traditional hierarchical structure worked well in the Cold War era but is now a source of rising tension between warfighting effectiveness and peace keeping efficiencies. Acknowledging the impact of globalization on the Army, Army Chief of Staff General Eric K. Shinseki stated his willingness to tackle tough organizational change. This monograph researches organizational change from the perspective of international corporations responding to the forces of globalization. By studying corporate organizational structure and corporate organizational change, numerous lessons can be drawn that are applicable to the Army's transformation efforts. An analysis of General Motors demonstrates the need for large, traditionally structured organizations to embrace change while the study of Shell Oil demonstrates the necessity of sustaining structural change. Given the difficulty and the importance of the organizational redesign process, it is critical that the Army's leadership studies past efforts to reorganize the Army and researches corporate case studies focusing on organizational transformation. Many of the concerns that General Shinseki is facing in his attempt to organize the Army into a strategically responsive force are identical to the ones faced by chief executive officers in the corporate arena. A failure to study corporate America's reorganization efforts increases the risk that the Army's transformation efforts will fail, leaving the Army isolated and operationally and strategically irrelevant in comparison with its forward looking sister services.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Expeditionary Economics
When major combat operations come to a close, decisive action is paramount. Without deliberate action in subsequent stability operations, there is risk of marginalizing previous victories. Expeditionary economic theory offers a solution for bringing stability to post-conflict regions. Economic growth and expansion is its primary objective. Stability operations require flexible military capability that can proactively respond to complex environments. Expeditionary economics offers useful principles for military planners to consider when developing solutions to complex problems. These principles are evident in historical military campaigns and operations. This study examines the nature and development of expeditionary economic theory. Furthermore, it searches the historical cases of postwar Japan, Vietnam, and the Balkans for examples of the principles found in expeditionary economics. The findings suggest that applying the principles of expeditionary economics in post-conflict environments is vital for achieving strategic aims. This is especially useful when the preponderance of military involvement transitions from major combat to stability operations. However, current military doctrine already accounts for this and must not be discarded in pursuit of economic growth to accomplish strategic aims. This paper concludes that there is no need to adopt any new doctrine with separate military organizations to accomplish this.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Extroverted Financialisation
Extroverted Financialization offers a new account of the Americanization of global finance through the concept of 'extroverted financialization'. The study presents German banks as active participants of financialization, demonstrating how deeply entangled they were with global markets since post-WWII reconstruction. Extroverted Financialization locates the transformation of global banking within the revolution of funding practices in 1960s New York and shows how this empowered US banks to systematically outcompete their European counterparts. This uneven competition drove German banks to partially uproot themselves from their own home markets and transform their own banking models into US financial models. This transformation not only led to the German banks' speculative investments during the 2000s subprime mortgage bubble, but more importantly to rising USD dependency and their contemporary decline.
The Law of Conservation of Value
This book discusses the concept of value in economics and proposes a framework for incorporating value as a conserved quantity. In physics, energy, momentum, and other variables are preserved throughout the interactions of bodies in closed systems. The economic variable of value follows the same principle and is preserved throughout transactions between agents. By treating value as a quantity that can be accumulated and exchanged among actors and as an encapsulation of economic variables like utility and labor, the law of conservation of value was developed.In the context of this book, value is anything that is significant to someone. In formal terms, value is the potential to act in an environment. It can equate to wealth in terms of possessions (clothes, houses, cars, money, etc.), physical health (the strength to accomplish something), intellectual potential (our intellectual capacity, knowledge, and skills), and emotional satisfaction (addressing our needs and self-actualization). Thus, value can be encapsulated as a conserved quantity throughout transactions. Marginal value and speed of marginal value are defined as derivatives of value and marginal value, respectively. Traditional economic statements are represented here as cycles of value wherein value is conserved. Producer-consumer dyads, shortage and surplus, and the potential of value for representing markets and the economy are explored. The role of the government in the economy is also explained through the cycles of value in which the government is involved. Sustainable growth is ensured as an outcome of these cycles of value. The application of the law is demonstrated through practical examples exploring a variety of scenarios, for example, with value playing the role of capital or price in contexts of supply and demand.
