Best Laid Plans
The first in-depth account of the economic reform program of Myanmar's ill-fated Aung San Suu Kyi government, by one of her key advisors. Best Laid Plans is a unique first-hand account of the radical economic reforms implemented in Myanmar under the ill-fated civilian government of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. These reforms, designed both to turn around Myanmar's dire economy and lay the economic foundations for democracy, were brought to a dramatic end following the military coup in Myanmar in February 2021. Written by one of Suu Kyi's key economic advisors who was imprisoned alongside her in the wake of the coup, Best Laid Plans explores the nature of the reforms, the resistance they inspired, and the events that brought this all-too brief era of change to its catastrophic conclusion.

Dynamic Programming
Dynamic programming (DP) is a sub-field of optimization concerned with sequential decision making over time. The essential ideas of DP have been adopted in many applications, from robotics and AI to the sequencing of DNA. It is used around the world to control aircraft, route shipping, test products, recommend information on media platforms and solve major research problems. Dynamic Programming: Finite States treats the theory of dynamic programming and its applications in economics, finance, and operations research. It contains classical results on dynamic programming as well as extensions created by researchers and practitioners as they wrestle with formulating and solving dynamic models that can explain patterns observed in data. Adopting an abstract framework that provides great generality, this book facilitates rapid progress to the research frontier by combining rigorous theory with numerous applications, many solved exercises, and detailed open-source computer code.
Money, Warfare and Power in the Ancient World
Money, Warfare and Power in the Ancient World offers twelve papers analysing the processes, consequences and problems involved in the monetization of warfare and its connection to political power in antiquity. The contributions explore not only how powerful men and states used money and coinage to achieve their aims, but how these aims and methods had often already been shaped by the medium of coined money - typically with unintended consequences. These complex relationships between money, warfare and political power - both personal and collective - are explored across different cultures and socio-political systems around the ancient Mediterranean, ranging from Pharaonic Egypt to Late Antique Europe. This volume is also a tribute to the life and impact of Professor Matthew Trundle, an inspiring teacher and scholar, who was devoted to promoting the discipline of Classics in New Zealand and beyond. At the time of his death, he was writing a book on the wider importance of money in the Greek world. A central piece of this research is incorporated into this volume, completed by one of his former students, Christopher De Lisle. Additionally, Trundle had situated himself at the centre of a wide-ranging conversation on the nature of money and power in antiquity. The contributions of scholars of ancient monetization in this volume bring together many of the threads of those conversions, further advancing a field which Matthew Trundle had worked so tirelessly to promote.

Money in the Dutch Republic
The Dutch Republic was an important hub in the early modern world-economy, a place where hundreds of monies were used alongside each other. Sebastian Felten explores regional, European and global circuits of exchange by analysing everyday practices in Dutch cities and villages in the period 1600-1850. He reveals how for peasants and craftsmen, stewards and churchmen, merchants and metallurgists, money was an everyday social technology that helped them to carve out a livelihood. With vivid examples of accounting and assaying practices, Felten offers a key to understanding the internal logic of early modern money. This book uses new archival evidence and an approach informed by the history of technology to show how plural currencies gave early modern users considerable agency. It explores how the move to uniform national currency limited this agency in the nineteenth century and thus helps us make sense of the new plurality of payments systems today.

Carbon Taxes
State and local governments in the United States are evaluating a wide range of policies to reduce carbon emissions, including, in some instances, carbon taxes, which have existed internationally for nearly 20 years. This report reviews existing carbon tax policies both internationally and in the United States. It also analyzes carbon policy design and effectiveness. Design considerations include which sectors to tax, where to set the tax rate, how to use tax revenues, what the impact will be on consumers, and how to ensure emissions reduction goals are achieved. Emission reductions that are due to carbon taxes can be difficult to measure, though some jurisdictions have quantified reductions in overall emissions and other jurisdictions have examined impacts that are due to programs funded by carbon tax revenues.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Great Wealth Poor Health
Heart disease, cancer, diabetes metabolic syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, obesity - the diseases of western civilisation. What's gone wrong? The Industrial Revolution and our staggering technological and economic development have provided us with unprecedented amounts of food, but is it any good? Renowned nutrition specialist David Farrell is convinced that much of it is not. Evolutionary, we are much the same hominid as our ancestors who first strode the plains of Africa, spear in hand. Our abundant but deficient diet (insufficient roughage, omega-3 fats, too much salt) is inconsistent with our evolutionary heritage.In this common sense and easy-to-ready treatise, David explains where we have gone wrong, and how we can get back on the right track. We have developed marvellously efficient agricultural techniques, such as factory farming of animals and genetically-engineered crops, but do they produce unhealthful, deficient food? Using a few simple dietary changes suggested by David Farrell, we can adapt our modern diet to reclaim the good health benefits enjoyed by our fit forebears.
Understandable Economics
Winner of Axiom Business Book Award's 2023 Bronze Medal for Economics Incomes are stagnating, middle-class jobs are disappearing, economic growth is slowing, and the meager gains are mostly going to those who are already wealthy. More Americans than ever are frustrated by the direction in which we are headed. Understandable Economics aims to replace this frustration with a practical understanding of our economy and empower readers to identify and advocate for a better approach to the problems we face. In this entertaining and informative guide, author Howard Yaruss breaks down our economic system in a straightforward way, avoiding jargon, formulas, graphs, and other technical material so common in books on this subject. Instead, he creates a compelling and comprehensive picture of our economy using accessible analogies, real-world observations, and entertaining anecdotes. Understandable Economics will enable readers to answer questions such as: Why is inequality soaring and what can we do about it? Do tax cuts for the wealthy create jobs or just create more inequality? Where does money come from, why does it have value, and who controls it? What does the Fed do and how does it affect our lives? Could alternative currencies like Bitcoin replace the dollar? Is our national debt a threat? Why do so many people believe free trade is good if it causes some people to lose jobs? Why does the economy regularly turn down and how can we get it back on track? ... and many more. Understandable Economics provides the context, tools and foundational knowledge readers need to thoroughly understand our economy, determine which policies would work best, and champion those policies effectively.

Financial Support-Bargaining and the Anatomy of Four Major Crises
This book takes a detailed look at four major financial crises--the twin crises of the South Sea Bubble in Britain and the Mississippi Bubble in France in 1720; the Great Crash of 1929 and the subsequent Great Depression; and the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-9. It traces the evolution and causes of the crises by reference to a theory of support-bargaining and money-bargaining, set out in earlier work, but reintroduced here with specific reference to financial crises. Two early chapters focus on theoretical issues. The work of prominent theorists, including John Law and J. M. Keynes, is evaluated. A fundamental problem of neoclassical theory is its failure to accommodate time disparities, and consequent credit requirements, in economic transactions. This has necessitated theoretical separation of a 'real economy' from financial markets. The separation renders neoclassical economists blind to financial services, and hence to the dynamics of financial crises. In support-bargaining and money-bargaining, the 'real economy' and financial services are seamlessly linked. The book shows how the theory of support-bargaining and money-bargaining provides a clear and consistent explanation of the incidence of financial crises. Since financial crises are not exceptional events, the wider aim of the book is to convince social scientists that, in explaining financial crises, the theory of support-bargaining and money-bargaining provides also a superior explanation of the functioning of economies and societies in quieter times. It will appeal particularly to those many economists who find the prevalent neoclassical model of economic transactions inconsistent with the observable functioning of economies.

No More Work
For centuries we've believed that work was where you learned discipline, initiative, honesty, self-reliance--in a word, character. A job was also, and not incidentally, the source of your income: if you didn't work, you didn't eat, or else you must be stealing from someone. According to such pieties, if you truly worked hard, you could earn your way and maybe even make something of yourself. In recent decades, through everyday experience, these beliefs have proven spectacularly false. Here, James Livingston explains why Americans still cling to work as a solution rather than a problem, resulting in a witty, stirring denunciation of the way we have always thought about why we labor. No More Work exhorts us to imagine a new way of finding meaning, character, and sustenance beyond our workaday world.
Freedom First
In "Freedom First," finance professor Donald R. Chambers delivers 119 thought-provoking essays that challenge conventional wisdom about economics, liberty, and government intervention. Drawing from his 36 years of teaching and research experience, Chambers presents accessible arguments for how free markets and individual liberty create prosperity and peace, while government overreach and centralized planning lead to inefficiency and decline. From "The Tragedy of the Commons" to "Prices as an Information Freeway," these concise readings illuminate fundamental economic principles through everyday examples and historical perspectives. Chambers explores how market prices communicate complex information, why technological innovation flourishes in free societies, and how well-intentioned government policies often produce unintended negative consequences. Written with clarity and conviction, Chambers tackles contemporary issues like minimum wage laws, healthcare policy, and environmental protection through a libertarian lens that prioritizes individual rights and voluntary cooperation. He argues that many social problems stem not from too little government but from misguided interventions that undermine natural market forces. Whether examining the folly of "buying local," the wisdom of allowing market prices to guide decisions, or the danger of identity politics, Chambers makes a compelling case for liberty as the bedrock of human flourishing. Perfect for readers seeking intellectual ammunition against expanding government control of economic life.

Managerial Economics
If you have good economic principles, then more than likely, you're making good business decisions. Although economics is sometimes dismissed as a discourse of practical relevance to only a relatively small circle of academicians and policy analysts who call themselves economists, sound economic reasoning benefits any manager of a business, whether they are involved with production and operations, marketing, finance, or corporate strategy. This highly respected text will help you and any business manager with managerial economics, which is the application of microeconomics to business decisions. Inside, you'll learn about the key relationships between price, quantity, cost, revenue, and profit, which are detailed for an individual firm in the form of simple conceptual models. The book includes key elements from the economics of consumer demand and the economics of production. It also discusses economic motivations for expanding a business and contributions from economics for improved organization of large firms, as well as market price-quantity equilibrium, competitive behavior, and the role of market structure on market equilibrium and competition. It concludes by considering market regulation in terms of the generic problems that create the need for regulation and possible remedies for those problems.

Struggle, Reform, Boom and Bust
Since Papua New Guinea's independence in 1975, economic growth has been slow but volatile, with major changes in economic structure and policies, as well as in politics and governance.This economic history, written to commemorate the fiftieth year of independence and the first to be produced in some 15 years, divides the half century since independence into four periods: the relative stability but also early struggles of the seventies and eighties; the crises and reforms of the nineties; the boom of the 2000s; and the quiet bust of the 2010s. Two chapters cover each period's major economic, policy, institutional and political developments. The final three chapters provide an overall assessment of economic performance and policies since independence and link them with its politics and institutions.The book combines painstaking documentation with original analysis to reveal both the strengths and weaknesses of the PNG economy, and theorises that the country's hyper-politics and insecurity have combined to produce, and are reinforced by, a weak but stable state, and low and increasingly resource-dependent growth.Data-driven, frank, insightful and engaging, Struggle, Reform, Boom and Bust is written by an expert team of economists from the University of Papua New Guinea and The Australian National University under the leadership of Professor Stephen Howes, Director of the ANU Development Policy Centre. It is an essential resource for anyone interested in the economy of Papua New Guinea, as well as an important contribution to the literature on the challenges and institutional determinants of post-colonial development.

Human Origins and Evolution in a Malthusian Economy
This book develops an economic theory of the entirety of human evolution, presenting a Malthusian growth-theoretic framework to explore the origins of the human species and the development of human society across the prehistoric, agricultural, industrial and modern eras.Early members of our genus Homo emerged over 2 million years ago, gradually evolving into Homo sapiens about 300,000 years ago. During most of their existence, early modern humans were hunter-gatherers and shared this planet with archaic humans, such as Neanderthals and Denisovans. So, how did Homo sapiens emerge? Why did other human species become extinct while early modern humans survived? Why do modern humans still carry DNA from archaic humans? What caused the transition of human society from hunter-gatherer tribes to agricultural settlements and the subsequent development from an agricultural economy to an industrial economy? And how has education affected the emergence of innovation and given rise to the progression from pre-industrial stagnation to economic growth in the modern era? By addressing these fundamental questions through an economic lens, the book reveals the manifold influences that have shaped the unique trajectory of our species.
Economics History on Barter System
Dive into the fascinating world of barter, where goods and trust shaped economies long before coins and cash! Economic History on Barter System takes you on a journey through time, exploring how humans traded without money. This book unpacks the barter system from its earliest roots to modern-day swaps. It starts with the basics: defining barter, its challenges, and how thinkers like Adam Smith and Karl Marx viewed it. You'll dig into prehistoric exchanges, from shells to stones, and see how they built social bonds. The book covers ancient civilizations like Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley, where temples and standardized weights made trade hum. It also dives into indigenous systems across North America, Africa, and Oceania, showing how barter intertwined with culture and politics. You'll explore the Silk Road's mix of barter and coins, colonial trade's harsh realities, and barter's resurgence in crises like Weimar Germany or modern Venezuela. Modern twists-like corporate barter and government countertrade-round out the story. Each chapter blends archaeology, anthropology, and economics to reveal barter's complexity. What sets this book apart? It's not just a history-it's a fresh lens on barter's role in human society. Unlike other books that skim the surface or focus only on money's rise, this one dives deep into barter's nuances. It challenges myths, like the "double coincidence of wants," with evidence from real-world practices. It bridges disciplines, weaving together archaeological finds, ethnographic stories, and economic theory. You'll find unique insights, like how gift economies and debt shaped trade, or how trust and community networks made barter work. No other book offers this blend of depth, global scope, and modern relevance. Whether you're a history buff, an economics nerd, or just curious about how people swapped stuff, this book delivers a rich, engaging read that flips the script on what you thought you knew about trade. Economic History on Barter System is perfect for anyone wanting to understand the roots of exchange. It's packed with stories-from ancient traders to crisis survivors-that show barter's resilience and flaws. You'll see how social ties, not just goods, drove economies. The book also connects past to present, exploring how barter still thrives in business and global deals. It's written in clear, lively prose, making complex ideas accessible. With detailed research and a global perspective, it fills gaps left by narrower economic histories. You'll come away with a new appreciation for how humans built economies on trust, ingenuity, and swap.

The Domestic Savings Shortfall in Sub-Saharan Africa
This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 IGO licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. Domestic Savings Shortfall in Sub-Saharan Africa aims to increase knowledge about the key drivers of domestic saving rates in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), as well as whether alternative approaches, such as pension funds or fintech, could provide new solutions to increase domestic savings. The book also examines the lessons learnt from the experiences so far in different countries in SSA, and what can SSA learn from the experience of other regions which have been more successful in raising savings rates. The book consists of two parts: thematic studies and country studies. The thematic studies examine the implications of new developments in African financial markets on savings behaviour, the role of sovereign wealth funds, pensions, and capital markets in augmenting savings and in economic development, the challenges of the debt crisis in Africa, the implications of financial liberalization for private saving in SSA, and lessons on how to increase savings rates from East and South Asia. The four country studies-Tanzania, Cameroon, and Ghana-examine the determinants of domestic savings. The countries were selected based on criteria that capture the diversity of savings performance in SSA. Each case study uses a common conceptual framework drawn from the life-cycle theory of savings and the same empirical methods to test for the determinants of savings using time-series data for the country in question. The findings of the book provide clear recommendations on how to increase savings in Sub-Saharan Africa.
