With the fall of the Berlin Wall, one economic model emerged triumphant. Capitalism - spanning a spectrum from laissez-faire to authoritarian - shapes the market economies of all the wealthiest and fastest-growing nations. The trouble is cracking its shiny veneer. In the US, economic growth is no longer matched by economic development. Wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few, natural resources are exploited for short-term profits, and good jobs are hard to find.

The Plea of Innocence offers a fundamental reform of the adversarial system: plausibly innocent people may now plead innocent and require the government to search for exonerating facts; in return, they will be required to waive their right to remain silent, speak to government agents, and participate in a search for truth. While almost all the participants within the system hope that only guilty people will be convicted, the unfortunate reality is that innocent people are convicted and imprisoned at an alarming rate.

On January 22, 1973, the United States Supreme Court released two interlocked abortion decisions overturning the laws of all the individual states. Only one of the decisions, Roe v. Wade, tends to get much media attention, and it is popularly said that it grants a "woman's right to choose". But Justice Blackmun is in several places very adamant: Though it had been explicitly sought, he was not granting to women the "right to choose". In Doe v. Bolton, the second and often unexamined companion decision, Blackmun is explicit. The right he is granting is to the doctor.

A wake-up call for middle class Americans who feel trapped in a post-crisis economic slump, The Unfair Trade is a riveting exposé of the vast global financial system whose flaws are the source of our economic malaise. Our livelihoods are now beholden to the workings of its imbalances and inequities. The trillions of dollars that make up the flow of international finance - money often steered away from people who deserve it most - have not just undermined the lives of working and middle class Americans.

A look at the prevalence of GMOs in American food compared to other countries.

Technological innovation is deeply woven into the fabric of American culture, and is no less a basic feature of American health care. Medical technology saves lives and relieves suffering, and is enormously popular with the public, profitable for doctors, and a source of great wealth for industry. Yet its costs are rising at a dangerously unsustainable rate. The control of technology costs poses a terrible ethical and policy dilemma. How can we deny people what they may need to live and flourish?

Resting on a convincing body of evidence that violence is not a necessary component of conflict among states and between states and non-state actors, World Beyond War asserts that war itself can be ended. We humans have lived without war for most of our existence and most people live without war most of the time. Warfare arose about 10,000 years ago (only five percent of our existence as Homo Sapiens) and spawned a vicious cycle as peoples, fearing attack by militarized states, found it necessary to imitate them.

American consumers demand choice. The assortment of products in American stores is beyond belief to anyone from the Third World. So why are only two choices for anything political acceptable to Americans? It seems totally illogical. It reminds me of the illogical change in behavior of an addict. These are people who are normal in seemingly every way yet give up everything and everyone in their lives for a drug which is a short-term high, and self-destructive. How can that be? Research has convinced me it's more than coincidence.

A Tale of Two Economies details the ongoing battle between the material and the monetary economies. The good news is that the development of modern technology in our material economy has us on the brink of prosperity. The bad news is that a turf war over the money supply in our monetary economy is destroying our prospects for enjoying this success. Thus, we have rampant inflation and a growing gap between the rich and the poor today.

The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 20211 (CAA) requires the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) to submit annually for seven years a report focused on cybersecurity to Congress. The CAA calls for a description of measures the Board has undertaken to strengthen cybersecurity within the financial services sector and with respect to the Board’s functions as a regulator, including the supervision and regulation of financial institutions and third-party service providers.

The internet is a network of physical cables and connections, a web of wires enmeshing the world, linking huge data centres to one another and eventually to us. All are owned by someone, financed by someone, regulated by someone. We refer to the internet as abstract from reality. By doing so, we obscure where the real power lies. In this powerful and necessary book, James Ball sets out on a global journey into the inner workings of the system.

In this stunning new story of political economy, author Eric Robert Morse examines why the modern system has become so unwieldy and explains what must be done to correct it.

Werden wir gut regiert? Oder bleibt die Politik hinter ihren Möglichkeiten zurück? Und wenn das so ist - woran liegt das? Gibt es Techniken guten Regierens? In seinem Bestseller beschreibt Thilo Sarrazin die Mechaniken von Politik, ihre typischen Fehler und die Gründe für den Erfolg oder Misserfolg von Gesellschaften. Er verdeutlicht, warum die Träume von einer besseren Gesellschaft oft nichts Gutes hervorgebracht haben. Von hier schlägt er den Bogen zu den Fehlern der aktuellen deutschen Politik, von der Einwanderung bis zur Energiewende.

जाति और पितृसत्ता ई.वी. रामासामी नायकर 'पेरियार' के चिन्तन, लेखन और संघर्षों की केन्द्रीय धुरी रही है। उनकी दृढ़ मान्यता थी कि इन दोनों के विनाश के बिना किसी आधुनिक समाज का निर्माण नहीं किया जा सकता है। जाति और पितृसत्ता के सम्बन्ध में पेरियार क्या सोचते थे और क्यों वे इसके विनाश को आधुनिक भारत के निर्माण के लिए अपरिहार्य एवं अनिवार्य मानते थे? इन प्रश्नों का हिन्दी में एक मुकम्मल जवाब पहली बार यह किताब देती है।ऑडियो में यह किताब साहित्य प्रेमियों के लिए उपहार है, जहाँ वो एक तरफ़ आवाज़ के जादू में बंधते चले जाते हैं, वहीं दूसरी तरफ़ समाज को देखने का एक नज़रिया भी उन्हें हासिल होता है।
