Showing titles in Economic Conditions

The global finance system can be regulated to prevent massive credit fraud, tame capitalism, confront the sovereign debt crisis, and move towards investing in the real economy and full employment. "Obamanomics" and American reinvention can lead to a sustained economic recovery but only together with major domestic, European, and global monetary reforms in cooperation with emerging nations.

Imagine a world where technology understands the human condition - a world that values relationships more than diamonds - a place where people earn a living, not from selling, but from compassion. We stand on the threshold of such a world. The door is open.

While some semblance of stability has returned to the financial markets, the economies on which these markets must ultimately depend remain structurally weak, and the path toward sustained growth will be difficult. In order to set the economy on a sounder path, we need to understand the sources of instability that caused the failure of the financial system, rethink established ideas, and challenge the intellectual and moral authority of the institutions that control the world's capital.

Economists and financial wizards William Sterling and Stephen Waite take an in-depth look at how America's baby boomers have transformed the nation's - and the world's - economy, and how that transformation must inevitably - and radically - alter its course as the boomers age. The authors show listeners that there are strategies they can use, both as private individuals and collectively as a nation, to stay ahead of the all-important demographics curve and prosper during the "age wave".

Property carries a great promise: that it will make you rich and set you free. But it is also a weapon, an agent of displacement and exploitation, the currency of kleptocrats and oligarchs. Property is a vivid, far-reaching analysis of our concept of property ownership, from 16th-century feudalism to the present day. Above all, Property asks how we have come to view our homes not as a natural human right, but as investments—and it offers hope for how things could be better, with reform that might enable the social wealth of property to be returned to society.

What these principles are and whence they come to us. "The fact is, we have become crazy over material things. We are looking only at the structure above ground. We are trying to get more smoke from the chimney. We are looking at space instead of service, at profits instead of volume. With our eyes focused on the structure above ground, we have lost sight of those human resources, thrift, imagination, integrity, vision and faith which make the structure possible. I feel that only by the business men can this foundation be strengthened before the inevitable fall comes".

It's become an article of faith that American entrepreneurship is in trouble. The problems are many: lack of capital, too few entrepreneurial immigrants, excessive regulation, an aging population, slowing population growth, and rising student debt. But while experts across the country debate the causes and propose solutions, Scott Shane explains that the data just do not fit. Dismantling each of the most widely accepted theories in turn, he persuasively demonstrates that - while an evolving market is changing the nature of most startups - entrepreneurship is actually alive and well.

La democracia y el capitalismo pueden ser dolorosos, y no siempre te gustan los resultados. Algunos días se gana, pero la mayoría de los días se pierde. Bajo una dictadura, la vida puede ser buena por un tiempo, pero tus antepasados eventualmente morirán de hambre y terminarán en una balsa rumbo a un país capitalista cercano. El marxismo tiene mucho sentido en teoría, pero en la práctica, cada vez que se ha intentado ha fracasado. Esto puede llevar un par de décadas, y el éxito del comunismo requiere una relación parasitaria con un sistema capitalista, ya que tiene que venderse ...

Google fue lo más genial de California desde que se inventó la patineta allí en la década de 1950, ya que tomaron un montón de páginas web desorganizadas que componían Internet y las organizaron con su algoritmo PageRank. En realidad, es una idea sencilla, pero funcionó y cambió la forma en que las personas interactúan con Internet desde 1998. Internet se mueve rápido y Google ha sido transformador en su implementación de Android, servicios en la nube y mucho más desde sus inicios, pero no son Ya no es el caballo más rápido de la carrera. El Departamento de Justicia de EE.UU....

History tends to repeat itself. In economics, past policy often works to help with current Inflationary and Unemployment problems. At the least, economic policy can show what not to do as well as what has worked in the past. This paper deals with the 1990’s effect of Inflation and Unemployment in Canada and serves as a template for Western central banks to use for the future.

La sortie de la crise de la COVID 19 et la reprise abrupte de l'activité économique a causé une montée de l'inflation brusque qui affecte tous les secteurs, à commencer par ceux des matières premières et de l'énergie. Partant de ce constat, cet essai s’attelle à définir et clarifier le concept de l'inflation, ses multiples déclinaisons et la manière dont les États y répondent. L'essai est suivi d'une dizaine d'articles abordant l'inflation tirés des archives du Devoir.

Bread and Circus is a hybrid and palimpsestic memoir-in-verse: it combines poetry, photography and spectral imagining to explore the realities of economic necessity and marginal poverty through a personal lens. Examining the experience of the US urban Black community from a variety of perspectives, it draws heavily on the author’s archival research on Adam Smith, the eighteenth-century Scottish economist, as well as his magnum opus, The Wealth of Nations.

Une plongée sans précédent dans les eaux troubles du "quatrième pouvoir" ! Aude Lancelin, ancienne directrice adjointe de L'Obs et de Marianne, raconte de l'intérieur un système médiatique français à la dérive... et en miroir, une gauche en pleine déliquescence qui a perdu tous ses repères. Un an avant une élection présidentielle, la "numéro deux" du plus célèbre hebdomadaire de la gauche française est brutalement licenciée.

The economic chaos that has created so much destruction of wealth for regular Americans is far from over.

So viel Geopolitik war noch nie, so viel Nachhaltigkeit war noch nie, so viel Technologie war noch nie - Entscheidungsträger in Politik und Unternehmen müssen sich mit neuen globalen Dynamiken auseinandersetzen, um die Wirtschaft wetterfest zu machen gegenüber internationalen Spannungen, fortschreitendendem Klimawandel, gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen und rasanten Innovationszyklen. Katrin Suder und Jan F. Kallmorgen schildern die komplexen politischen Zusammenhänge und geben praktische Handlungsempfehlungen, um die neuen Risiken der 2020er Jahre vorausschauend zu managen.
