Surviving the Future is a story drawn from the fertile ground of the late David Fleming's extraordinary 'Lean Logic: A Dictionary for the Future and How to Survive It'. That hardback consists of four hundred and four interlinked dictionary entries, inviting readers to choose their own path through its radical vision. Recognizing that Lean Logic's sheer size and unusual structure can be daunting, Fleming's long-time collaborator Shaun Chamberlin has selected and edited one of these potential narratives to create Surviving the Future. The content, rare insights, and uniquely enjoyable writing style remain Fleming's, but are presented here at a more accessible paperback-length and in conventional read-it-front-to-back format
The book’s central theme is to develop a new theory of speculative capital related to other forms of capital, the world market, and the state.

Dies zu erklären ist Aufgabe der Wirtschaftstheorie. Welche Theorien dabei im Vordergrund stehen, hat konkrete Folgen: Theorien, die in der Öffentlichkeit und in der Politik dominant sind, haben direkten Einfluss auf das Wirtschaftssystem selbst. Denn sie bestimmen mit, was als legitim und selbstverständlich gilt, welche Handlungsspielräume wirtschaftlich und politisch Mächtigen eingeräumt werden, welche Maßnahmen von der Politik ergriffen und welche Optionen abgelehnt werden.
Traditionally, economists have attributed consistency and rational calculation to the action of ‘economic man’. In a powerful challenge to orthodox thinking, Geoffrey Hodgson maintains that social institutions play a central and essential role in molding preferences and guiding action: institutions are regarded as enabling action rather than merely providing constraints.

It has also offered a clearer recognition of many unresolved problems.

Though apparently siblings from the same family, New Keynesianism and Post-Keynesianism are completely different schools of economic thought. As to why and in what regard exactly, that is what this book is all about. While the former is the official label of the current mainstream in economic research and teaching (rather than neoclassic economics, which would be more apt a term), the latter tries to preserve the original thinking of John Maynard Keynes, but also additional ideas and concepts of all those building on his work.
Beyond Neoclassical Economics is a remarkable new introduction to the main heterodox schools of economic thought which examines their main concepts and their critiques of mainstream theory.

Angesichts der Ereignisstürme im gegenwärtigen Finanzgeschäft widmet sich Joseph Vogl den Wahrnehmungsweisen, Theorien und Problemlagen dessen, was man mit gutem Grund immer noch Kapitalismus nennen muss. Gerade Finanzmärkte gelten als das Marktgeschehen schlechthin: Unbelastet von den Beschwernissen der Produktion sind sie – für die herrschende ökonomische Doktrin – Schauplätze eines perfekten Wettbewerbs und idealer wirtschaftlicher Ausgleichprozesse: ein segensreiches Zusammenspiel von gewinnorientierten und also ebenso rationalen wie zuverlässigen Akteuren.

Nobel laureate Richard H. Thaler has spent his career studying the radical notion that the central agents in the economy are humans--predictable, error-prone individuals. Misbehaving is his arresting, frequently hilarious account of the struggle to bring an academic discipline back down to earth--and change the way we think about economics, ourselves, and our world.
