Foundational economy is the most important concept you have never heard of. The foundational encompasses material utilities like water, gas and electricity and providential services like education, health and care. Taken together, these services matter economically and politically because they are the collectively consumed infrastructure of everyday life, the basis of civilization and should be citizen rights.
Foundational Economy
This book sets out to encourage a debate about the role that economic theory and philosophy of economics can play. A good part of economics consists of theoretical developments which describe completely imaginary worlds and have no connections to actual market economies
A Philosophical Framework for Rethinking Theoretical Economics and Philosophy of Economics
Until the end of the early 1970s, from a history of economic thought perspective, the mainstream in economics was pluralist, but once neoclassical economics became totally dominant it claimed the mainstream as its own. Since then, alternative views and schools of economics increasingly became minorities in the discipline and were considered 'heterodox'.
Reclaiming Pluralism in Economics
Mehr Wachstum, mehr Arbeit, mehr Wohlstand, lautet die ökonomische Erfolgsformel der Wachstumsprediger. Diese ist für den Volkswirtschaftler Niko Paech keine Lösung für die Zukunft. In seinem Buch entwickelt er ein Gegenmodell: eine Postwachstumsökonomie... Reduktion lautet also das Gestaltungsprinzip einer Postwachstumsökonomie.
Befreiung vom Überfluss
Die herrschende Wirtschaftskrise ist auch eine Krise der herrschenden Wirtschaftslehre. Diese hat durch Jahre hindurch „den freien Markt“ propagiert und mitgeholfen, eine wirksame Regulierung der Kapital- und Geldmärkte zu verhindern. Ein unregulierter Markt, so wurde gesagt, würde sich von selbst regulieren, effizient arbeiten und optimale Ergebnisse zum Wohle aller hervorbringen.
Mythos Markt

Commons - die Welt gehört uns allen! Die nicht enden wollende globale Finanzkrise zeigt: Markt und Staat haben versagt. Deshalb verwundert es nicht, dass die Commons, die Idee der gemeinschaftlichen Organisation und Nutzung von Gemeingütern und Ressourcen, starken Zuspruch erfahren - nicht erst seit dem Wirtschaftsnobelpreis für Elinor Ostrom.

How do Airbnb and short-term rentals affect housing and communities? Locating the origins and success of Airbnb in the conditions wrought by the 2008 financial crisis, the authors bring together a diverse body of literature and construct case studies of cities in the US, Australia and Germany to examine the struggles of local authorities to protect their housing and neighborhoods from the increasing professionalization and commercialization of Airbnb.
Airbnb, Short-term Rentals and the Future of Housing
This book provides a new methodological approach to money and macroeconomics. Realizing that the abstract equilibrium models lacked descriptions of fundamental issues of a modern monetary economy, the focus of this book lies on the (stylized) balance sheets of the main actors. Money, after all, is born on the balance sheets of the central bank or commercial bank.

With a focus on Chile, Pinochet’s Economic Accomplices: An Unequal Country byForce uses theoretical arguments and empirical studies to argue that focusing onthe behavior of economic actors of the dictatorship is crucial to achieve basic objectivesin terms of justice, memory, reparation, and non-repetition measures.

"Heterodox economics can provide a more complete and robust explanation of economic realities than orthodox (or mainstream) economics. Contemporary Issues in Heterodox Economics: Implications for Theory and Policy Action argues that this greater explanatory power gives heterodox economics the ability to illuminate appropriate policy for the major crises of our time, as well as proffer the basis for a more rounded, pluralist approach to economic theory.

Despite some diversification modern economics still attracts a great deal of criticism. This is largely due to highly unrealistic assumptions underpinning economic theory, explanatory failure, poor policy framing, and a dubious focus on prediction. Many argue that flaws continue to owe much of their shortcomings to neoclassical economics.
What is Neoclassical Economics?
Im kapitalistischen Wirtschaftssystem richten Konsumenten, Investoren und Unternehmerinnen ihr Handeln auf die Zukunft aus. Diese birgt Chancen und Risiken, ist aber vor allem eines: ungewiss.

Since 2007, central banks of industrialized countries have counteracted financial instability, recession, and deflationary risks with unprecedented monetary policy operations. While generally regarded as successful, these measures also led to an exceptional increase in the size of central bank balance sheets. The book first introduces the subject by explaining monetary policy operations in normal times, including the key instruments (open market operations, standing facilities, reserve requirements, and the collateral framework).
Monetary Policy Operations and the Financial System
New Tools of Economic Dynamics gives an introduction and overview of recently developed methods and tools, most of them developed outside economics, to deal with the qualitative analysis of economic dynamics.

Potts (economics, University of Queensland) proposes evolutionary microeconomics as a synthesis of the collective schools of heterodox economic thought with complex systems theory and graph theory.

Some economic events are so major and unsettling that they “change everything.” Such is the case with the financial crisis that started in the summer of 2007 and is still a drag on the world economy. Yet enough time has now elapsed for economists to consider questions that run deeper than the usual focus on the immediate causes and consequences of the crisis.
Rethinking the Financial Crisis
Mainstream textbooks present economics as an objective science free from value judgements; that settles disputes by testing hypotheses; that applies a pre-determined body of principles; and contains policy prescriptions supported by a consensus of professional opinion.
