Meme Wars
Making sense of economists and their world in a persuasive and entertaining style, Arjo Klamer, shows that economics is as much about how people interact as it is about the models, the mathematics, the econometrics, the theories and the ideas that come from the enormous aggregate of economics literature. Knowing and understanding economics requires both bookwork and mingling with other economists.
Speaking of Economics

The Routledge Handbook of Heterodox Economics
In a capitalist system, consumers, investors, and corporations orient their activities toward a future that contains opportunities and risks. How actors assess uncertainty is a problem that economists have tried to solve through general equilibrium and rational expectations theory. Powerful as these analytical tools are, they underestimate the future's unknowability by assuming that markets, in the aggregate, correctly forecast what is to come.

Evolutionary Economics and Environmental Policy
Die Internationale Politische Ökonomie (IPÖ) hat sich seit den 1970er Jahren zu einem lebhaften Forschungszweig entwickelt. Im Forschungs- und Diskussionsprozess treffen nicht nur Wissenschaftler aus unterschiedlichen Theorietraditionen und disziplinären Kontexten aufeinander, wie z.B. aus der Ökonomie, Politikwissenschaft, Geschichte oder Geographie.
Internationale Politische Ökonomie
Die Vorstellung, Ungewissheit durch Wissenschaft und Planung in Gewissheit transformieren zu können, wird zunehmend brüchig und zum Hemmnis für Innovation. Doch wie ist es möglich, Handlungsfähigkeit auch unter Bedingungen von Ungewissheit aufrechtzuerhalten oder gar weiterzuentwickeln? In diesem Buch werden neue Ansätze zur Bewältigung und Nutzung von Ungewissheit vorgestellt.
Management von Ungewissheit

The Next Revolution
Unter der Fragestellung "Wie weiter mit ...?" werden die Werke von acht der wichtigsten Geistes- und Gesellschaftswissenschaftler des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts neu und wieder gelesen. Können, sollen oder müssen wir deren Blick auf soziale Fragen und Probleme heute noch teilen? Karl Marx ist heute der weltweit am meisten gelesene Klassiker.
Wie weiter mit Karl Marx?
For many, Thomas Carlyle's put-down of economics as "the dismal science" rings true--especially in the aftermath of the crash of 2008. But Diane Coyle argues that economics today is more soulful than dismal, a more practical and human science than ever before. The Soulful Science describes the remarkable creative renaissance in economics, how economic thinking is being applied to the paradoxes of everyday life.
The Soulful Science
This book arose from our conviction that the NNS-DSGE approach to the analysis of aggregate market outcomes is fundamentally flawed. The practice of overcoming the SMD result by recurring to a fictitious RA leads to insurmountable methodological problems and lies at the root of DSGE models’ failure to satisfactorily explain real world features.
Macroeconomics from the Bottom-up
Economics is extremely sick. It is so locked in its past that nearly all of its introductory textbooks are modelled on one that appeared in 1948. The discipline cannot continue in its autistic state much longer.
Real World Economics
This brilliantly concise book is a classic introduction to Marx’s key work, Capital. In print now for over a quarter of a century, and previously translated into many languages, the new edition has been fully revised and updated, making it an ideal modern introduction to one of the most important texts in political economy.
'Marx's Capital'
"Es ist einfacher geworden, sich das Ende der Welt vorzustellen als das Ende des Kapitalismus." Mark Fisher greift in diesem Buch den widersprüchlichen Zeitgeist der gegenwärtigen kapitalistischen Gesellschaft auf.
Kapitalistischer Realismus ohne Alternative?
[Schumpeters Begriff der "Schöpferischen Zerstörung" ist spätestens durch die Innovationen im Silicon Valley in aller Munde. Aber was hat es damit genau auf sich? Und wie kann Schumpeters Begriff für eine Gesellschaftstheorie über rein ökonomische Phänomene fruchtbar gemacht werden?, eingefügt von J.S.]
Schöpferische Zerstörung und der Wandel des Unternehmertums
The leading edges of economic thinking in the early 21st century are marked by a nascent pluralism - a positive valuing of difference and complexity - regarding the nature and evolution of human behaviour and economic organization. Economic Pluralism brings these pluralist sensibilities to the fore.
Economic Pluralism
Microeconomics in Context lays out the principles of microeconomics in a manner that is thorough, up to date, and relevant to students. Like its counterpart, Macroeconomics in Context, the book is uniquely attuned to economic realities. The "in Context" books offer affordability, accessible presentation, and engaging coverage of current policy issues from economic inequality and global climate change to taxes.
Microeconomics in Context
Der zentrale Stellenwert, den Wirtschaftswachstum in den Wirtschaftswissenschaften, aber auch in Medien, Politik und der Öffentlichkeit einnimmt, wird angesichts der massiven Überschreitung ökologischer Grenzen sowie des schwindenden Zusammenhangs von Wirtschaftswachstum und Lebensqualität zunehmend infrage gestellt.
Perspektiven einer Wirtschaft ohne Wachstum
John Maurice Clark’s article “The Changing Basis of Economic Responsibility,“ published in the Journal of Political Economy, is the topical starting point for all scholars interested in economic responsibility and responsible economic action.
Economic Responsibility
John Harvey's accessible book provides a non-technical yet rigorous introduction to various schools of thought in economics. Premised on the idea that economic thinking has been stunted by the almost complete rejection of anything outside the mainstream, the author hopes that this volume will open readers' minds and lead them in new and productive directions.
Contending Perspectives in Economics
Auf den ersten Blick haben Wasser und Wissen, Erbgut und Atmosphäre nichts gemeinsam. Was sie aber eint, ist, dass sie zum Nötigsten für ein menschliches Leben gehören. Doch sie gehen der Gesellschaft immer mehr verloren, weil sie privatisiert und der allgemeinen Verfügung entzogen, missbraucht oder unbezahlbar werden.
Wem gehört die Welt?
Economic theory is currently at a crossroads, where many leading mainstream economists are calling for a more realistic and practical orientation for economic science. Indeed, many are suggesting that economics should be reconstructed on evolutionary lines.
This book is about the application to economics of evolutionary ideas from biology.

Economics and Evolution
Was garantiert uns Wohlstand und sozialen Frieden? Wie ein Mantra kommt die Antwort aus Politik und Wirtschaft: Wachstum, Wachstum, Wachstum! Aber dürfen wir das noch glauben angesichts der Verwerfungen der jüngsten Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrisen - und angesichts der ökologischen Schäden, die unser Wirtschaften produziert?
Wohlstand ohne Wachstum
Die "Allgemeine Theorie der Beschäftigung, des Zinses und des Geldes" gilt als das Hauptwerk des britischen Ökonomen John Maynard Keynes. Das Werk erschien 1936 und stellte die bis dahin dominierende klassische ökonomische Theorie in Frage.
Allgemeine Theorie der Beschäftigung, des Zinses und des Geldes
This thoroughly revised and updated second edition provides a comprehensive guide to Post Keynesian methodology, theory and policy prescriptions. The Companion reflects the challenges posed by the global financial crisis that began in 2008 and by the consolidation of the New Neoclassical Synthesis in macroeconomic theory.
The Elgar Companion to Post Keynesian Economics
The economic crisis is also a crisis for economic theory. Most analyses of the evolution of the crisis invoke three themes, contagion, networks and trust, yet none of these play a major role in standard macroeconomic models. What is needed is a theory in which these aspects are central.
Complex Economics
Mainstream economic theory has been increasingly questioned following the recent global financial crisis. Marc Lavoie shows how post-Keynesian theory can function as a coherent substitute by focusing on realistic assumptions and integrating the financial and real sides of the economy.
Post-Keynesian Economics
Challenging the Mainstream in the Twentieth Century Economics is a contested academic discipline between neoclassical economics and a collection of alternative approaches such as Marxism radical economics Institutional economics Post Keynesian economics and others that can collectively be called heterodox economics Because of the dominance of neoclassical economics the existence …
A History of Heterodox Economics
Drei Dinge wissen wir: Der Kapitalismus hat den Feudalismus abgelöst; seither durchlief er zyklische Tiefs, spätestens seit 2008 stottert der Motor. Was wir nicht wissen: Erleben wir eine der üblichen Krisen oder den Anbruch einer postkapitalistischen Ordnung?
Postkapitalismus
