Seit Beginn der globalen Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrise 2007 steht auch die akademische Disziplin der Ökonomie in der Kritik.

Welche Ökonomie? Kapeller, Jakob; Pühringer, Stephan; Hirte, Katrin; Ötsch, Walter Metropolis Noneconomists often think that economists' approach to race is almost exclusively one of laissez-faire. Racism, Liberalism, and Economics argues that economists' ideas are more complicated. 2009 Level: mittel Race, Liberalism, And Economics Colander, David; Prasch, Robert E.; Shetz, Falguni A. University of Michigan Press Alvin Roth and Lloyd Shapely won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for their work on market design back in 2012, but it is a field that is still underrepresented in economics education.

By bringing to light delightful mind-teasers, philosophical questions and intriguing politics in mainstream economics, it promises to enliven an otherwise dry course whilst inspiring students to do well. 1998 Level: leicht Foundations of Economics Yanis Varoufakis Psychology Press Viele Bereiche der Gesellschaft, die früher eigenen Regeln gefolgt sind, haben sich einer wirtschaftlichen Effizienzlogik unterworfen. Die Ökonomik hat damit den Status einer gesellschaftlichen Leitwissenschaft errungen. Das vorliegende Buch beschreibt und kritisiert die Transformation der Ökonomik in eine Wissenschaft von „dem Markt“ (in der Einzahl). 2018 Level: mittel Mythos Markt. Mythos Neoklassik Walter Ötsch Metropolis Verlag 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. 2016 Level: mittel Imagined Futures Jens Beckert Harvard University Press "Stabilise, liberalise and privatise" has, since the debt crisis of the early 1980s, been the mantra chanted at developing countries by international financial institutions, donor countries and newspaper columnists with quasi-religious conviction. 2007 Level: mittel The Resistible Rise of Market Fundamentalism Richard Kozul-Wright, Paul Rayment Zed Books Three dominant forces worldwide are driving change today in our financial markets: competition, technology and regulation.

Schwartz, John Aidan Byrne, Gretchen Schnee Springer In diesem klug auf Fakten aufgebauten Buch zeigt Vandana Shiva, wie eine kleine Gruppe superreicher Einzelpersonen, Stiftungen und Investmentfirmen die Kontrolle über unsere Lebensmittelversorgung, unser Informationssystem, unser Gesundheitswesen und unsere Demokratien immer weiter ausbaut.

Um den Antrieb und die Möglichkeit zur Verfolgung dieses Wachstumspfads zu erklären, muss die Dynamik des Geldes, der Energie und der menschlichen Imagination deutlicher herausgestellt werden als es in der konventionellen ökonomischen Theorie der Fall ist. 2013 Level: mittel Die Wachstumsspirale Hans Christoph Binswanger Metropolis Verlag 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.

Rather than separating off the financial world from the rest of the economy, financial equilibrium is studied as an extension of economic equilibrium. The course also gives a picture of the kind of thinking and analysis done by hedge funds. 2009 Level: leicht Financial Theory John Geanakoplos Yale University Is or has economics ever been the imperial social science?
