An ideal type of a pluralistic book. Instead of arguing for one specific interpretation of a complex phenomenon, the authors present six different views on globalisation. Roberts and Lamp carefully balance the different perspectives, presenting the merits of each. 2021 Level: adelantado Six Faces of Globalization Anthea Roberts, Nicolas Lamp Harvard University Press In this book, Kalyan Sanyal reviews the traditional notion of capitalism and propounds an original theory of capitalist development in the post-colonial context. In order to substantiate his theory, concepts such as primitive accumulation, governmentality and post-colonial capitalist formation are discussed in detail. 2013 Level: debutante Rethinking Capitalist Development Kalyan Sanyal Routledge Improving Decisions About Health Wealth and Happiness Now available Nudge The Final Edition The original edition of the multimillion copy New York Times bestseller by the winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics Richard H Thaler and Cass R Sunstein a revelatory look at how we make decisions for fans … 2009 Level: debutante Nudge Richard H.

Behavioral Economics     Austrian economics focuses on the economic coordination of individuals in a market economy. Austrian economics emphasises individualism, subjectivism, laissez-faire politics, uncertainty and the role of the entrepreneur, amongst others. Austrian Economics     Neoclassical economics focuses on the allocation of scarce resources. Economic analysis is mainly concerned with determining the efficient allocation of resources in order to increase welfare. Neoclassical Economics     Marxian Political Economy focuses on the exploitation of labour by capital. The economy is not conceived as consisting of neutral transactions for exchange and cooperation, but instead as having developed historically out of asymmetric distributions of power, ideology and social conflicts. Marxian Political Economy     Feminist economics focuses on the interdependencies of gender relations and the economy. Care work and the partly non-market mediated reproduction sphere are particularly emphasised by feminist economics. Feminist Economics     Institutional economics focuses on the role of social institutions in terms of laws or contracts, but also those of social norms and patterns of human behaviour that are connected to the social organisation of production, distribution and consumption in the economy. Institutionalist Economics     Post-Keynesians focus on the analysis of capitalist economies, perceived as highly productive, but unstable and conflictive systems. Economic activity is determined by effective demand, which is typically insufficient to generate full employment and full utilisation of capacity. Post-Keynesian Economics     Complexity economics focuses on interactions and interdependencies between individuals and structures in economic systems. Those are systems of organised complexity. High importance is given to the analysis of networks. Complexity Economics     Evolutionary economics focuses on economic change. Hence processes of change such as growth, innovation, structural and technological change, as well as economic development in general are analysed. Evolutionary economics often gives emphasis to populations and (sub-)systems. Evolutionary Economics     The core idea of ecological economics is that human economic activity is bound by absolute limits. Interactions between the economy, society and the environment are analysed, while always keeping in mind the goal of a transition towards sustainability. Ecological Economics     Los economistas de la complejidad consideran la economía como un sistema complejo que consiste en, pertenece y se superpone a otros sistemas complejos. Economía de la complejidad     La idea central de la economía ecológica es que la actividad económica humana está acotada por límites absolutos. Sin embargo, estos límites no son completamente fijos, ya que están codeterminados por: (1) «límites planetarios» (fijos) (Rockström et al. 2009) y (2) factores sociales (dinámicos), como valores, instituciones, etc. La economía se concibe como un subsistema integrado en los sistemas más amplios de la sociedad y la biosfera. Economía ecológica     Los economistas evolutivos examinan cómo y por qué cambia la economía. Este énfasis en la naturaleza cambiante del capitalismo es la característica crucial que los distingue de sus homólogos no evolutivos. En consecuencia, sus temas más frecuentes son: el crecimiento económico, el cambio estructural, los procesos y sistemas de innovación, el cambio tecnológico, el cambio institucional y el desarrollo económico. Economía evolutiva     La economía poskeynesiana procura analizar las economías capitalistas que se caracterizan por ciertas características distintivas. Las economías capitalistas son economías de producción monetaria en las que los bancos u otras instituciones financieras anticipan dinero (crédito) para que las empresas inviertan en capital físico y mano de obra para producir bienes y servicios. Economía poskeynesiana     La mayoría de los economistas institucionales conciben la economía como un sistema de organización social (formal e informal) relacionado con la producción, distribución y consumo de bienes o, en términos institucionalistas tradicionales, para la asignación de los medios de la vida socioeconómica y su reproducción. En lugar de presuponer ciertas características universales enraizadas en la naturaleza humana, la idea crucial es que las características concretas de las sociedades y las formas de organización económica varían considerablemente a lo largo del espacio y el tiempo. Economia institucionalista     La economía feminista analiza la interrelación entre el género y la economía. Para la economía feminista, la comprensión del trabajo, que no solo incluye el trabajo asalariado sino también el trabajo doméstico y los cuidados, además del (no) pago del trabajo y su distribución entre los géneros, son elementos centrales. Economía feminista     La EPM concibe la economía como un proceso continuo de transformación de la naturaleza y la sociedad mediante la producción. Así, la economía no se concibe como una plataforma neutral de intercambio y cooperación, sino como una constitución histórica y política caracterizada principalmente por relaciones de poder asimétricas, ideología y conflictos sociales. Economía política Marxista     Según la economía neoclásica, el problema económico central es la naturaleza limitada de los recursos sociales. Debido a esta escasez, la economía como ciencia debe estudiar la organización de una economía para instaurar el bienestar mediante la asignación óptima de recursos. Economía neoclásica     El foco de atención de la investigación que se lleva a cabo en la tradición de las escuelas austriacas reside en investigar la coordinación económica entre los individuos. Escuela Austriaca     La economía conductual es un campo bastante reciente de la economía dominante; fundamentalmente trata de las diferencias que el comportamiento humano muestra con respecto del modelo del homo economicus o del hombre racional. Economía conductual     This Micro-Masters program on Circular Economy looks at the concept and its application from different angles, covering a very wide variety of topics (From Fossil Fuels to Biomass: A Chemistry Perspective; Circular Economy: An Interdisciplinary Approach; Economics and Policies in a Biobased Economy). It offers a well-rounded, multidisciplinary perspective, using sciences and humanities together for a deeper understanding of the topic. A great start for newbies with Circular Economy! The access to the course is for free, but you can also apply for full-time on-campus graduate-level programs, be it Wageninged or other universities. 2016 Level: adelantado Economics and Policies for a Circular Bio-Economy Prof. Dr. Maria Barbosa, Prof. Dr. Jan Vreeburg, Prof. Dr. Jacqueline Bloemhof, et. al. Wageningen University & Research The Economics and Geopolitics of Russia Selling Yuan and Gold Reserves It is important for students to understand the workings of international and public finance and that the goal of governments and politicians is not always economic efficiency when making financial decisions. Normative goals other than efficiency can motivate economic decisions. A good economist is able to recognise, clearly name and take into account the values and goals behind economic behaviour, when making sense of the world. 2023 Level: debutante Russia sells foreign reserves   Economy Studies In this book, distinguished economist Edith Kuiper shows us that the history of economic thought is just that, a his-story, by telling the herstory of economic thought from the perspective of women economic writers and economists. Although some of these women were well known in their time, they were excluded from most of academic economics, and, over the past centuries, their work has been neglected, forgotten, and thus become invisible. 2022 Level: debutante A Herstory of Economics Edith Kuiper Wiley In this volume, Katz offers a detailed summary of the foundations, evolutions and approaches of Dependency Theory in Latin America, focusing on the regional interpretations of Marxism, Developmentalism and World-Systems Theory. 2022 Level: adelantado Dependency Theory After Fifty Years Claudio Katz Brill This book is an original, systematic, and radical attempt at decolonizing critical theory. Drawing on linguistic concepts from 16 languages from Asia, Africa, the Arab world, and South America, the essays in the volume explore the entailments of words while discussing their conceptual implications for the humanities and the social sciences everywhere. 2022 Level: debutante Changing Theory Dilip M. Menon Routledge To grasp sex in all its complexity, including its relationship to gender, class, race and power, Srinivasan argues that we need to move beyond the simplistic views of consent in the form of yes-no, to rather consider the more complex question of wanted-unwanted. 2021 Level: debutante The Right to Sex Amia Srinivasan Farrar, Straus and Giroux In this searing and insightful critique, Adrienne Buller examines the fatal biases that have shaped the response of our governing institutions to climate and environmental breakdown, and asks: are the 'solutions' being proposed really solutions? Tracing the intricate connections between financial power, economic injustice and ecological crisis, she exposes the myopic economism and market-centric thinking presently undermining a future where all life can flourish. 2022 Level: debutante The Value of a Whale Adrienne Buller Manchester University Press The Price of Slavery analyzes Marx's critique of capitalist slavery and its implications for the Caribbean thought of Toussaint Louverture, Henry Christophe, C.
