Anwar Shaikh seeks in his lectures for alternative explanations for empirically observed macro and microeconomic patterns of economic fluctuations, price volatility, and economic development. In contrast to many other economic theorists, he rejects micro-foundations based on the idea of utility maximization and economic equilibria, and develops a theory of "real competition". In his lectures, he elaborates a demarcation line emphasizing his objective to develop a theoretical framework treating imperfections, not as a deviation from an idealistic setting of economic equilibrium but rather considering imperfections as a core ingredient of theory.

 

 
 

 

 

Comment from our editors:

This is an alternative approach to economic theories and how they can explain real-world economics phenomena. Very relevant for aspiring economists; especially those in undergrad and graduate schools. I believe Anwar's work, with the right coverage, can be a breakthrough. Simply, his approach makes sense.

30 lectures; length of each lecture is approximately 1:35:00 (-+)

Wir brauchen Alternativen zu einem System, das auf die stetige Ausbeutung natürlicher Ressourcen angewiesen ist. Die Kreislaufwirtschaft stellt ein derartiges Wirtschaftskonzept dar – dem es jedoch bisher an politischer Tatkraft fehlt. Ein Beitrag von Burcu Gözet.

Die kontraktive Geldpolitik umfasst alle Maßnahmen, welche das Geldangebot, das heißt die Höhe des sich im Umlauf befindlichen Geldes, verringert. In den meisten Ländern wird die Geldpolitik von einer Zentralbank oder einem Finanzministerium durchgeführt. Die Geldpolitik der Europäischen Union regelt die Europäische Zentralbank (EZB).

Banking 101 is a series of 6 short videos that ask the following questions: How do banks work and how is money created? Is reveals common misunderstandings of money creation and the role of banks. Furthermore, the videos show how models taught in many introductory classes to economics (Econ 101) do not reflect those processes: Part 1) “Misconceptions around Banking” questions common comprehensions of how banks work (savings = investments). Part 2) “What's wrong with the money multiplier” states that the model of the money multiplies is inaccurate. Part 3) “How is money really made by banks” explains the process of money creation, loans and inter-bank settlement. Part 4) “How much money banks create?” asks what limits the money creation by banks and presents the difference between reserve ratio, liquidity ration, equity and refers to the inter-bank market. Part 5) Explores the question if banks create money or just credit and especially refers to credit risks. Part 6) Explains how money gets destroyed when loans are paid back. Note: The videos refer to the UK monetary and banking system, some explanations don't apply to other banking systems, e.g. the reserve ratio.
