L'Observatoire régional de l'environnement (ORE) expose les instruments économiques que nous avons à disposition pour faire face à la gravité des problèmes environnementaux (réchauffement climatique, stress hydrique, pollution des eaux continentales et marines, érosion de la biodiversité). On apprend quels sont les enjeux à mettre un prix à la nature (pollution, biodiversité...) et quels sont les avantages et inconvénients de chaque mesure mise en place par l'État pour agir pour une transition écologique durable. Enfin, il propose différentes méthodes qui pourraient améliorer notre approche à inclure notre environnement dans notre système économique en prenant des cas concrets (eau potable, prix du carbone...) 2012 Level: avancé Donner un prix à la Nature ? Valérie Barbier L'Observatoire régional de l'environnement (ORE) de Poitoux-Charentes This Forum in the Boston Review deals with the role of economics in modern policymaking and presents a wide set of perspectives on the topic. The opening text by Suresh Naidu, Dani Rodrik and Gabriel Zucman aims to answer a range of common criticisms against the modern, neoclassical science of economics and its influence on public discussions. 2019 Level: débutant Economics After Neoliberalism Suresh Naidu, Dani Rodrik, Gabriel Zucman Boston Review In this Ted Talk, Oxford economist Kate Raworth argues that instead of prioritizing the growth of nations, the world should rather prioritize meeting the needs of all people living on the planet within ecological limits. 2018 Level: débutant A healthy economy should be designed to thrive, not grow Kate Raworth TED In spite of the manifold critique about the state of economics in the aftermath of the financial crisis, an even increasing presence of economists and economic experts can be observed in the public sphere during the last years. On the one hand this reflects the still dominant position of economics in the social sciences as well as the sometimes ignorant attitude of economists towards findings of other social sciences. On the other hand this paper shows that the public debate on politico-economic issues among economists is dominated by a specific subgroup of economists, tightly connected to an institutional network of “German neoliberalism”. This group of “public economists” (i) is dominant in public debates even after the financial crisis, (ii) reproduces the formative German economic imaginary of the Social Market Economy in a German neoliberal interpretation and (iii) has a good access to German economic policymaking, rooted in a long history of economic policy advice. 2016 Level: avancé Still the queens of social sciences?

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. 2018 Level: débutant Foundational Economy Karel Williams, Julie Froud, Sukhdev Johal, Michael Moran, Angelo Salento, Davide Arcidiacono, Filippo Barbera, Andrew Bowman, John Buchanan, Sandra Busso, Joselle Dagnes, Joe Earle, Ewald Engelen, Peter Folkman, Colin Haslam, Ian Jones, Darlo Minerv Manchester University Press The Privatized State shows how privatization undermines the very reason political institutions exist in the first place, and advocates for a new way of administering public affairs that is more democratic and just. 2020 Level: débutant The Privatized State Chiara Cordelli Princeton University Press
