Krane provides an inside look at China's transformation into a global superpower and explains why the relationship between the US and China is the most critical economic relationship in the world today.

One of the most ambitious legacies of the 20th century was the universal commitment to ensure freedom from want as a human right. But to what extent are countries across the world living up to this commitment? This path-breaking book develops an innovative, evidence-based index for comparing performance on education, food, health, work, and housing across very differently situated countries and over time. It explores the factors influencing performance and provides empirical evidence to resolve some long standing controversies over the principle of "progressive realization".

The global finance system can be regulated to prevent massive credit fraud, tame capitalism, confront the sovereign debt crisis, and move towards investing in the real economy and full employment. "Obamanomics" and American reinvention can lead to a sustained economic recovery but only together with major domestic, European, and global monetary reforms in cooperation with emerging nations.

So viel Geopolitik war noch nie, so viel Nachhaltigkeit war noch nie, so viel Technologie war noch nie - Entscheidungsträger in Politik und Unternehmen müssen sich mit neuen globalen Dynamiken auseinandersetzen, um die Wirtschaft wetterfest zu machen gegenüber internationalen Spannungen, fortschreitendendem Klimawandel, gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen und rasanten Innovationszyklen.

The world’s a mess. Why should you care? Our world is remarkably automated. Resources remain in abundant supply. Life should be so simple. So prosperous. And yet, the vast majority of people still aren’t making a decent living. America was built on principles of personal freedom, rugged individualism, and self-sufficiency; no country has ever accumulated more power and wealth, abused it less, or used that power more to advance the human condition. However, over the last 50 years, our freedoms have been threatened by mounting personal, corporate, and government debt.

Ideas about globalization have become so completely accepted that they are now embraced as the conventional. This book presents a very different position, based on a serious look at the history of globalization and a reader-friendly presentation of the economic data that dramatically refute the accepted truths advanced by so many commentators.

Standort Deutschland ist ein Hort von trägen, selbstzufriedenen Besitzstandwahrern, diagnostiziert ein Chor von Experten und verlangt, dass wir so mobil, flexibel und risikobereit wie die Amerikaner werden. Alles ist auf dem Prüfstand: der Sozialstaat, die Gewerkschaften, unsere Stabilitätskultur, unsere Ordnungspolitik. Alles Unsinn, sagt Detlef Gürtler und fordert Schluss mit dem Gejammer über vermeintliche Schwächen, die in Wahrheit unsere Stärken sind. Detlef Gürtler, Jahrgang 1964, lebt und arbeitet in Berlin, Marbella und Rüschlikon bei Zürich.

With the US market in shambles, investors are looking for other places to put their money. Europe has become the destination of choice and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.

At the end of World War II, America had all the money and all the power. Now, after the Great Crash of 2008, America is cash poor. In The End of Influence, world-renowned economists Stephen Cohen and Brad DeLong argue that this loss will have grave consequences for Americas standing in the world, even as it opens up new opportunities for a new multilateralism.

Warum wir über Geld reden müssen. Kaum ein Thema wird hierzulande so emotional diskutiert wie die Frage um Geld und Schulden. Die Deutschen sind Sparweltmeister, viele haben Angst vor Inflation und Verschuldung. In einer fundierten Analyse deckt Marcel Fratzscher auf, warum wir uns oft täuschen, wenn es ums Geld geht. Er räumt auf mit lang tradierten Mythen, die unseren Umgang mit Geld, häufig unbewusst, prägen. Höchste Zeit, denn unser irrationales Verhältnis zum Geld spaltet die Gesellschaft - wirtschaftlich und sozial. Und es führt zu einer rasant wachsenden Ungleichheit. Bessere Vorsorge.

Every Western business leader wants to know more about China in order to enjoy a greater chance of business success in China. They also need to understand how and why Chinese businesses are spreading throughout the world, particularly under the new "One Belt, One Road" initiative. However, few seek advice from those who best know the answers - Chinese business people.

What if we could hit the reset button on the way we create money, work, commerce, and community? This is not an idle question, for technology now enables us to hit that reset button and organize the creation of money, work, commerce, and community in new ways. If we could start from scratch, what would a new system look like? To answer that, we must understand why the current system is failing. The current system is based on five principles that are assumed to be true.

America is in decline, and the rise of the East suggests a bleak future for the world’s only superpower - so goes the conventional wisdom. But what if the traditional measures of national status are no longer as important as they once were? What if America’s well-being was assessed according to entirely different factors? In The Upside of Down, Charles Kenny argues that America’s so-called decline is only relative to the newfound success of other countries.

In The China Dream, acclaimed business journalist Joe Studwell takes to task the predictions that China will become an economic juggernaut on the world stage in the 21st century - and instead foresees an economic crisis. He argues that since the days of Marco Polo, Western nations have seen the vast population of the Middle Kingdom as a fantastic opportunity for expanding trade, investing time and resources again and again in the hope to develop it, only to see, century after century, its economy crash.
