In Terror Incorporated, Loretta Napoleoni maps out the arteries of an international economic system that feeds armed groups the world over. Chasing terror money, she takes the reader from CIA headquarters to the smuggling routes of the far East, from the back rooms of Wall Street to hawala exchanges in the Middle East.

La mondialisation, ce terme aujourd'hui à la mode, n'est pas un phénomène récent. Elle résulte de l'européanisation du monde, c'est-à-dire de l'expansion des nations européennes dans leur mouvement de conquête. L'auteur se propose à la fois de démystifier ce phénomène fondateur de la modernité occidentale, en montrant qu'il n'est porteur d'aucun sens de l'histoire, et d'en étudier les enjeux les plus actuels.

Le titre de cet essai est volontairement provocateur : en effet, en 2013, la France risque la récession et devrait atteindre les 11% de chômage, selon l'OFCE. Néanmoins, le diagnostic de la crise est maintenant bien établi. Et, comme on dit en mathématiques, un problème bien posé est à moitié résolu. Nos usines ferment. Nous ne sommes plus compétitifs. Jusqu'à présent, nous avons pu maintenir notre niveau de vie par l'endettement. Mais c'est fini.

Melding on-the-ground reports with a deep knowledge of history, French exposes the cultural foundations of India’s political, economic and social complexities.

Ein Insider schildert den wirtschaftlichen Aufstieg in China: Analyse und Prognose zugleich.

China steigt zur größten Volkswirtschaft der Welt auf und könnte schon in wenigen Jahren die amerikanische Wirtschaft überholen. Konrad Seitz erzählt die dramatische Geschichte Chinas: von der Jahrtausende alten Geschichte Chinas und seiner "vollendeten Zivilisation", vom Zusammenbruch der konfuzianischen Welt im 19. Jahrhundert und der Verzweiflung der Chinesen an ihrer eigenen Kultur, und von der Geburt des neuen China seit 1949.

It is a truism that when America sneezes, Europe catches a cold. The subprime mortgage crisis, which began in America in 2007, unleashed a veritable epidemic of financial ill health all over the world. All European countries were affected, and the developing world also felt a chill. However it was Iceland, a tiny volcanic outcrop in the North Atlantic whose population of 300,000 had the highest GDP and counted itself the happiest in the world, which caught the worst cold. It has nearly killed them.

For all the attention globalization has received in recent years, little consensus has emerged concerning how best to understand it. For some, it is the happy product of free and rational choices; for others, it is the unfortunate outcome of impersonal forces beyond our control. It is, in turn, celebrated for the opportunities it affords and criticized for the inequalities in wealth and power it generates.

Sex, lies, conflicts of interest, international intrigue, and a double-cross of thousands of union employees in the heart of America. Add to that three major companies' futures on the line and an assassination by anarchist terrorists in Paris of one of the company's chairman that almost kills a deal to save at least two of the companies. Hollywood? No. This was real. The Last American CEO is the ultimate insider's view of one of the biggest global business deals in history: Chrysler's 1987 purchase of American Motors.

In this David-and-Goliath story about Ireland’s role as prime real estate for the world’s largest tech multinationals, and the considerable impact it has had on us as individuals, investigative journalist Aoife Barry does a deep-dive into the butterfly effect the presence of tech companies has had on the nation and exposes the real-life consequences it has had on us as individuals.

There has been a considerable decrease in the amount of physical metals available on major exchanges. While at the retail level, the supply of such commodities is increasing and premiums are falling, powerful entities have been observing a significant drawdown in availability. This is corroborated by the fact that central banks have recently been engaging in gold acquisitions at unprecedented rates. What makes this situation particularly remarkable is that the average person seems to be completely oblivious to these massive movements of wealth into gold and silver.

Capitalist globalisation since the 1980s has produced immense benefits in terms of technical progress, poverty reduction and welfare improvement. However, it has been accompanied by profound contradictions, including ecological destruction, global warming, inequality, concentration of business power, and financial instability. Regulation of global political economy in the interests of the majority of the world’s population is essential if the human species is to avoid a Darwinian catastrophe.

In this Springer Brief, the author introduces how Chinese firms are successfully using their own variants of the "Silicon Valley Approach" to management. The author begins the discussion by deliberating on the extent to which management models need to be re-invented. A fundamentally new approach is then introduced, which already exists and is proving itself in practice at some of Silicon Valley's most dynamic firms. The author finds that the Chinese management models, in comparison, may be even more advanced. If true, this could have profound implications for managers everywhere.

In this book, investigative journalist Haley Sweetland Edwards offers a detailed look at one little-known but powerful provision in most modern trade agreements that is designed to protect the financial interests of global corporations against the governments of sovereign states. She makes a devastating case that Investor-State Dispute Settlement - a "shadow court" that allows corporations to sue a nation outside its own court system - has tilted the balance of power on the global stage.
