With the fall of the Berlin Wall, one economic model emerged triumphant. Capitalism - spanning a spectrum from laissez-faire to authoritarian - shapes the market economies of all the wealthiest and fastest-growing nations. The trouble is cracking its shiny veneer. In the US, economic growth is no longer matched by economic development. Wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few, natural resources are exploited for short-term profits, and good jobs are hard to find.

As individuals, companies, and countries struggle to recover from the economic crisis, many are narrowly focused on forecasts for the next week, month, or quarter. Yet they should be asking what the global economy will look like in the years to come—where will the long-term risks and opportunities arise? These are the questions that Daniel Altman confronts in his provocative and indispensable book.

Peter Georgescu arrived in this country as a penniless Romanian refugee and rose to become the CEO of Young & Rubicam. Which is why he's so heartsick that in America today, with flat wages, disappearing jobs, and a shrinking middle class, his kind of rags-to-riches story doesn't seem possible now. But he has a message for his fellow CEOs: we're the ones who must take the lead in fixing the economy.

In this Pulitzer entry, the author describes how we can find balance between our competitive drives and our cooperative drives so that we can operate at highest possible level, and shows us how nature relates to these traits and how they both tie into order and chaos, even to the universe. It gives us a dynamic equation for synthesizing cooperative order with competitive chaos, and teaches the universal law of co-opetition - which means to synthesize cooperation with competition.

How do we stay safe? Should we? What if our attempts are exposing us even more to the very risks we are avoiding? Would acceptance of danger make us more secure? Is there such a thing as foolproof? In Foolproof, Greg Ip presents a macro theory of human nature and disaster that explains how we can keep ourselves safe in our increasingly dangerous world.

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.

Este libro revela una posible estrategia económica para evitar una recesión prolongada y profunda a causa de la pandemia del COVID-19. Trías de Bes la ha bautizado como la solución Nash. El premio nobel de Economía John Nash defendió que hay situaciones en las que la mejor opción individual de los agentes económicos conduce al peor de los escenarios para el conjunto. La economía está ahora en tal situación. La solución Nash consta de dos medidas: la compra de tiempo por parte del Estado y la orquestación entre agentes económicos.

In April 2020, the United States will embark on what has been called "the largest peacetime mobilization in American history": the decennial population census. It is part of a tradition of counting people that goes back at least three millennia and now spans the globe. In The Sum of the People, data scientist Andrew Whitby traces the remarkable history of the census, from ancient China and the Roman Empire, through revolutionary America and Nazi-occupied Europe, to the steps of the Supreme Court.

Colleges and universities have become increasingly costly and - except for a handful of highly selective, elite institutions - unresponsive to 21st century needs. But for the past few years, technology-fueled innovation has begun to transform higher education, introducing new ways to disseminate knowledge and better ways to learn - all at lower cost. In this impassioned account, Richard DeMillo tells the behind-the-scenes story of these pioneering efforts and offers a road map for transforming higher education.

The world needs to change for us to reach our highest potential. Since money powers everything in the world, attempting to solve problems and change the world is impossible without solving things at the root money level. To truly change the world, we would need a new monetary system and a new economic system. This is why it's essential to strive toward a post-money society by embracing cryptocurrencies combined with resource-based economic principles to put us on the path to a better future.

EVE: Extra Value Economics: The General Theory of Time-Satisfaction, and the Move to More is a natural law treatise filled with “time bomb” concepts that will shake the foundations of modern economics.

Pasta, guita, plata, parné, duros. Da igual cómo lo llamemos, pero lo cierto es que el dinero importa ahora más que nunca. En El triunfo del dinero Niall Ferguson demuestra que la historia de las finanzas es el trasfondo de toda la Historia. ¿Cuándo pasó el dinero de metal a papel? ¿Por qué los tipos de interés suben y bajan como un yoyó? ¿Por qué la gente nunca aprende que las burbujas bursátiles siempre acaban estallando? ¿Por qué los seguros ya no son la mejor manera de protegerse contra el riesgo?

Through America Hijacked, we’ll take a critical look into the policies and practices of nearly every administration up until modern day to see just how the deep state came to be and how it hijacked America for their own personal benefit. Where does the issue lie? It lies in the fact that our elected representatives hijack our country, our principles, and everything that we stand for when they use their status and political power to cover up crimes and purposefully make conscious unlawful decisions that impact the lives of ordinary Americans. This is the deep state.
