Book Synopsis 16 nouvelles questions d'économie contemporaine by : Philippe Askenazy
Download or read book 16 nouvelles questions d'économie contemporaine written by Philippe Askenazy and published by Albin Michel. This book was released on 2010-03-22 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Économiques 2 continue à défricher les nouveaux territoires de l'économie politique. Autour de Philippe Askenazy et de Daniel Cohen se sont rassemblés des auteurs qui partagent leur approche concrète et pragmatique des faits. Cette nouvelle édition de questions d'économie contemporaine s'appuie, comme la précédente, sur les travaux de recherche du Cepremap, le Centre pour la recherche économique et ses applications. Trois thèmes principaux ont été retenus. Le premier traite de la crise financière, qui reste entourée d'une certaine opacité sur les mécanismes qui l'ont produite. Le second traite porte sur ce qu'on appelle depuis longtemps le « mal français ». Quelles sont la nature, l'origine et les solutions éventuelles à apporter à ce phénomène ? Le troisième thème développe les menaces qui pèsent de plus en plus sur l'État-providence. Une refonte majeure de notre système de protection sociale permettrait-elle de le pérenniser tout en le rendant plus efficace ? Ce volume est la suite de la magistrale entreprise commencée avec Économiques 1.
Book Synopsis Economy and the Future by : Jean-Pierre Dupuy
Download or read book Economy and the Future written by Jean-Pierre Dupuy and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A monster stalks the earth—a sluggish, craven, dumb beast that takes fright at the slightest noise and starts at the sight of its own shadow. This monster is the market. The shadow it fears is cast by a light that comes from the future: the Keynesian crisis of expectations. It is this same light that causes the world’s leaders to tremble before the beast. They tremble, Jean-Pierre Dupuy says, because they have lost faith in the future. What Dupuy calls Economy has degenerated today into a mad spectacle of unrestrained consumption and speculation. But in its positive form—a truly political economy in which politics, not economics, is predominant—Economy creates not only a sense of trust and confidence but also a belief in the open-endedness of the future without which capitalism cannot function. In this devastating and counterintuitive indictment of the hegemonic pretensions of neoclassical economic theory, Dupuy argues that the immutable and eternal decision of God has been replaced with the unpredictable and capricious judgment of the crowd. The future of mankind will therefore depend on whether it can see through the blindness of orthodox economic thinking.
Download or read book Homo Economicus written by Daniel Cohen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-06-13 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The West has long defined the pursuit of happiness in economic terms but now, in the wake of the 2007-8 financial crisis, it is time to think again about what constitutes our happiness. In this wide-ranging new book, the leading economist Daniel Cohen traces our current malaise back to the rise of homo economicus: for the last 200 years, the modern world has defined happiness in terms of material gain. Homo economicus has cast aside its rivals, homo ethicus and homo empathicus, and spread its neo-Darwinian logic far and wide. Yet, instead of bringing happiness, homo economicus traps human beings in a world devoid of any ideals. We are left feeling empty and dissatisfied. Today more and more people are beginning to recognize that competition and material gain are not the only things that matter in life. The central paradox of our era is that we look to the economy to give direction to our world at the very time when social needs are migrating toward sectors that are hard to place within the scope of market logic. Health, education, scientific research, and the world of the Internet form the heart of our post-industrial societies, but none of these belong to the traditional economic mould. While human creativity is higher than ever, homo economicus imposes himself like a sad prophet, a killjoy of the new age. Drawing on a rich array of examples, Cohen explores the new digital and genetic revolutions and examines the limitations of homo economicus in our rapidly transforming world. As human beings have an extraordinary ability to adapt, he argues that we need to rebalance the relation between competition and cooperation in favour of the latter. This thought-provoking analysis of our contemporary predicament will be of great value to anyone interested in the relationship between what happens in our economies and our personal happiness.
Book Synopsis The Crisis and Renewal of U.S. Capitalism by : Laurence Cossu-Beaumont
Download or read book The Crisis and Renewal of U.S. Capitalism written by Laurence Cossu-Beaumont and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-22 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the reversal of America’s fortune from the triumphalism of the Roaring Nineties to the gloom of the lost decade and the Great Depression, theoretical conceptions of US capitalism have remained surprisingly unchanged. In fact, if the crisis questioned the sustainability of the US capitalist paradigm, it did not fundamentally challenge academic theorization of American political economy. This book departs from the American political economy literature to identify three common myths that have shaped our conceptualization of US capitalism: its reduction to a state-market dyad dis-embedded from societal factors; the illusion of a weak state and the synchronic conception of the US variety of capitalism. To remedy these pitfalls, the authors propose a civilizational approach to American political economy at the crossroads between cultural studies, history, sociology and political science. Drawing together contributions from a rich variety of fields (from geography to cultural studies, political science and sociology) this work sheds a new light on America’s "cultural political economy" combining theoretical reflection with empirical data and offering innovative perspectives on the crisis and renewal of American capitalism.
Book Synopsis A Violent World by : Jean-Hervé Lorenzi
Download or read book A Violent World written by Jean-Hervé Lorenzi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1990s Francis Fukuyama announced the end of history. The 2000s showed how it is an illusion to imagine a peaceful world without conflict. In this book the authors explore how six major constraints are set to fix the trajectory of the global economy. Three of them are new: the aging population, the failure of technical progress, and the scarcity of savings. The other three have been at work for some time: the explosion of inequality, the mass transfer of activities from one end of the world to the other, and the limitless financialization of economy. They suggest that like seismic activity which depends on pressure between tectonic plates, the political and social tensions will be exacerbated in the coming years by these major forces. They propose that authorities will be incapable of preventing neither the date nor the intensity of the coming earthquakes, and ask the question: Are we able to cope with these future shocks and the violence they are sure to cause?

Book Synopsis France Votes: The Election of François Hollande by : I. Wall
Download or read book France Votes: The Election of François Hollande written by I. Wall and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: France Votes analyzes the French elections of 2012 in the context of a France and Europe in crisis. With regard to the economy, Irwin Wall describes the ways in which the country's adherence to the common currency in the Eurozone has stripped France of its freedom of manouver. France Votes shows how a European-wide economic crisis was reflected in political crisis at home and the rise of new political extremism combined with mass disaffection from politics altogether. The result of all of this, posits Wall, is that France has become a no-choice democracy.
Book Synopsis Fictitious Capital by : Cédric Durand
Download or read book Fictitious Capital written by Cédric Durand and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2007-08 credit crisis and the long recession that followed brutally exposed the economic and social costs of financialization. Understanding what lay behind these events, the rise of "fictitious capital" and its opaque logic, is crucial to grasping the social and political conditions under which we live. Yet, for most people, the operations of the financial system remain shrouded in mystery. In this lucid and compelling book, economist Cdric Durand offers a concise and critical introduction to the world of finance, unveiling the truth behind the credit crunch. Fictitious Capital moves beyond moralizing tales about greedy bankers, short-sighted experts and compromised regulators to look at the big picture. Using comparative data covering the last four decades, Durand examines the relationship between trends such as the rise in private and public debt and the proliferation of financial products; norms such as our habitual assumptions about the production of value and financial stability; and the relationship of all this to political power. Fictitious Capital offers a stark warning about the direction that the international economy is taking. Durand argues that the accelerated expansion of financial operations is a sign of the declining power of the economies of the Global North. The City, Wall Street and other centres of the power of money, he suggests, may already be caked with the frosts of winter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La crise financière de 2008 a-t-elle durablement changé le visage de l'économie mondiale ? Les solutions improvisées dans l'urgence et les réformes structurelles entreprises pour mieux réguler les transactions financières sont-elles à la hauteur des besoins de l'économie ? La société française est-elle marquée par une défiance croissante des individus envers les institutions ? Sommes-nous durablement entrés dans une "société de défiance" ? Comment restaurer la confiance des citoyens envers les institutions et entre eux ? Quel doit être le rôle indispensable du politique à cet effet ? Des menaces conséquentes pèsent de plus en plus sur notre Etat providence. Une refonte majeure de notre système de protection sociale permettrait-elle de le pérenniser tout en le rendant plus efficace ? Le système de santé et surtout celui des retraites sont au coeur des analyses et des solutions présentées ici. Tels sont les thèmes abordés dans ce volume à travers 16 essais où l'on retrouve les qualités de clarté et de rigueur qui avaient fait le succès du précédent recueil, sous la direction des mêmes auteurs.

Download or read book Les Français et l'argent written by Collectif and published by Albin Michel. This book was released on 2021-03-03 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voici une synthèse magistrale sur les pratiques sociales des Français qui bouscule bien des idées reçues. Le contexte ? Les Français sont plus pessimistes que les autres européens. Pourquoi ? A cause manifestement de leur défiance vis-à-vis des institutions et de la société. Le résultat ? Leur bonheur privé dépend, plus qu'ailleurs, de leur richesse personnelle. Les différents contributeurs de ce livre s'interrogent sur le rapport de l'argent et des Français, sur leur générosité envers les oeuvres caritatives et sur leur rapport à l'impôt. Ils élargissent aussi le champ de l'analyse de nos comportements en décrivant la manière dont les couples se coordonnent pour gérer leur passage à la retraite. Ils décryptent le monde très particulier du football, illustré par le montant des transferts de joueurs qui atteint chaque saison des nouveaux records et constatent l'éclatement du monde du travail dont la polarisation des emplois est l'expression la plus visible. Au-delà de l'approche strictement économique, ce tableau ambitieux des nouvelles recherches en cours aide à mieux comprendre la société française et le monde qui l'entoure.
