Behavioural Economics - David Orrell

The controversial science that claims to have revolutionised economics.For centuries, economics was dominated by the idea that we are rational individuals who optimise our own ''utility''. Then, in the 1970s, psychologists demonstrated that the reality is a lot messier. We don''t really know what our utility is, and we care about people other than ourselves. We are susceptible to external nudges. And far from being perfectly rational we are prone to ''cognitive biases'' with complex effects on decision-making, such as forgetting to prepare for retirement. David Orrell explores the findings from psychology and neuroscience that are shaking up economics - and that are being exploited by policy-makers and marketers alike, to shape everything from how we shop for food, to how we tackle societal happiness or climate change. Finally, he asks: is behavioural economics a scientific revolution, or just a scientific form of marketing?

Soumrak homo economicus - Tomáš Sedláček, David Orrell, Roman Chlupatý

Soumrak homo economicus navazuje na úspěšnou Sedláčkovu prvotinu Ekonomie dobra a zla. I v tomto textu nalezneme snahu vrátit ekonomii lidský rozměr a lidem víru v ekonomii. Rozhovor Romana Chlupatého byl natočen v létě 2011 v anglickém Oxfordu pro rozhlasové vysílání. Výsledkem je svěží a srozumitelné zamyšlení nad těžce stravitelnými věcmi. S pomocí inspirativních paralel a metafor ze světa fyziky, biologie či literatury, Sedláček a Orrell pitvají základy systému, nutí k zamyšlení a nabízejí - ale nevnucují - řešení. Při tom, navíc, dokáží čtenáře i pobavit. Tomáš Sedláček, člen Národní ekonomické rady vlády a bývalý poradce Václava Havla, se ovšem tentokrát neobrací ke svým čtenářům jako autor, nýbrž jako diskutér, který rád vede dialog a skrze otázky a odpovědi se pokouší přijít na kloub současné finanční, politické a společenské krizi. Za svého společníka pro diskusi si vybral kanadského matematika a ekonoma Davida Orrella. I on patří k narušitelům starých pořádků, kterým je jasné, že bez kroku do neznáma se skutečného ozdravení nedočkáme. Tomáš Sedláček je patrně nejsledovanějším českým ekonomem současnosti. Díky svým nekonvenčním názorům a schopnosti propojit ekonomii s ostatními obory se v posledních letech prosadil i na mezinárodní scéně. Jeho kniha Ekonomie dobra a zla byla přeložena do 11 jazyků a dočkala se i úspěšného scénického zpracování. David Orrell je kanadský matematik a publicista. Jeho nejznámější knihou jsou Economyths, v nichž skloubil osobní zájem o ekonomii s profesním zájmem o matematiku a modelování. Tvrdí zde, že současná mainstreamová ekonomie stojí v mnoha ohledech na chybných základech, což je podle něj také jedna z příčin stále probíhající krize. Economyths se staly finalistou kanadské National Business Book Award a byly přeloženy do šesti jazyků. Roman Chlupatý je novinář a publicista. Od roku 2000 působí v zahraničí. Přispíval například do francouzského OWNI a nebo čínského FT. V Česku dlouhodobě spolupracuje s předními ekonomickými tituly, jako je Euro, Hospodářské noviny a nebo Investiční web. Autor knihy rozhovorů (Ne)mocná země, ve které se podobně jako v dalších svých aktivitách věnuje tématům spojeným s mezinárodní ekonomikou, politikou a průsečíkem těchto dvou světů.

Revoluční ekonomie: O systému a lidech - Tomáš Sedláček, David Graeber, Roman Chlupatý

Respektovaný ekonom Tomáš Sedláček si s publicistou Romanem Chlupatým k debatě přizval amerického anarchistu Davida Graebera, jednoho z vůdců světového hnutí Occupy, ale též uznávaného antropologa a autora světového bestselleru Dluh: prvních 5000 let. (R)EVOLUČNÍ EKONOMIE: O SYSTÉMU A LIDECH je střetem dvou pohledů na životaschopnost systému, ve kterém žijeme. Férově vedená diskuze reflektuje stále častěji kladenou otázku: Je možné současný dům jen poopravit, anebo je lepší (či nevyhnutelné) ho strhnout a postavit nový o kus dál? Rozhovor nabízí stravitelné, inspirující a místy provokativní zamyšlení nad tématy, která hýbou světem. Tomáš Sedláček, autor mezinárodního bestselleru Ekonomie dobra a zla, zde dostává prostor představit své názory v novém kontextu, který mu evidentně svědčí. Kniha volně navazuje na úspěšný první svazek edice Double, Soumrak homo economicus. Rozhovor Tomáše Sedláčka s kanadským matematikem Davidem Orrellem vyvolal debatu v odborných i laických kruzích, byl přeložen do tří jazyků a vyšel také jako audiokniha. Tomáš Sedláček je patrně nejsledovanějším českým ekonomem současnosti. Díky svým nekonvenčním názorům a schopnosti propojit ekonomii s ostatními obory se v posledních letech prosadil i na mezinárodní scéně. Jeho kniha Ekonomie dobra a zla byla přeložena do 14 jazyků a dočkala se i úspěšného scénického zpracování. David Graeber je americký antropolog a aktivista, který v současnosti působí jako profesor na London School of Economics. Za knihu Dluh: prvních 5000 let získal Batesonovu cenu za kulturní antropologii. Je jedním z vůdců hnutí Occupy.

The Economics of Brexit - Alina I. Petrescu, Philip B. Whyman

The Economics of Brexit – Revisited builds upon and extends the analysis contained within the authors'' previous book, The Economics of Brexit: A Cost-Benefit Analysis of the UK''s Economic Relationship with the EU, which arguably represented the most comprehensive and systematic evaluation of the UK’s economic relationship with the EU. The Economics of Brexit – Revisited continues where the previous volume left off, given that the UK has now formally withdrawn from the EU, and therefore the focus of the evidence presented concerns the potential economic implications arising from Brexit and considering the options available to those negotiating the UK''s future economic relationship both regionally and globally. The Economics of Brexit – Revisited seeks to provide greater clarity to a range of issues that have been hotly debated over the past few years, ranging from the trade and fiscal implications of Brexit, to the economic impact of regulation and migration. The significance of different Brexit options are discussed in detail, including the significance of demands for regulatory harmonisation (the ''level playing field''), along with their implications for UK trade with the EU and the rest of the world. A wide range of economic analyses are evaluated to determine their relative methodological strengths and weaknesses, and ultimately whether their conclusions are sufficiently robust to engender confidence. Finally, noting that a key determinant of the effectiveness of any post-Brexit economic strategy depends upon the degree of flexibility created for economic policy, the book provides an extended examination of the potential relating to different economic policy options available to the UK government, depending upon the form of final trade settlement that is agreed with the EU. These policy options include more active forms of macroeconomic management, combined with industrial and procurement policy. The Economics of Brexit – Revisited therefore seeks to combine evaluation of the available evidence indicating the economic impact of Brexit, together with consideration of policy trade-offs that lie at the heart of the choices surrounding Brexit, and how these might be resolved. The Economics of Brexit – Revisited therefore maintains its position as the most comprehensive analysis of the economics of Brexit in the market today.

Far from being a means to predict the stock market or enrich the elite, economics provides a lens through which we can better understand how things work, design clever solutions and create the conditions in which we can all flourish.With a healthy dose of optimism, and packed with stories of economics in everyday situations, Erik Angner demonstrates the methods he and his fellow economists use to help improve our lives and the society in which we live. He shows us that economics can be a powerful force for good, awakening the possibility of a happier, more just and more sustainable world.

Doing Economics - Marc F. Bellemare

A guide for research economists: how to write papers, give talks, navigate the peer-review process, advise students, and more.Newly minted research economists are equipped with a PhD’s worth of technical and scientific expertise but often lack some of the practical tools necessary for “doing economics.” With this book, economics professor Marc Bellemare breaks down the components of doing research economics and examines each in turn: communicating your research findings in a paper; presenting your findings to other researchers by giving a talk; submitting your paper to a peer-reviewed journal; funding your research program through grants (necessary more often than not for all social scientists); knowing what kind of professional service opportunities to pursue; and advising PhD, master’s, and undergraduate students. With increasing data availability and decreasing computational costs, economics has taken an empirical turn in recent decades. Academic economics is no longer the domain only of the theoretical; many young economists choose applied fields when the time comes to specialize. Yet there is no manual for surviving and thriving as a professional research economist. Doing Economics fills that gap, offering an essential guide for research economists at any stage of their careers.

The Return of Depression Economics - Paul Krugman

Paul Krugman, winner of the 2008 Nobel Prize in economics, shows how today''s crisis parallels the events that caused the Great Depression - and explains what it will take to avoid catastrophe.In 1999, in The Return of Depression Economics, Paul Krugman surveyed the economic crises that had swept across Asia and Latin America, and warned that those crises were a warning for all of us: like diseases that have become resistant to antibiotics, the economic maladies that caused the Great Depression were making a comeback.In the years that followed, as Wall Street boomed and financial wheeler-dealers made vast profits, the international crises of the 1990s faded from memory. But now depression economics has come to America: when the great housing bubble of the mid-2000s burst, the U.S. financial system proved as vulnerable as those of developing countries caught up in earlier crises - and a replay of the 1930s seems all too possible. In this new, greatly updated edition of The Return of Depression Economics, Krugman shows how the failure of regulation to keep pace with an increasingly out-of-control financial system set the United States, and the world as a whole, up for the greatest financial crisis since the 1930s. He also lays out the steps that must be taken to contain the crisis, and turn around a world economy sliding into a deep recession. Brilliantly crafted in Krugman''s trademark style-lucid, lively, and supremely informed - this new edition of The Return of Depression Economics will become an instant cornerstone of the debate over how to respond to the crisis.

How to Teach Economics to Your Dog - Rebecca Campbell, Anthony McGowan

A fun take on some of the biggest questions in economics, made accessible for non-experts (and dogs)Monty is a dog, not a financial genius, but economics still shapes his everyday life. Over the course of seventeen walks, Dr Rebecca Campbell chews over economic concepts and investigates how they apply to our lives – people and mutts alike. There are no graphs, no charts (Monty can’t read them) and definitely no calculus! How to Teach Economics to Your Dog tackles the knotty question of what economics actually is. Is it a mathematical science like physics? Or a moral and philosophical investigation of how societies should manage scarce resources? Along the way we meet some of the great thinkers from Adam Smith to Thomas Piketty, and ponder questions such as: What on earth does quantitative easing mean? And why are some countries so much richer than others?

Edible Economics - Ha-Joon Chang

RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK Economic thinking - about globalisation, climate change, immigration, austerity, automation and much more - in its most digestible formFor decades, a single free market philosophy has dominated global economics. But this is bland and unhealthy - like British food in the 1980s, when bestselling author and economist Ha-Joon Chang first arrived in the UK from South Korea. Just as eating a wide range of cuisines contributes to a more interesting and balanced diet, so too is it essential we listen to a variety of economic perspectives.In Edible Economics, Chang makes challenging economic ideas more palatable by plating them alongside stories about food from around the world. He uses histories behind familiar food items - where they come from, how they are cooked and consumed, what they mean to different cultures - to explore economic theory. For Chang, chocolate is a life-long addiction, but more exciting are the insights it offers into post-industrial knowledge economies; and while okra makes Southern gumbo heart-meltingly smooth, it also speaks of capitalism''s entangled relationship with freedom and unfreedom. Explaining everything from the hidden cost of care work to the misleading language of the free market as he cooks dishes like anchovy and egg toast, Gambas al Ajillo and Korean dotori mook, Ha-Joon Chang serves up an easy-to-digest feast of bold ideas.Myth-busting, witty and thought-provoking, Edible Economics shows that getting to grips with the economy is like learning a recipe: if we understand it, we can change it - and, with it, the world.
