Volatility and Growth

It has long been recognized that productivity growth and the business cycle are closely interrelated. Yet, until recently, the two phenomena have been investigated separately in the economics literature.This book provides the first consistent attempt to analyze the effects of macroeconomic volatility on productivity growth, and also the reverse causality from growth to business cycles. The authors show that by looking at the economy through the lens of private entrepreneurs, who invest under credit constraints, one can go some way towards explaining persistent macroeconomic volatility and the effects of volatility on growth.Beginning with an analysis of the effects of volatility on growth, the authors argue that the lower the level of financial development in a country the more detrimental the effect of volatility on growth. This prediction is confirmed by cross-country panel regressions. The data also suggests that a fixed exchange rate regime or more countercyclical budgetary policies are growth-enhancing in countries with a lower level of financial development. The former reduce aggregate volatility whereas thelatter reduce the negative effects of volatility on long-term productivity-enhancing investment by firms.The book concludes with an investigation into how the interplay between credit constraints and pecuniary externalities is sufficient to generate persistent business cycles and to explain the occurrence of currency crises.

This book provides a comprehensive exploration of IoT security through the lens of ML and AI. The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming industries by connecting billions of devices, creating unprecedented opportunities but also significant security challenges. As IoT adoption accelerates, cyber threats targeting these connected systems are growing in complexity. Traditional security measures are often inadequate for IoT ecosystems, necessitating advanced solutions that integrate machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI).

De ce migrația nu urmărește legea cererii și a ofertei?De ce liberalizarea comerțului are adesea ca efect creșterea șomajului și scăderea salariilor?Poate cineva să explice de ce și când are loc creșterea economică?În această carte revoluționară, economiștii premiați Abhijit V. Banerjee și Esther Duflo ne arată cum economia, când este practicată corect, ne poate ajuta să rezolvăm cele mai spinoase probleme sociale și politice ale zilei. De la imigrație la inegalitate, de la creșterea lentă la accelerarea schimbărilor climatice, avem resursele să abordăm provocările cu care ne confruntăm, dar suntem adesea orbiți de ideologie.Originală, provocatoare și imperios necesară, Economie utilă pentru vremuri dificile oferă noul tip de gândire de care avem nevoie.Bazându-se pe cercetări de ultimă oră în economie – și pe ani de explorare a celor mai eficiente soluții pentru reducerea sărăciei extreme –, construiește un caz convingător în favoarea intervenționismului inteligent și a unei societăți clădite pe compasiune și respect. Un antidot atât de necesar la un discurs polarizat, această carte ne ajută să apreciem și să înțelegem lumea în echilibru precar în care trăim.
Poor Economics
rethinking poverty & the ways to end it

Billions of government dollars, and thousands of charitable organizations and NGOs, are dedicated to helping the world’s poor. But much of their work is based on assumptions that are untested generalizations at best, harmful misperceptions at worst.Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo have pioneered the use of randomized control trials in development economics. Work based on these principles, supervised by the Poverty Action Lab, is being carried out in dozens of countries. Drawing on this and their 15 years of research from Chile to India, Kenya to Indonesia, they have identified wholly new aspects of the behavior of poor people, their needs, and the way that aid or financial investment can affect their lives. Their work defies certain presumptions: that microfinance is a cure-all, that schooling equals learning, that poverty at the level of 99 cents a day is just a more extreme version of the experience any of us have when our income falls uncomfortably low.This important book illuminates how the poor live, and offers all of us an opportunity to think of a world beyond poverty.
Chhaunk On Food, Economics And Society

Chhaunk, oil infused with different spices, lies at the heart of Indian cooking. It is just a few teaspoons, but it finishes a dish and gives it its particular piquancy. The pieces in this delightful book can be seen as a literary chhaunk – a sprinkling of ideas and arguments around the social sciences, which imparts its own distinct flavour.
Good Economics for Hard Times
Better Answers to Our Biggest Problems
AvAbhijit Banerjee,Esther Duflo
Inbunden, Engelska, 2019

Tillfälligt slut
Why is opening up to international trade good for everybody? Do immigrants from poorer countries take away jobs from low-income native workers? Why is inequality continuing everywhere? Does redistribution actually undermine incentives? Should we worry about the rise of artificial intelligence or celebrate it? How can India manage the trade-off between growth and climate change? Is economic growth over in the West? Should India care? Figuring out how to deal with today's critical economic problems is the great challenge of our time. Much greater than space travel, perhaps even than curing cancer what is at stake is the whole idea of the good life and, perhaps, of liberal democracy itself. We have the resources to solve these problems; what we lack are ideas that will help us jump the wall of disagreement and distrust that divides us. Only if India can engage seriously in this quest, and if the best minds in the world work with governments and civil society to redesign India's social programmes for effectiveness and political viability, will history remember our era with gratitude. In this revolutionary book, renowned MIT economists Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo take on this challenge, building on cutting-edge research in economics, explained with lucidity and grace. Original, provocative, and urgent, Good Economics for Hard Times makes a persuasive case for intelligent interventions toward a society built on compassion and respect. It is an extraordinary book, one that will help Indians appreciate and understand our precariously balanced world.
