Relates Chinese Realism to contemporary political and ethical challenges, such as in international relations and the morality of the public sector.Realism, or Legalism, was once a significant influence in classical Chinese philosophy, later eclipsed by Confucianism. Its ideas, however, remain alive and powerful. Realists propose dealing with real-world problems using real-world instruments, such as incentives, rewards, institutions, and punishments. Adventures in Chinese Realism updates Chinese Realism to explain contemporary political and philosophical issues in a matter-of-fact, thought-provoking way. Contributors to this volume demonstrate how many of the Legalist recipes for creating strength, security, and order can be applied today. In many areas-international relations, corporate ethics, the organization of the public sector, and the roles that bureaucrats and politicians play-Realism offers unique ways to align these inherently particularistic actions with the broader common good.

Henrique Schneider argues that understanding the three Early Confucian thinkers—Confucius, Mencius, and Xunzi—as virtue-ethicists, political philosophers, or social conservatives proves too narrow. Championing a broader and more philosophical reading, The Early Confucian Philosophy of Agency: Virtuous Conduct sheds new light on a well-established topic. Virtuous conduct—aligning actions and motivations with virtues, social roles, and rituals—is the philosophy of agency of Early Confucianism. Confucius, Mencius, and Xunzi share a common philosophy of agency, which does more than describe agents and acts: it also represents a progressive social and political program. Schneider characterizes Early Confucianism as a progressive philosophy due to its human-centered program for social reform, its process view of self-cultivation, and its development. Agents who cultivate themselves can produce virtuous conduct, flourish, and become Junzi. This lets them lead each other in self-cultivation, social environment, and polity. As such, virtuous conduct integrates ethics, social and political philosophy in a theory of action.

While creative destruction and disruptive innovation change the entrepreneurial landscape, regulation - especially regulation of sectorial markets and competition regulation - can delay this change or even bring it to a halt. Grounded in a particular understanding of the economic concept of the market as a series of processes, this book explores the implications of creative destruction, competition regulation and the role that businesses play.Instead of discussing this in a purely abstract manner, this book uses Uber as a case study. Uber plays an active role between these two forces: first as an agent of creative destruction and then possibly as a champion of regulation on its own terms. Henrique Schneider analyses Uber as an economic phenomenon, investigates the fundamental problems with competition regulation, and explores the intermediation of idle capacity through technology. Ultimately, Schneider concludes that the more Uber is regulated, the less innovative it becomes. This groundbreaking book will appeal to a broad and varied readership including economists, educators, students and law professionals.

Moderne Dienstleistungsgesellschaften sind wenig produktiv. Das sagen nationale und internationale Gremien immer wieder. Dabei ist die Feststellung ein Rätsel: Wie kann es sein, dass immer mehr in Produktionsmittel investiert wird – Stichwort Digitalisierung – und die Wirtschaft dabei immer weniger produktiv wird? Und paradoxaler noch: Warum steigt die Produktivität in der Krise an? Aus betriebs- und volkswirtschaftlicher Perspektive wird hier auf das Rätsel eingegangen. Dabei sollen der Begriff und die Messung der Produktivität an die Bedürfnisse einer Dienstleistungsgesellschaft angepasst werden.

Es ist praxisorientiert geschrieben und enthält zahlreiche Beispiele, Fallstudien, Experimente und Übungsaufgaben, um vor allem Studierenden im Bachelorstudium die Plattformökonomie praxisnah zu vermitteln.

Freiheit – ein grosses Wort. Doch was bedeutet es wirklich im Wandel der Zeit? Dieses Buch nimmt Sie mit auf eine fesselnde Reise zu den überraschenden Schauplätzen der Geschichte, an denen die Freiheit errungen, verteidigt oder neu gedacht wurde.In kurzen, packenden Episoden entdecken Sie wenig bekannte historische Begebenheiten neu. Erfahren Sie, wie chinesische Kriegslisten zur Rebellion gegen den Kaiser anstiften konnten, warum die oft verkannten Pharisäer die wahren Freiheitskämpfer ihrer Zeit waren oder wie im alten Athen das Ringen um Gleichheit aussah. Von den Lehren des Konfuzius bis zu den freien Städten des Mittelalters – jede Geschichte wird durch die Brille der Freiheit erzählt.Der Autor misst dabei nicht mit einem absoluten Massstab. Stattdessen stellt er eine frischere, dynamischere Frage: Führte ein Ereignis zu mehr Freiheit für die Menschen als der Zustand davor? Dieser Perspektivwechsel macht die Lektüre zu einem ebenso unterhaltsamen wie informativen Streifzug durch die europäische und globale Geschichte. Ein Buch, das inspiriert und den Blick schärft – für die Freiheitsgeschichten von gestern und die, die wir heute schreiben.
