For the last century, financial crash after financial crash has sent shockwaves through our world. It's time we learned from them. 'Remarkably accessible' The Times _________________There is very little that is certain in economics, except this: there will be another financial crisis. But while we may not be able to stop the next one, we can predict and contain it. The Great Crashes tells the stories of ten historic financial events - from the Wall Street Crash and the dot com boom and bust to the COVID pandemic - and what we can learn from them. Combining her clear-eyed analysis with compelling storytelling, renowned economist Professor Linda Yueh uses these meltdowns to extract a critical three-step framework to help us to recognise the early signs of a crash, mitigate the effects and even prevent them in the future. It is a book that offers urgent lessons for the modern world._________________'An important contribution that can help society anticipate and tackle potential crashes in the future' Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Great Economists written and read by Linda Yueh.What can the ideas of history''s greatest economists tell us about the most important issues of our time?Since the days of Adam Smith, economists have grappled with a series of familiar problems - but often their ideas are hard to digest, before we even try to apply them to today''s issues. Linda Yueh is renowned for her combination of erudition, as an accomplished economist herself, and accessibility, as a leading writer and broadcaster in this field; and in The Great Economists she explains the key thoughts of history''s greatest economists, how their lives and times affected their ideas, how our lives have been influenced by their work, and how they could help with the policy challenges that we face today. In the light of current economic problems, and in particular economic growth, Yueh explores the thoughts of economists from Adam Smith and David Ricardo through Joan Robinson and Milton Friedman to Douglass North and Robert Solow. Along the way she asks, for example: what do the ideas of Karl Marx tell us about the likely future for the Chinese economy? How does the work of John Maynard Keynes, who argued for government spending to create full employment, help us think about state investment? And with globalization in trouble, what can we learn about handling Brexit and Trumpism?''Economics students, like others, can learn a lot from this book'' - Professor Paul Collier, author of The Bottom Billion''Not only a great way to learn in an easily readable manner about some of the greatest economic influences of the past, but also a good way to test your own a priori assumptions about some of the big challenges of our time.'' - Lord Jim O''Neill, former Chairman at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, former UK Treasury Minister, and author of The Growth Map''An extremely engaging survey of the lifetimes and ideas of the great thinkers of economic history.'' - Professor Kenneth Rogoff, author of The Curse of Cash and co-author of This Time is Different

This book presents a comprehensive analysis of current trends of trade and economic growth in Asia, assessing how they are likely to develop in the future. It examines the evolving patterns of Asian economic development with the emergence of China, including since China’s accession to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) in 2001. It is written by experts specialising in economic growth and regional and global trade/investment issues, alongside country specialists who have examined the development path of Asian economies. It discusses the significance of a export-oriented growth strategy on the Asian region, and the likely patterns of intra-regional specialisation given China’s rise. The book examines the degree to which the remarkable growth of China is likely to affect other Asian countries in terms of global market share, and growth prospects. The book explores how the rise of intra-industry trade is affecting patterns of specialisation in the region, and appraises the role of multinational corporations and foreign direct investment. Informed by the latest empirical economic thinking, this book is a rigorous examination of the influence of an emerging economic superpower, and the future for economic growth in Asia. Readers interested in the implications of the rise of China, the effect on the economic development path of the most successful developing nations of our time and the lessons to be heeded from China’s integration with the global economy will find this a thorough yet accessible account of the influence of an emerging economic superpower.

The authors shed new light on the legal, economic and institutional issues raised by globalisation, extending into areas previously considered as national issues. They discuss how the development of the norms, institutions and reach of the global system will be influenced by the domestic and international concerns arising from the increasing integration of countries in the new century.

With contributions from lawyers, economists and other experts in the field, this book will be welcomed by academics, students, researchers, and policymakers who are interested in a comprehensive volume on economic globalisation. It will also appeal to a wider audience, such as executive education courses, as well as business and law schools.

China''s impressive economic growth has propelled it from being one of the poorest countries in the world to becoming its third largest economy. It is a complex economy with a mix of characteristics resulting from being both a transition economy and a developing country, which also points to the challenges that it still faces. This book explains China''s remarkable transformation from a centrally planned to a more market-oriented economy through examination of the institutional reforms necessary to support such marketisation and eventual global integration. Although no book will be able to be completely comprehensive given the scale of the economy and the remarkable pace of transformation over three decades, this study highlights the key areas giving an overview of the major developments in China''s economy, enabling its prospects of continuing growth to be assessed.

With topical discussion incorporating recent data and developments, this book will be a stimulating read for academic researchers, postgraduate students in economics, international business, Chinese and area studies, as well as anyone interested in understanding the Chinese economy.

Från det romerska torget till digitala valutor hur har marknaden utvecklats under historiens gång och hur kan den komma att se ut i framtiden? Denna antologi gör en djupdykning i marknadsutvecklingen och tittar närmare på marknaders avgörande roll i att utforma samtiden men tar också upp den brännande frågan om hur vi ska navigera fram till en hållbar framtid.

I tankeväckande essäer skrivna av internationella forskare, politiker och sakkunniga utforskas marknadens dynamik under tre kritiska faser: i går, i dag och i morgon. Med utgångspunkt i det antika Greklands torg och i det medeltida Europas marknader undersöker författarna hur tekniska framsteg, konsumentbeteende och geopolitisk strategi till exempel den politik som utövades under Reagan-eran har format nutida marknader. Slutligen tar boken upp de utmaningar för stabiliteten på marknaden som utgörs av till exempel auktoritära stater och AI.
