Pengars psykologi : tidlösa lärdomar om förmögenhet, girighet och lycka

Skickas

Förmågan att hantera dina pengar handlar inte så mycket om vad du kan eller känner till. Det handlar om hur du beter dig. Och beteende är svårt att lära ut - även till riktigt smarta personer. Placeringar, privatekonomi och affärsbeslut lärs ut som matematik, där siffror och formler visar oss exakt hur vi ska agera. Men i verkliga livet fattar människor sällan ekonomiska beslut efter räkneexempel. De fattar dem vid middagsbordet eller i ett mötesrum på jobbet där egna erfarenheter, personliga tolkningar av världen, ego, stolthet, reklam och egna drivkrafter läggs samman i en salig blandning. I Pengars Psykologi förklarar den prisbelönte författaren Morgan Housel i 19 fristående korta kapitel hur underligt vi ofta tänker kring pengar och hjälper dig att fatta bättre beslut i ett av de viktigaste ämnena i livet.

Morgan Housel är delägare i Collaborative Fund. Han var tidigare kolumnist i Wall Street Journal och The Motley Fool. Han har två gånger fått utmärkelsen Best in Business Award av Society of American Business Editors and Writers, New York Times Sidney Award och två gånger varit finalist för Gerald Loeb Award for Distinguished Business Writing.

Common Good Economy

A New Compass

AvMariana Mazzucato

Inbunden, Engelska, 2026

255 kr

Skickas

The world-leading economist envisions a 'common good compass' to help navigate our economies in a radically different direction - one that works for everyoneOur economic system is broken. The climate crisis is accelerating. Inequality is deepening. Public trust is crumbling. Wealth concentrates in fewer hands while governments scramble to fix what markets can't do, rather than to shape them from the outset.For too long, economics has treated 'the good' – whether public goods or the commons – as merely correcting market or government failures. This economic framing traps us in an endless cycle of being reactive, patching problems rather than proactively building the economy we need.In The Common Good Economy, Mariana Mazzucato builds on her visionary ideas of the entrepreneurial state and mission-oriented policies to establish a new theory of the common good, one which allows governments and businesses to develop purposeful economic relationships, creating value and building spaces where human flourishing can happen. She argues that how we achieve collective goals – through collective action, participation and reciprocity – matters as much as what those goals are. The book provides a practical 'common good compass' to help navigate our economies in a radically different direction.Full of compelling real-world examples, from governing water to transforming procurement and finance, this is a rigorous reimagining of economics and a manifesto for a future economy that serves people and the planet. It could not be more timely.

A National Bestseller • Recommended by Financial Times as “What to Read in 2025” “The central argument of Our Dollar, Your Problem—that the greenback’s pre-eminence was never guaranteed and might plausibly be overturned—could hardly be more timely.”—The Economist A leading economist explores the global rise of the U.S. dollar and shows why its future stability is far from assured Our Dollar, Your Problem argues that America’s currency might not have reached today’s lofty pinnacle without a certain amount of good luck. Drawing in part on his own experiences, including with policymakers and world leaders, Kenneth Rogoff animates the remarkable postwar run of the dollar—how it beat out the Japanese yen, the Soviet ruble, and the euro—and the challenges it faces today from crypto and the Chinese yuan, the end of reliably low inflation and interest rates, political instability, and the fracturing of the dollar bloc. Americans cannot take for granted that the Pax Dollar era will last indefinitely, not only because many countries are deeply frustrated with the system, but also because overconfidence and arrogance can lead to unforced errors. Rogoff shows how America’s outsized power and exorbitant privilege can spur financial instability—not just abroad but also at home.

Money Beyond Borders

Global Currencies from Croesus to Crypto

AvBarry Eichengreen

Inbunden, Engelska, 2026

(1)

299 kr

A 2,500-year history of international currencies that reveals new insights about the future of the U.S. dollar—as well as crypto and central bank digital currenciesDoubts about the international dominance of the dollar are only growing amid worries about tariffs, political dysfunction, and fraying international alliances. Will the dollar continue to reign supreme? In Money Beyond Borders, the leading authority on international currencies, Barry Eichengreen, puts the dollar’s prospects in deep historical perspective by chronicling the entire history of cross-border currencies, from the invention of coins in the seventh century BCE to the cryptocurrencies of today and the central bank digital currencies of tomorrow.Money Beyond Borders recounts how Greek and Roman coins became the first true international currencies. It tells how the Florentine gold florin became the “greenback of the Renaissance,” and how it was succeeded by Spanish silver and a Dutch fiat currency. The book explains why the British pound dominated the international economy in the nineteenth century, why the dollar rose to the top during World War II, and why the dollar has survived predictions of the imminent loss of its preeminence since the 1970s.The long history of international currencies shows that the same factors that encourage their widespread use eventually lead to their abandonment. Money Beyond Borders makes a powerful case that the dollar is now on the downside of this cycle, and it considers who the winners and losers will be when there is flight away from the greenback. Revealing important patterns in the life cycles of international currencies over the past 2,500 years, the book offers valuable lessons and insights about how currencies rise—and why they fall.

The global market in money - housed in the offshore 'shadow' banking system - holds $217 trillion in financial assets and operates beyond the reach of any nation's taxman. Asset managers, private equity firms, and pension and sovereign wealth funds scoop up the world's savings for investment and manage them as they choose, unaccountable to politicians or the citizens who elect them.In this brilliant, accessible and incisive introduction to the murky world of globalized finance, Ann Pettifor links the activities of remote mobile financial markets to both the cost-of-living and climate crises. In an insane global casino, bankers are gambling with our future. When we foot the bill, no one but a few economists understands what has happened. The result is volatile, unpredictable and uncontrollable speculation in global commodities, pension, energy, and housing.Pettifor argues that societies and governments can take back control of the global financial system. We have done it before and can do it again. Indeed, it is imperative that we do so if we are to manage the twin threats of climate breakdown and biosphere collapse.

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

A Financial Times Best Book of the Year"A must-read, with key lessons for the future."—Thomas PikettyA groundbreaking examination of austerity’s dark intellectual origins. For more than a century, governments facing financial crisis have resorted to the economic policies of austerity—cuts to wages, fiscal spending, and public benefits—as a path to solvency. While these policies have been successful in appeasing creditors, they’ve had devastating effects on social and economic welfare in countries all over the world. Today, as austerity remains a favored policy among troubled states, an important question remains: What if solvency was never really the goal? In The Capital Order, political economist Clara E. Mattei explores the intellectual origins of austerity to uncover its originating motives: the protection of capital—and indeed capitalism—in times of social upheaval from below. Mattei traces modern austerity to its origins in interwar Britain and Italy, revealing how the threat of working-class power in the years after World War I animated a set of top-down economic policies that elevated owners, smothered workers, and imposed a rigid economic hierarchy across their societies. Where these policies “succeeded,” relatively speaking, was in their enrichment of certain parties, including employers and foreign trade interests, who accumulated power and capital at the expense of labor. Here, Mattei argues, is where the true value of austerity can be observed: its insulation of entrenched privilege and its elimination of all alternatives to capitalism. Drawing on newly uncovered archival material from Britain and Italy, much of it translated for the first time, The Capital Order offers a damning and essential new account of the rise of austerity—and of modern economics—at the levers of contemporary political power.

Oavsett vilken utmaning vi står inför att stärka sjukvården, skapa nya jobb eller förhindra en klimatapokalyps uppstår oundvikligen samma fråga: hur ska vi betala för det?

I Underskottsmyten visar Stephanie Kelton att den frågan är missriktad. Allt vi har fått lära oss om pengarnas och de statliga utgifternas roll i ekonomin är fel. I synnerhet tron att underskott äventyrar vårt långsiktiga välstånd.

Med hjälp av den moderna penningteorin (MMT) presenterar Kelton en radikalt annorlunda syn på hur vi kan maximera samhällets potential. Snarare än hur vi ska betala uppmanar hon oss att fråga: hur använder vi våra resurser, och vilka underskott har faktiskt betydelse?

Stephanie Kelton är professor i nationalekonomi vid Stone Brook University och har varit chefsekonom i den amerikanska senatens budgetkommitté.

What if the government could fund anything it wanted by simply creating money out of thin air? That’s the promise of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), a radical economic proposal gaining traction among politicians, activists, and academics. Advocates say that, with the right precautions, governments can create money to end unemployment, fight climate change, and much more – all without raising taxes. In If You Can Just Print Money, Why Do I Pay Taxes?, author Emmanuel Maggiori walks you through MMT in plain language and shows you why its arguments don’t hold water. Maggiori debunks MMT step by step, offering compelling, informed, and rigorous counterarguments against all of its foundational claims. The author explains why MMT-inspired “money printing,” far from guaranteeing prosperity, could be a recipe for inflation, instability, and stagnation. Inside the book: Why MMT’s proposed job guarantee – meant to end unemployment – could backfireHow MMT misreads inflationHow MMT relates to quantitative easing, the controversial money-creation tool used after the financial crisis and the pandemicHow MMT proposes to fight climate change and expand social security – and why the numbers don’t add upPerfect for everyone interested in modern economics and policymaking, If You Can Just Print Money, Why Do I Pay Taxes? is an insightful and engaging new take on a topic generating debates around the world – all the way from blogs to the U.S. Senate and the Bank of England.

*A Financial Times and Wall Street Journal Book of the Year*'My book of the year' Alex Bastani, Novara Media; Tom Keene, Bloomberg'Brilliant ... deeply arresting' Lewis Goodall, The News Agents PodcastA radical examination by a leading financial analyst, commentator and investor of the ills of capitalism and how they can be fixedWhat went wrong with capitalism? Ruchir Sharma’s explanation is unlike any you have heard before. Progressives are partly right when they mock modern capitalism as “socialism for the rich,” but what really happened in recent decades is that government in developed nations expanded in just about every measurable dimension, from spending and regulation to the sheer scale of its rescues each time the economy wobbled. The result, Sharma says, is “socialized risk,” expensive government guarantees, for everyone—welfare for the poor, entitlements for the middle class, and bailouts for the rich.Voters say they are disillusioned with capitalism, but a system so distorted by government interventions is a dysfunctional version of free market ideals. As a result, productivity and economic growth have slowed sharply, shrinking the pie for everyone and stoking popular anger. Since these flaws developed as the government expanded, building an even bigger state will only double down on what’s gone wrong. The answer Sharma offers is a series of seven fixes to restore the balance between state support and free markets and lay the path to a more prosperous and happier future.

In response to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the US Federal Reserve and central banks worldwide have deployed tools that past policymakers and economists might have considered radical. Programmes like large-scale securities purchases and a new policy framework remain a source of confusion for investors, journalists and ordinary citizens alike.Twenty-First Century Monetary Policy demystifies these opaque techniques to reveal how economic ideas, historical events and political forces have transformed the Fed’s policies over several decades. From the stagflation of the 1970s to the Great Recession and the recent pandemic, Ben S. Bernanke masterfully examines how the Fed’s policies—and the institution itself—may change as it grapples with persistently low interest rates, systemic financial risk, rapid technological change and polarised politics. With unparalleled depth of expertise and robust historical sweep, Twenty-First Century Monetary Policy is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding modern finance, investments or US economic policy.
