Pengars psykologi : tidlösa lärdomar om förmögenhet, girighet och lycka

Häftad, Svenska, 2021

211 kr

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.

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

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.

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

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.

If You Can Just Print Money, Why Do I Pay Taxes?

Modern Monetary Theory Distilled and Debunked in Plain English

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 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.

How Economists Invented Austerity and Paved the Way to Fascism

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.

Hive Mind

How Your Nation's IQ Matters So Much More Than Your Own

AvGarett Jones

Häftad, Engelska, 2016

279 kr

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

Over the last few decades, economists and psychologists have quietly documented the many ways in which a person's IQ matters. But, research suggests that a nation's IQ matters so much more.As Garett Jones argues in Hive Mind, modest differences in national IQ can explain most cross-country inequalities. Whereas IQ scores do a moderately good job of predicting individual wages, information processing power, and brain size, a country's average score is a much stronger bellwether of its overall prosperity. Drawing on an expansive array of research from psychology, economics, management, and political science, Jones argues that intelligence and cognitive skill are significantly more important on a national level than on an individual one because they have "positive spillovers." On average, people who do better on standardized tests are more patient, more cooperative, and have better memories. As a result, these qualities—and others necessary to take on the complexity of a modern economy—become more prevalent in a society as national test scores rise. What's more, when we are surrounded by slightly more patient, informed, and cooperative neighbors we take on these qualities a bit more ourselves. In other words, the worker bees in every nation create a "hive mind" with a power all its own. Once the hive is established, each individual has only a tiny impact on his or her own life. Jones makes the case that, through better nutrition and schooling, we can raise IQ, thereby fostering higher savings rates, more productive teams, and more effective bureaucracies. After demonstrating how test scores that matter little for individuals can mean a world of difference for nations, the book leaves readers with policy-oriented conclusions and hopeful speculation: Whether we lift up the bottom through changing the nature of work, institutional improvements, or freer immigration, it is possible that this period of massive global inequality will be a short season by the standards of human history if we raise our global IQ.

How Migrants Make the Economies They Move to a Lot Like the Ones They Left

AvGarett Jones

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar

A provocative new analysis of immigration's long-term effects on a nation's economy and culture.Over the last two decades, as economists began using big datasets and modern computing power to reveal the sources of national prosperity, their statistical results kept pointing toward the power of culture to drive the wealth of nations. In The Culture Transplant, Garett Jones documents the cultural foundations of cross-country income differences, showing that immigrants import cultural attitudes from their homelands—toward saving, toward trust, and toward the role of government—that persist for decades, and likely for centuries, in their new national homes. Full assimilation in a generation or two, Jones reports, is a myth. And the cultural traits migrants bring to their new homes have enduring effects upon a nation's economic potential.Built upon mainstream, well-reviewed academic research that hasn't pierced the public consciousness, this book offers a compelling refutation of an unspoken consensus that a nation's economic and political institutions won't be changed by immigration. Jones refutes the common view that we can discuss migration policy without considering whether migration can, over a few generations, substantially transform the economic and political institutions of a nation. And since most of the world's technological innovations come from just a handful of nations, Jones concludes, the entire world has a stake in whether migration policy will help or hurt the quality of government and thus the quality of scientific breakthroughs in those rare innovation powerhouses.

Entropy Economics

The Living Basis of Value and Production

AvJames K. Galbraith,Jing Chen

Inbunden, Engelska, 2025

299 kr

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar

Economists dream of equilibrium. It’s time to wake up.In mainstream economics, markets are ideal if competition is perfect. When supply balances demand, economic maturity is orderly and disturbed only by shocks. These ideas are rooted in doctrines going back thousands of years, yet, as James K. Galbraith and Jing Chen show, they contradict the foundations of our scientific understanding of the physical and biological worlds. Entropy Economics discards the conventions of equilibrium and presents a new basis for thinking about economic issues, one rooted in life processes—an unequal world of unceasing change in which boundaries, plans, and regulations are essential. Galbraith and Chen’s theory of value is based on scarcity, and it accounts for the power of monopoly. Their theory of production covers increasing and decreasing returns, uncertainty, fixed investments over time, and the impact of rising resource costs. Together, their models illuminate key problems such as trade, finance, energy, climate, conflict, and demography. Entropy Economics is a thrilling framework for understanding the world as it is and will be keenly relevant to the economic challenges of a world threatened with disorder.

Hanke deliver a rigorous and fascinating exploration of the monetary economy. You'll find a detailed and clear roadmap of how and why fiat money is created and destroyed, its connections to the broader economy, and the objective mechanisms that underwrite and maintain its value.In their exploration, Sekerke and Hanke solve many problems and puzzles and shed light on several important questions: Why economists misunderstand the structure and function of the monetary systemThe central role of the commercial banking system in fiat money regimes, and why commercial banks are not like other financial intermediariesThe economic and regulatory constraints on bank money creationThe interplay between banking and capital markets in funding investment projectsHow the “banks” that dominate the international financial landscape distort the lines between banking and capital markets businessWhy banking regulation and fiscal policy determine and constrain monetary policy to an equal or greater extent than central bank actionsSekerke and Hanke trace important post-crisis policy developments and sketch the broad strokes of a new operating model that would restore the performance of the monetary system and make better use of aggregate savings: Making neutrality the explicit goal of monetary policy, properly understoodIncreasing the supply of bankable projects and keeping them on bank balance sheetsBreaking the financial system's fatal attraction to land and real estateReducing regulatory distortions in lending marketsReforming universal banking institutions and stimulating competitionTransitioning to a quantity-based monetary policy frameworkAn engaging and incisive guide to the global systems of money and banking, Making Money Work is destined to become a sought-after classic for bankers, finance professionals, policymakers, regulators, academics, and laypeople with an interest in money and banking.

Makroekonomi : teori, politik och institutioner

Makroekonomi är en lärobok skriven för svenska förhållanden. Begrepp och teorier behandlas i anslutning till analys av Sveriges institutioner, ekonomiska utveckling och ekonomisk-politiska erfarenheter. Makroekonomins centrala områden – nationalräkenskaper, arbetslöshet, inflation, konjunktursvängningar och tillväxt – analyseras ur den lilla öppna ekonomins perspektiv. Stor vikt läggs vid teorin och empirin kring finansiella kriser. Nytt i denna femte upplaga är ett självständigt kapitel om finanssektorn. Fördelarna och riskerna förknippade med bankernas dubbla funktion som kredit- och betalningsförmedlare beskrivs grundligt.Det unika med denna bok är att den utgår från det rika makroekonomiska arv i form av bidrag till teori och praktisk politik som vårt land kan uppvisa. Svenska nationalekonomer som Knut Wicksell, Gustav Cassel, Eli Heckscher, Gunnar Myrdal och Bertil Ohlin har påverkat den makroekonomiska teorin. Hit hör också Dag Hammarskjöld, vars bild pryder bokens omslag. Sverige uppvisar ett antal spännande makroekonomiska experiment. Riksbanken är den äldsta centralbanken i världen. Den var först i Europa med att ge ut sedlar. Under 1700-talet blev Sverige det första land som prövade penningpolitik under pappersmyntfot. Under 1930-talets globala ekonomiska kris blev Sverige det första land – och är fortfarande det enda – som infört en stabilisering av konsumentprisindex som målet för penningpolitiken. Sverige var också tidigt ute med en medveten användning av finanspolitiken för att styra konjunkturen. Den svenska modellen för arbetsmarknadspolitiken väckte internationell uppmärksamhet under efterkrigstiden. Makroekonomi är en grundbok i nationalekonomi för universitet och högskolor. Den lämpar sig också väl för den som är allmänt intresserad av samhällsekonomins utveckling och den ekonomisk-politiska debatten.
