Naked economics / Charles J. Wheelan (2002)

Públic ISBD Títol : Naked economics : undressing the dismal science Tipus de document : text imprès Autors : Charles J. Wheelan, Autor Editorial : New York : Norton Data de publicació : 2002 Nombre de pàgines : xxii, 260 p. Dimensions : 21 cm ISBN/ISSN/DL : 978-0-393-04982-4 Nota general : Inclou índex i bibliografia Idioma : Anglès (eng) Matèries : Economia Classificació : 00 Economia Resum : Naked Economics makes up for all of those Econ 101 lectures you slept through (or avoided) in college, demystifying key concepts, laying bare the truths behind the numbers, and answering those questions you have always been too embarrassed to ask. For all the discussion of Alan Greenspan in the media, does anyone know what the Fed actually does? And what about those blackouts in California? Were they a conspiracy on the part of the power companies? Economics is life. There's no way to understand the important issues without it. Now, with Charles Wheelan's breezy tour, there's no reason to fear this highly relevant subject. With the commonsensical examples and brilliantly acerbic commentary we've come to associate with The Economist, Wheelan brings economics to life. Amazingly, he does so with nary a chart, graph, or mathematical equation in sight—certainly a feat to be witnessed firsthand. Economics is a crucial subject. There's no way to understand the important issues without it. Now, with Charles Wheelan's breezy tour, there's also no reason to fear it.

Economics rules / Dani Rodrik (2015)

Públic ISBD Títol : Economics rules : the rights and wrongs of the dismal science Tipus de document : text imprès Autors : Dani Rodrik Menció d'edició : First edition. Editorial : New York : Norton Data de publicació : 2015 Nombre de pàgines : 253 p. Dimensions : 22 cm ISBN/ISSN/DL : 978-0-393-24641-4 Idioma : Anglès (eng) Matèries : Economia -- Història Classificació : 017 Història econòmica Resum : In the wake of the financial crisis and the Great Recession, economics seems anything but a science. In this sharp, masterfully argued book, Dani Rodrik, a leading critic from within, takes a close look at economics to examine when it falls short and when it works, to give a surprisingly upbeat account of the discipline. Drawing on the history of the field and his deep experience as a practitioner, Rodrik argues that economics can be a powerful tool that improves the world―but only when economists abandon universal theories and focus on getting the context right. Economics Rules argues that the discipline's much-derided mathematical models are its true strength. Models are the tools that make economics a science. Too often, however, economists mistake a model for the model that applies everywhere and at all times. In six chapters that trace his discipline from Adam Smith to present-day work on globalization, Rodrik shows how diverse situations call for different models. Each model tells a partial story about how the world works. These stories offer wide-ranging, and sometimes contradictory, lessons―just as children’s fables offer diverse morals. Whether the question concerns the rise of global inequality, the consequences of free trade, or the value of deficit spending, Rodrik explains how using the right models can deliver valuable new insights about social reality and public policy. Beyond the science, economics requires the craft to apply suitable models to the context. The 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers challenged many economists' deepest assumptions about free markets. Rodrik reveals that economists' model toolkit is much richer than these free-market models. With pragmatic model selection, economists can develop successful antipoverty programs in Mexico, growth strategies in Africa, and intelligent remedies for domestic inequality. At once a forceful critique and defense of the discipline, Economics Rules charts a path toward a more humble but more effective science.

The courage to act / Bernanke, Ben S. (2015)

Públic ISBD Títol : The courage to act : A memoir of a crisis and its aftermath Tipus de document : text imprès Autors : Bernanke, Ben S., Autor Menció d'edició : First edition Editorial : New York : Norton Data de publicació : 2015 Nombre de pàgines : 610 p. ll. : il., gràf. Dimensions : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/DL : 978-0-393-24721-3 Idioma : Anglès (eng) Matèries : Finances públiques Classificació : 00 Economia Resum : In 2006, Ben S. Bernanke was appointed chair of the Federal Reserve, the unexpected apex of a personal journey from small-town South Carolina to prestigious academic appointments and finally public service in Washington’s halls of power. There would be no time to celebrate. The bursting of a housing bubble in 2007 exposed the hidden vulnerabilities of the global financial system, bringing it to the brink of meltdown. From the implosion of the investment bank Bear Stearns to the unprecedented bailout of insurance giant AIG, efforts to arrest the financial contagion consumed Bernanke and his team at the Fed. Around the clock, they fought the crisis with every tool at their disposal to keep the United States and world economies afloat. Working with two U.S. presidents, and under fire from a fractious Congress and a public incensed by behavior on Wall Street, the Fed―alongside colleagues in the Treasury Department―successfully stabilized a teetering financial system. With creativity and decisiveness, they prevented an economic collapse of unimaginable scale and went on to craft the unorthodox programs that would help revive the U.S. economy and become the model for other countries. Rich with detail of the decision-making process in Washington and indelible portraits of the major players, The Courage to Act recounts and explains the worst financial crisis and economic slump in America since the Great Depression, providing an insider’s account of the policy response.
