This is the 2024 edition of Dishonest Money. It has been lightly rewritten and contains a new chapter (Chapter Zero), that describes the danger of CBDCs and the benefits of Bitcoin.

Um livro corajoso que traz uma visão arejada e acessível sobre a economia brasileira. Entre 2006 e 2017, a economia brasileira viveu numa montanha russa. Do segundo mandato de Lula ao impeachment de Dilma Rousseff, o país passou por alguns dos anos de maior prosperidade de sua história, mas também viveu uma crise Sem precedentes. O que aconteceu? Este livro sugere uma resposta. Segundo a autora, os obstáculos para a continuidade do crescimento inclusivo de 2006 e 2010 eram superáveis, mas optou-se por fazer deles pretexto para uma malsucedida mudança de rumo.

The Indian crypto market has experienced an exponential surge in the past few years and become a vehicle to get rich quickly. However, what exactly is crypto? How did we reach the crypto stage—a decentralized system of finance—from the barter system? Crypto the Disruptor answers these and other such penetrating questions as it traces the history of money and the global economy.

The reality of hyperinflations is exponential price increases, worthless currency, and food shortages. They are normally preceded by war, revolution, famine, or pandemics. In some cases, they are the results of decades of fiscal malpractice. Inflation has become a prominent subject of discussion in the United States and across the world. There have been dozens of recorded hyperinflations in modern history. This book looks at ten prominent hyperinflations across history. We look at what led to the hyperinflation, the first troubling signs, and government malpractices.

The twentieth century was the managerial century in the United States. An organizational transformation, from entrepreneurial to managerial capitalism, brought forth what became a dominant narrative: that administrative coordination by trained professional managers is essential to the efficient running of organizations both public and private. And yet if managerialism was the apotheosis of administrative efficiency, why did both its practice and the accompanying narrative lie in ruins by the end of the century?

The collapse of USI Tech sent shockwaves through the cryptocurrency community, exposing the dangers of unchecked ambition, and highlighting the need for greater transparency and accountability in the industry. But amidst the wreckage, there are lessons to be learned and truths to be uncovered.

Fifteen Cents on the Dollar follows the lives of four Black Millennial professionals and a banking company founded with the stated mission of closing the Black-white wealth gap. That company, known as Greenwood, a reference to the historic Black Wall Street district in Tulsa, Oklahoma, generated immense excitement and hope among people looking for new ways of business that might lead to greater equity. But the twists and turns of Greenwood’s journey also raise tough questions about what equality really means.

Bitcoin did not appear out of nowhere. For decades prior to Satoshi Nakamoto’s invention, a diverse group of computer scientists, privacy activists, and heterodox economists tried to create a digital form of money that could operate independently of government control. The Genesis Book tells the story of the people and projects that inspired the invention of the world’s first successful peer-to-peer electronic cash system.

Unassuming but formidable, American maritime insurers used their position at the pinnacle of global trade to shape the new nation. The international information they gathered and the capital they generated enabled them to play central roles in state building and economic development.

This book captures Desai’s lucid exploration of the ideas of finance as seen through the unusual prism of the humanities. Through this novel, creative approach, Desai shows that outsiders can access the underlying ideas easily and insiders can reacquaint themselves with the core humanity of their profession. The mix of finance and the humanities creates unusual pairings: Jane Austen and Anthony Trollope are guides to risk management; Jeff Koons becomes an advocate of leverage; and Mel Brooks’s The Producers teaches us about fiduciary responsibility.

Capitalism didn’t fail, it was ruined. What went wrong with capitalism? Ruchir Sharma’s account is not like any you will have heard before. He says progressives are right, in part, when they mock modern capitalism as “socialism for the rich.” For a century, governments have expanded in just about every measurable dimension, from spending to regulation and the scale of financial rescues when the economy wobbles. The result is expensive state guarantees for everyone—bailouts for the rich, entitlements for the middle class, welfare for the poor.

The Money Game by Adam Smith is a timeless classic that provides an insider’s account of the intricacies of money and how the stock market impacts every area of our lives.

Smith’s Irregular Rules shatter common myths and misconceptions, revealing why nothing works all the time and illustrating how greed and fear fuel the market.

Una crítica vehemente y documentada al modo en el que entendemos hoy la economía. En su búsqueda de certidumbres científicas, la economía ha acabado imponiéndonos una visión del mundo demasiado estrecha y ha creado una ortodoxia que no es sana. Muchas de las decisiones más relevantes para nuestras sociedades se toman siguiendo premisas falsas y modelos económicos erróneos. La manera en que se enseña en la universidad no transmite a los estudiantes qué es lo más importante y verdadero de la vida humana.

Ein Bullshit-Job ist eine Beschäftigungsform, die so völlig sinnlos, unnötig oder schädlich ist, dass selbst der Arbeitnehmer ihre Existenz nicht rechtfertigen kann. Es geht also gerade nicht um Jobs, die niemand machen will, sondern um solche, die eigentlich niemand braucht.

We live under an ideology that preys on every aspect of our lives: our education and our jobs; our healthcare and our leisure; our relationships and our mental wellbeing; even the planet we inhabit – the very air we breathe. So pervasive has it become that, for most people, it has no name. It seems unavoidable, like a natural law. But trace it back to its roots, and we discover that it is neither inevitable nor immutable. It was conceived, propagated, and then concealed by the powerful few. It is time to bring it into the light - and, in doing so, to find an alternative worth fighting for.

This detailed case study describes the intense fight over the role of the IMF in Argentina's 2005 debt restructuring and the ensuing bitter decade of litigation with holdout creditors, demonstrating that outcomes for sovereign debt are determined by a complex interplay between financial markets, governments, the IMF, the press, and the courts.

The whole world has a stake in India’s future, and that future hinges on whether India can develop its economy and deliver for its population—now the world’s largest—while staying democratic.
