The rise of the Tea Party and the 2010 election results revealed that tens of millions of Americans are alarmed by big government but skeptical that anything can or will be done to stop the growth of the state. In Free Market Revolution, the keepers of Ayn Rand’s legacy argue that the answer lies in Rand’s pioneering philosophy of capitalism and self-interest—a philosophy that more and more people are turning to for answers.

Chris Von der Ahe knew next to nothing about baseball when he risked his life’s savings to found the St. Louis Browns, the franchise that would become the St. Louis Cardinals.

Many blame today's economic inequality, stagnation, and political instability on the free market. The solution is to rein in the market, right?

The book reveals bold new ways to organize markets for the good of everyone.

Es ist Zeit, sich vom Kapitalismus abzuwenden, sagt Sahra Wagenknecht. Wir leben in einem Wirtschaftsfeudalismus, der mit freier oder sozialer Marktwirtschaft nichts zu tun hat. Und die Innovationen, die uns bei der Lösung wirklich wichtiger Probleme weiterbringen, bleiben aus. Wie kann es sein, dass vom Steuerzahler finanzierte technologische Entwicklung private Unternehmen reich macht, selbst wenn diese gegen das Gemeinwohl arbeiten?

Although middle-income families don't earn much more than they did several decades ago, they are buying bigger cars, houses, and appliances. To pay for them, they spend more than they earn and carry record levels of debt. In a book that explores the very meaning of happiness and prosperity in America today, Robert Frank explains how increased concentrations of income and wealth at the top of the economic pyramid have set off "expenditure cascades" that raise the cost of achieving many basic goals for the middle class.

The Great Recession that began in 2007 is now more than four years old—and counting. Some 24 million Americans are unemployed or underemployed, and at recent rates of job creation we won’t be back to normal levels of employment until late this decade. This is a tragedy. Do we have to accept...

A toxic ideology rules the world of extreme competition and individualism. It misrepresents human nature, destroying hope and common purpose. Only a positive vision can replace it, a new story that re-engages people in politics and lights a path to a better world. George Monbiot shows how new findings in psychology, neuroscience and evolutionary biology cast human nature in a radically different light: as the supreme altruists and cooperators.

This wide-ranging treatment of how money secretly influences our lives includes chapters on the many forms of money, why money is so easily worshipped, why money sometimes feels more important than life, hoarding money, the source of riches, inheritance, and the stock market.

Ever since we produced our course Thinking About Capitalism, customers have expressed interest in a follow-up course that could help them understand socialism in the same way. After much consideration, we determined that it actually would be more beneficial to create a course that compares and contrasts the two major global economic theories, examining them in ways that move past the polemics many of us are used to and looking at these systems as they relate to one another and the world at large.

The dire economic situation we find ourselves in is not a result of economic forces alone, but of the policies pursued, and not pursued, by world leaders.

In his "remarkable" (Men's Journal) and "controversial" (Fortune) book -- written in a "wry, amusing style" (The Guardian) -- Bruce Cannon Gibney shows how America was hijacked by the Boomers, a generation whose reckless self-indulgence degraded the foundations of American prosperity. In A...

The United States has two separate banking systems today - one serving the well-to-do and another exploiting everyone else. How the Other Half Banks contributes to the growing conversation on American inequality by highlighting one of its prime causes: unequal credit. Mehrsa Baradaran examines how a significant portion of the population, deserted by banks, is forced to wander through a Wild West of payday lenders and check-cashing services to cover emergency expenses and pay for necessities - all thanks to deregulation that began in the 1970s.

Hij biedt een alternatieve economische theorie die een betere economische politiek mogelijk maakt.

Trotz zahlreicher Reformen in den letzten Jahrzehnten ist Deutschland auf der einen Seite auf Exportnachfrage angewiesen, während auf der anderen Seite weiterhin die Zahl der Arbeitslosen steigt. Gekonnt analysiert der Ökonom Peter Bofinger die deutschen Reformen neuerer Zeit und zeigt ihre Makel auf. Sein Befund: Wir sind besser, als wir glauben! Sparmaßnahmen des Staates wirkten in die falsche Richtung; man sollte keine drastische Senkung der Staatsausgaben, sondern Investitionen vornehmen.

Nadie esperaba mucho de ellos. Todos - políticos y sociólogos, analistas y politólogos - daban a los mayores españoles por amortizados y semienterrados.
