Ohne Kapitalismus in die Zukunft. Das Wirtschaftswachstum der Moderne versprach uns ein Leben im Wohlstand. Jedoch wird durch die Umweltkrise klar, dass es gerade das Wirtschaftswachstum ist, das die Grundlagen des menschlichen Wohlstands untergräbt. Gleichzeitig hält uns der Glaube, dass der Erfolg im Kampf gegen den Klimawandel davon abhängt, wie viel jeder Einzelne von uns tut, davon ab, einen notwendigen Systemsturz einzuleiten. In diesem Hörbuch analysiert der japanische Philosoph Kohei Saito die Verflechtung von Kapital, Natur und Gesellschaft im Anthropozän.

Born in Cambridge, England, to an upper-middle-class family, John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) attended Eton College and King’s College, Cambridge, where he received a BA in mathematics in 1904. From an early age, he evinced an optimism about improving human life and believed in the power of government to change things for the better. During World War I, Keynes served in the Treasury, and his success in this role led to his appointment as a representative to the Versailles peace conference in 1919.

In this stunning new story of political economy, author Eric Robert Morse examines why the modern system has become so unwieldy and explains what must be done to correct it.

This has given rise to guilt-free consumers, an overly blamed business sector, and a society that finds itself at a loss when it needs to grapple with responsibility.

En este breve ensayo, ¿Qué es el Dinero?, Tolstói analiza el dinero no solo como herramienta económica, sino como símbolo de poder y desigualdad. Sostiene que el dinero permite a unos pocos vivir a expensas del trabajo de muchos, y que su acumulación casi siempre implica injusticia. Para él, el sistema económico moderno es inmoral porque legitima la explotación y aleja al ser humano de una vida sencilla y justa.

Dies ist ein umfassendes und kritisches akademisches Werk, das untersucht, wie der Konsumismus im 21. Jahrhundert zu einer strukturierenden Kraft für Subjektivität, soziale Beziehungen und Ungleichheiten geworden ist. Basierend auf einem interdisziplinären Ansatz, der Sozialpsychologie, kritische Soziologie, digitale Technologie und Konsumtheorie verbindet, bietet das Buch eine tiefgreifende Analyse der symbolischen, affektiven und algorithmischen Mechanismen, die das Verbraucherverhalten im Zeitalter digitaler Plattformen prägen.

In 2004, Argentina’s President, Nestor Kirchner, appointed Martín Redrado to lead their country’s Central Bank. It was the logical choice, considering that Harvard-educated and Wall Street-seasoned Redrado brought to the table an extensive knowledge of world economics. Redrado’s primary assignment as president was to provide monetary and financial stability to a country wrecked with cyclical breakups. In early 2010, Cristina Kirchner ordered the Central Bank to fund public spending and pay national debts. Martín Redrado refused.

Achtsamkeit und Nachhaltigkeit sind zu Modebegriffen geworden. Sie sind aber ebenso zentrale Pfeiler der aktuellen Suffizienz-Bewegung und der jahrtausendealten Lehre des Buddha. Mit Niko Paech und Manfred Folkers loten zwei Experten aus, welche Potenziale die beiden Denkrichtungen mitbringen, um unseren zerstörerischen Wachstumspfad zu verlassen. Über eine provokante Abrechnung mit den Wachstumstreibern kapitalistischen Wirtschaftens und das Besinnen auf die Tugenden eines konsumbefreiten Lebens entwickeln sie eine "Kultur des Genug".

La economía está ahora en tal situación. La solución Nash consta de dos medidas: la compra de tiempo por parte del Estado y la orquestación entre agentes económicos.

EVE: Extra Value Economics: The General Theory of Time-Satisfaction, and the Move to More is a natural law treatise filled with “time bomb” concepts that will shake the foundations of modern economics.
