New Geography In The Global Automotive Industry

de Marcelo Jose Do Carmo

~~108,65€~~ 97,79€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book is a valuable contribution for all those interested in the functioning of the historical geography of capitalism. As sociology has been emphasizing for some years now, throughout the 20th century, capital has perfected its mobility capacity, subjecting communities, workers and territories, increasingly susceptible to locational blackmail, that is, to the constant threat of plant closures. This process is due, for example, to union pressure and the reluctance of other agents to ensure production stability. As these plants adopt increasingly modern practices, characterized by highly compact industrial organization models such as Completely Knock-Down (CKD) and its prefabricated and imported kits, the attachment of these companies to their locations weakens. Consequently, the trend of investment becomes more frequent. This book accurately identifies these movements, above all, in terms of Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs), which flood countries and regions lacking "indigenous" automobile groups and transform them into low-cost production and export platforms.

U.S. Dollar'S Future As The Global Reserve Currency

~~79,50€~~ 71,55€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The U.S. dollar has been the preferred global currency since the end of World War II, providing our nation with inherent economic advantages as well as responsibilities. Today, an estimated 88 percent of all currency transactions by value are conducted in U.S. dollars. Among other things, this limits the risk of a balance-of-payments crisis, which inherently lowers our exchange rate risk. The dollar’s position also allows the United States and Americans to borrow at rates such as 50 to 60 basis points lower. The role of the dollar reflects global confidence in the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) as an institution and the U.S. economy and financial markets. The dollar’s global role also reflects continued U.S. global economic and financial leadership. Changes in the global economy, and geopolitical shifts could cause a shift from the dollar to other currencies. Focus in particular is centered on China’s economic rise, U.S. sanctions, and digital currencies.

Unlike other cryptocurrencies, their value is not just based on market enthusiasm; a stablecoin’s value is supposed to be backed by real assets held by the company that issues the stablecoin.

Theory Of Qualitative Economic Growth: A New Framework For Economic Growth Theory

de Sergio Focardi

125,88€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book develops the theory of qualitative growth. This theory provides a major overhaul of economic theory. Modern economies are evolutionary complex systems subject to a process of rapid innovation that makes aggregation very difficult. Mainstream economics is based on aggregating variables. When aggregation is impossible, mainstream economics creates idealized economies without any empirical basis. Our theory of qualitative growth is based on the principles of modern empirical science where models might include terms and variables that acquire meaning through global theory and its measurement processes. That is, in modern empirical sciences, variables are ultimately defined by the process of observation. However, the observation process might include the entire theory. For example, we do not observe temperature directly but only through instruments that exploit how temperature is linked to other variables such as the elongation of a column of mercury. We develop an integrated monetary economic model where the real economy is represented by hidden abstract variables that include quantity, quality, and generalized inflation. These variables do not have a direct observation process but are in relationship with observables such as the Economic Complexity Index. In this way, we develop an economic theory able to support decision making for qualitative growth while in contrast mainstream economics would label qualitative growth as a recession. The idea of qualitative growth, put forward by Capra and Henderson in 2009, is the basic notion that growth is a good and essential feature of human societies, but it must be understood as organic development of qualitative aspects of life. Qualitative growth responds to the basic need of "decoupling" growth from the use of natural resources which is now recognized as a pillar of the green transition.

 The 1st Conference of Interdisciplinary Research on Real Estate CIRRE 2016 was held on the 15th and 16th of September in Ljubljana Slovenia. The conference was organized as part of the 10th anniversary of the Faculty of Law in Ljubljana. Participants were researchers from more than thirteen countries along with about sixty contributions. The 2st CIRRE 2017 in Cartagena Spain was my first introduction by participating in the conference with a number of papers and PhD students from my then lectureship in Real Estate at the Hanze University of Applied Sciences in Groningen. When I asked where the CIRRE congress wanted to be organized in 2018, I got the question back: why not in Groningen? And so it happened that in 2018 the CIRRE congress was held in Groningen by Hanze University of Applied Sciences, The Netherlands with approximately 100 scientists. This was followed by the 4th CIRRE 2019 held in Trondheim, Norway. Participants were researchers from twelve countries. For the 2020 congress, the intended location was Saxion University of Applied Sciences, Enschede, The Netherlands but due to the pandemic, we pushed it to 2021. Also in 2021 the pandemic was not (yet) over and we decided to have this congress entirely digitally. Many research papers were presented, commented on and improved over a two-day period. From all these submissions, I made a selection of the best potential papers for this book. After two peer reviews, the papers were resubmitted with the attached result of seven chapters.

Economy As A Complex System Of Economic Actions: In Search Of A New Paradigm

de Paata Leiashvily

212,00€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Based on a dialectical analysis of purposeful activity, a decentralized economy is presented as a complex nonlinear living system of economic actions. In such an economy, the general laws of the universe, which dialectics and synergetics studies, manifest themselves in a specific form. This allows us to see many well-known economic phenomena in an unusual light and to discover in them what cannot be detected by standard methods of orthodox theory. The monograph presents a system of concepts, based on which the fundamentally new interpretation of how the market economy functions and how it has evolved from its inception to the present is given. It is shown that behind the external chaos of economic life hiding surprisingly ordered, symmetrical, deep structures that provide self-regulation of a competitive market economy. Like all living systems, the economy is developing, which results in the monopolization and financialization of the economy. But over time, it loses the ability to self-regulate. Regulation becomes necessary, because of which the role of centralization of the economy increases. The search for new methods of regulating such an economy becomes inevitable.

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Brand owners have been sounding the alarm about dangerous counterfeit products plaguing the internet for years. As consumers have moved online, counterfeiters have embraced the internet also. Their tools are becoming more sophisticated and their targeted products becoming more wide ranging as they dupe unwitting consumers into purchasing fakes. It is clear that the fight against dangerous fakes in e-commerce requires proactive measures by the platforms. SHOP SAFE takes an important step in ensuring that what consumers see online is what they will get as reported in chapter 1. Counterfeit goods infringe on IPR, and can harm the U.S. economy and threaten consumer safety. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB), the U.S. agency tasked with enforcement against counterfeits at the border, has reported that the annual number of small packages sent to the U.S. since fiscal year 2013 more than doubled, and small packages seized often contain counterfeit goods. Chapter 2 examines: how elements of the EU and U.S. approaches to combating counterfeit goods in small packages compare, any enforcement challenges posed by these goods, and the extent to which CBP has taken steps to address these challenges. Chapters 3 and 4 examine counterfeit medications.

Balancing Economic, Legal, And Social Macrosystems Based On Modelling Decision Processes

de Lidiya V. Zhukovskaya

212,00€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The author considers the interaction of three national macrosystems (economic, legal, and social) within a national public metasystem, justifying and solving the problem of their balancedness using the concept of Berge equilibrium. This equilibrium mathematically expresses the Golden Rule of ethics (GR), one of the most ancient, specific, and widespread moral generalizations that appear in Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, and Confucianism. It instructs: "Do to others as you would like them to do to you." The author studies the influence of morality (in the sense of Kant''s imperative or the GR) on strategic decision-making in the national public metasystem. The Nash equilibrium of the three macrosystems reflects the neoliberal economic doctrine widespread currently. An alternative moral-philosophical economic doctrine based on the GR is substantiated using systems theory and game theory.

Who Will Pay To Save The Planet? The $100 Trillion Question

de Anthony Rowley

108,65€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Until quite recently most people were either in the dark or in denial about climate change, and even now that the impact is showing up dramatically in (man-made) "natural" disasters such as typhoons, hurricanes, fires, floods, and rising seas, the world remains divided over what action to take and largely ignorant as to what the cost of action will be. The critical issue of who will pay for a climate rescue operation has long been neglected, and now that it is finally coming into focus it is obvious that the potential deficit of finance is matched by a similar deficit of clear thinking on how to marshal and deploy the funds needed to transition successfully from a "brown" to a "green" global economy. This book discusses the nature of the threat of climate change and the problems faced by governments in combatting climate change, as well as potential solutions.
