Warum manche Ideen aus Politik und Wirtschaft nicht totzukriegen sind
In Talkshows, Leitartikeln, Büchern tauchen sie immer wieder wirtschaftspolitische Thesen, die beliebt sind, einleuchtend klingen und seit Jahrzehnten immer wieder hervorgekramt werden. Das Problem ist Sie sind falsch! Den Kampf gegen diese Mythen hat sich Wirtschafts-Nobelpreisträger Paul Krugman auf die Fahnen geschrieben. In "Kampf den Zombies" geht er klug, geistreich und bewaffnet mit Fakten gegen diese Irrtümer an. Die hier versammelten Artikel seiner beliebten New York Times-Kolumne decken eine breite Themenpalette Mängel im Gesundheitswesen, die Entstehung von Immobilienblasen, der Sinn und Unsinn von Steuerreformen, die Bedeutung sozialer Sicherheit für den Zusammenhalt einer Gesellschaft … Die Zeit ist reif für eine Versachlichung politischer Debatten und eine Konzentration auf Fakten statt Mythen.
An accessible, compelling introduction to today's major policy issues from columnist, best-selling author and Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman. There is no better guide than Paul Krugman to basic economics, the ideas that animate much of our public policy. Likewise, there is no better foe of zombie economics, the misunderstandings that just won't die. Arguing with Zombies is Krugman "the most hated and most admired columnist in the US" (Martin Wolf, Financial Times) at his best, turning readers into intelligent consumers of the daily news with quick, vivid sketches of the key concepts behind taxes, health care, international trade and more. In this new book, in which he builds on and expands his The New York Times columns and other writings, "the most celebrated economist of his generation" (The Economist), offers short, accessible chapters on topics including the European Union and Brexit, the fight for national health care in the United States, the financial meltdown of 2007-2008, the attack on Social Security and the fraudulent argument--the ultimate zombie--that tax cuts for the rich will benefit all. -- publisher's website
Alfred Marshall, the founder of modern economics, once described economics as 'the study of mankind in the ordinary business of earning a living'. In Economics for the Curious, 12 Nobel Laureates show that 'the ordinary business of earning a living' covers a wide range of activities, as they take readers on an engaging tour of some of the everyday issues that can be explored using basic economic principles. Written in the plainest possible language, Nobel Laureates including Paul Krugman, Eric Maskin, Finn E. Kydland and Vernon Smith confront some of the key issues challenging society today – challenges that claim attention in any phase of the business cycle. The range of topics includes how economic tools can be used to rebuild nations in the aftermath of a war; financing retirement as longevity increases; the sustainable use of natural resources and what governments should really be doing to boost the economy. Economics for the Curious is an accessible but informative display of the kinds of questions economics can illuminate. It will appeal to anyone who has an interest in economics and the world around them, and we hope it will encourage further interest and study in the topic from readers everywhere.
Sensatez e insensatez económica en una era de expectativas limitadas
Publicada por primera vez en 1994, esta obra vuelve a cobrar relevancia por su crítica a las políticas de austeridad de los gobiernos conservadores. En él, Krugman somete a juicio este modelo del liberalismo así como para reivindicar la figura de Keynes, cuyas ideas siguen aún prevaleciendo.
