Capital 资本论1-3套装 卡尔 马克思 马克思倾其毕生心血写成的一部科学著作 被奉为工人阶级革命的 圣经 被誉为人类思想史上不朽的理论丰碑 《资本论》创造了一个崭新的思想体系。其研究世界的方法源于德国哲学、早期社会主义理论和政治经济学。马克思像黑格尔一样,相信能够用一个辩证法公式概括人类的进化历程。他认为,所有哲学家所做的一切都在于致力于解释世界,但他同时认为,问题的关键在于如何改变世界。 马克思在黑格尔辩证法的基础之上,颠覆了传统的 形而上学 ,建立了一个现实中得以实践的*的思想体系,一个影响到地球50%以上人口的学说体系。 《资本论》以唯物史观的基本思想为指导,通过深刻分析资本主义生产方式,揭示了资本主义社会发展的规律,同时也使唯物史观得到了科学的验证和进一步的丰
During a 1999 protest of the World Trade Organization, Rivoli, an economics professor at Georgetown, looked on as an activist seized the microphone and demanded, "Who made your T-shirt?" Rivoli determined to find out. She interviewed cotton farmers in Texas, factory workers in China, labor champions in the American South and used-clothing vendors in Tanzania. Problems, Rivoli concludes, arise not with the market, but with the suppression of the market. Subsidized farmers, and manufacturers and importers with tax breaks, she argues, succeed because they avoid the risks and competition of unprotected global trade, which in turn forces poorer countries to lower their prices to below subsistence levels in order to compete. Rivoli seems surprised by her own conclusions, and while some chapters lapse into academic prose and tedious de*ions of bureaucratic maneuvering, her writing is at its best when it considers the social dimensions of a global economy, as in chapters on the social networks of African used-clothin
For the Third Edition, 2001 Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz joins forces with new co-author Carl Walsh, who brings both economic expertise and teaching savvy to the project. Together, Stiglitz and Walsh thoroughly integrate contemporary economics into the traditional curriculum. Recognizing the limitations of the traditional AS/AD model, the authors offer an improved framework for the analysis of macroeconomic fluctuations. This approach emphasizes the role of the Fed and the federal funds market in the determination of short-term interest rates. The result is an analysis of fluctuations in inflation/output space and a model reflecting the real world of macroeconomics that students encounter in the business press and other media.
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Big Short,Liar’s Poker and The Blind Side! The tsunami of cheap credit that rolled across the planetbetween 2002 and 2008 was more than a simple financial phenomenon:it was temptation, offering entire societies the chance to revealaspects of their characters they could not normally afford toindulge. The Greeks wanted to turn their country into a pi?ata stuffedwith cash and allow as many citizens as possible to take a whack atit. The Germans wanted to be even more German; the Irish wanted tostop being Irish. The trademark of Michael Lewis’s bestsellers is to tell animportant and complex story through characters so outsized andoutrageously weird that you’d think they have to be invented.(You’d be wrong.) In Boomerang, we meet a brilliant monk who hasfigured out how to game Greek capitalism to save his failingmonastery; a cod fisherman who, with three days’ training, becomesa currency trader for an Icelandic bank; and an Irish real estatedevelope

In early 2009, many economists, financiers, and media punditswere confidently predicting the end of the American-led capitalismthat has shaped history and economics for the past 100 years. Yetthe U.S. economic model, far from being discredited, may bestrengthened by the financial crisis. In this provocative book,Anatole Kaletsky re-interprets the financial crisis as part of anevolutionary process inherent to the nature of democraticcapitalism. Capitalism, he argues, is resilient. Its first form,Capitalism 1.0, was the classical laissez-faire capitalism thatlasted from 1776 until 1930. NeYest was Capitalism 2.0, New DealKeynesian social capitalism created in the 1930s and eYestinguishedin the 1970s. Its last mutation, Reagan-Thatcher marketfundamentalism, culminated in the financially-dominatedglobalization of the past decade and triggered the recession of2009-10. The self-destruction of Capitalism 3.0 leaves the fieldopen for the neYest phase of capitalism's evolution. Capitalism islikely to transform
Pack your cutlass and blunderbuss--it's time to go a-pirating "The Invisible Hook" takes readers inside the wily world of late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century pirates. With swashbuckling irreverence and devilish wit, Peter Leeson uncovers the hidden economics behind pirates' notorious, entertaining, and sometimes downright shocking behavior. Why did pirates fly flags of Skull and Bones? Why did they create a "pirate code"? Were pirates really ferocious madmen? And what made them so successful? "The Invisible Hook" uses economics to examine these and other infamous aspects of piracy. Leeson argues that the pirate customs we know and love resulted from pirates responding rationally to prevailing economic conditions in the pursuit of profits."The Invisible Hook" looks at legendary pirate captains like Blackbeard, Black Bart Roberts, and Calico Jack Rackam, and shows how pirates' search for plunder led them to pioneer remarkable and forward-thinking practices. Pirates understood the advantages of consti
