Mikael H?rnqvist challenges us to rethink the overall meaningand importance of Machiavelli's political thinking. Machiavelli andEmpire combines close textual analysis of The Prince and TheDiscourses with a broad historical approach, to establish theimportance of empire-building and imperial strategy inMachiavelli's thought. The primary context of Machiavelli's work,H?rnqvist argues, is not the mirror-for-princes genre or medievaland Renaissance republicanism in general, but a tradition ofFlorentine imperialist republicanism dating back to the latethirteenth-century, based on the twin notions of liberty at homeand empire abroad. Weaving together themes and topics drawn fromcontemporary Florentine political debate, Medicean ritual andRenaissance triumphalism, this study explores how Machiavelli inhis chancery writings and theoretical works promoted the longstanding aspirations of Florence to become a great and expandingempire, modelled on the example of the ancient Roman republic. Thisis a distinctive an

Natural Resources and Economic Development, first published in2005, explores a key paradox: why is natural resource exploitationnot yielding greater benefits to the poor economies of Africa, Asiaand Latin America? Part I examines this paradox both through ahistorical review of resource use and development and throughexamining current theories which explain the under-performance oftoday's resource-abundant economies, and proposes a frontierexpansion hypothesis as an alternative explanation. Part IIdevelops models to analyse the key economic factors underlying landexpansion and water use in developing countries. Part III exploresfurther the 'dualism within dualism' structure of resourcedependency, rural poverty and resource degradation withindeveloping countries, and through illustrative countrycase-studies, proposes policy and institutional reforms necessaryfor successful resource-based development.

The impact of protectionism is currently a contentious policyissue. This book evaluates the effects of protectionism on theBritish interwar economy. In contrast to most studies of the periodand the conclusions of orthodox economic theory, Kitson and Solomoushow that the introduction of the General Tariff in 1932 provided asubstantial stimulus to the domestic economy - a stimulus which canhelp to explain the trend improvement in British economic growth inthe 1930s. The authors show that the tariff made encouraging importsubstitution and macroeconomic expansion. The empirical evidence isexamined at two levels. First, a sectoral study shows that thenewly protected sector of the 1930s saw an improvement inperformance following the introduction of the tariff. Secondly, thelarge fall in manufacturing imports generated favourable effects onmacroeconomic performance by helping to reduce the importpropensity of the economy. The policy implication of this study isthat trade policies should be constructed in the contex

This volume examines just why and in what sense, Sir KarlPopper's view of empirical falsifiability as the distinguishingcharacteristic of science has found appeal among economists. Thelimitations of this tenet, both for a philosophy of science and asa guideline to economic inquiry, are examined, as are several ofthe proposed alternatives.

In mainstream economic theory money functions as an instrumentfor the circulation of commodities or for keeping a stock of liquidwealth. In neither case is it considered fundamental to theproduction of goods or the distribution of income. Augusto Grazianichallenges traditional theories of monetary production, arguingthat a modern economy based on credit cannot be understood withouta focus on the administration of credit flows. He argues thatmarket asset configuration depends not upon consumer preferencesand available technologies but on how money and credit are managed.A strong exponent of the circulation theory of monetary production,Graziani presents an original and perhaps controversial argumentthat will stimulate debate on the topic.

Based on the author's graduate course taught over many years inseveral physics departments, this book takes a 'reductionist' viewof statistical mechanics, while describing the main ideas andmethods underlying its applications. It implicitly assumes that thephysics of complex systems as observed is connected to fundamentalphysical laws represented at the molecular level by Newtonianmechanics or quantum mechanics. Organised into three parts, thefirst section describes the fundamental principles of equilibriumstatistical mechanics. The next section describes applications tophases of increasing density and order: gases, liquids and solids;it also treats phase transitions. The final section deals withdynamics, including a careful account of hydrodynamic theories andlinear response theory. This textbook is suitable for a one yeargraduate course in statistical mechanics for physicists, chemistsand chemical engineers. Problems are included following eachchapter, with solutions to selected problems provided.

The Great Inflation in the 1960s and 1970s, notes award-winning columnist Robert J. Samuelson, played a crucial role in transforming American politics, economy, and everyday life. The direct consequences included stagnation in living standards, a growing belief both in America and abroad that the great-power status of the United States was ending, and Ronald Reagan s election to the presidency in 1980. But that is only half the story. The end of high inflation led to two decades of almost uninterrupted economic growth, rising stock prices and ever-increasing home values. Paradoxically, this prolonged prosperity triggered the economic and financial collapse of 2008 and 2009 by making Americans from bank executives to ordinary homeowners overconfident, complacent, and careless. The Great Inflation and its Aftermath , Samuelson contends, demonstrated that we have not yet escaped the boom-and-bust cycles common in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This is a sobering tale essential for anyone wh
