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".

Jamais ils n'en avaient parlé. De quoi ? De ce qui est au centre de la société française, dans tous les domaines : le mépris. Tapie, Pinault, Onfray, Sarkozy, Hidalgo, Luchini et bien d'autres... Tous ont un point commun : à un moment ou à un autre, ils ont été confrontés à cette épreuve dont ils ont fait une force. Avec une liberté de ton à laquelle nous ne sommes pas habitués, ils se sont confiés à Sébastien Le Fol.

Un monde dans lequel nous, les humains, sommes les moteurs de notre société, de notre environnement, de notre économie et de notre réalité.

Qu'ont en commun le désastre financier de la Ford Edsel, le développement rapide des Xérox et les incroyables scandales de General Electric et de Texas Gulf Sulphur ? Ce sont des exemples emblématiques d'entreprises qui se sont définies par un moment de gloire ou de notoriété particulier. L'histoire de Wall Street est pétrie de grandeur et de décadence, d'incertitude et d'instabilité, en un mot, d'aventure.

Klaus Brinkbäumer und Stephan Lamby berichten von den zahlreichen Fronten. Nach vier Jahren einer fatalen Präsidentschaft sind die USA eine wütende, nur noch im Hass vereinte Nation.

Eleven years later in Africa, she spotted a young boy wearing that very sweater, with her name still on the tag inside.

Filled with colorful characters and history, Double Entry takes us from the ancient origins of accounting in Mesopotamia to the frontiers of modern finance. At the heart of the story is double-entry bookkeeping: the first system that allowed merchants to actually measure the worth of their businesses. Luca Pacioli - monk, mathematician, alchemist, and friend of Leonardo da Vinci - incorporated Arabic mathematics to formulate a system that could work across all trades and nations.

This book is the first comprehensive account of how Australia attained the world's highest living standards within a few decades of European settlement, and how the nation has sustained an enviable level of income to the present. Beginning with the Aboriginal economy at the end of the 18th century, Ian McLean argues that Australia's remarkable prosperity across nearly two centuries was reached and maintained by several shifting factors.

This groundbreaking book is the first to both identify the wide range of political risks that global firms face and show investors how to effectively manage them. Written by two of the world's leading figures in political risk management, it reveals that, while the world remains exceedingly risky for businesses, it is by no means incomprehensible. The authors provide a wealth of unique methods, tools, and concepts to help understand political risk, showing when and how political risk analysis works - and when it does not.

How did a small southwest town transform itself into a hotbed of research science, advanced technology, and money? Tracking key figures in Santa Fe's emerging industries, Ed Regis explains how entrepreneurial scientists are using complexity theory and powerful, experimental computer programs to create practical - and profitable - applications.

From the family to the workplace to the marketplace, every facet of our lives is shaped by cooperative interactions. Yet everywhere we look, we are confronted by proof of how difficult cooperation can be - snarled traffic, polarized politics, overexploited resources, social problems that go ignored. The benefits to oneself of a free ride on the efforts of others mean that collective goals often are not met. But compared to most other species, people actually cooperate a great deal. Why is this?

Having awakened from its communist slumber, Russia in the roaring '90s is a place where everything and everyone is for sale and fortunes can be made and lost overnight. Into this maelstrom steps rookie Wall Street Journal reporter Matthew Brzezinski. Assigned to make sense of the financial markets, he is instantly plunged into the crazed world of Russian capitalism, where corrupt Moscow bankers and American carpetbaggers preside over the greatest boom and bust in international financial history. Brzezinski knows he's in over his head; what he comes to realize is that "so is the entire country".

Funny, engaging, and sharply pointed in his appraisal of the sports complex bankrupting our cities, the celebrated author of A People’s History of Sports in the United States returns with a hard-hitting indictment of big business and the corrupt practices that are ruining the sports we love.When attending a baseball game becomes a luxury reserved for the wealthy few and cities build multi-million dollar stadiums while letting their bridges crumble, the price of sports in this country demands reassessment.

Robert B. Reich urges Americans to get beyond mere outrage about the nation’s increasingly concentrated wealth and corrupt politics in order to mobilize and to take back our economy and democracy. Americans can’t rely only on getting good people elected, Reich argues, because nothing positive happens in Washington unless good people outside Washington are organized to help make those things happen after the election. But in order to be effectively mobilized, we need to see the big picture.

Rationing: It’s a word and idea that people often loathe and fear. Health care expert Henry Aaron has compared mentioning the possibility of rationing to "shouting an obscenity in church". Yet societies in fact ration food, water, medical care, and fuel all the time, with those who can pay the most getting the most. As Nobel Prize-winning economist Amartya Sen has said, the results can be "thoroughly unequal and nasty". In Any Way You Slice It, Stan Cox shows that rationing is not just a quaint practice restricted to World War II memoirs and 1970s gas station lines. Instead, he persuasively argues that rationing is a vital concept for our fragile present.
