Managing without Growth, Second Edition
Author: Peter A. Victor
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 1785367382
Category : Economic development
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
Ten years after the publication of the first edition of this influential book, the evidence is even stronger that human economies are overwhelming the regenerative capacity of the planet. This book explains why long-term economic growth is infeasible, and why, especially in advanced economies, it is also undesirable. Simulations based on real data show that managing without growth is a better alternative

Author: Karl E. Case
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780130407016
Category : Macroeconomics
Languages : en
Pages : 540
Book Description
The new edition of a textbook introducing the fundamental concepts and methods of macroeconomics. Blending economic theory, institutional material, and real-world applications, the authors discuss measuring national output and income, the affects of government and fiscal policy, money supply and the Federal Reserve system, and other issues of national macroeconomics. There is also a shorter section devoted to international issues, discussing comparative advantage and protectionism, balance of payments and exchange rates, and the economics of developing and transitional economies. The CD-ROM contains tutorial walk-throughs for each chapter summarizing key concepts, as well as end-of-chapter quizzes and 20 graphs related material in the text.

The New Dynamic Public Finance
Author: Narayana R. Kocherlakota
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400835275
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
Optimal tax design attempts to resolve a well-known trade-off: namely, that high taxes are bad insofar as they discourage people from working, but good to the degree that, by redistributing wealth, they help insure people against productivity shocks. Until recently, however, economic research on this question either ignored people's uncertainty about their future productivities or imposed strong and unrealistic functional form restrictions on taxes. In response to these problems, the new dynamic public finance was developed to study the design of optimal taxes given only minimal restrictions on the set of possible tax instruments, and on the nature of shocks affecting people in the economy. In this book, Narayana Kocherlakota surveys and discusses this exciting new approach to public finance. An important book for advanced PhD courses in public finance and macroeconomics, The New Dynamic Public Finance provides a formal connection between the problem of dynamic optimal taxation and dynamic principal-agent contracting theory. This connection means that the properties of solutions to principal-agent problems can be used to determine the properties of optimal tax systems. The book shows that such optimal tax systems necessarily involve asset income taxes, which may depend in sophisticated ways on current and past labor incomes. It also addresses the implications of this new approach for qualitative properties of optimal monetary policy, optimal government debt policy, and optimal bequest taxes. In addition, the book describes computational methods for approximate calculation of optimal taxes, and discusses possible paths for future research.

Work in a Warming World
Author: Carla Lipsig-Mummé
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 155339433X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
Global warming is perhaps the greatest challenge facing the twenty-first century. Environmental polices on the one hand, and economic and labour market polices on the other, often exist in separate silos creating a dilemma that Work in a Warming World confronts. The world of work - goods, services, and resources - produces most of the greenhouse gases created by human activity. In engaging essays, contributors demonstrate how the world of work and the labour movement need to become involved in the struggle to slow global warming, and the ways in which environmental and economic policies need to be linked dynamically in order to effect positive change. Addressing the dichotomy of competing public policies in a Canadian context, Work in a Warming World presents ways of creating an effective response to global warming and key building blocks toward a national climate strategy.
