Fighting climate change, saving democracy, and eradicating poverty are urgent global challenges, yet the world's leaders continue to pursue outdated policies that focus on one while worsening the tradeoffs between each of them. Shared Prosperity in a Fractured World shows how the nations of the world can achieve all three objectives.

In the 1980s, Phil Bellfy pondered the question: Why does Sault, Ontario, appear to be so prosperous, while the "Sault" on the American side has fallen into such a deplorable state? Could the answer be that the "American side" was little more than a "resource colony"--or to use the academic jargon of "Conflict and Change" Sociology--an "Internal Colony."

Niko Paech forderte 2012 in »Befreiung vom Überfluss« eine radikale Abkehr von diesem Weg. Er warnte vor den falschen Versprechen »grünen« Wachstums und prognostizierte, dass trotz aller Klimagipfel und »nachhaltigen« Produkte die Zerstörung der Umwelt weiter voranschreiten würde. Und er behielt recht. Sein legendäres Manifest prägte die Debatte über den Kapitalismus. Nun liegt es in einer aktualisierten Auflage vor, die von Fridays for Future über Pandemie bis zur wachsenden Politikverdrossenheit neue Entwicklungen einbezieht. Paechs Gedanken sind heute aktueller denn je.

From $5 workdays and assembly lines to failed jungle utopias and antisemitic newspapers, Ford traces how one man’s obsession with control rewired labor, society, and even ideology. Henry Ford didn’t just manufacture vehicles — he mass-produced a system where people became parts, mobility became dependence, and efficiency became the highest virtue. Along the way, he inspired nations, built empires, and — whether he meant to or not — lit sparks that helped fuel one of history’s darkest regimes.

The dollar is everywhere. In your wallet. In your bank account. In your debt, your paycheck, your rent, your retirement — even your dreams. But what is it, really? This isn’t just a history of American money. It’s a story of belief. From revolution to global empire, In Green We Trust traces the rise of the dollar — not just as currency, but as mythology. Gold. Oil. Paper. Wars. Crashes. Promises. Lies. Every chapter unpacks how a piece of green paper became the most powerful object on Earth — and what happens when the world starts questioning what it’s really worth.

In Beyond Material Salvation, Licensed Insolvency Trustee Shawn Stack pulls back the curtain on Canada’s debt system, exposing how insolvency isn’t just about numbers—it’s about identity, shame, exploitation, and the stories we’re told about what we owe and to whom. With the insight of a professional and the compassion of someone who’s seen real people in crisis, Stack challenges the myths surrounding bankruptcy, credit counselling, and “financial responsibility.” He offers an unflinching look at how the system often rewards silence and shame while punishing honesty and vulnerability.

In American history, the prevailing narratives of the tumultuous late-nineteenth century focus on wealthy individuals and tycoons while downplaying the very high social and economic stresses they caused. The Age of Discontent reveals that it was not the tycoons, but rather the laborers and farmers, who in a great uprising of popular democracy reinvented the nation for the emerging industrial world never imagined by the Founders.

Kalkiism is a bold new vision for a world entering an era of exponential technology and material abundance. As capitalism, rooted in scarcity, reaches its limits, the book proposes a new paradigm — a fusion of data-driven economics and spiritual awakening. Grounded in Sanatana Dharma yet open to all, Kalkiism sees the figure of Kalki not just as a person, but as a global frequency of transformation. It calls for a pilot project in Nepal to model this new system, where dignity, cooperation, and inner knowledge guide decision-making.

Terence Lester was born into a two-parent household that later separated due to family conflict. In search of safety and stability, his mother moved him and his sister from place to place. Carrying the weight of that early trauma, Lester turned to gangs, became a juvenile delinquent, experienced homelessness, and at one point lived out of his car. He dropped out of high school. But Lester's story doesn't end there. He eventually returned to school, graduated as a fifth-year senior, and defied the odds by earning five degrees, including a PhD in public policy.

Вы удивитесь, обнаружив, как легко и логично объясняются многие парадоксы российской жизни, если взглянуть на них с точки зрения институциональной теории. Институты — это правила, которые не могут быть идеальными из-за возникающих сил трения — трансакционных издержек.

Dreihundert deutsche Männer, schrieb Walther Rathenau zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts, bestimmten die wirtschaftlichen Geschicke des Kontinents. Er meinte das enge Geflecht aus Bankiers, Industriekapitäns und Lobbyisten, das sich mit dem Aufstieg von Firmen wie der Allianz, Krupp oder Siemens herausgebildet hatte. Man kannte einander, man sprach miteinander – und man sprach sich ab. Bis in die 1990er Jahre prägte dieses Netzwerk namens »Deutschland AG« die Politik und die Unternehmenskultur in der Bundesrepublik.

Since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, capitalism has unleashed unimaginable growth in opportunity and prosperity. Gramm and Boudreaux look at the seven events and issues in American history that define, for most Americans, the role of government and how the 21st century world works.
