Edwards offers a thought-provoking and timely account of the day-to-day experience of living in America's neglected neighborhoods.

What if your job disappeared without anyone admitting it was ever a job at all? Welcome to the gig economy: a labor system built on loopholes, powered by apps, and sold as freedom. From Uber and DoorDash to Amazon Flex and Instacart, millions of people are working without being called workers with no benefits, no protections, and no boss to complain to when something goes wrong. In THE GIG ECONOMY, JJ exposes how tech companies rewrote the rules of work. This isn’t a book about the future of labor, it’s about the present we’ve already allowed.

Neighbors vacation and travel via exemptions from work. They refer to the exemptions as pensions and the issue them to themselves. They send the bill to you. In the private sector one is not compensated now for work done in the past. Women have a nagging suspicion that they are still limited by hidden arrangements. It is difficult to give these arrangements a name. In The Coverture Arrangement Veil, Chuck Goodness RN uses a lens molded from 30 years at the bedside to remove the veil of obscurity from what narratives cloak.

In ihrem neuen Hörbuch konfrontiert Claudia Kemfert uns mit den heute neu gestellten klimapolitischen Fragen und deckt auf, wo Mythen gefährliche Realitäten verschleiern.

Ein Hörbuch für alle, die sich der Illusion verweigern, dass es noch einfache Antworten gibt. Klima und Wirtschaft lassen sich nicht gegeneinander ausspielen.

This edition of Super Imperialism is the finalized version of the analysis that Michael Hudson first published in the wake of President Nixon severing the dollar's link to gold in August 1971. Closing the gold window had been imminent since the London Gold Pool was disbanded in 1968 in response to the U.S. overseas military spending that had pushed the balance of payments into steadily deepening deficit since the Korean War (1950-51).

Brought to you by Penguin. The Bank of England pull back the curtain on how money really works, and what happens when it doesn’t. Where does money come from? What gives a £1 coin its value? And whose job is it to actually print banknotes? Most of us think about money every day. But we tend...

In the 1980s, countries across Asia stunned the world with meteoric economic growth—but when eyes turn to Africa today, it is often to lament corruption, violence, and poverty rather than to scout the next developmental frontrunners. Yet some African nations, even in the face of challenging geography and the crippling legacies of colonialism, have found remarkable success.

Crash the Fed exposes how this illusion was built—and how easily it can be dismantled. When a private banking cartel can print money at will, the only way to take away its power is to stop giving that money value. You don’t need politicians to “end the Fed.” You don’t need another election. You just need to understand how their system works—and how to walk away from it.

The dark horse of the New World Order was never Communism, Socialism or Fascism: It has always been Technocracy! Started in the 1930s, re-introduced by the Trilateral Commission in 1973 as the “New International Economic Order,” Technocrats have staged a sweeping coup d’état in plain sight in Washington, DC. during the Trump presidency. The Dark Enlightenment wants to turn us into a monarchy. Tokenization is flipping us into an asset-based economic system where you “will own nothing”. AI is shoving us into a digital Gulag.

The story culminates in the birth of The Cloud IPO—not a company, but the first Global DAO: a borderless, lore-driven protocol for human coordination.

They say we’re broke. They say taxes are necessary. But the richest people on Earth don’t pay them and never have. This book exposes the quiet engine behind modern inequality: the global tax system, gutted by design. The billionaires didn’t cheat the rules. They wrote them. And while you pay more every year in rent, bills, and invisible fees, they move their money through shell companies, offshore trusts, and loopholes hidden in plain sight. Off the Books is not a theory.

Die Welt steht an einem Scheideweg: Die alte internationale Ordnung zerbricht, doch statt einer gerechteren Alternative drohen sozialdarwinistische Machtkämpfe mit unvorhersehbaren Konsequenzen.

Patrick Kaczmarczyk liefert eine schonungslose Bestandsaufnahme der globalen Wirtschaftspolitik und ihrer Fehlentwicklungen.

In Capital Offence award-winning investor Paul Musson shows how the world is becoming increasingly divided on many fronts. One of the root causes of this is that well-intended policymakers have drunk the something-from-nothing Kool-Aid and are convinced that there is such a thing as a free lunch. There isn't. They believe that debt-fueled spending is what leads to economic prosperity. It doesn't.
