International Finance

In this incisive new book, Michael Mandelbaum argues that the era marked by an expansive American foreign policy is coming to an end. During the seven decades from the U.S. entry into World War II in 1941 to the present, economic constraints rarely limited what the United States did in the world. Now that will change. The country's soaring deficits, fueled by the huge costs of the financial crash and of its entitlement programs - Social Security and Medicare - will compel a more modest American international presence.

Investimenti, mutui, tassi di interesse, risparmio, inflazione, spread, piani pensionistici: la finanza non è una materia fredda e astratta, ma una presenza molto concreta nella vita di ciascuno di noi.

Barreras y distancias van quedando atrás. Día a día vivimos interconectados con los demás habitantes del mundo a través de un chat, una red social, una compra electrónica, una venta de productos nativos, una clase virtual o un club de fans oficial. Estamos sumergidos, sin querer, en un proceso que no termina y lo llamamos globalización. Sin embargo, este fenómeno que nos interconecta trae consigo una serie de retos y desafíos que afectan el modelo económico, el comercio mundial y los patrones de convivencia tal cual los conocemos.

Im WM-Finale 1986 musste sich die DFB-Elf der argentinischen Auswahl um Diego Maradona mit 2:3 geschlagen geben. Trotzdem durften sich die Westdeutschen als Weltmeister fühlen, denn in diesem Jahr exportierte die Bundesrepublik erstmals mehr Güter als jeder andere Staat. Das Land war »Exportweltmeister« – Champion in einer Disziplin, die nicht nur das Fundament für unseren Wohlstand bildet: Die deutsche Exportstärke ist Bestandteil des Nationalstolzes und Hinweis auf den exzellenten Ruf der Waren »Made in Germany«.

An Indien scheiden sich die Geister. Obwohl oder gerade weil kaum jemand im Westen dieses widersprüchliche Land versteht. Zwischen Slums und Prunk, zwischen Yoga und Hightech, zwischen Bollywoodkultur und Kastenwesen ist uns das Land, dessen Bedeutung für die Weltgemeinschaft immer größer wird, ein Rätsel geblieben.

The world’s a mess. Why should you care? Our world is remarkably automated. Resources remain in abundant supply. Life should be so simple. So prosperous. And yet, the vast majority of people still aren’t making a decent living. America was built on principles of personal freedom, rugged individualism, and self-sufficiency; no country has ever accumulated more power and wealth, abused it less, or used that power more to advance the human condition. However, over the last 50 years, our freedoms have been threatened by mounting personal, corporate, and government debt.

The global economy is entering an era of protracted stagnation, similar to what Japan has experienced for over a decade.

In the wake of the 2008 financial crash, Daniel W. Drezner, like so many others, looked at the smoking ruins of the global economy and wondered why global economic governance structure had failed so spectacularly, and what could be done to reform them in the future. But then a funny thing happened. As he surveyed their actions in the wake of the crash, he realized that the evidence pointed to the exact opposite conclusion: global economic governance had succeeded.

In State Capitalism, Joshua Kurlantzick ranges across the world - China, Thailand, Brazil, Russia, South Africa, Turkey, and more - and argues that the increase in state capitalism across the globe has, on balance, contributed to a decline in democracy. He isolates some of the reasons for state capitalism's resurgence: the fact that globalization favors economies of scale in the most critical industries and the widespread rejection of the Washington Consensus in the face of the problems that have plagued the world economy in recent years.

What if we could hit the reset button on the way we create money, work, commerce, and community? This is not an idle question, for technology now enables us to hit that reset button and organize the creation of money, work, commerce, and community in new ways. If we could start from scratch, what would a new system look like? To answer that, we must understand why the current system is failing. The current system is based on five principles that are assumed to be true.
