Описание: The top 1 percent of Americans control 40 percent of the nation 's wealth. And, as Joseph E. Stiglitz explains, while those at the top enjoy the best health care, education, and benefits of wealth, they fail to realize that their fate is bound up with how the other 99 percent live. Stiglitz draws on his deep understanding of economics to show that growing inequality is not inevitable: moneyed interests compound their wealth by stifling true, dynamic capitalism. They have made America the most unequal advanced industrial country while crippling growth, trampling on the rule of law, and undermining democracy. The result: a divided society that cannot tackle its most pressing problems. With characteristic insight, Stiglitz examines our current state, then teases out its implications for democracy, for monetary and budgetary policy, and for globalization. He closes with a plan for a more just and prosperous future.

Описание: If they are to survive, cities need healthy chunks of the world`s ecosystems to persist; yet cities, like parasites, grow and prosper by local destruction of these very ecosystems. This book helps you explore both the positive and the negative sides of the relationship between cities, the environment, and the future of global biodiversity.

Описание: Johan A. Lybeck uses European and American case studies to review thirty bank resolutions from the last financial crisis and to outline the requirements for successful bank resolutions in the future. Via in-depth analysis of recent legislation, he emphasizes the need for taxpayer-funded bail-outs to create a viable banking system.
