This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This books presents a theory of economic development very different from the "stages of growth" hypothesis or strategies emphasizing foreign aid, trade, or regional association. Leaving these aside, the author breaks new ground by focusing on the use of domestic capital markets to stimulate economic performance. He suggests a "bootstrap" approach in which successful development would depend largely on policy choices made by national authorities in the developing countries themselves. Central to his theory is the freeing of domestic financial markets to allow interest rates to reflect the true scarcity of capital in a developing economy. His analysis leads to a critique of prevailing monetary theory and to a new view of the relation between money and physical capital—a view with policy implications for governments striving to overcome the vicious circle of inflation and stagnation. Examining the performance of South Korea, Taiwan, Brazil, and other countries, the author suggests that their success or failure has depended primarily on steps taken in the monetary sector. He concludes that monetary reform should take precedence over other development measures, such as tariff and tax reform or the encouragement of foreign capital investment. In addition to challenging much of the conventional wisdom of development, the author's revision of accepted monetary theory may be relevant for mature economies that face monetary problems.

Download or read book Capital, Accumulation, and Money written by L.D. Taylor and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capital, Accumulation, and Money: An Integration of Capital, Growth, and Monetary Theory is a book about capital. A root concept of capital is developed which allows for most existing concepts of capital to be unified and related to one another in consistent fashion. Such a root concept of capital offers a framework for integrating monetary and capital theory, and for analyzing the functioning of an economy, whether that economy is in a steady state of subsistence or in a process of sustainable growth. Specifically, it is shown that a conservation principle emerges that both implies and imposes a variety of constraints on the macro behavior of an economy, constraints which make for straightforward understanding and analysis of such concepts as the real stock of money, real-balance effects, and the general price level. New and illuminating insights are also provided into aggregate supply and demand, natural and money rates of interest, the relationship between real and monetary economies, and economic growth and development.

Download or read book Money, Growth and Stability written by Frank Hahn and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1985-01-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sequel to Frank Hahn's "Equilibrium and Macroeconomics" presents his theoretical work published over the past thirty years. The twentyone contributions have been selected on the basis of their relevance to current economic debate, and they comprise some of Hahn's most widely cited and influential essays.Organized in five parts - Money, Non-Walrasian Equilibria, Stability, Growth, and Miscellaneous - most of the essays concentrate on monetary theory and economic dynamics (or stability). In the first instance, Hahn shows that classical Arrow-Debreu general equilibrium theory cannot be used for monetary theory. A reconstruction of this theory turns out to have some surprising welfare economics implications. Concerning dynamics, Hahn's main preoccupations are with price dynamics that allow trading at "false" prices and with the stability of growth equilibrium with heterogeneous capital goods, which remains important to current theorizing on rational expectations equilibria.The remaining essays cover a variety of topics such as the influence of uncertainty on savings and excess capacity in imperfect competition. The book also includes an introduction by Hahn commenting on each essay, and his Jevons Lecture, "In Praise of Economic Theory."Frank Hahn is Professor of Economics at the University of Cambridge and the author of "Equilibrium and Macroeconomics" (MIT Press 1985) and "Money and Inflation "(an MIT Press paperback).

Download or read book The Growth Spiral written by Hans Christoph Binswanger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-14 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops a new theory of the modern economy. Conventional economic theory is (still) based on an essentially static notion of equilibrium. In contrast, this book offers an analysis of the economic process based on a truly dynamic approach. It understands modern economic activity as manifesting itself in a growth spiral. There are two main drivers of the dynamics of this spiral: steady money creation in the banking system, on the one hand; and the continuous inflow of energy and raw materials through the exploitation of natural resources, on the other. Both driving forces are generally neglected by the conventional theory. Understanding their role is absolutely essential for preventing our economy from being more and more exposed to financial and ecological crises. This book offers important insights about the functioning of the modern economy and addresses the specialist as well as the interested lay reader.

Download or read book Right on the Money written by Colleen Francis and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Right on the Money provides readers with a proven, realistic game plan to redraw maps for sales and marketing in a topsy-turvy world. Even before COVID-19 upended lives and forced people to reimagine every interaction, “business as usual” tottered on its last legs. An overwhelmingly digital economy dispatched a bricks-and-mortar mindset and gave rise to a brave new mobile world. While top sellers adapted from a sell-to model to a buy-from environment—in which customers move through much of the buying cycle before ever engaging sellers—others stuck to their guns and found themselves condemned to failure. The bottom line: accept and embrace change or be done in sales. Right on the Money offers a compelling blueprint to understand and win over today’s buyers. It also offers a wealth of field-tested, actionable steps to excel in a marketplace far more digital, far less centralized, incredibly dynamic and much more lucrative than ever before. Colleen Francis sheds light on the current sales landscape and helps readers align personal and organizational strategies to win.
