For centuries, Westerners have tried to ‘fix’ African economies. From the abolition of slavery onwards, missionaries, philanthropists, development economists and NGOs have arrived on the continent, full of good intentions and bad ideas. Their experiments have invariably gone awry, to the great surprise of all involved. In this short, bold story of Western economic thought about Africa, historian Bronwen Everill argues that these interventions fail because they start from a misguided premise: that African economies just need to be more like the West.

The reach of corporations into our lives via cards and apps has never been greater; many of us rarely use cash these days. But what we're told is a natural and inevitable move is the work of powerful interests. And the great battle of our time is the battle for ownership of the digital footprints that make up our lives.

Die Deutschen sind Sparweltmeister, viele haben Angst vor Inflation und Verschuldung. In einer fundierten Analyse deckt Marcel Fratzscher auf, warum wir uns oft täuschen, wenn es ums Geld geht.

Höchste Zeit, denn unser irrationales Verhältnis zum Geld spaltet die Gesellschaft - wirtschaftlich und sozial. Und es führt zu einer rasant wachsenden Ungleichheit. Bessere Vorsorge.

Free-market economists often have noted that there are winners and losers in a competitive capitalist world. The question of how to deal with the difficult real-life consequences faced by the losers, however, has largely been ignored. Populist politicians have tried repeatedly to address the issue by creating walls - of both the physical and economic kinds - to insulate communities and keep competition at bay. Economist Glenn Hubbard argues that because they delay needed adaptations to the ever-changing world, walls are essentially backward-looking and ultimately destined to fail.

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.
