Better Money
The recent rise of dollar, pound, and euro inflation rates has rekindled the debate over potential alternative monies, particularly gold and Bitcoin. Though Bitcoin has been much discussed in recent years, a basic understanding of how it and gold would work as monetary standards is rare. Accessibly written by a pioneering economist, Better Money explains and evaluates gold, fiat, and Bitcoin standards without hype. White uses simple supply-and-demand analysis to explain how these standards work, evaluating their relative merits and explaining their response to shocks, allowing for informed comparisons between them. This book addresses common misunderstandings of the gold standard and Bitcoin, using historical evidence to review the history of money with emphasis on the contest between market and government provision. Known for his work on alternative monetary institutions, White offers a reasoned discussion of which standard is most likely to provide a better money.

In 27 ausgewählten Beiträgen, die anlässlich seines 65. Geburtstags in dem vorliegenden Band erstmals gesammelt herausgegeben werden, spannt er in drei Kapiteln einen Bogen von der für ihn grundlegenden reformatorischen Theologie über die Gegenwartsbedeutung der innerprotestantischen Kirchenunionen sowie die theologischen Vordenker des 19. und 20.

Grenzen der Homogenisierung
»The world is flat!« – So lautet eine Gegenwartsdiagnose, die transnationale Konzerne als Wegbereiter globaler Homogenisierung feiert. Nicole Mayer-Ahuja zeigt, dass dieser Homogenisierung Grenzen gesetzt sind. Die Analyse der Softwareprogrammierungsbranche in Deutschland und Indien verdeutlicht, wie markant sich Unternehmensstrategien und Arbeitskraftnutzung unterscheiden und wie sie durch ökonomische, politische und gesellschaftliche Strukturen vor Ort beeinflusst werden.
