International environmental agreements provide a basis for countries to address ecological problems on a global scale. However, countries are heterogeneous with respect to their economic structures and to the problems relating to the environment that they encounter. Therefore, economic externalities and global environmental conflicts are common and can cause problems in implementation and compliance with international agreements. Economics of International Environmental Agreements illuminates those issues and factors that might cause some countries or firms to take different positions on common problems. This book explores why international environmental agreements deal with some problems su...
In recent decades, the intensification of unpredictable events including the Covid-19 outbreak, Brexit, trade warfare, religion-inspired terrorism and civil wars, and climate change has resulted in serious loss of human lives and property, a decrease in biodiversity and natural hazards (with long-term negative impacts on environment), and impeded social and economic development. Economics and Engineering of Unpredictable Events: Modelling, Planning and Policies provides an integrated view of the management of unpredictable events incorporating three major perspectives: economic management, environmental planning and engineering models. Contributors from economics, planning, regional science,...
This book exposes the inherent contradictions of neoliberalism. The myth of limitless growth ignores the reality of resource constraints and fuels a global upward transfer of wealth. Meanwhile, a fractured global economy and intensifying class warfare chip away at neoliberalism's foundation. As inequality spirals and social justice crumbles, the model increasingly serves a privileged few at the expense of the majority. This undermines the Enlightenment ideal of using liberal democracy to improve lives in the age of mass politics, threatening neoliberalism's very survival.
The advent of the fourth industrial revolution, Industry 4.0, brings about both opportunities and challenges that are likely to set developed economies even farther apart from emerging economies.

Atatürk, emperyalist güçlere karşı başlattığı Milli Mücadele’yi halkından aldığı güç ve destek ile başarıya ulaştırmıştır. Cumhuriyeti de halkçılık ilkesi üzerine inşa ederek; ekonomik, siyasi ve sosyal politikaları halkın menfaatleri doğrultusunda halk ile beraber gerçekleştirmeye çalışmıştır. Çalışmamızın sınırlarını belirleyen 1929-1932 döneminde Türkiye, 1929 Dünya Ekonomik Buhranının getirdiği büyük bir krizin etkisi altındadır. Ayrıca çok partili hayata geçmek için kurulan Serbest Cumhuriyet Fırkası denemesinin başarısızlıkla sonuçlanması da siyasi bir kriz ortaya çıkarmıştır. Atatürk, bu süreçte yaşanan ekonomik ve siyasal krizi yönetirken yine halkına başvurmuştur. Büyük bir yurt seyahatine çıkarak halkının sorunlarını teşhis etmiş, kriz yönetimini ve kriz sonrası politikaları bu seyahatlerde edindiği izlenimler doğrultusunda şekillendirmiştir.
