Financial Literacy and Financial Education
It is a well-known saying that money does not buy happiness. But it certainly helps in life. It is important to have enough of it to satisfy our needs and to secure ourselves from emergency situations. That's what adults think. And what about the youth? What is their approach to money, what do they know about finances and how are their skills in everyday financial management coming along? What kind of knowledge and skills should be provided? Do young people in different countries represent similar or different approaches to financial matters? Using the results of a research on young people in Poland and Germany, the authors draw a picture of financial literacy. They furthermore present a number of recommendations that help developing the knowledge and the financial skills of young people in practice.

Schuldenberatung und Schuldenprävention als Soziale Arbeit
Die Schuldenberatung ist zwar ein wichtiges Praxisfeld der Sozialen Arbeit, doch deren aktuelle Ausrichtung wird kaum den gesteigerten Anforderungen gerecht. Denn: Jede Fachkraft in der Sozialen Arbeit trifft auf verschuldete Adressatinnen und Adressaten, ganz unabhängig von ihrem Arbeitsbereich. Auf Basis der theoretischen Grundlagen und der Entwicklungen bezüglich der Professionalisierung wird ein eigenes Konzept der Schuldenberatung als Soziale Arbeit entworfen, das diesen Herausforderungen gerecht wird. Den Kern des Buches bildet dabei die praktische Umsetzung. Hierfür werden neue Beratungsansätze bei Verschuldung und ein neues Modell der Schuldenprävention vorgestellt und gezeigt, wie gute Evaluation funktioniert. Das Buch richtet sich an Studierende, Lehrende, Fachkräfte und Forschende und hat die Schuldenberatung in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz im Blick.
Neuroeconomic and Behavioral Aspects of Decision Making
This proceedings volume presents the latest scientific research and trends in experimental economics, with particular focus on neuroeconomics. Derived from the 2016 Computational Methods in Experimental Economics (CMEE) conference held in Szczecin, Poland, this book features research and analysis of novel computational methods in neuroeconomics. Neuroeconomics is an interdisciplinary field that combines neuroscience, psychology and economics to build a comprehensive theory of decision making. At its core, neuroeconomics analyzes the decision-making process not only in terms of external conditions or psychological aspects, but also from the neuronal point of view by examining the cerebral con...
Alibaba's World
In September 2014, a Chinese company that most Americans had never heard of held the largest IPO in history - bigger than Google, Facebook and Twitter combined. Alibaba, now the world's largest e-commerce company, mostly escaped Western notice for over ten years, while building a customer base more than twice the size of Amazon's, and handling the bulk of e-commerce transactions in China. How did it happen? And what was it like to be along for such a revolutionary ride? In Alibaba's World, author Porter Erisman, one of Alibaba's first Western employees and its head of international marketing from 2000 to 2008, shows how Jack Ma, a Chinese schoolteacher who twice failed his college entrance e...
Choosing and Using Payment Instruments
Germans are still very fond of using cash. Of all direct payment transactions, cash accounts for an astounding 82% in terms of number, and for 58% in terms of value. With a new and unique dataset that combines transaction information with survey data on payment behaviour of German consumers, we shed light on how individuals choose payment instruments and why cash remains so important. We propose a two-stage empirical framework which jointly explains credit card ownership and the use of cash. Our results indicate that the pattern of cash usage is compatible with systematic economic decision making. Consumers decide upon the adoption of payment cards and then use available payment media accord...
