Allin Cottrell Knihy

Jsme přesvědčeni, že je třeba spojit tři klíčové ideje - pracovní teorii hodnoty, kybernetickou koordinaci a participativní demokracii - jako alternativu k liberální trojici cen, trhů a palamentu píší autoři Kybersocialismu v úvodu k jeho českému vydání. Autorská dvojice Allin Cottrell a Paul Cockshott vychází z kritiky názorů Friedricha Hayeka a Ludwiga Misese o "nemožnosti socialismu", kterými se nechali inspirovat nejen tvůrci české ekonomické transformace, ale i mnoho levicových intelektuálů a politiků. Kniha se zabývá modelem společnosti založeném na společenském vlastnictví výrobních prostředků, jenž spojuje systém sofistikované koordinace ekonomických aktivit s přímou demokracií inspirovanou antickým Řeckem.

One of the major financial market events of the 1980s was the precipitous rise of depository institution failures including banks, savings and loan associations, and credit unions. Not since the 1930s has there been a similar period of turmoil in these industries. The events of the 1980s have inspired a renewed interest in the causes and cost of financial institution failure and several questions that had seldom been asked in the post-World War II economics literature have resurfaced Why do financial institutions fail? What are the costs of their failure? How do they differ from other firms and industries? What are the implications for financial market regulation? The Causes and Costs of Depository Institution Failures critically surveys and extends previous analyses of these questions. Audience: Scholars and researchers in the areas of money and banking, financial institutions, and financial markets, as well as regulators and policymakers.
