Free Download Jingyuan Ma, "Regulating Data Monopolies: A Law and Economics Perspective"
English | ISBN: 981168765X | 2022 | 262 pages | PDF | 6 MB
This book analyzes the business model of enterprises in the digital economy by taking an economic and comparative perspective. The aim of this book is to conduct an in-depth analysis of the anti-competitive behavior of companies who monopolize data, and put forward the necessity of regulating data monopoly by exploring the causes and characteristics of their anti-competitive behavior. It studies four aspects of the differences between data monopoly and traditional monopolistic behavior, namely defining the relevant market for data monopolies, the entry barrier, the problem of determining the dominant position of data monopoly, and the influence on consumer welfare. It points out the limitations of traditional regulatory tools and discusses how new regulatory methods could be developed within the competition legal framework to restrict data monopolies. It proposes how economic analytical tools used in traditional anti-monopoly law are facing challenges and how competition enforcement agencies could adjust regulatory methods to deal with new anti-competitive behavior by data monopolies.

Free Download Political Economy After Economics: Scientific Method and Radical Imagination By David Laibman
2011 | 256 Pages | ISBN: 0415619297 | EPUB | 6 MB
This re-incorporation of economics into political economy is one (small, but not insignificant) element in a larger project: to place all of the resources of present-day social-scientific research at the service of increasing democracy, in an ultimate direction toward socialism in the classic sense. An economics-enriched political economy is, above all, empowering: working people in general can calculate, build models, think theoretically, and contribute to a human-worthy future, rather than leaving all this to their "betters."

Natural resources management has two principal dimensions : Science-illuminated (earth, space, hydrological, pedological, information, etc. sciences) management of local resources (waters, soils, bioresources, minerals, rocks, sediments, etc.) in an ecologically-sustainable manner, and Value-addition through processing of natural products, through the application of technology is most marked in the case of some mineral products. The wellness of a community is dependent upon the security of food, water, environment and energy. Such a security is best realised through science-illuminated (earth,

Free Download Sebastian J. Goerg, "Experiments in Organizational Economics "
English | ISBN: 1785609645 | 2016 | 304 pages | EPUB | 4 MB
‘Experiments in Organizational Economics’ highlights the importance of replicating previous economic experiments. Replication enables experimental findings to be subjected to rigorous scrutiny. Despite this obvious advantage, direct replication remains relatively scant in economics. One possible explanation for this situation is that publication outlets favor novel work over tests of robustness. Readers will gain a better understanding of the role that replication plays in economic discovery as well as valuable insights into the robustness of previously reported findings.

Free Download Economics and World History: Myths and Paradoxes By Paul Bairoch
1995 | 200 Pages | ISBN: 0226034631 | PDF | 5 MB
Paul Bairoch sets the record straight on twenty commonly held myths about economic history. Among these are that free trade and population growth have historically led to periods of economic growth; that a move away from free trade caused the Great Depression; and that colonial powers in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries became rich through the exploitation of the Third World. Bairoch argues that these beliefs are based on insufficient knowledge and misguided interpretations of the economic history of the United States, Europe, and the Third World."A challenging and readable introduction to some major controversial themes in modern international economic history."-Peter J. Cain, International History Review"Paul Bairoch sheds fascinating light on many of the accepted truths of modern economic history: an intriguing account, well executed."-Alfred L. Malabre, Jr., Economics Editor, Wall Street Journal

Free Download Economics Ethics and Religion: Jewish, Christian and Muslim Economic Thought By Rodney Wilson
1997 | 244 Pages | ISBN: 0333626427 | PDF | 15 MB
There is a revival of interest by economists in ethical issues and beliefs, and by moral philosophers and theologians in economics. This book is intended to make a contribution to this cross-fertilisation of ideas. Rodney Wilson has undertaken an extensive survey of Jewish, Christian and Muslim views on economics, and reviewed the rapidly expanding business ethics literature from a religious perspective. The juxtaposition of the work of theologians and moral philosophers with that of economists results in some interesting comparisons.
