This volume is a successor of sorts to an earlier study, Toward Renewed Economic Growth in Latin America (Institute for International Economics; 1986), which blazed the trail for the market-oriented economic reforms that were adopted in Latin America in the subsequent years. It again presents the work of a group of leading economists (*) who were asked to think about the nature of the economic policy agenda that the region should be pursuing after the better part of a decade that was punctuated by crises, achieved disappointingly slow growth, and saw no improvement in the region's highly skewed income distribution. It diagnoses the first-generation (liberalizing and stabilizing) reforms that are still lacking, the complementary second-generation (institutional) reforms that are necessary to provide the institutional infrastructure of a market economy with an egalitarian bias, and the new initiatives that are needed to crisis-proof the economies of the region to end its perpetual series of crises.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Capital'
Unfinished at the time of Marx's death in 1883 and first published with a preface by Frederick Engels in 1894, the third volume of "Das Kapital" strove to combine the theories and concepts of the two previous volumes in order to prove conclusively that capitalism is inherently unworkable as a permanent system for society. Here, Marx asserts controversially that - regardless of the efforts of individual capitalists, public authorities or even generous philanthropists - any market economy is inevitably doomed to endure a series of worsening, explosive crises leading finally to complete collapse. But he also offers an inspirational and compelling prediction: that the end of capitalism will culminate, ultimately, in the birth of a far greater form of society. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'The End of Poverty: Economic Possibilities for Our Time'
Celebrated economist Jeffrey Sachs has a plan to eliminate extreme poverty around the world by 2025. If you think that is too ambitious or wildly unrealistic, you need to read this book. His focus is on the one billion poorest individuals around the world who are caught in a poverty trap of disease, physical isolation, environmental stress, political instability, and lack of access to capital, technology, medicine, and education. The goal is to help these people reach the first rung on the "ladder of economic development" so they can rise above mere subsistence level and achieve some control over their economic futures and their lives. To do this, Sachs proposes nine specific steps, which he explains in great detail in The End of Poverty. Though his plan certainly requires the help of rich nations, the financial assistance Sachs calls for is surprisingly modest--more than is now provided, but within the bounds of what has been promised in the past. For the U.S., for instance, it would mean raising foreign aid from just 0.14 percent of GNP to 0.7 percent. Sachs does not view such help as a handout but rather an investment in global economic growth that will add to the security of all nations. In presenting his argument, he offers a comprehensive education on global economics, including why globalization should be embraced rather than fought, why international institutions such as the United Nations, International Monetary Fund, and World Bank need to play a strong role in this effort, and the reasons why extreme poverty exists in the midst of great wealth. He also shatters some persistent myths about poor people and shows how developing nations can do more to help themselves.
Despite some crushing statistics, The End of Poverty is a hopeful book. Based on a tremendous amount of data and his own experiences working as an economic advisor to the UN and several individual nations, Sachs makes a strong moral, economic, and political case for why countries and individuals should battle poverty with the same commitment and focus normally reserved for waging war. This important book not only makes the end of poverty seem realistic, but in the best interest of everyone on the planet, rich and poor alike. --Shawn Carkonen [via]

English economist and professor Thomas R. Malthus (1766-1834) caused great public controversy among the optimistic positivitists of his day when his Essay on the Principle of Population (1798) showed incontrovertibly that population, when unchecked, tends to increase faster than the availability of subsistence therefore preventive checks on population increase are necessary. Malthus, whose work influenced the research of Charles Darwin, admitted he was pessimistic about the future of humankind. He argued, through mathematical proofs and scientific documentation, that without population control the societal result is overcrowding, disease, war, poverty, and vice. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything'
Economics is not widely considered to be one of the sexier sciences. The annual Nobel Prize winner in that field never receives as much publicity as his or her compatriots in peace, literature, or physics. But if such slights are based on the notion that economics is dull, or that economists are concerned only with finance itself, Steven D. Levitt will change some minds. In Freakonomics (written with Stephen J. Dubner), Levitt argues that many apparent mysteries of everyday life don't need to be so mysterious: They could be illuminated and made even more fascinating by asking the right questions and drawing connections. For example, Levitt traces the drop in violent crime rates to a drop in violent criminals and, digging further, to the Roe v. Wade decision that preempted the existence of some people who would be born to poverty and hardship. Elsewhere, by analyzing data gathered from innercity Chicago drug-dealing gangs, Levitt outlines a corporate structure much like McDonald's, where the top bosses make great money while scores of underlings make something below minimum wage. And in a section that may alarm or relieve worried parents, Levitt argues that parenting methods don't really matter much and that a backyard swimming pool is much more dangerous than a gun. These enlightening chapters are separated by effusive passages from Dubner's 2003 profile of Levitt in The New York Times Magazine, which led to the book being written. In a book filled with bold logic, such back-patting veers Freakonomics, however briefly, away from what Levitt actually has to say. Although maybe there's a good economic reason for that too, and we're just not getting it yet. --John Moe

The Iliad (Ancient Greek ?????, Ilias) is, together with the Odyssey, one of two ancient Greek epic poems attributed to Homer, a supposedly blind Ionian poet. The epics are considered by most modern scholars to be the oldest literature in the Greek language. The Iliad concerns events during the tenth and final year in the siege of the city of Ilion, or Troy, by the Greeks. The Odyssey (Greek: ????????, Odusseia)is commonly dated circa 800 to 600 BC. The poem is, in part, a sequel to Homer's Iliad and mainly concerns the events that befall the Greek hero Odysseus (or Ulysses) in his long journeys after the fall of Troy and when he at last returns to his native land of Ithaca.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Irrational Exuberance'
CNBC, day trading, the Motley Fool, Silicon Investor--not since the 1920s has there been such an intense fascination with the U.S. stock market. For an increasing number of Americans, logging on to Yahoo! Finance is a habit more precious than that morning cup of joe (as thousands of SBUX and YHOO shareholders know too well). Yet while the market continues to go higher, many of us can't get Alan Greenspan's famous line out of our heads. In Irrational Exuberance, Yale economics professor Robert J. Shiller examines this public fascination with stocks and sees a combination of factors that have driven stocks higher, including the rise of the Internet, 401(k) plans, increased coverage by the popular media of financial news, overly optimistic cheerleading by analysts and other pundits, the decline of inflation, and the rise of the mutual fund industry. He writes: "Perceived long-term risk is down.... Emotions and heightened attention to the market create a desire to get into the game. Such is irrational exuberance today in the United States."
By history's yardstick, Shiller believes this market is grossly overvalued, and the factors that have conspired to create and amplify this event--the baby-boom effect, the public infatuation with the Internet, and media interest--will most certainly abate. He fears that too many individuals and institutions have come to view stocks as their only investment vehicle, and that investors should consider looking beyond stocks as a way to diversify and hedge against the inevitable downturn. This is a serious and well-researched book that should read like a Stephen King novel to anyone who has staked his or her future on the market's continued success. --Harry C. Edwards [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Selling of Free Trade: Nafta, Washington, and the Subversion of American Democracy'
This brilliant expos shows us how Washington works to make something happen, even when confronted with widespread popular opposition. It chronicles the brutal and expensive campaign in 1993 that led to passage of the poorly understood, highly controversial law creating the North American Free Trade Agreement, but its story is urgently up-to-date.
Above all else, NAFTA guaranteed U.S. corporations access to cheap labor in Mexico and protection against expropriation there, but it was presented as a progressive law that would help workers everywhere. John R. MacArthur, investigating the political and public-relations tactics of the Democratic-Republican big-business coalition that favored Gore, Bradley, Clinton, Gephardt, Bush, and the other members of what he calls the bipartisan oligarchy -- defeated the ad hoc groups of working people, skeptics, and mavericks on Capitol Hill who questioned the value of a manifestly unpopular bill. We learn how these oligarchs do their business with the Fortune 500 companies dominating American trade policy and how they have disregarded the workers' and environmentalists' concerns they now purport to care about. How NAFTA was put across -- or put over on us -- is the central story of this book.
The Selling of "Free Trade" begins with the 1999 closing of the famous Swingline stapler plant in Long Island City, New York, and ends with the factory's relocation just south of the border, in Nogales, Mexico, where MacArthur watches President Ernesto Zedillo preside over the ribbon cutting. In between, he talks to the lobbyists, White House aides, congressional staff, and politicians who framed the debate over free trade and the American economy; he investigates the advertising, public-relations, and politicking maneuvers that, with White House help, put NAFTA across as a pure free-trade issue. And he talks to American factory workers who are losing their jobs: about their work and their working conditions, about what the unions have or haven't done for them, about what it's like when they come off their last assembly line and watch their jobs move to Mexico. He attends meetings at an Arizona resort where a U.S. company helps U.S. businesses learn to save millions of dollars by using NAFTA regulations to relocate their factories south of the border. And he interviews Mexican workers about the deplorable wage variables and shocking lack of health, medical, and educational benefits they must endure.
The ongoing decline of American democracy chronicled and predicted by writers as diverse as Joe McGinniss and C. Wright Mills came vividly true, MacArthur shows, when the American people were sold on what they thought was free trade but was actually a subversion of their political system. His book is essential reading for anyone who cares about the future of the American republic. [via]

Joseph Stiglitz has been a first-hand witness of the devastating effect that globalization can have on the poorest countries of the planet. In this work he maintains that globalization can be a beneficial aspect and that its potential is the enrichment of everyone. He states that governments can and must adopt policies that support the growth of countries in an equal manner, and must fulfill equitable and fair rules that take care of the poor as well as the powerful.
Description in Spanish:
Joseph E. Stiglitz, premio Nobel de economía, ha sido testigo del efecto devastador que la globalización puede tener sobre los países más pobres del planeta gracias a su puesto como vicepresidente del Banco Mundial. En esta obra sostiene que la globalización puede ser una fuerza benéfica siempre que nos replanteemos el modo en el que ha sido gestionada. El dolor padecido por los países en desarrollo en el proceso de desarrollo orientado por el FMI y las organizaciones económicas internacionales ha sido muy superior al necesario. La economía puede parecer una disciplina árida, pero las buenas políticas económicas contribuyen a mejorar la vida de la gente más pobre. Los gobiernos deben y pueden adoptar políticas que orienten el crecimiento de los países de modo equitativo. Constituimos una comunidad global y debemos cumplir una serie de reglas para convivir. Estas reglas deben ser justas, deben atender a los pobres y a los poderosos, y reflejar un sentimiento básico de decenci!
