Justice and Democracy
A Progressive Agenda for the Twenty-First Century
Mike Berry
This visionary book seeks to uncover the main barriers to achieving greater social justice in existing twenty-first century capitalism. Developing a comprehensive consequentialist theory of justice applied to today’s global situation, Mike Berry adopts the thesis that, in order to move towards a more just world, the weaknesses of liberal democracy must be overcome through reconstructing robust, resilient social democracies.

Cover Capital Movements and Corporate Dominance in Latin America
Capital Movements and Corporate Dominance in Latin America
Reduced Growth and Increased Instability
Editors: Noemi Levy-Orlik, Jorge A. Bustamante-Torres, and Louis-Philippe Rochon
This book addresses the problems of Latin America, through two of the most important features of the post-Bretton Woods economic order, large corporations and weak financial markets. In turn, it shows that their impact on economic growth and development is feeble and short-lived. This resulted in income concentration and an extremely unequal distribution of wealth in the region.

The Global Rise of the Modern Plug-In Electric Vehicle
Public Policy, Innovation and Strategy
John D. Graham
We may be standing on the precipice of a revolution in propulsion not seen since the internal combustion engine replaced the horse and buggy. The anticipated proliferation of electric cars will influence the daily lives of motorists, the economies of different countries and regions, urban air quality and global climate change. If you want to understand how quickly the transition is likely to occur, and the factors that will influence the predictions of the pace of the transition, this book will be an illuminating read.

Cover Thirlwall's Law at 40
Thirlwall's Law at 40
Editors: Thomas Palley, Esteban Pérez Caldentey, and Matías Vernengo
2019 marked the 40th anniversary of the publication of Anthony P. Thirlwall’s classic paper that laid out what became known as Thirlwall’s law. This article introduced and provided empirical evidence in favor of the proposition that the long-run rate of growth of an economy compatible with balance-of-payments equilibrium can be approximated by the simple rule of the ratio of the growth of exports to the income elasticity of demand for imports.
