Amansız Devrim: Kapitalizm Tarihi book pdf download By Joyce Appleby

Kapitalist sistem yaşamımızın çerçevesini oluşturuyor; sürekli değişim gerektiren bir çerçeve, bazen ölçülebilir ve tahmin edilebilir bazen de zorlayıcı ve denetim dışı. Ancak, bugün her yerde var olan bu çerçeve, hep böyle miydi?
Kapitalizm, pek çok yönden beklenmeyen bir gelişmeydi. Etkileri, değişimin farkına varan gözlemciler tarafından izlendi, yeni uygulamalar iktidardakiler tarafından devlet adına dizginlendi. Sonuçta, refah, güç ve yeni fikirler yaratan bir sistem doğdu. Ve bu sistem, sürekli değişim peşinde olan toplumları dönüştürdü.
Peki, kapitalizm engellenemez bir gelişme, kaçınılmaz bir olgu ya da kader miydi? Kitabın başlıca savlarından biri, kapitalizmin doğuşunun engellenemez, kaçınılmaz bir olgu ya da kader olmadığı. Bu konu neden önemli? Kapitalizmin tohumlarının ortaçağda ekilmediği ya da insanların kapitalist zihniyetle doğmadıkları konusunda neden ısrar edilmeli? Çünkü, Appleby’a göre, bu kavramlar doğru değil. Kapitalizmi evrensel ilkelerin doğal bir sonucu değil, tarihsel gelişimin bir parçası olarak değerlendirmek, iklimler gibi doğal değil, kültürel bir sistem olduğunu kabul etmek gerekir. Böylece kapitalizmin evrensel bir buyruk olduğunu varsayma yönündeki ideolojik yaklaşımın önüne geçilebilir, kapitalizmin tahakküm etmek üzere çıktığı yolculuğun kritik bir noktasında önemini yitiren kültürel etkiler ve toplumsal kaygılar yeniden gün ışığına çıkarılabilir.

Appleby’ın anlatısı, çeşitli ülkelerin nasıl kapitalist olduklarıyla değil, yüzlerce yıllık zengin bir tarihe sahip olan kapitalizme farklı coğrafyalarda şekil veren gelişmelerle ilgileniyor. Bu, genel bir dünya kapitalizmi incelemesinden çok, bugün yaşadığımız ekonomik sistemin nasıl biçimlendirildiğinin izini süren bir anlatı.

Environmental Economics: A Very Short Introduction book pdf download By Stephen Smith

In this Very Short Introduction, Stephen Smith shows how the field of environmental economics looks at how economic activity and policy can affect the environment in which we live. The book discusses environmental issues including pollution control, reducing environmental damage, global climate change policies, questions about how we should balance environmental and economic considerations, and what form government policies should take. In recent years, Smith reveals, many economists have argued for greater use of incentives such as pollution charges and emissions trading rather than more traditional direct regulation of polluters. Including many illustrative case studies, this book offers an illuminating introduction to an exciting field of economics.

Taxation: A Very Short Introduction book pdf download By Stephen Smith

Taxation is crucial to the functioning of the modern state. Tax revenues pay for public services – roads, the courts, defence, welfare assistance to the poor and elderly, and in many countries much of health care and education too. More than one third of national income in the industrialized (OECD) countries is on average taken in taxation. Taxes affect individuals in many ways. Taxes paid on income and spending directly reduce taxpayer disposable income, taxpayers face the hassle of tax returns and making payments, and they may be anxious about the possibility of investigation and enforcement action. People also adapt their activities in various ways to reduce the impact of taxation – putting money into tax-free savings accounts, or making shopping trips to other countries where taxes are lower.

Made in the USA: The Rise and Retreat of American Manufacturing book pdf download By Vaclav Smil

“There is probably no other writer whose books I anticipate with more enthusiasm than Vaclav Smil. He brings remarkable insight to every topic he examines, combining his vast knowledge of science and energy, history and business to address some of the most pressing issues we face today. So I’m pleased he will be turning that keen intellect to the subject of manufacturing in the U.S.”–Bill Gates In Made in the USA, Vaclav Smil powerfully rebuts the notion that manufacturing is a relic of predigital history and that the loss of American manufacturing is a desirable evolutionary step toward a pure service economy. Smil argues that no advanced economy can prosper without a strong, innovative manufacturing sector and the jobs it creates. Reversing a famous information economy dictum, Smil argues that serving potato chips is not as good as making microchips. The history of manufacturing in America, Smil tells us, is a story of nation-building. He explains how manufacturing became a fundamental force behind America’s economic, strategic, and social dominance. He describes American manufacturing’s rapid rise at the end of the nineteenth century, its consolidation and modernization between the two world wars, its role as an enabler of mass consumption after 1945, and its recent decline. Some economists argue that shipping low-value jobs overseas matters little because the high-value work remains in the United States. But, asks Smil, do we want a society that consists of a small population of workers doing high-value-added work and masses of unemployed? Smil assesses various suggestions for solving America’s manufacturing crisis, including lowering corporate tax rates, promoting research and development, and improving public education. Will America act to preserve and reinvigorate its manufacturing? It is crucial to our social and economic well-being; but, Smil warns, the odds are no better than even.

Japan’s Dietary Transition and Its Impacts book pdf download By Vaclav Smil

In a little more than a century, the Japanese diet has undergone a dramatic transformation. In 1900, a plant-based, near-subsistence diet was prevalent, with virtually no consumption of animal protein. By the beginning of the twenty-first century, Japan’s consumption of meat, fish, and dairy had increased markedly (although it remained below that of high-income Western countries). This dietary transition was a key aspect of the modernization that made Japan the world’s second largest economic power by the end of the twentieth century, and it has helped Japan achieve an enviable demographic primacy, with the world’s highest life expectancy and a population that is generally healthier (and thinner) than that of other modern affluent countries. In this book, Vaclav Smil and Kazuhiko Kobayashi examine Japan’s gradual but profound dietary change and investigate its consequences for health, longevity, and the environment. Smil and Kobayashi point out that the gains in the quality of Japan’s diet have exacted a price in terms of land use changes, water requirements, and marine resource depletion; and because Japan imports so much of its food, this price is paid globally as well as domestically. The book’s systematic analysis of these diverse consequences offers the most detailed account of Japan’s dietary transition available in English.
