Paperback. Condición: New. "A thought-provoking book, bringing readers outside their comfort zones. It challenges us to think beyond the typical macro and microeconomic ." A TanFT readers' best 2021 summer booksThroughout the history of mankind, the rise of societies, whether civilizations, nations, or communities, has been a story of human achievement. From the rise of the Akkadian empire in ancient Mesopotamia to the re-emergence of modern China, people constitute the basic denominator upon which societies build their success. The way people around the world think and behave is guided by a complex system of values. These values constitute key factors in the way economies are structured and their potential for further growth. To a large extent, they explain why Japan has gone through multiple lost decades; why Nordic countries accept the highest tax rates in the world, making their societies much more equal; why China has such a large trade surplus with the United States; or why some nations become stuck in a middle-income trap. It is these values, coupled with the right policies, that ultimately determine the destiny of nations.In this book, we explore how the combination of human values and policies affects national economic outcomes. We focus on certain key values conducive to growth: are people of a given nation, on average, hardworking, thrifty? Do they trust each other? Are they risk-takers? The harder people work, the higher the growth potential. Different savings patterns determine, to a large extent, whether a country will grow through investments and exports or consumption, and have generated large global imbalances over time. Trust goes a long way in explaining wealth and income inequalities and the role that governments can play in minimizing those inequalities. Economies with highly risk-averse citizens will stall. We also identify policies which have the greatest impact on economies. Political stability, much more so than any form of governance, is a precondition for growth. Free markets imply a process of creative destruction, free and fair competition, and a level playing field among companies. An educated workforce is a vital enabler of higher productivity and innovation. Corruption can seriously derail growth once it becomes endemic. Sound fiscal and monetary policies stabilize an economy as it goes through cycles and can greatly contribute to a more equal society and a more robust financial sector. …

HB, 300 x 240 mm, 192 p, 225 illustrations, FR edition, . ISBN 9788836652259. Des jouets au musée ? Cet ouvrage en présente un grand nombre, par exemple un bélier à roulettes vieux de 2000 ans, des poupées Barbie, les premiers petits soldats de plomb ou des ours en peluche, tous prêtés à l'HDE Var par les nombreux musées qui se sont intéressés à ces objets fascinants : le musée des Arts décoratifs à Paris, le musée du Louvre, le musée de Cluny, le musée du Jouet de Moirans-en-Montagne, le musée d'Archéologie nationale de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, le Mucem, la BnF et bien d'autres. Les plus grandes institutions muséales ont montré, en contribuant à cette exposition et à ce catalogue, leur intérêt de rendre accessible une réflexion sur ce sujet essentiel. Les musées, comme les institutions universitaires, se sont depuis longtemps saisis de ces objets qui permettent de mieux comprendre la place du jeu dans l'Histoire. En effet, le jouet suit les évolutions historiques, sociales, politiques et économiques, et reflète la place des enfants dans la société. Des harpons miniatures de la Préhistoire aux héros d'aujourd'hui, en passant par les premiers chevaliers ou les petites boutiques du XIXe siècle, l'histoire des jouets nous permet de mieux comprendre la vie des enfants des siècles précédents, mais également les besoins de ceux d'aujourd'hui. Car, au-delà de l'objet et de son histoire, se dessine également l'histoire de son usage et ainsi des mentalités. Alors que les jouets sont à un tournant de leur existence, entre nouvelle technologie et retour aux matériaux naturels, il s'agit de mieux appréhender leur influence sur les premières années de nos vies, mais aussi, pour les adultes, de cultiver et de chérir la part d'enfance qui demeure en chacun de nous. 1400 g.…
