The Economic and Legal Foundations of Managing Innovative Development in Modern Economic Systems
Innovation is of critical value in the modern global economy, as it performs several important economic functions.The first is related to supporting the sustainability of socio-economic systems, preventing the emergence of crises and, if they do occur, providing solutions to overcome their consequences.Secondly, innovation allows for the activation of economic growth and social progress through the rationalization of economic activities.Thirdly, innovation supports the global competitiveness of economic systems, allowing for the specialization of production and sales of unique goods that are in high demand in both domestic and global markets. At the same time, innovational development in economic systems is required to mitigate the high levels of risk and requires both effective management and a reliable normative and legal foundation.This book studies the economic and legal foundations of managing the innovational development of economic systems from an interdisciplinary perspective, bringing together the thoughts of international scholars in management, economics and law.

How are economic cycles and economic growth related?
Economic cycles and economic growth are closely related. Economic cycles refer to the fluctuations in economic activity, including periods of expansion and contraction. Economic growth, on the other hand, refers to the long-term increase in a country's output of goods and services. During an economic expansion phase of the cycle, there is typically higher economic growth, as businesses invest and consumer spending increases. Conversely, during a contraction phase, economic growth tends to slow down or even turn negative. Therefore, economic cycles can have a significant impact on the overall level of economic growth in a country.

How does economic growth occur in the economic cycle?
Economic growth occurs in the economic cycle through a combination of factors. During the expansion phase of the cycle, businesses invest in new equipment and technology, leading to increased productivity and output. This increased production leads to higher employment levels and consumer spending, further fueling economic growth. Additionally, during this phase, consumer and business confidence is high, leading to increased investment and spending. Overall, economic growth occurs as a result of increased production, employment, and investment during the expansion phase of the economic cycle.

What is the difference between economic system and economic process?
An economic system refers to the structure and organization of an economy, including the institutions, laws, and policies that govern economic activity. It encompasses the overall framework within which economic decisions are made, resources are allocated, and goods and services are produced and distributed. On the other hand, an economic process refers to the specific actions and activities that take place within an economic system, such as production, consumption, investment, and trade. While the economic system sets the rules and parameters for these processes, the economic process involves the day-to-day activities and transactions that drive the economy.

Economic Crisis and Economic Thought : Alternative Theoretical Perspectives on the Economic Crisis
The ongoing economic crisis has revealed fundamental problems both in our economic system and the discipline which analyses it.This book presents a series of contrasting but complementary approaches in economic theory in order to offer a critical toolkit for examining the modern capitalist economy.The global economic crisis may have changed the world in which we live, but not the fundamental tenets of the discipline.This book is a critical assessment of the relation between economic theory and economic crises: how intellectual thinking impacts on real economic events and vice versa.It aims at challenging the conventional way in which economics is taught in universities and later adopted by public officials in the policymaking process.The contributions, all written by distinguished academics and researchers, offer a heterodox perspective on economic thinking and analysis.Each chapter is inspired by alternative theoretical approaches which have been mostly side-lined from current academic teaching programmes.A major suggestion of the book is that the recent economic crisis can be better understood by recovering such theoretical analyses and turning them into a useful framework for economic policymaking.Economic Crisis and Economic Thought is intended as a companion to economics students at the Master’s and PhD level, in order for them to confront issues related to the labour market, the financial sector, macroeconomics, industrial economics, etc. with an alternative and complementary perspective.

Economic Rationality
Economics used to be called political economy, and the loss of the “political” tracks the ascendance of the idea of rational choice within the discipline.Where does this idea of economic rationality – choosing to maximize benefits and minimize costs – come from?What are the consequences of its rise? In this new book, Stephen Engelmann assesses these questions through a consideration of the often-hidden links between choice and government, ranging from the Benthamic utilitarianism that inspired modern economics to the contemporary economic psychologists trying to nudge everyone to choose more rationally.Multiple global crises are exposing how deficient economic rationality is as a political theory, since a focus on choice turns actors away from relations in the common.Political economy once targeted aristocratic rule – heralding a politics and ethics of egalitarian self-command and spurring democratic reform – but economics allows domination and forecloses alternatives to it. This accessible volume will be of interest to students and scholars of politics and economics, and to general readers concerned about the various ways that psychology and management have infiltrated our politics.

Economic Philosophy
Joan Robinson (1903-1983) was one of the greatest economists of the twentieth century and a fearless critic of free-market capitalism.A major figure in the controversial ‘Cambridge School’ of economics in the post-war period, she made fundamental contributions to the economics of international trade and development.In Economic Philosophy Robinson looks behind the curtain of economics to reveal a constant battle between economics as a science and economics as ideology, which she argued was integral to economics.In her customary vivid and pellucid style, she criticizes early economists Adam Smith and David Ricardo, and neo-classical economists Alfred Marshall, Stanley Jevons and Leon Walras, over the question of value.She shows that what they respectively considered to be the generators of value - labour-time, marginal utility or preferences - are not scientific but ‘metaphysical’, and that it is frequently in ideology, not science, that we find the reason for the rejection of economic theories.She also weighs up the implications of the Keynesian revolution in economics, particularly whether Keynes’s theories are applicable to developing economies.Robinson concludes with a prophetic lesson that resonates in today’s turbulent and unequal economy: that the task of the economist is to combat the idea that the only values that count are those that can be measured in terms of money. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new foreword by Sheila Dow.
