Access device fraud and related financial crimes

An informant once said to us, “Man, you have to be crazy to use a gun to hold up a bank; those credit cards can get you the same thing with no risk.” Whether it be filling out fraudulent applications, stealing cards from the mail, or taking over legitimate accounts, it can be done — “You have to pick them though, watch out for the good banks; they’ve got systems to catch you if you …

Global and ReGional PRoblems

In this book we will propose new interdisciplinary directions for the study of global and regional problems and the interactions between these two scales.

The Wealth of Networks

Increased practical individual autonomy has been central to my claims throughout this book. It underlies the efficiency and sustainability of nonproprietary production in the networked information economy. It underlies the improvements I describe in both freedom and justice. Many have raised concerns that this new freedom will fray social ties and fragment social relations. On this view, the n…

Quantitative easing as a highway to hyperinflation

In the aftermath of the global financial crisis, the European crisis and the recessions associated with these crises, one tends to think that the risk of deflation is greater than the risk of inflation as things stand at the end of 2012. This is a valid argument insofar as demand-pull factors and cost-push factors are associated with economic booms, when there is unutilized capacity in the econ…

THE ROLE OF CENTRAL BANKS IN FINANCIAL STABILITY How Has It Changed?

The wide-scale financial crisis of recent years has focused attention on the role of central banks in achieving and maintaining financial stability. Indeed, financial stability was the primary reason for the establishment of many of the earliest central banks. But as financial crises diminished in frequency and severity in the post-World War II period, particularly in industrial coun- tries, ce…

Corruption, good governance and economic development : contemporary analysis …

The question may be asked, why is it important to discuss good govern- ance as a prerequisite for sustainable and environmentally friendly development? The answer to the above question lies in the historical experience of failure to achieve economic growth by many countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America in the past several decades. Since the end of World War II, the economic literature o…

Making Capitalism Fit for Society

European social democracy needs to be shaken out of the defensive posture to which it has shrunk for several years now. It should not be in this position at all. Inequality is again becoming a major issue; the power of large corporations is producing a growing number of problems for consumers, workers and citizens; the neglect of collective needs is producing frightening problems of environment…
