Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To capitalise on the new international resolve epitomised by COP21 and the agreement on the universal Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) requires a renewed effort to promote new policy thinking and new approaches to the great challenges ahead. Responding to new challenges means we have to adopt more ambitious frameworks, design more effective tools, and propose more precise policies that will take account of the complex and multidimensional nature of the challenges. The goal is to develop a better sense of how economies really work and to articulate strategies which reflect this understanding. The OECD’s New Approaches to Economic Challenges (NAEC) exercise challenges our assumptions and our understanding about the workings of the economy. This collection from OECD Insights summarises opinions from inside and outside the Organisation on how NAEC can contribute to achieving the SDGs, and describes how the OECD is placing its statistical, monitoring and analytical capacities at the service of the international community. The authors also consider the transformation of the world economy that will be needed and the long-term “tectonic shifts” that are affecting people, the planet, global productivity, and institutions.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At first sight, this volume, which contains chapters covering topics ranging from economic methodology through central bank independence to pension systems, might be viewed as a potpourri of largely unrelated issues.

Download or read book Current Economic Issues Tenth Edition written by Dollars & Sense and published by . This book was released on 2006-04 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The economic news of the last several years has been remarkable - from the collapse of the "new economy" to the buildup of a war economy, ballooning house prices, and proposals to privatize major government programs. The tenth edition of Current Economic Issues is an invaluable tool for understanding the real world economics behind the headlines. Its 47 articles offer progressive perspectives on major economic news stories, debunking dozens of myths broadcast by the business press along the way. The book starts with an examination of the recent economic recovery, and explains why so many have been left out of it at the same time that others have made a killing. It takes a close look at the factors that havemade labor organising more difficult, from new laws and regulation to the rise of Wal-Mart. Three chapters scrutinize the impact of the Bush administration's fiscal policies, including rollbacks in social spending, efforts to privatize Social Security and Medicare, and recent tax cuts. Later chapters uncover the reality behind hot button issues like offshoring, the falling dollar, energy policy, and the rise of China's export economy. The final chapters look at the uneven impact of natural disasters, environmental degredation and epidemics. The book concludes with examples of underreported efforts to advance economic alternatives. The sharply written, well-researched articles are drawn from the pages of Dollars & Sense, the bimonthly magazine of popular economics.

Download or read book Economic Challenges in Higher Education written by Charles T. Clotfelter and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last two decades have been a turbulent period for American higher education, with profound demographic shifts, gyrating salaries, and marked changes in the economy. While enrollments rose about 50% in that period, sharp increases in tuition and fees at colleges and universities provoke accusations of inefficiency, even outright institutional greed and irresponsibility. As the 1990s progress, surpluses in the academic labor supply may give way to shortages in many fields, but will there be enough new Ph.D.'s to go around? Drawing on the authors' experience as economists and educators, this book offers an accessible analysis of three crucial economic issues: the growth and composition of undergraduate enrollments, the supply of faculty in the academic labor market, and the cost of operating colleges and universities. The study provides valuable insights for administrators and scholars of education.

Download or read book Coordination of Monetary and Fiscal Policies written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1998-03-01 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, monetary authorities have increasingly focused on implementing policies to ensure price stability and strengthen central bank independence. Simultaneously, in the fiscal area, market development has allowed public debt managers to focus more on cost minimization. This “divorce” of monetary and debt management functions in no way lessens the need for effective coordination of monetary and fiscal policy if overall economic performance is to be optimized and maintained in the long term. This paper analyzes these issues based on a review of the relevant literature and of country experiences from an institutional and operational perspective.
