Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Soules's excellent book makes sense of the capitalist forces we all feel but cannot always name... Icebergs, Zombies, and the Ultra Thin arms architects and the general public with an essential understanding of how capitalism makes property. Required reading for those who think tomorrow can be different from today."— Jack Self, coeditor of Real Estates: Life Without Debt In Icebergs, Zombies, and the Ultra Thin, Matthew Soules issues an indictment of how finance capitalism dramatically alters not only architectural forms but also the very nature of our cities and societies. We rarely consider architecture to be an important factor in contemporary economic and political debates, yet sparsely occupied ultra-thin "pencil towers" develop in our cities, functioning as speculative wealth storage for the superrich, and cavernous "iceberg" homes extend architectural assets many stories below street level. Meanwhile, communities around the globe are blighted by zombie and ghost urbanism, marked by unoccupied neighborhoods and abandoned housing developments. Learn how the use of architecture as an investment tool has accelerated in recent years, heightening inequality and contributing to worldwide financial instability: • See how investment imperatives shape what and how we build, changing the very structure of our communities • Delve into high-profile projects, like the luxury apartments of architect Rafael Viñoly's 432 Park Avenue • Understand the convergence of technology, finance, and spirituality, which together are configuring the financialized walls within which we eat, sleep, and work Includes dozens of photos and drawings of architectural phenomena that have changed the way we live. Essential reading for anyone interested in architecture, design, economics, and understanding the way our world is formed.

Download or read book Finance Architecture written by Jessica Nicole Pace and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our markets are volatile. Our economy is unstable. Our future is unknown. This thesis investigates the architecture of financial institutions within in the current context of complete failure and abstraction. Historically, the building of banks was undertaken in order to produce a sense of public trust in the institution. It was the task of the architects of great financial establishments to maintain an image of lofty seclusion, of power, and of stability. They were constructed of stone, were monumental in scale and they referenced the Greek orders. Their architecture was wrought with symbolism and representation. They were built to last. However, the nature of our financial institutions have changed. The crash of 2008 represents a distinct shift in our relationship with our financial institutions. The masses began to question the interests of their government and the corruption of their financial institutions. With each new headline of scandal and fraud, public trust is no longer an option. In the face of this failure, my thesis is in search of an architecture for failure. Can architecture challenge these traditions of seclusion, power, stability and separation? Can it undermine the perception of strength that no longer defines our financial institutions? Can it acknowledge uncertainty? This thesis re-imagines the stock exchange as a machine for trading, a data center. Anticipating the total obsolescence of the trading floor, the new exchange boasts floors of servers to run the complex algorithms that will soon take over. Constantly whirring with fans and mechanical systems, the machine puts off heat which is used to inflate a network of public spaces that wind through the building. These give access and allow for new occupations of the Exchange. The new face of Wall Street is no longer solid, or stable. It is temporary, claustrophobic, flickering, buzzing and slightly saggy.
Download or read book Public Financial Management and Its Emerging Architecture written by Mr. M. Cangiano and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-04-05 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first two decades of the twenty-first century have witnessed an influx of innovations and reforms in public financial management. The current wave of reforms is markedly different from those in the past, owing to the sheer number of innovations, their widespread adoption, and the sense that they add up to a fundamental change in the way governments manage public money. This book takes stock of the most important innovations that have emerged over the past two decades, including fiscal responsibility legislation, fiscal rules, medium-term budget frameworks, fiscal councils, fiscal risk management techniques, performance budgeting, and accrual reporting and accounting. Not merely a handbook or manual describing practices in the field, the volume instead poses critical questions about innovations; the issues and challenges that have appeared along the way, including those associated with the global economic crisis; and how the ground can be prepared for the next generation of public financial management reforms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asian economies continue to be subject to new shocks: US monetary policy tightening, the adoption of negative-interest-rate policies by central banks all over the world, the slowdown of the People's Republic of China, and the sharp drop in oil and other commodity prices. All these highlight the vulnerability of the region to volatile trade and capital flows even as the global and Asian regional financial architecture evolves. This volume analyzes the vulnerabilities of Asian economies to external economic and financial shocks and assesses the performance of Asian regional institutions in financial surveillance and cooperation. It also evaluates ongoing reforms of the global financial architecture, including the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Financial Stability Board, and reviews the experience of the "Troika" (European Commission, European Central Bank, and the IMF) in managing the European sovereign debt and banking crisis. Based on these, the book develops valuable recommendations to strengthen the Asian regional financial architecture and improve cooperation with global multilateral institutions.
