By Lawrance Lux
The World faces complex problems, almost half consist of economic issues; not currently being resolved by mainline economic thought. The Author presents a short, but detailed Work; studying the failings of current economic thought, with concentration on the actual points of failure. He presents concise study of American economic history, with specific expression the economic drives of each period. He shows how current economic theories developed, examines their basic premises, and comments on their failures to fully explain economic forces. He advance the basic theories of Tax Policy Economists, a revisionist view of Economics only recently developed. He uses the basic understanding derived from the above analysis, to examine the fallacies of present Government economic policy, with expression of alternatives to this policy which can be implemented in a fair and universal application setting. The Author goes on to present an alternative Tax program for the federal government, which actually furthers economic growth and expansion.

By John Akhile
There is only one reason why writing a book on this subject matter is relevant to our times. And it is due to the fact that African nations, like most developing countries, need a new approach to issues relating to the challenge of creating sustained economic development. Compensatory Trade Strategy represents a multiple options plan for establishing and implementing trade arrangements in developing countries, particularly in times of hard currency shortage. Author John Akhile brings twenty-five years of experience on the conduct and finance of international trade, specifically on sub-Saharan Africa, and offers a new look at this global crisis. With his comprehensive approach, Akhile creates a basic plan for those interested in compensatory trade. For developing countries, Akhile presents strategies for creating new industrial development projects and for arranging trade transactions for critical supplies. For companies who are seeking to continue and even expand existing opportunities, Compensatory Trade Strategy is a road map for achieving both objectives.

By Thomas W. Dombroski
The author has created an interpretive document detailing the contributions of North East Pennsylvania to the greatness of the United States of America resulting in an economic, financial, and political revitalization of the U.S.A. The book details the accidental and deliberated thing that were done during the 130 years of the first use of anthracite coal to further the prosperity of few and the enslavement of many. No other economic factor in the U.S. ever resulted in such great prosperity and economic progress as the discovery and usage of anthracite coal. Without the ingenuity of the Connecticut people and the shrewdness in business of J.P. Morgan, the United States would not be the great nation it is today. It is unusual that those who contributed and sacrificed to make this happen benefited the least even to today in northeast Pennsylvania.

In spite of the defeat of hyperinflation and improvements in macroeconomic management, the 1990s Washington Consensus-based reforms failed to reverse long-existing declines in productivity in Latin America. They also failed to create adequate local credit markets necessary for higher and more stable growth. By neglecting key matters of distribution, social welfare and investment in the region's human resources, the reforms have limited the prospects for long-term growth and left millions of Latin Americans feeling as if they have little stake in democratic governance and market economics. Drawing upon insights from top political and economic analysts from Latin America and the United States, Latin America after the Washington Consensus: Re-assessing Policies and Priorities discusses the need to reduce current levels of inequality and unemployment, invest in education to increase productivity and competitiveness, and strengthen the capacity of the state to withstand changes in the global economy. Reaching higher rates of growth would solve many of the region's problems, but most Latin American countries have yet to generate the institutional and social conditions that would sustain such growth and endow local economies with more resilience. Warning against one-size-fits-all solutions, Latin America after the Washington Consensus insists that each Latin American state must respond to these challenges with pragmatic strategies based on its own strengths and weaknesses.

This volatile, emotional issue, inherent to Southwest Florida, crosses several fields of study. To create this case study, faculty and graduate students from International College (Naples, Florida), with the help of a local Ft. Myers News-Press reporter, researched this expansive issue involving many organizations and businesses. This controversial topic encompassed all of Florida, but affected Southwest Florida tremendously. Due to the controversial nature of the issue and its effect on one community in particular, the authors decided to concentrate the case research on the City of Cape Coral and the local dock building industry. This study presents and analyzes the issue from differing sides. Key players include: Cape Coral Construction Industry Association, Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Florida Marine Contractors Association, Florida Marine Industry, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, and Save the Manatee Club. The case study is excellent for the classroom as it is an ongoing issue with a multitude of research opportunities.

[This book is written in Japanese.]This book is one of the Tachibana Publishing Future Book Series (Japanese Edition), a series of books with the world’s leading futurists and social analysts. This series looks at future perspectives in a variety of fields- economics, ecology, management, leadership, stock markets, culture, and social issues. Ravi Batra published Stock Market Crashes in 1997, after the Asian crisis hit the newsstands. He predicted the US stock market drop in August 1998, as well as the market recovery when the Fed raised it’s rates — both happened. He is predicting another crash in 1999, resulting in the collapse of the "American Business Empire." Batra always offers interesting insights in his books. As in his earlier books, The Downfall of Capitalism and Communism (1978), he credits many of his ideas for economic reform as well as social historical analysis to his late Indian teacher P.R. Sarkar

Social Limits to Growth sets forth a new view of the nature and the limitations of economic growth. The author’s central argument is that there are indeed limits to growth currently exist and are essentially social rather than physical. As societies have become richer, an increasing proportion of the extra goods, services, and facilities sought by consumers cannot be acquired or used by all, without spoiling them for each other. So frustration is heightened by material affluence, which is why affluence does not make a satisfied society. This book offers important insight on apparently disconnected aspects of the current malaise…such as alienation at work, the rat-race element in education, deterioration in city living, consumerist relationships with neighbors, friends, and sex partners, as well as accelerating rates of inflation and unemployment.
