Are you wondering how Americans can compete with nations like China? Are you wondering how, if they can offshore call centers, computer programming, and accounting, there will be any good jobs left they can't offshore? Are you wondering how America can keep importing and running up debt without going bankrupt? Are you wondering how America can be a powerful nation without an industrial base? Are you wondering why the politicians keep denying all of these problems? Are you wondering whether the economics you learned in school and hear on TV is really valid? Are you wondering who you can trust? This very readable book is aimed at both ordinary concerned citizens and people with a bit of sophistication about economics. It is a systematic examination of why free trade is slowly bleeding America's economy to death and what can be done about it. It explains in detail why the standard economic arguments free traders use all the time are false, and what kind of economic ideas - well within the grasp of the average American - justify protectionism instead. It examines the history and politics of free trade and explains how America came to adopt its present disastrous free trade policy. It looks at the breakdown of specific industries and how we can rebuild them and bring millions of high-paying jobs back to this country. It examines what's wrong with NAFTA, CAFTA, the WTO, and the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership. It is sharply critical of the current establishment, but from a bipartisan point of view, so it should satisfy progressives, conservatives, and everyone in between. Unlike many past critiques of free trade, it is economically-literate; it also explains New Trade Theory, the hot new area of economics that critiques free trade.

The global financial and economic crisis that began in 2008 has blasted livelihoods, inspired protests, and toppled governments. It has also highlighted the profound moral concerns long surrounding globalization. Did materialist excess, doctrinaire embrace of free trade and capital flows, and indifference to economic injustice contribute to the disaster of the last decade? Was it ethical to bail out banks and governments while innocent people suffered? In this blend of economics, moral philosophy, history, and politics, Steven R. Weisman argues that the concepts of liberty, justice, virtue, and loyalty help to explain the passionate disagreements spawned by a globally integrated economy.

Ralph Gomory and William Baumol adapt classical trade models to the modern world economy. In this book Ralph Gomory and William Baumol adapt classical trade models to the modern world economy. Trade today is dominated by manufactured goods, rapidly moving technology, and huge firms that benefit from economies of scale. This is very different from the largely agricultural world in which the classical theories originated. Gomory and Baumol show that the new and significant conflicts resulting from international trade are inherent in modern economies.Today improvement in one country's productive capabilities is often attainable only at the expense of another country's general welfare. The authors describe why and when this is so and why, in a modern free-trade environment, a country might have a vital stake in the competitive strength of its industries.

The contemporary orthodox view of world trade has centred, generally unchallenged, on the ideas of free trade, based on the theoretical construct of comparative advantage. This book will engage in a critique of the orthodox position based on the underlying theoretical economic construct, the historical development of the now developed economies and the morally unsustainable position of the free-trade regime. The author examines alternatives such as Most Favoured Nation and Preferential Trading Agreements before making the argument in favour of Asymmetric Trading, where the underdeveloped economies can develop behind tariff barriers and quotas, whilst the triadic nations maintain a lack of barriers to the exports of these economies. He outlines how such a trading regime would be mutually beneficial in the long term, in the sense that development through industrialisation takes place and the increase in GDP per capita would allow markets for exports to be sustainable, thus widening the market for the goods and services of the developed economies. However, the author demonstrates that free trade actually increases the development gap by maintaining the status quo in terms of the underdeveloped economies specialising in and exporting low value-added primary products and importing high value-added manufactures. The book analyses contemporary and historical data to illustrate how an alternative trading regime can be truly advantageous to both the developed and underdeveloped regions of the world: a global trading regime that is capable of increasing GDP in a sustainable manner without transferring a surplus from the poor to the rich nations and without a long-term commitment on the part of the developed nations to altruism.

In this major revision of his investment classic, one of the premier investment managers introduces vitally important new findings in psychology that show why most investment strategies are fatally flawed and his contrarian strategies are the best way to beat the market. The need to switch to a new approach for investing has never been more urgent. The crash of 2008 revealed in dramatic fashion that there are glaring flaws in the theory that underlies all of the prevailing investment strategies—efficient market theory. This theory, and all of the most popular investing strategies, fail to account for major, systematic errors in human judgment that the powerful new research in psychology David Dreman introduces has revealed, such as emotional over-reactions and a host of mental shortcuts in judgment that lead to wild over and under-valuations of stocks, bonds, and commodities and to bubbles and crashes. It also leads to horribly flawed assessments of risk. Dreman shows exactly how the new psychological findings definitively refute those strategies and reveals how his alternative contrarian strategies do a powerful job of accounting for them. He shows readers how by being aware of these new findings, they can become saavy psychological investors, crash-proofing their portfolios and earning market beating long-term returns. He also introduces a new theory of risk and substantially updates his core contrarian strategies with a number of highly effective methods for facing the most pressing challenges in the coming years, such as greatly increased volatility and the prospect of inflation. This is every investor’s essential guide to optimal investing.

The world is in turmoil. Whether one looks at Europe, Asia, North America, the Middle East, Africa, or Latin America, uncertainty and upheaval seem to be the order of the day. Nevertheless, there seems to be an odd certainty in the minds of many pundits, writers, and citizens in this highly volatile world of geopolitics: the days of the United States as the world's sole superpower are over. The consensus tells us that the United States will not be able to keep a status as a major power among China, the European community, and a resurgent Russia. How realistic is this perspective, though? Is the "air of inevitability" concerning America's demise merely a passing breeze? How solid is the "unstoppable rise" of the Chinese? How likely is it for Europe to right its ship? A Giant Reborn, from critically acclaimed author and leading economic journalist Johan Van Overtveldt, dispels many of these ingrained assumptions and argues that the 21st century will be defined by the country currently best set up to succeed: the United States of America. In the current chaotic political climate it seems risky to say any country will be able to maintain its current status. But Van Overtveldt provides a measured, insightful, and thoroughly engaging examination of the evidence. In his richly detailed style and straightforward explanations, he masterfully lays out a case for why America, against many pundits' best predictions, is set up to continue its 20th-century success into this millennium. A Giant Reborn shows readers that the reports of America's death, to paraphrase the father of American literature, have been greatly exaggerated.

In 2020, COVID-19 starkly demonstrated the global interconnectedness of business, as it disrupted supply chains and manufacturing operations, broadly shuttered retail stores, and led to restrictions on movement and travel around the world. Other events in 2019 also showcased the undeniable globalization of business, be it from the (un)expected ramifications of Brexit to the impacts of data breaches across various industries. Riots in Hong Kong over an extradition bill also sparked huge debate and controversy, and the U.S.-China trade war also caused concern. All of these events may have largely and immediately impacted one region, yet effects reverberate across larger swathes of the globe—ultimately affecting vast areas, industries, and sectors across the international landscape. Issues in Global Business explores all of these and more, across a wide range of topics, including the on-demand economy, global manufacturing, Bitcoin, data security, and many more. Coupled with a comprehensive overview of the business landscape around the world by Dr. Mamoun Benmamoun, an assistant professor at the Boeing Institute of International Business at Saint Louis University, this book provides students with the essential information they need to assess business practices through an international lens.

逆向投資之父關於投資心理的關鍵經典 歷經半世紀，四次全面改版，歷久彌新 價值投資 X 股市心理學 5種逆向策略 X 5項選股指標 X 34條投資心法 經實戰驗證，能長期勝過大盤的有效策略 讓你牛市、熊市都能贏 專文推薦—— Mr. Market市場先生／財經作家 安納金／暢銷財經作家 強力推薦—— Jenny／「JC財經觀點」版主 JG／「JG說真的」創辦人 游庭皓／財經直播主 資工心理人／「資工心理人的理財筆記」版主 雷浩斯／價值投資者、財經作家 （依姓名筆畫排序） 為什麼我們需要一套新的投資策略？ ——理論上不可能的崩盤 ▍「黑色星期一」，1987年10月19日，道瓊指數光是這天就跌掉22.6%。 ▍長期資本管理公司（LTCM）於1998年10月破產，年初時它還是全球最大的避險基金。 ▍2006至2008年的房市泡沫與市場崩盤，投資人都還記憶猶新。 股災發生後，總會冒出很多套解釋，卻始終找不到直接的推手。當「理論上不可能的崩盤」發生了，就應當回頭檢視理論基礎。大衛‧卓曼（David Dreman）認為，問題出在主流投資策略背後的根基：效率市場假說（EMH），以及從它衍生而來的相關理論，與衡量風險（波動性）的方式，包括資本資產訂價模型（CAPM）和現代投資組合理論（MPT）。 卓曼在書中詳實分析效率市場假說的基本假設，並清楚地反駁這些假設。效率市場假說根本上的失誤，是沒有體認到心理層面在投資決策中發揮的作用。卓曼直言：「效率市場假說和資本資產訂價模型的理論支柱看起來都可以打掉重建了。」 現代心理學對投資的啟發 效率市場假說的其中一個前提是「理性的投資（人）總是會讓價格保持正確」，然而，觀察投資人的決策，我們總是看見： ▍人天生不擅長處理統計數據，因此會一直出現可預測的投資偏誤。 ▍當人對投資一頭熱時，會不管風險密布，反而覺得投資越沒風險。 ▍投資人會在股票漲翻即將暴跌時買進，也常常在機會不好時決定賭一把。 卓曼在本書中探討情感的運作，提供情感在扭曲「理性」市場行為方面的各種推論，建構一套有力的理解方式，幫我們釐清人們為何會動輒一頭栽進泡沫，以致血本無歸。 分析師預測失準，影響股價 ——反過來加以利用 一般認為，分析師所做的盈餘預估，跟實際財報數字的差距要在3%以下，以免發布後市場因失準而遭受奇襲。然而，回顧40年來分析師的預估表現，可知預估失準的幅度，比3%高出好幾倍，而且很頻繁。而幅度極微小的預估失準，都可能對股價產生重大影響。 卓曼的研究發現，「預估失準」是可以反過來運用在投資上的。證據顯示，「預估失準」後來有利於逆向操作股票，不利於廣受愛戴的股票。這個研究結果為運用「逆向投資策略」提供了堅實的新證據。 逆向投資策略 ——90%機率勝過大盤 結合投資人在心理上的特徵，以及分析師頻繁出現的「預估失準」，卓曼提出一套「逆向投資策略」，有5種操作方式，同時明確指出5種選股指標，以及賣出時機。 投資「逆向股」的績效勝過大盤和熱門股。「逆向投資策略」打敗大盤的機率，5年期是94%，10年期是99%，如果你願意每年（而非每一季）小小地調整一次投資組合的話。執行「逆向投資策略」，讓你的股票在市場大跌時，跌幅會小於市場平均值，而當市場處於高檔時，則會表現得更好。 數據證明，不論是牛市或熊市，長抱「逆向投資股」的報酬率非常驚人。而且時間越久，成果越豐碩。 歷久彌新的投資經典 《逆向投資策略》的第一版於1970年發行（當時的書名是《心理學和股票市場》），歷經四次改版，至今已超過50年，歷久不衰。卓曼融合了價值投資與行為財務學，以紮實的論據告訴我們：能掌握心理層面的投資人，就握有絕佳的優勢，不光是理論知識，還有貨真價實的投資操作優勢。 推薦好評 ▍Mr. Market市場先生／財經作家： 「書中對於理論的詳盡解釋、說明傳統學術理論的缺陷，以及對於投資方法從假說建立到實際應用的嚴謹驗證，作者都做得非常詳盡……作者的思考脈絡對每個理性的投資人一定都會有幫助。」 ▍安納金／《散戶的50道難題》、《高手的養成》系列暢銷書作者： 「此書提供了五種被實證為績效卓著的逆向投資相關策略，作者論述的邏輯清晰、數據佐證完整，讓此書相當具有說服力……此書……更將相關的心理學以及行為財務學立論基礎有相當完整的論述。倘若您過去在股市殺進殺出並沒有獲得滿意的績效，或許該是好好研究『逆向投資策略』的時候了！」
