- Fisher, Mark, 1968-2017, author.
- London : Repeater Books, 2021
- Description
- Book — 251 pages ; 21 cm
- Summary
-
Edited and with an introduction by Matt Colquhoun, this collection of lecture notes and transcriptions reveals acclaimed writer and blogger Mark Fisher in his element - the classroom - outlining a project that Fisher's death left so bittersweetly unfinished. Beginning with that most fundamental of questions - "Do we really want what we say we want?" - Fisher explores the relationship between desire and capitalism, and wonders what new forms of desire we might still excavate from the past, present, and future. From the emergence and failure of the counterculture in the 1970s to the continued development of his left-accelerationist line of thinking, this volume charts a tragically interrupted course for thinking about the raising of a new kind of consciousness, and the cultural and political implications of doing so. For Fisher, this process of consciousness raising was always, fundamentally, psychedelic - just not in the way that we might think...

- Biddle, Jeff, author.
- Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2021.
- Description
- Book — xii, 334 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.
- Summary
-
"At the 1927 meetings of the American Economic Association, Paul Douglas presented a paper entitled "A Theory of Production", which he had coauthored with Charles Cobb. The paper proposed the now familiar Cobb-Douglas function as a general mathematical representation of the relationship between the amounts of capital and labor employed in the US manufacturing sector and the quantity of output produced by that sector. The paper's innovation, however, was not the function itself, as this functional form had been previously proposed by Knut Wicksell and others; but the use of the function as the basis of a statistical procedure for estimating the parameters of this relationship. It is this procedure, a linear regression of the log of a measure of the output of some production activity on the logs of measures of inputs used in the activity, that I call in this book "the Cobb-Douglas regression". In a broader sense, the paper's innovation was the idea motivating and underlying the particular linear regression used by Cobb and Douglas: that a stable, quantifiable relationship between the inputs to and outputs of production processes existed and could be discovered through regression analysis, and that knowledge of this relationship would help to answer important questions of economic theory and policy"-- Provided by publisher.

12. Religion and the rise of capitalism [2021]
- Friedman, Benjamin M., author.
- New York : Alfred A. Knopf, 2021.
- Description
- Book — 1 volume ; 24 cm
- Summary
-
"Where do our ideas about economics and economic policy come from? Critics of contemporary economics complain that belief in free markets, among economists and many ordinary citizens too, is a form of religion. It turns out that there is something to the idea: not in the way the critics mean, but in a deeper, more historically grounded sense. Contrary to the conventional historical view of economics as entirely a secular product of the Enlightenment, religion exerted a powerful influence from the outset. Benjamin M. Friedman demonstrates that the foundational transition in thinking about what we now call economics, beginning in the eighteenth century, was decisively shaped by the hotly contended lines of religious thought within the English-speaking Protestant world. Beliefs about God-given human character, about our destiny after this life, and about the purpose of our existence, were all under challenge in the world in which Adam Smith and his contemporaries lived. Those debates explain the puzzling behavior so many of our fellow citizens whose views about economic policies, and whose voting behavior too, seems sharply at odds with what would be to their own economic benefit. Understanding the origins of the relationship between religious thinking and economic thinking, together with its ongoing consequences, provides insights into our current economic policy debates and ways to shape more functional policies for all citizens"-- Provided by publisher.
