TEXTBOOK

Time Series Models for Business and Economic ForecastingSecond editionPhilip Hans Franses

With a new author team contributing decades of practical experience, this fully updated second edition textbook summarises the most critical decisions, techniques and steps in creating effective forecasting models. It includes all the new theoretical and practical exercises geared at guiding students through the steps of creating forecasting models on their own.

From the fi rst edition: ‘Reviews the more recent developments in modeling time series to focus on generating ex ante forecasts: seasonal unit roots, period models, aberrant observations, and common features. For each method, intuitive motivation and practical considerations are discussed in detail, making the book very readable … should be benefi cial for students and instructors of applications-oriented courses as well as for practitioners who wish to obtain a fi rst, but not too technical, impression of time series forecasting using modern, recently developed methods.’Journal of the American Statistical Association

Generalized Vectorization, Cross-Products, and Matrix CalculusDarrell A. TurkingtonUniversity of Western Australia, Perth

Matrix calculus is an effi cient procedure for obtaining many derivatives at once, used in statistics and econometrics. This book studies different concepts of matrix derivatives and a particular brand of mathematics behind matrix calculus, including special matrices whose elements are all zero or one.

‘A very neat treatment of matrix calculus. There is no doubt that the new operators and matrices presented in the book will see their applications in many areas of econometrics.’Yong Bao, Purdue University

Stochastic Calculus and Differential Equations for Physics and FinanceJoseph L. McCauleyUniversity of Houston

Stochastic calculus provides a powerful description of a specifi c class of stochastic processes in physics and fi nance. However, many econophysicists struggle to understand it. This book presents the subject simply and systematically, giving graduate students and practitioners a better understanding

and enabling them to apply the methods in practice.

‘This new book by Joe McCauley is a most welcome and innovative contribution to the important fi eld of mathematical fi nance theory. It presents a unifi ed, rigorous and comprehensive framework of the dynamics of stochastic calculus that should underpin the mathematics of fi nance. The book’s welcome focus on nonstationary processes and statistical ensembles in time series analysis, developing, inter alia, the Ito calculus and the Fokker-Planck equations as parallel approaches to stochastic processes, will make this the classic and indispensable textbook for any serious graduate courses in applied fi nance theory – not just for economists, but also for physicists interested in studying the world of fi nance.’Stefano Zambelli, Algorithmic Social Sciences Research Unit (ASSRU), University of Trento

Economics of AgglomerationCities, Industrial Location, and GlobalizationSecond editionMasahisa FujitaKyoto University, Japan

and Jacques-Francois ThisseKatholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium

This is a study of the economic reasons for the existence of a large variety of agglomerations arising from the global to the local. The second edition combines a comprehensive analysis of the fundamentals of spatial economics and an in-depth discussion of the most recent theoretical developments in new economic geography and urban economics. It aims to highlight several of the major economic trends observed in modern societies.

Advance praise:‘Two of the best regional scientists share with us what they have learned about the economics of agglomeration. This splendid book shows that different strands in the literature rely on the same common principles that defi ne agglomeration economies. The authors show how these common principles can help us to understand the spatial distribution of economic activity. Although the book is mostly about theory, lucid and stylized examples illustrate the theories. Economics of Agglomeration,

Second Edition is essential reading for graduate students in regional and urban economics for years to come.’Steven Brakman, University of Groningen

The Language of Law and EconomicsA DictionaryFrancesco ParisiUniversity of Minnesota

From a historical perspective, ‘law and economics’ constituted one of the most infl uential developments in legal scholarship in the twentieth century; the discipline remains today one of the dominant perspectives on the law, generating a tremendous quantity of new research and discussion. Unfortunately, one consequence of applying the analytical methods of one highly technical fi eld to the historically layered substance of another has been the accumulation of considerable technical overhead, requiring fl uency in both the language of economics and the language of the law. Further complicating matters, the fi eld of law and economics has sometimes developed independently, creating new terms, while recasting others from their original economic or legal meanings. In this dictionary of law and economics, Francesco Parisi provides a comprehensive and concise guide to the language and key concepts underlying this fecund interdisciplinary tradition. The fi rst reference work of its kind, it will prove to be an invaluable resource for professionals, students and scholars.

‘Professor Francesco Parisi, a leading, and extremely prolifi c law and economics scholar, benefi ts both the legal and economic communities with this comprehensive and very timely law and economics dictionary. It is not only law and economics scholars who should have this magnifi cent volume on their shelves, but also lawyers and economists, both academicians and practitioners, who wish to have … better access to that important fi eld.’Ariel Porat, Tel Aviv University

Behavioral Rationality and Heterogeneous Expectations in Complex Economic SystemsCars HommesUniversiteit van Amsterdam

Recognising that the economy is a complex system with boundedly rational interacting agents, applies complexity modelling to economics and fi nance.

‘Professor Hommes’ work is a major contribution to the understanding of intertemporal economic fl uctuations. In a world in which production and investment behavior is motivated

by expectations of the future, the way those expectations are formed becomes of the utmost importance. These expectations lead to dynamic systems, and the author draws on the rich literature developed for the study of mechanical and gravitational phenomena. These lead to the emergence of very complex behavior in markets driven by expectations, especially when different economic agents have different modes of forming expectations from data. The study of this book will have a profound impact on the theoretical and empirical analysis of securities markets and other forms of investment.’Kenneth J. Arrow, Joan Kenney Professor of Economics and Professor of Operations Research, Emeritus, Stanford University, and Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics, 1972

Tax Fairness and Folk JusticeSteven M. SheffrinUniversity of California, Davis

Much of the discussion of tax fairness today focuses on distribution – who gets what. But this is too limited a focus. This book demonstrates how an understanding of ‘folk justice’ can deepen our understanding of how tax systems actually work and how they might potentially be reformed.

Advance praise:‘A fabulous book! Filled with insights on a crucially important, but underexplored, aspect of tax policy. This book should be required reading for anyone interested in the politics or sociology of taxation.’David Gamage, University of California, Berkeley

Money and Banks in the American Political SystemKathryn C. LavelleCase Western Reserve University, Ohio

Lavelle argues that political sources of instability in fi nance derive from the intersection of market innovation and regulatory arbitrage. This book explores monetary, fi scal and regulatory policies within a political culture characterized by the separation of business and state,

and mistrust of power concentration in one political or economic institution.

‘Why are banks politically powerful in the United States? The novel argument of Lavelle’s important book is that banks are powerful because they have allies within the American political system that need banks in order to further their own bureaucratic objectives. For example, the Federal Reserve needs banks to help preserve its independence from the Congress, Congress needs banks to help allocate resources to favored constituents (e.g., homeowners), and fi nancial regulators need banks to help preserve their jurisdictions and budgets. Lavelle’s exploration of the bureaucratic politics of fi nancial policy making provides a new understanding of regulation, deregulation, innovation, and crises in American fi nance.’J.

Our Uncommon HeritageBiodiversity Change, Ecosystem Services, and Human Well-BeingCharles PerringsArizona State University

Our Uncommon Heritage explores the many dimensions of human-driven biodiversity change. It addresses the causes of biodiversity change, its hidden costs, and better ways to manage it. This is an important book for students, researchers and those engaged in biodiversity policy and management at the international level.

‘This book is much more than just another ecological book: it does a great service to the effort to stop Biodiversity being seen only as an assemblage of useful or charismatic species, and instead as ecosystems that house the planet’s biological wealth, providing us with a score of indispensable environmental services. Charles Perrings shows that ecosystems, a.k.a Biodiversity, need to be understood within their environmental and sociological contexts in an interdisciplinary form (by an integrated Biodiversity Science) in order to be sustainably managed. We must learn to become expert global gardeners to manage the ecosystems upon which we utterly depend.’Professor José Sarukhán, National Coordinator for Mexico’s National Commission for Knowledge and Use of Biodiversity (CONABIO)

U.S. Energy Policy and the Pursuit of FailurePeter Z. GrossmanButler University, Indiana

Grossman analyses the serial failures of U.S. energy policy, failures that have been extraordinarily wasteful, with little learned by policy makers in the process. Congresses and presidential administrations have repeatedly backed failed policies because they promise unrealistic solutions that are politically expedient with little chance of practical success.

‘U.S. Energy Policy and the Pursuit of Failure is exactly the kind of analysis that more economists should do. It brings in political transaction costs to explain how policies can go astray, endure, and reduce welfare. Given the plethora of policy recommendations

Managing Extreme Climate Change Risks through InsuranceW. J. Wouter BotzenVrije Universiteit, Amsterdam

In recent years, the damage caused by natural disasters has increased worldwide. This book considers how the most common mechanism for managing risk – insurance – can contribute to designing policies which limit the risks posed by natural disasters, and reduce their impact on society in a changing climate.

‘Are insurers the victims, the virtuous or the villains of climate change? W. J. Wouter Botzen’s book questions how a global business is going to cope when long-held assumptions are challenged by a changing climate. Yet insurers have proved to be innovators with a unique means of communicating risk to householders and businesses worldwide … via the prices they have to pay for insurance contracts. Botzen’s book demonstrates how insurers have a crucial role to play in the management of risk in a changing world.’Jim W. Hall, Professor of Climate and Environmental Risks, University of Oxford

Against the ConsensusRefl ections on the Great RecessionJustin Yifu LinPeking University, Beijing

In June 2008, Justin Yifu Lin was appointed Chief Economist of the World Bank, right before the eruption of the worst global fi nancial and economic crisis since the Great Depression. Drawing on experience from his privileged position, Lin offers unique refl ections on the cause of the crisis, why it was so serious and widespread, and its likely evolution. Arguing that conventional theories provide inadequate solutions, he proposes new initiatives for achieving global stability and avoiding the recurrence of similar crises in the future. He suggests that the crisis and the global imbalances both originated with the excess liquidity created by US fi nancial deregulation and loose monetary policy, and recommends the creation of a global Marshall Plan and a new supranational global reserve currency. This thought-provoking book will appeal to academics, graduate students, policy makers, and anyone interested in the global economy.

From Financial Crisis to StagnationThe Destruction of Shared Prosperity and the Role of EconomicsThomas I. Palley

This book offers a novel explanation of the fi nancial crisis and Great Recession that emphasizes the destruction of shared prosperity over the past thirty years. This contrasts with ‘black swan’ styled explanations that emphasize unexpected fi nancial shocks and speculation. The book explains why the economy is now confronted with stagnation rather than the quick recovery predicted by other accounts.

‘Thomas Palley has provided a penetrating analysis of the Great Recession, the weakness of the policy response, and the role of economic ideas in both. If we are to avoid the Great Stagnation – and build a more equitable and sustainable economic future – economists and policy makers must fundamentally change the way they think about economics and politics.

Questioning Credible CommitmentPerspectives on the Rise of Financial CapitalismEdited by D’Maris CoffmanUniversity of Cambridge

Adrian LeonardUniversity of Cambridge

and Larry NealUniversity of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign

Provides academics and practitioners with a broader understanding of the origins of fi nancial capitalism. A specially commissioned group of historians and economists examine and challenge North and Weingast’s (1989) ‘credible commitment’ thesis and show that parliamentary backing of public fi nance alone is insuffi cient to create confi dence in a state’s credit-worthiness.

‘Credible commitment is fundamental to fi nance. This volume of excellent essays by fi nancial historians explores the salient institutional theories about the development of credible commitment. In doing so, it illuminates a watershed period in the emergence of the modern economy.’William N. Goetzmann, Edwin J.

This book, a sequel to Inequality and Public Policy in China (2008), examines changes from 2002 to 2007 in the Chinese distribution of income and poverty, analyzes factors contributing to recent trends in inequality, providing insights into the potentially far-reaching consequences for China’s economy, politics and society.

Advance praise:‘Inequality – in incomes, in education, in opportunities – is one of the most important issues that China will have to deal with in the coming decades. This work edited by Li, Sato, and Sicular is the defi nitive book on China’s inequality. Based on high-quality data and careful analysis and clear presentation, we see that the challenge of dealing with inequality today and in the coming years is great indeed.’Scott Rozelle, Stanford University

Schumpeterian Analysis of Economic Catch-upKnowledge, Path-Creation, and the Middle-Income TrapKeun LeeSeoul National University

Written for academic researchers, graduate students, policy-makers and practitioners, this book analyzes the reasons why some Asian countries have been able to catch up successfully with the most advanced economies of the world while other countries appear to get trapped at a middle-income level in economic development.

‘Based on convincing theoretical and empirical analyses, Professor Lee argues that Korea and Taiwan’s success hinges on their shift, after reaching middle-income status in the 1980s, to specialize on shorter cycle technology-based sectors, which rely less on existing technologies, allow their economies to leverage the greater opportunities that arise from the emergence of new technologies, and enable them to continue the catching up process. This book is original, makes important contributions to the development literature, and should be read by anyone concerned about how to help a country overcome the middle-income trap.’Justin Yifu Lin, Peking University and Former Chief Economist, The World Bank

HIGHLIGHT

How Much have Global Problems Cost the World?A Scorecard from 1900 to 2050Edited by Bjørn LomborgCopenhagen Business School

A selection of the world’s leading economists discuss ten of the greatest challenges that have blighted human development since 1900, quantifying their costs in percent of GDP through to 2050. Rather than offering defi nitive answers, this innovative book encourages debate and will engage a wide readership.

‘For a volume covering such a large number of grim subjects, ranging from climate change and violent confl ict to loss of bioversity and malnutrition, this is a surprisingly uplifting read. While mankind has succeeded in creating some depressingly disastrous

social, natural and humanitarian disasters, we also have the power to alleviate and overcome these self-infl icted challenges. Bjorn Lomborg reminds us that for every part of mankind that can destroy, there is also one part that can create.’Tilman Brück, Director, Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI)

Social Assistance in Developing CountriesArmando BarrientosUniversity of Manchester

This book provides the fi rst comprehensive account of the global growth of social assistance transfers in developing countries. It explains the emergence of programmes such as Brazil’s Bolsa Família, India’s National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme and South Africa’s Child Support Grant, and examines their potential to address global poverty.

‘In this complex but accessible book, Armando Barrientos locates the exponential recent growth of social assistance programmes in developing countries in its historical and political context. Uniquely, he weaves together ethical arguments and economic analysis, to explain why social assistance has emerged as one of the most powerful tools for fi ghting poverty in our times. No-one who reads this seminal book can fail to be convinced that social assistance for the poor is not only effective but also affordable and ethically indispensable.’Stephen Devereux, Institute of Development Studies

The Limits of Institutional Reform in DevelopmentChanging Rules for Realistic SolutionsMatt AndrewsKennedy School of Government, Harvard University

Developing countries commonly adopt reforms to improve their governments yet they usually fail to produce more functional and effective governments. This book explains such failure and

proposes an approach to facilitate better reform results in developing country governments.

‘Institutional reform can only work if it is tailored to the local context. That is why so-called best-practice reforms typically fail: they create the illusion of progress, but not the reality. This important book goes beyond this lament to formulate a positive agenda of reform, built on incrementalism, problem-driven focus, and collaboration among stakeholders. Matt Andrews has seen the future, and it is in this book.’Dani Rodrik, Harvard University, and author of One Economics, Many Recipes

Economic Reform in IndiaChallenges, Prospects, and LessonsEdited by Nicholas C. HopeStanford Center for International Development

Anjini KocharStanford Center for International Development

Roger NollStanford University, California

and T. N. SrinivasanYale University and National University of Singapore

These essays are written by leading economists working on the Indian economy. They emphasize the importance of policies and institutions for growth and poverty reduction, stressing the success of sector-specifi c policies is dependent on the nature of markets and the functioning of institutions including those charged with regulating critical sectors.

‘The transformation of India in the past couple of decades from a slow growth economy to the ranks of the fastest growing economies in the world is not a mystery. Economic reforms unleashed the growth potential of the sleeping giant. But what exactly were these reforms? This volume, with contributions by an all-star cast of expert economists, is the defi nitive description of the wide-ranging economic reforms undertaken by the Indian government. It will be read by academics with an interest in growth and the Indian economy, as well as by policy makers around the developing world who want their countries to emulate the Indian experience.’Mohsin Khan, Rafi k Hariri Center for the Middle East, Washington DC

Portfolio Management under StressA Bayesian-Net Approach to Coherent Asset AllocationRiccardo RebonatoPIMCO

and Alexander DenevRoyal Bank of Scotland

Portfolio Management under Stress combines the insights of modern portfolio theory with the well-established Bayesian-net methodology to offer a novel solution to the important problem of asset allocation under conditions of market distress. This insightful book is an important resource for practitioners and research academics in the post-fi nancial crisis world.

‘Rebonato and Denev have demolished the status quo with their radical extension of best-practice portfolio management. The key is to integrate realistic ‘extreme’ scenarios into risk assessment, and they show how to use Bayesian networks to characterize precisely those scenarios. The book is rigorous yet completely practical, and reading it is a pleasure, with the ‘Rebonato touch’ evident throughout.’Francis X. Diebold, Paul F. and Warren S.

Community Capitalism in ChinaThe State, the Market, and CollectivismXiaoshuo HouSt Lawrence University, New York

Hou offers the ‘both/and’ perspective and discusses the intertwining of the economy, the state and social relations. Focusing on three villages in China – Nanjie, Huaxi and Shangyuan – with collectively owned enterprises, villagers become shareholders in these enterprises and receive social welfare benefi ts and/or dividends.

‘Community Capitalism in China is a welcome addition to the body of research on economic reform in China. It is a beautiful example of the ways in which grounded research can both illuminate eye-opening stories about transforming economies and also advance our theoretical understanding of the forces driving that transformation. Professor Hou also boldly steps beyond the tired state-versus-market mindset, offering a fresh view of how China’s economy works.’Doug Guthrie, Dean, The George Washington School of Business

The Decade of the MultilatinasJavier SantisoESADE Business School

Latin American multinationals (multilatinas) have been central in the rise of emerging markets in the last few decades. This book analyses the trends, the countries and the fi rms involved, and explores the implications for the US, China, Spain and the rest of Europe.

‘The continued growth in global trade and investment is rapidly forcing us to rethink the way we look at the role of the emerging economies. Early in this long process, the focus was on local production in these economies, based on cheap labor and abundant resources. But much more is going on. This timely book focuses on the impressive international expansion of Latin corporations, an important topic that thus far has not received much attention. I highly recommend it to all audiences.’Arminio Fraga, Founder of Gávea Investimentos (acquired by JP Morgan) and former Governor of the Central Bank of Brazil

The Foundations of Worldwide Economic IntegrationPower, Institutions, and Global Markets, 1850–1930Edited by Christof DejungUniversität Konstanz, Germany

and Niels P. PeterssonSheffi eld Hallam University

The essays in this volume discuss worldwide economic integration between 1850 and 1930, challenging the popular description of the period after 1918 as one of deglobalisation. By showing that institutionalism altered its shape in circumstances that challenged international trade, and presenting case studies from various countries, this book offers a fresh perspective on economic globalisation.

‘It has become commonplace to argue that institutions and rules matter greatly to economic performance. But how did these institutions and rules emerge and take the particular shapes that they did? Christof Dejung’s and Niels P. Petersson’s signifi cant collection takes a sustained look at global trade in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and shows how European merchants, Indian peasants, imperial statesmen, and others, constructed these institutions and rules. Far from a defi nite set of tools, the institutions that enabled global trade were the outcome of sustained social contestation on local marketplaces, in national politics, and across ocean-spanning trade networks. Power is back to the debate

American Labor and Economic CitizenshipNew Capitalism from World War I to the Great DepressionMark HendricksonUniversity of California, San Diego

In the 1920s, a diverse group of social investigators and policy makers addressed a range of long-standing and seemingly intractable problems, confi dent that the period provided a unique moment full of opportunities. Led by Herbert Hoover, the group came to understand that a new, fair and prosperous version of capitalism could be achieved through steady economic growth.

‘Mark Hendrickson has crafted an important narrative that explains how early twentieth-century American business leaders, social scientists, and political activists worked to regulate, stabilize, and strengthen a newly confi gured national economy. He demonstrates how their efforts were ironically paralleled by the emerging resistance of marginalized and underrepresented groups (women, African Americans, and Mexican Americans) to the worst excesses of an economic system that, while possessed of many virtues, also subsisted on inequality and injustice.’Michael A.

The Dimensions of ConsequentialismEthics, Equality and RiskMartin PetersonTechnische Universiteit Eindhoven, Holland

Consequentialism is a major theory of ethics.

This multidimensional perspective helps articulate views about ethics in a precise, theoretical framework.2013 228 x 152 mm 224pp 2 b/w illus.  13 tables  978-1-107-03303-0 Hardback US$90.00

The Institutionalist Movement in American Economics, 1918-1947Science and Social ControlMalcolm RutherfordUniversity of Victoria, British Columbia

This book deals with the institutionalist movement in American economics, a movement that was a signifi cant part of American economics in the interwar period. This movement emphasized the importance of institutions, an empirical approach and the need for new forms of ‘social control’.

‘This book establishes, more thoroughly than any previous study, the breadth and importance of the interwar institutionalist movement in the United States. It is likely to become the standard work on an episode that is central to the history of American economics in the twentieth century.’Roger E. Backhouse, University of Birmingham

The Cambridge History of CapitalismVolume 1: The Rise of Capitalism: From Ancient Origins to 1848General Editor Larry NealUniversity of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign

and Jeffrey G. WilliamsonHarvard University, Massachusetts

The fi rst volume of The Cambridge History of Capitalism provides a comprehensive account of the evolution of capitalism from its earliest beginnings. Starting with its distant origins in ancient Babylon, successive chapters trace progression up to the ‘Promised Land’ of capitalism in America. Adopting a wide geographical coverage and comparative perspective, the international team of authors discuss the contributions of Greek, Roman and Asian civilizations to the development of capitalism, as well as the Chinese, Indian and Arab empires. They determine what features of modern capitalism were present at each time and place, and why the various precursors of capitalism did not survive. Looking at the eventual success of medieval Europe and the examples of city-states in northern Italy and the Low Countries, the authors address how British mercantilism led to European imitations and American successes, and ultimately, how capitalism became global.Contributors: Larry Neal, Michael Jursa, Alain Bresson, Willem M.

The second volume of The Cambridge History of Capitalism provides an authoritative reference on the spread and impact of capitalism across the world, and the varieties of responses to it. Employing a wide geographical coverage and strong comparative outlook, a team of leading scholars explore the global consequences that capitalism has had for industry, agriculture and trade, along with the reactions by governments, fi rms and markets. The authors consider how World War I halted the initial spread of capitalism, but global capitalism arose again by the close of the twentieth century. They explore how the responses of labor movements, compounded by the reactions by political regimes, whether defensive or proactive, led to diverse military and welfare consequences. Benefi cial results eventually emerged, but the rise and spread of capitalism has not been easy or smooth. This defi nitive volume will have widespread appeal amongst historians, economists and political scientists.Contributors: Kevin H. O’Rourke, Jeffrey G. Williamson, Robert C.

Democracy and its Elected EnemiesAmerican Political Capture and Economic DeclineSteven Rosefi eldeUniversity of North Carolina, Chapel Hill

and Daniel Quinn MillsHarvard Business School

This book reveals that American politicians have usurped their constitutional authority, substituting their economic and political sovereignty for the people’s. Rosefi elde and Mills contend that this usurpation is the source of America’s economic decline and fading international power, and provide an action plan for restoring ‘true’ democracy in which politicians only provide the services people vote for within the civil and property rights protections set forth in the constitution.

Advance praise:‘Once again Rosefi elde and Mills take no prisoners. Neither the right nor the left emerge unscathed from this withering account of the

decay of American democracy. While this book may not comfort the affl icted, it should certainly affl ict the comfortable. And what’s more, it should make readers think.’Stephen J. Blank, Strategic Studies Institute, United States Army War College

Economic Politics in the United StatesThe Costs and Risks of DemocracySecond editionWilliam R. KeechDuke University, North Carolina

This book evaluates democratic institutions and processes with respect to their impact on macroeconomic performance. The deterioration in fi scal discipline has made it clear how important informal institutions are, and this second edition demonstrates this. Although polarization has increased, it would not be as consequential with stronger informal institutions, especially those of budget balance over the business cycle.

Advance praise:‘In this important new edition, Bill Keech, one of the fi rst political scientists to apply macroeconomic tools and research to political questions, revisits his prior inquiry on the ‘health’ of economic politics. But, in doing so, he also extends his discussion to incorporate many new fi ndings in macro political economy. These additional results enhance our understanding of how and how well representative government performs. What is more, this book refl ects the author’s qualities: clear in exposition and sober in outlook. Very few social scientists have his scholarly breadth to engage the varied literatures from different disciplines – and even fewer could have written a contribution like this.’Jim Granato, University of Houston

Paying for the Liberal StateThe Rise of Public Finance in Nineteenth-Century EuropeEdited by José Luís CardosoUniversidade de Lisboa

and Pedro LainsUniversidade de Lisboa

This book is about the rise and development of taxation systems, expenditure programs, and debt regimes in Europe from the early nineteenth century to the beginning of World War I. Its main purpose is to describe and explain the process by which fi nancial resources were raised and managed.

‘Historians have long puzzled over the fact that taxes, government spending, and government debt rose as a share of the economy at the same time that institutions became more liberal in the sense of allowing, and lightly taxing, freer markets. This well-structured team study reconciles global patterns with the diversity of eight countries’ individual trajectories across the long nineteenth century. Yes, successful development did follow a general evolution in fi scal structure, yet the national departures from the global path prove as instructive as the average tendency itself.’Peter H.

It explains how both the gold standard and central bank work and how the Federal Reserve became unconstitutional.

Dangerous Neighbors: Volcanoes and CitiesGrant Heiken

What are the real risks posed by a volcanic eruption near a city – what is fact and what is myth? How have volcanic eruptions affected cities in the past, and how can we learn from these events? Why do communities continue to develop in such locations, despite the obvious threat? In this fascinating book, Grant Heiken explores global examples of cities at risk from volcanoes, from Italy, the US, Mexico,

Ecuador, The Philippines, Japan and New Zealand, providing historical and contemporary eruption case studies to illustrate volcanic hazards, and cities’ efforts to respond to them, both good and poor. He shows that truly successful volcanic hazard mitigation cannot be accomplished without collaboration between experts in geology and natural hazards, public health, medicine, city and infrastructure planning, and civil protection. This is a topical and engaging read for anyone interested in the history and future activity of these dangerous neighbors.2013 228 x 152 mm 196pp 57 b/w illus.  978-1-107-03923-0 Hardback US$30.00

Making the Modern American Fiscal StateLaw, Politics, and the Rise of Progressive Taxation, 1877–1929Ajay K. MehrotraIndiana University

Making the Modern American Fiscal State chronicles the rise of the US system of direct and progressive taxation, providing historical perspective on the intellectual, legal and administrative foundations of the current US tax regime. Ajay K. Mehrotra explores what tax reformers at the turn of the twentieth century accomplished and how their limited achievements were contested at nearly every turn.

Advance praise:‘Mehrotra has crafted a narrative that is fundamental to understanding the modern American state. By unearthing the intellectual, economic, political, and emotional spade work required to lay the groundwork for a major conceptual change in public policy, he shows how a highly decentralized, politicized, and indirect method of taxation was transformed into a centralized, neutrally administered, direct method of taxation with great potential to achieve redistributive ends.’Brian Balogh, University of Virginia
