He was a founder of the Republican party in Maine. He was again and again at the front in denominationalmatters in the Free Baptist churches in Maine and New England.
Money talks : om kronor, ören, tillgångar, cash flow, likvider, ltro, qe och annan bullshit
Pengar är en världslig sak. Men det är mycket prat om dem År 2004 utkom Lars Melin med den uppmärksammade boken Corporate Bullshit. Nu en subprimekris, en finanskris, en skuldkris och till och med en börspeak senare kommer fortsättningen: Money talks. Lars Melin riktar ett avslöjande sökarljus mot det som sägs få vår jord att snurra: pengar. Eller är det kanske snarare pratet om pengar som gör att det snurrar, både på finansmarknaden och i huvudet? För pratas gör det orden är många och det är fler än någonsin som pratar. Banker, politiker, press och privatpersoner alla pratar pengar. Men finns ens pengar annat än i form av ord som tillgångar, resurser, likvider, placeringar ? Eller är de bara ettor och nollor? Följ med Lars Melin på en upplysande och underhållande tur genom aktiemarknadsjargong, kris-terminologi, finansmarknadstyper, managementfloskler och annan intressant bullshit.

Colin Powell rose from the hardscrabble streets of the Bronx to become the man Newsweek calls "...the most respected figure in American public life."

When George Price died in January 1975, his funeral in London was attended by five homeless men. This title includes Price's personal and professional journey that is woven into a sweeping arc of modern politics and science that takes us from Darwin's Beagle to the court of the Russian Tsar, and from Marxist manifestos to Nazi heresies.
The Economics of Financial Markets and Institutions

The Economics of Financial Markets and Institutions

Oren Sussman

Oxford University Press
2023
sidottu
The Economics of Financial Markets and Institutions is based on introductory lectures on financial economics delivered to master students in law in the Department of Law at the University of Oxford. The aim is to keep the levels of mathematical complexity to a minimum while, at the same time, to aim high, conceptually, emphasizing the close links between financial and economic analysis. The book assumes no previous knowledge of economics; rather economic concepts are developed from first principles, then applied, up front, to the analysis of financial markets and institutions. Though aimed, originally, at an audience of lawyers, the book is suitable for anyone interested in a better understanding of the rich and complex institutional structure of financial markets.
Algorithmic Harm

Algorithmic Harm

Oren Bar-Gill; Cass R. Sunstein

OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS INC

Will algorithms help people or hurt them? What about artificial intelligence in general? If consumers know what they need to know and do not suffer from behavioral biases, algorithms and AI are likely to be helpful. Consumers will be more likely to get what they want and need. But if consumers lack information, algorithms in particular will be able to convince them to make harmful or foolish choices. And if consumers suffer from behavioral biases, such as unrealistic optimism or a focus on the short term, algorithms will be able to produce serious harms. In Algorithmic Harm: Protecting People in the Age of Artificial Intelligence, Oren Bar-Gill and Cass Sunstein consider the harms and benefits of AI and algorithms and catalog the different ways in which algorithms are being or may be used in consumer and other markets. The authors identify the market conditions under which these uses injure consumers and consider policy and regulatory responses that could reduce the risks consumers, investors, workers, and voters face now—and in the future. Democracy and self-government are at risk; there is a great deal that can be done to reduce that risk.
The Politics of Culture in Quattrocento Europe

The Politics of Culture in Quattrocento Europe

Oren Margolis

Oxford University Press
2016
sidottu
The poet-king without a throne appears here in an entirely new light. In The Politics of Culture in Quattrocento Europe: René of Anjou in Italy, Oren Margolis explores how this French prince and exiled king of Naples (1409-1480) engaged his Italian network in a programme of cultural politics conducted with an eye towards a return to power in the peninsula. Built on a series of original interpretations of humanistic and artistic material (chiefly Latin orations and illuminated manuscripts of classical texts), this is also a case study for a 'diplomatic approach' to culture. It recasts its source base as a form of high-level communication for a hyper-literate elite of those who could read the works created by humanist and artistic agents for their constituent parts: the potent words or phrases and relevant classical allusions; the channels through which a given work was commissioned or transmitted; and then the nature of the network gathered around a political agenda. This is a volume for all those interested in the politics and culture of later medieval Europe and Renaissance Italy: the kings of France and dukes of Burgundy, the Medici, the Sforza, the Venetians, and their armies, ambassadors, and adversaries all appear here; so do Giovanni Bellini, Andrea Mantegna, Guarino of Verona, and their respective intellectual and artistic circles. Emerging from it is a challenge to conventional interpretations of the politics of humanism, and a new vision of the Quattrocento: a century in which the Italian Renaissance began its takeover of Europe, but in which Renaissance culture was itself shaped by its European political, social, and diplomatic context.
Seduction by Contract

Seduction by Contract

Oren Bar-Gill

Oxford University Press
2012
sidottu
Consumers routinely enter into long-term contracts with providers of goods and services - from credit cards, mortgages, cell phones, insurance, TV, and internet services to household appliances, theatre and sports events, health clubs, magazine subscriptions, transportation, and more. Across these consumer markets certain design features of contracts are recurrent, and puzzling. Why do sellers design contracts to provide short-term benefits and impose long-term costs? Why are low introductory prices so common? Why are the contracts themselves so complex, with numerous fees and interest rates, tariffs and penalties? Seduction by Contract explains how consumer contracts emerge from the interaction between market forces and consumer psychology. Consumers are short-sighted and optimistic, so sellers compete to offer short-term benefits, while imposing long-term costs. Consumers are imperfectly rational, so sellers hide the true costs of products and services in complex contracts. Consumers are seduced by contracts that increase perceived benefits, without actually providing more benefits, and decrease perceived costs, without actually reducing the costs that consumers ultimately bear. Competition does not help this behavioural market failure. It may even exacerbate it. Sellers, operating in a competitive market, have no choice but to align contract design with the psychology of consumers. A high-road seller who offers what she knows to be the best contract will lose business to the low-road seller who offers what the consumer mistakenly believes to be the best contract. Put bluntly, competition forces sellers to exploit the biases and misperceptions of their customers. Seduction by Contract argues that better legal policy can help consumers and enhance market efficiency. Disclosure mandates provide a promising avenue for regulatory intervention. Simple, aggregate disclosures can help consumers make better choices. Comprehensive disclosures can facilitate the work of intermediaries, enabling them to better advise consumers. Effective disclosure would expose the seductive nature of consumer contracts and, as a result, reduce sellers' incentives to write inefficient contracts. Developing its explanation through a general framework and detailed case studies of three major consumer markets (credit cards, mortgages, and cell phones), Seduction by Contract is an accessible introduction to the law and economics of consumer contracts, and a powerful critique of current regulatory policy.
