America's Failing Economy and the Rise of Ronald Reagan

America's Failing Economy and the Rise of Ronald Reagan

Eric R. Crouse

Springer International Publishing AG
2018
sidottu
This book examines one of the most important economic outcomes in American history—the breakdown of the Keynesian Revolution. Drawing on economic literature, the memoirs of economists and politicians, and the popular press, Eric Crouse examines how economic decline in the 1970s precipitated a political revolution. Keynesian thought flourished through the presidencies of Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, and Gerald Ford, until stagflation devastated American workers and Jimmy Carter’s economic policies faltered, setting the stage for the 1980 presidential campaign. Tracking years of shifting public opinion and colorful debate between free-market and Keynesian economists, this book illuminates a neglected era of American economic history and shows how Ronald Reagan harnessed a vision of small government and personal freedom that transformed the American political landscape.

Analyse des Artikels "The Nature of the Firm von Ronald H. Coase
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2013 im Fachbereich BWL - Sonstiges, Note: 2, Fachhochschule Salzburg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Ronald Coase hat im Laufe seines Lebens Artikel verfasst, welche das wirtschaftliche Denken bis heute beeinflussen. Die bekanntesten sind "The nature of the Firm" (1937) und "The Problem of social Costs" (1960). Aus diesen Arbeiten wurde das Coase Theorem abgeleitet, wof r er 1991 auch den Nobelpreis f r "seine Entdeckung und Kl rung der Bedeutung der sogenannten Transaktionskosten und der Verf gungsrechte f r die institutionelle Struktur und das Funktionieren der Wirtschaft" erhielt (The Ronald Coase Institute 2012). Diese Seminararbeit befasst ich mit dem Artikel "The nature of the Firm." Bemerkenswert ist, dass der Artikel trotz seines Alters noch heute aktuell ist und, dass Ronald Coase erst 26 Jahre alt war, als er diesen geschrieben hat. Ronald Coase stellt in diesem Artikel die Frage, warum es Unternehmen im wirtschaftsgebilde gibt und welche Faktoren Unternehmensgr ndungen beg nstigen. Ronald Coase betrachtet die Unternehmen als Teil des Wirtschaftsorganismus, welche direkten Einfluss auf das konomische System haben bzw. vice versa auch von externen Einfl ssen betroffen sind. Ronald Coase bezeichnet die dadurch entstehenden Kosten als Transaktionskosten und erl utert den Einfluss von Unsicherheit auf die Unternehmen. In den Vertragsverh ltnissen sprich Ronald Coase von "Arbeitgeber und Arbeitnehmer" bzw. "Meister und Diener" (Coase 1937, 403f) ohne dabei au ervertragliche Arbeitsverh ltnisse, wie in der Familie oder im Freundeskreis, zu ber cksichtigen.

Internationaler Wertewandel und Wirtschaftsentwicklung. "Die Stille Revolution" nach Ronald Inglehart
Referat (Ausarbeitung) aus dem Jahr 2003 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Sonstiges, Note: 1,7, Universität Hohenheim (Institut für Sozialwissenschaften), Veranstaltung: Wirtschaftssoziologie I, Sprache: Deutsch, Anmerkungen: Ausarbeitung plus 2 Seiten Handout plus 44 Seiten Präsentation. , Abstract: Der amerikanische Politikwissenschaftler Ronald Inglehart hat mit seiner Theorie der "Stillen Revolution" die international vergleichende Wertewandelforschung seit Anfang der siebziger Jahre maßgeblich geprägt. 1971 veröffentlichte er im "American Political Science Review" den aufsehenerregenden Artikel "The Silent Revolution", indem er zum ersten Mal die von ihm beobachteten weltwirtschaftlichen Veränderungen durch seine Theorie des Wertewandels erklärte. 1977 führte er diese Theorie in seinem Buch "The Silent Revolution: Changing Values and Political Styles" weiter aus und belegte sie mit zusätzlichen empirischen Daten. Darauf folgten in etwa zehnjährigen Abständen die beiden Werke "Cultural Change" und "Modernization and Postmodernization", in denen er wiederum neu erhobene Daten zur Untermauerung und Differenzierung seiner Wertewandeltheorie präsentierte. In seinen Büchern untersucht Inglehart die Auswirkungen von Modernisierung und Postmodernisierung auf das wirtschaftliche System sowie auf das politische System einer Gesellschaft. Bei dieser Arbeit im Rahmen des Seminars "Wirtschaftssoziologie I" beschränke ich mich bei meinen Forschungsfragen aus inhaltlichen Gründen jedoch auf die Auswirkungen auf das wirtschaftliche System. Wie bereits Weber sucht Inglehart nach Faktoren, die das Wirtschaftswachstum einer Gesellschaft erklären können. Eng mit diesem Problem verbunden ist deshalb die Frage, ob Webers Thesen in der heutigen Zeit noch immer Bestand haben. Die Forschungsfragen dieser Arbeit lauten demgemäß: (1) Welche Faktoren beeinflussen primär das Wirtschaftswachstum einer Gesellschaft? (2) Haben Webers Thesen heute noch immer Bestand oder müssen sie verworfen bzw. modifiziert werden?
Second Friends: C.S. Lewis and Ronald Knox in Conversation
To learn more about C.S. Lewis visit C. S. Lewis and Ronald Knox were two of the most popular authors of Christian apologetics in the twentieth century ... and for many years they were neighbors in Oxford. In Second Friends, Milton Walsh delves into their writings and compares their views on a variety of compelling topics, such as the existence of God, the divinity of Christ, the problem of suffering, miracles, the way of Love, the role of religion in society, prayer, and more. They both bring to the conversation a passionate love of truth, clarity of thought, and a wonderful wit. Lewis and Knox both experienced powerful conversions to the Christian faith, an important aspect that Walsh covers in detail. Both wrote about their conversion experiences because they wanted to explain to others why they took that life-changing step. They each valued logical thinking, and they professed that the Christian faith should be embraced, not only because it is good, but because it is true. Reason provides the intellectual foundation of belief for both authors. For both these apologists, Christianity is much more than a doctrinal system: it is above all a personal relationship with Christ that entails romance, struggle, and loyalty. A common adjective applied to Lewis and Knox as writers was "imaginative". They saw lack of imagination as a great hurdle to faith, and they believed that imagination is a privileged path leading to a deeper apprehension of the truth. Lewis and Knox, while convinced that the Christian faith rested on sound reason and that it fulfilled the deepest human longings, also knew that God is a mystery--and so is the human heart. In the face of these twin mysteries, Milton Walsh shows that both men approached their evangelizing efforts in a spirit of humility, as he explores how they appealed to the mind, the heart, and the imagination in presenting the Christian faith. "It is a great delight to see that Fr. Milton Walsh has brought together the incomparable Knox and the indomitable Lewis in a way that enables us to understand both of them better." --Joseph Pearce Author, C.S. Lewis and the Catholic Church "This--to quote C.S.Lewis--'is the most noble and joyous book I've read these ten years.'... This book has led me deeper into Lewis's own writings than any I've read." --Walter Hooper, C.S. Lewis' former secretary and biographer
The Judge: William P. Clark, Ronald Reagan's Top Hand

The Judge: William P. Clark, Ronald Reagan's Top Hand

The most important biographical record of the Reagan years--from the Reagan governorship to the 40th president's period in the White House--has not been written, until now: it is the story of Ronald Reagan's indispensable man, confidant, and single most important adviser: William P. Clark, known to many as simply "The Judge." With his record, resume, and the respect he earned from so many quarters, why did Bill Clark never pen an autobiography? Why did he never write memoirs, even while less influential advisers advanced their stories in the 1980s, proclaiming theirs to be the authoritative insider's account of the Reagan presidency? And why did Clark not write that story as everyone--from top Reagan officials such as Cap Weinberger to authoritative Reagan biographers such as Lou Cannon--urged him to do so? Bill Clark's reluctance to promote himself stopped him from picking up pen and paper. Instead, at long last, he acquiesced to the writing of this biography. Paul Kengor did the convincing, and Pat Clark Doerner worked with Clark to painstakingly review the manuscript--after Kengor and Doerner together wrote this fascinating account of one man's life, from a ranch house to the White House and then, again, back to the ranch--to what Ronald Reagan called the sunset of life. Reagan biographers such as Edmund Morris and major publications like the New York Times Magazine and Time all agree: Bill Clark was Ronald Reagan's single most trusted aide, perhaps the most powerful national security advisor in American history. His close relationship with Reagan allows special insight into the President as well as other close friends from the earliest Reagan years: Lyn Nofziger, Cap Weinberger and Bill Casey. Also featured are the exquisite Clare Boothe Luce; the elegant Nancy Reagan; the mercurial Alexander Haig; Britain's "Iron Lady," Margaret Thatcher; France's wily Frantois Mitterrand, the saintly Pope John Paul II, and an anxious Saddam Hussein, among others. With Reagan, Clark accomplished many things, but none more profound than the track they laid to undermine Soviet communism, to win the Cold War. As this book shows, Ronald Reagan and Bill Clark, two ranchers, a president and his top hand, truly changed history. At long last, over two decades after that significant accomplishment, Bill Clark shares the details of that extraordinary effort, many of which--as readers of this book will learn--have never been reported.

Three non-fiction books in one edition - from the criminalisation of homosexuality in the 1880s to the world of radical psychiatry and LSD in the 1960s, and all studies of people who were able to see the world differently. Scandal visits Dublin in 1884 when the public furore about homosexuality in high places led to its criminalisation across the UK, seen though the eyes of one of those closely involved - the author's great-great-grandfather. V for Victory introduces us to the maverick operation of the BBC European Service in the Second World War and the most successful radio propaganda campaign ever organised, in the teeth of opposition from the establishment. Ronald Laing looks at the extraordinary achievements of the radical psychiatrist R D Laing, doubting, experimenting and fighting his own profession to make them more humane.
Die Indienpolitik Der USA Unter John F. Kennedy Und Ronald Reagan
Der Zerfall der Sowjetunion hat die machtpolitischen Strukturen des internationalen Systems grundlegend verandert. Auch in Sudasien hat dies zu einer Entflechtung der machtpolitischen Strukturen gefuhrt. Indien hat damit seinen wichtigsten Verbundeten, die Sowjetunion, verloren. Die Beziehungen hingegen zu der ehemaligen Gegenmacht USA werden derzeit neu konzipiert. Allerdings ist die amerikanische Aussenpolitik gegenuber Indien auch heute noch, fast funfzig Jahre nach der Unabhangigkeit (1947) Neu Delhis, von Problemen und bilateralen Differenzen gekennzeichnet, die die wechselvolle Beziehung beider Lander widerspiegeln. Die amerikanische Aussenpolitik gegenuber Indien wurde dabei von zwei popularen Prasidenten wesentlich gepragt: John F. Kennedy und Ronald Reagan. Die Aussenpolitik der beiden Prasidenten ist oft und vielseitig untersucht worden, aber eine beide Prasidenten am Beispiel Indiens vergleichende politikwissenschaftliche Analyse fehlt. Diese Lucke versucht die anhand von Primarquellen durchgefuhrte Untersuchung zur amerikanischen Indienpolitik unter John F. Kennedy und Ronald Reagan zu schliessen."
