Abstract:
The Federal Reserve Bank in May 2016, reported “median family income is in the range between $40,000 and $49,999.” The middle class is shrinking. Income and wealth inequalities are hitting the demand curve causing anemic growth and more frequent, severe economic downturns. In 2011–2012, corporate profits had risen to constitute their largest share of the economy since 1929. The campaign finance cases and the increase in income inequality also appear highly correlated with a steep increase in government deficits and national debt. The logical implication of this work is that democracy may be necessary to establish, or sustain, capitalism. If political power becomes concentrated in relatively few people, then economic power will likely become similarly concentrated: oligarchy will lead to oligopoly. If democracy is necessary to obtain sustained capitalism, and if distributive autonomy is necessary to sustain democracy, it would appear that distributive autonomy is necessary to sustain capitalism.

Abstract:
Chapter 5 focuses on how prices affect food and nutrition choices. This chapter presents and discusses the law of demand and the demand curve. The chapter explains the importance of the slope of the demand curve and how this relates to the price elasticity of demand. It also evaluates possible changes in food consumption, induced by a change in price, relative to a nutrient or food recommendation level. Factors that would cause the demand curve to change (shift) are discussed. The chapter explains the important difference between the demand curve and demand function. The chapter closes with some of the main empirical findings relating price to food choices and nutrition.

Abstract:
Basic theory analyses the entrepreneur's role in the economic system. Of the four conventional factors of production, namely: land, labour, capital, and organization (or entrepreneurship), objective demand and supply schedules are possible for the first three. By contrast, a demand curve for entrepreneurship cannot be drawn, as it is for the entrepreneurs themselves to decide whether or not to enter the production process as a freelancer. Harvey Leibenstein, a development economist, however, constructed a supply curve for entrepreneurs, linking their anticipations of per capita income growth with the rate of expansion of entrepreneurship in terms of their contribution to such growth in incomes. Hence many theorists portray the corporate drives of entrepreneurs as forward-looking ones. How, then, can biographies most satisfactorily discuss such drives in a chronological narrative of a life from cradle to the grave? Childhood influences, such as premature responsibilities through a parent's death, and struggles for recognition in early adulthood have to be brought out, as well as the precise explanation of finally winning through.

Abstract:
Chapter 7 incorporates the role of information in a very general way into the economic framework developed in Chapters 3–6. The focus of the analysis is to determine how information may affect preferences and therefore influence the demand curve and demand function for foods. The chapter evaluates possible changes in food consumption induced by a change in an information campaign relative to a nutrient or food recommendation level. It shows how other factors may moderate or offset informational campaigns that are designed to improve healthy food choices. The chapter closes with some of the main empirical findings relating different information campaigns to food and nutrition choices.

Abstract:
This chapter, the longest in the book, explains the fundamentals of microeconomics and its application to the analysis of health and healthcare. The concepts of scarcity and opportunity costs lie at the heart of the economics discipline. Based on the standard production function with two input factors, the important concept of cost-efficiency is explained; and based on the premise of scarcity in the availability of input factors, the concept of opportunity costs is explained. An important insight from consumer theory is that people make trade-offs. Their preferences and income determine their chosen combination of goods, as illustrated by an indifference curve. An important piece of information for policymakers attempting to intervene in people’s demand for healthy, and unhealthy, goods is to know how sensitive demand is to changing prices and income. The chapter explains and defines elasticities of demand.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter covers the economic fundamentals of commodity markets (i.e., what shapes the evolution of the price of raw materials) in three steps. First, it covers the theories explaining why the futures curve can be upward or downward sloping, an essential element for commodity producing companies. The evolution of inventories and hedging pressures are the two dominant sources of explanation. Second, the chapter reviews the fundamentals of commodity spot prices: technologies, supply, demand, and speculation. Production costs draw the long-term evolution of prices, but demand and supply shocks can trigger substantial variations in commodity prices. Third, the chapter presents how commodity prices interact with the business cycle. Commodities are influenced by the world activity but can also have a material impact on it.

Abstract:
Chapter 6 incorporates a time constraint into the analysis presented in Chapter 5. It demonstrates how some individuals may be “time poor but money rich” but others may be “time rich but money poor”. The chapter shows how the money price and time price of a good can be brought together to create what economists call the “full price” of a good. The chapter explains how this extension affects the demand curve and demand function from Chapter 5. To make the discussion policy relevant, the possible change in food consumption induced by a change in money price or time price is evaluated relative to a nutrient or food recommendation level. The chapter closes with some of the main empirical findings relating time to food choices and nutrition.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines Robert Clower’s 1959 article about the knowledge requirements for an equilibrium model of the supplier, and asks whether universal maximization is always an implication of equilibrium attainment. Clower’s article challenges Arrow’s suggestion of using an imperfect competitor. But the equilibrium reached by an ignorant monopolist may be an equilibrium state but unlike general equilibrium models, the equilibrium that Clower’s monopolist reaches is sub-optimal. The main reason for it being a sub-optimum is that the monopolist may not be maximizing profit even though the monopolist thinks so. The reason for his monopolist reaching a sub-optimal state is that the monopolist does not know the market’s demand curve and so must make possibly false assumptions about it.

Abstract:
Chapter 14 introduces the ideas of consumer and producer sovereignty and addresses the questions: Who determines the prices and quantities of food in our food system? Consumers? Producers? Both? The chapter demonstrates that market prices and quantities occur where consumers and producers come together in the market as represented by the market supply and demand curves. The chapter shows how changes in demand and supply will affect prices and quantities in the market. Using the demand and supply framework, the chapter analyzes the expected impact of a proposed tax on sugar sweetened beverages to decrease caloric intake. The chapter ends with a demonstration and discussion of the effects of multiple changes in demand or supply on the market equilibrium prices and quantities.

Abstract:
This book is about good government, especially an ethical and fair government and constitution. It has five key ideas. Understanding these ideas is critical to addressing the problems besetting the American political and economic systems. First, the book proposes the new principle of distributive autonomy to guarantee first-order rights. The principle sharply contrasts with modern, individualistic libertarian ideas. Good governance must be centrally concerned with the distribution of freedom for all. If your own autonomy matters, so does everyone else’s. Valuing the autonomy of others is authentic autonomy. A core aspect of ethical governance must value the autonomy of everyone. Second, the book demonstrates how the campaign finance cases violate distributive autonomy and completely subvert the American system of government. Third, the book deploys Thomas Piketty’s data to correlate the campaign finance cases with the dramatic rise in wealth and particularly income inequality in the United States. Fourth, the book demonstrates that the distorted allocation of income has adversely affected the centrally important demand curve of the American economy, which may be helping to drive economic stagnation and the debt overhang. Fifth, the book concludes that political freedom, in the sense of distributive autonomy, is necessary for participatory democracy and that participatory democracy may be a necessary condition to sustain long-term, prosperous capitalism.

Full text
Abstract:
This book analyses the political economy of economic development using two stylized facts models of rent-driven growth. The models show that: (i) the resource curse is a variant of a wider rent curse that can be driven by geopolitical rent (foreign aid), labour rent (worker remittances), or regulatory rent (government manipulation of relative prices); (ii) the rent curse is caused by policy failure and is avoidable; (iii) the global incidence of the rent curse varies over time, which reflects development policy fashions; and (iv) the intensity of the rent curse also varies with rent linkages. Rent cycling theory posits that low rent incentivizes the elite to grow the economy to become wealthy, whereas high rent encourages siphoning rent for immediate enrichment at the expense of sustainable and diversified economic growth. The contrasting incentives trigger divergent policies and structural change. Low rent motivates the efficient allocation of inputs in line with the economy’s comparative advantage in labour-intensive exports, which drives: structural change; rapid egalitarian economic growth; and incremental democratization. High rent, however, elicits contests to capture rent for immediate enrichment so the economy absorbs rent too quickly. The economy experiences Dutch disease effects that expand a subsidized urban sector whose rent demands outstrip supply, resulting in a staple trap and a protracted growth collapse. The economy fails to diversify competitively and depends for growth on expanding rent rather than on competitive diversification that boosts productivity. The book uses the models to explain why many developing countries in Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa, and the Gulf followed a staple trap trajectory and draws on East Asia and South Asia for reform.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the development and structure of energy cash and futures markets, along with current regulatory issues. It begins by discussing common features of energy markets: energy markets are characterized by inelastic short- and medium-term demand curves in which demand decreases rather slowly as prices increase. It then discusses the energy markets with actively traded benchmark futures contracts as well as the development of over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives that can be used by end users in conjunction with futures contracts to refine their hedges. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the effects of derivatives market regulation, including hedging and speculation in energy markets, position limits, and the “futurization” of OTC derivatives that were formerly structured as swaps.

Abstract:
The emergence of a mass market for electric vehicles (EVs) offers considerable development opportunities for resource exporters, given their intensive raw material requirements, including for cobalt, nickel, lithium, copper, aluminium, and manganese. To exploit the benefits of new demand, empirical evidence on the ‘resource curse’ increasingly points to the benefits of strengthening institutions for effective policy management and to mitigate the risk of poorly directed, often excessively procyclical, investment. With many developing countries staking major claims for expanding domestic electric vehicle raw material industries, these issues appear highly pertinent, not least given their complexity, opacity, and volatility. This paper analyses both the outlook for electric vehicle demand and associated raw material usage, as well as the key drivers and sensitivities required to track future market transformation. It subsequently assesses key fiscal, regulatory, and institutional reform priorities and market barriers bearing on successful domestic resource mobilization in these resource chains.

Abstract:
“I love spinny chairs!” the eleven-year-old writer, poet, dancer, musician, and sometime goofball Mara Chasar shrieks gleefully as she spins round and round in a sober black office chair. “Spinny chair! Everyone loves the spinny chair!!” So begins a 2013 conversation that will change the course of the entire Speaking for Ourselves project. Mara has Asperger’s syndrome, but while she acknowledges the myriad challenges of living with this condition, she demands acceptance of it and of herself on her own terms. Autism awareness is not enough, she proclaims. Autism acceptance is what’s needed. “Who says autism is a bad thing?” Mara challenges us to consider. “Autism isn’t cholera; it isn’t some disease you can just cure. It’s just there . . . . Awareness means you know it’s there, but acceptance means you know it’s there and it’s not going to go away . . . . And there is no cure. There really isn’t. It’s just there, wound into your personality.”

Full text
Abstract:
The neurodiversity movement emphasizes the idea that autism (and some other neurologically influenced conditions) should not be seen as a medical problem or a defect, but as just an alternative form of neurological organization. A natural corollary of this position is that people with autism do not need to be “cured.” But many members of the general public find it difficult to understand this claim, even if they are receptive to the need for increased acceptance, recognition, and inclusion of people on the autism spectrum. Although this chapter’s tentative conclusions about the rejection of cures for autism are, overall, unsurprisingly moderate, it argues that it is justified for an individual to reject a cure for herself. However, it is much more questionable to demand an end to the search for cures altogether. Along the way the chapter usefully disentangles different lines of argument, and vitiate the force of some of them.

Abstract:
Care as a concept is central to any engagement with health, ill-health and the practices that aim to prevent, mitigate or cure, and the term itself is mobilised in a variety of different ways and at a variety of different scales. The vibrancy of the medical humanities as a relatively new field of inquiry has principally derived from the elaboration of experiential accounts of differential and dynamic conditions of health. Given this particular emphasis, attention to care and caring practices has predominantly concerned the nuanced and complex relations of care at an interpersonal and proximate scale. However, in contemporary landscapes of healthcare, given that the resources for caring for ourselves or for those whom we cherish in our immediate environment are often scarce and demand greatly outstrips the supply available within a national system, healthcare resources increasingly are sourced globally: from the migrant care worker2 through to the transplant tourist.

Abstract:
En esta obra se consideran los elementos básicos del Sistema de Cuentas Nacionales en el que se presentan los conceptos macroeconómicos e identidades contables económicas subyacentes a dichas cuentas. Para identificar el Producto Interno Bruto (PIB) nominal y real, el ingreso y el ahorro nacional de la economía mexicana, se analizan los tres tipos de enfoque: gasto, producción e ingreso. Además, se incluye una serie de ejercicios de los tres enfoques con las respuestas a los problemas, como guía de aprendizaje para estudiantes o personas interesadas en el tema. De igual forma, se examina el mercado de bienes y servicios que hace referencia al lugar donde los oferentes (empresas) y demandantes (familias o gobierno) compran y venden bienes o servicios. Asimismo, se aborda el comportamiento de los demandantes y ofertantes de dinero y bonos. El estudio de este último es clave para analizar la tasa de interés y los portafolios de acciones y bonos gubernamentales en el mercado bursátil. A los mercados de bienes y dinero se les identifica como el modelo IS-LM. En ambos, se parte de premisas básicas hasta lograr el equilibrio de estos mercados, además de obtener los multiplicadores de política monetaria y fiscal. El modelo keynesiano o IS-LM se centra en la demanda agregada de corto plazo, como determinante clave para la reactivación de las economías. Otro de los temas de gran importancia que se analiza es el modelo clásico de la macroeconomía cuyo eje central es la curva de Phillips y que relaciona: el mercado laboral y los niveles de inflación; la conformación y evolución del mercado laboral nacional y estatal; la evolución de la formación bruta de capital (formación de capital), así como el cálculo de la productividad del trabajo. Por ende, se examina la función de producción, la teoría cuantitativa del dinero y el mercado de fondos prestables para conformar el modelo clásico de corto plazo. El estudiar ambos modelos permite explicar, desde diferentes visiones teóricas, las políticas fiscales y monetarias que afectan los niveles de empleo y producción de la economía que hasta el día de hoy se mantienen en discusión en la mayoría de los países.
