Abstract

This book critically reexamines the management function in 21st century workplaces. The book seeks to examine and explain the real-world behaviors of employees and acknowledge the human nature that binds us all together and how to appeal to these characteristics in order to help organizations prosper. It explores well-observed but rarely understood features of employee cognition and irrationality, challenging the dominant discourse and offering an alternative to gain greater competitive advantage in today's complex markets. It also provides an effective new framework on the best ways to develop relevant management skills as they pertain to hiring, performance management, change management, employee engagement, and goal setting. As the knowledge economy continues to grow, the social bonds within companies will prove to be a key differentiation to deliver on the next big idea. Developing productive decisions with staff in the talent-driven global economy increasingly requires the development of "intrinsic" meaning in work, a human-centered work-place culture, and human-focused working practices. This book tackles these topics in comprehensive and efficient detail.

Abstract

Das vorliegende Open-Access-Buch gibt einen Überblick über die Entwicklung der Neuroökonomie und ihre Fragestellungen. Die Neuroökonomie ist ein noch relativ junger Wissenschaftszweig, in dem kognitive Neurowissenschaftler und Ökonomen zusammenarbeiten. Dabei werden die neurologischen Prozesse bei der Verarbeitung ökonomischer Entscheidungen untersucht. Lena Dreher beleuchtet die Suche nach neuen Modellen für die Erforschung menschlicher Entscheidungsfindung und analysiert das Vorgehen der Neuroökonomie. Dabei werden auch die methodischen Probleme und vorgebrachten Kritiken untersucht. Die wissenschaftstheoretischen Erläuterungen der Mutterwissenschaften und wie ihre Fragestellungen und Arbeitsweisen in der Neuroökonomie zusammenkommen, machen die Methoden und Probleme der Neuroökonomie verständlich. Dies ist ein Open-Access-Buch.

Abstract

This is the first book to investigate the pessimistic and optimistic perceptions of the future and their economic consequences, based on sound mathematical foundations. The book focuses on fundamental uncertainty (Knightian uncertainty), where the probability distribution governing uncertainty is unknown, and it provides the reader with methods to formulate how pessimism and optimism act in an economy in a strict and unified way. After presenting decision-theoretic foundations for prudent behaviors under Knightian uncertainty, the book applies these ideas to economic models that include portfolio inertia, indeterminacy of equilibria in the Arrow-Debreu economy and in a stochastic overlapping-generations economy, dynamic asset-pricing models, search, real options, liquidity preferences, and learning. The book also includes characterizations of pessimistic (ε-contaminated) and optimistic (ε-exuberant) behaviors under Knightian uncertainty and the persistence of human pessimism (surprise aversion) and optimism (surprise affinity). These characterizations are shown to be useful in understanding behaviors that were observed during the global financial crisis and its aftermath. This book is highly recommended not only to researchers wanting to understand the mechanism of how pessimism and optimism affects economic phenomena, but also to policy-makers contemplating effective economic policies that delicately hinge upon the mindsets of people in the market.

Abstract

Moderne arbeitsteilige Gesellschaften besitzen eine komplexe Vernetzung von ökonomischen Regeln, politischer Macht und gesellschaftlichen Normen. Die wirtschaftliche Leistungsfähigkeit eines Landes hängt neben physischem Kapital und Humankapital in hohem Maße von sozialen Netzwerkstrukturen und kommunikativen Austauschprozessen ab. Die Sozialkapitaltheorie bietet hierzu Konzepte an, soziale Beziehungen als Determinante in die Wirtschaftstheorie einzubinden. Die Untersuchung berücksichtigt neben der sozialen Vernetzung ebenso das Aufkommen des netzwerkökonomischen Paradigmas. Mit den Themenfeldern Sozialkapital und Netzwerkökonomik verbindet der Autor zwei junge und hochaktuelle wirtschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Bereiche und deren ökonomische Auswirkungen. Daraus lassen sich konkrete politische Handlungsanweisungen ableiten.

Abstract

In Europe, the last decade has been shaped by euro crisis, migration crisis and corona crisis. Studies have analyzed how citizens react to crises in their voting behavior. This political economy analysis examines the research gap to what extent repeated crisis exposure within a short period of time can deepen existing Euroskepticism. It is defined as an index consisting of the individual identification as European, the view on the EU and on own country’s benefits of EU membership. Survey results of the Eurobarometer of all 28 EU member states, including the United Kingdom, in combination with macroeconomic data are analyzed using modern econometric methods. Bootstrapping and entropy balancing ensure conservative estimates. We find that a single crisis exposure increases existing Euroskepticism, but that the temporal distance between the crises matters. The impact of a crisis on the current situation marginalizes with its temporal distance. Furthermore, a hysteresis-like effect occurs: After the crisis ends, the Euroskepticism level does not go back to its pre-crisis level. Especially today, when (Western) democracy is under attack from many sides, this work extends the understanding of the influence of crises on political behavior aiming to derive recommendations how to act in the future. About the author Lukas Möller is a research assistant at the Chair of Political Economy at the university of Münster. His research focuses on Public Choice Theory and European Integration.
