'An entertaining guide to economics by a former adviser to Barack Obama that uses the lessons of the music business to explain what is happening in the rest of the world' The Times, Books of the Year 'A key voice on a vast array of economic issues for more than two decades' Barack Obama 'An absolutely brilliant mind. The definition of left and right brain balance' Quincy Jones 'The music business keeps re-inventing itself (from records, to tape, to CDs to streaming) and Alan Krueger covers all the bases. As one former LSE student once sang: 'its only rock and roll but I like it, like it, yes I do.' That applies to this book too' Richard Thaler, Nobel Prize Recipient and author of 'Nudge' 'Rockonomics is entertaining, educational and enlightening. Alan Krueger gives us a backstage tour of the music industry - and in doing so, he creates a brilliant metaphor for our entire economy. Highly recommended' Harlan Coben Alan Krueger, the former chairman of the president's Council of Economic Advisers, uses the music industry, from rock artists to music executives, from managers to promoters, as a way in to explain the principles of economics, and the forces shaping our economic lives. The music industry is often a leading indicator of today's economy; it is among the first to be disrupted by the latest wave of technology, and examining the ins and outs of how musicians create and sell new songs and plan concert tours offers valuable lessons for what is in store for businesses and employees in other industries that are struggling to adapt. Drawing on interviews with leading band members, music executives, managers, promoters, and using the latest data on revenues, royalties, tour dates, and merchandise, Rockonomics takes readers backstage to show how the music industry really works - who makes money, how the economics of the music industry has undergone a radical transformation during the last twenty years, and what this tells us about our wider economy today.

As one of the most enduring icons of economic life, money has been a common feature and central focus in complex societies from Antiquity to the present. It gained weight as a key feature of Mediterranean economies in the course of the first millennium BCE, mostly in the form of coinage. But money is more than just coin, and its significance is more pervasive than just to the strict sphere of “the economy”.In the ancient Mediterranean, money and its rise to prominence have been predominantly associated with the state. But can money only emerge under state authority? This volume questions the assumed relation between the spread of early forms of money and the state and draws attention to different ways in which money as an innovation could be anchored and socially embedded.

The automotive industry has been the driving force behind the growth of the German economy in the last two decades. In the years 1999–2017, German companies, thanks to their foreign expansion, became leading producers, and their share in the world market increased from 15.1% to 18.5%. Automotive companies and their subcontractors employ 1.8 million people, and the industry is one of the most profitable industrial sectors in Germany (80% of premium cars sold in the world come from factories of German manufacturers) and generate a significant part of the demand for products and services of other important sectors of the national economy, including electromechanical, chemical and logistic. This is especially true of the huge automotive cluster in southern Germany (Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg), where orders from car companies are the only source of income for many companies.
