Featured authors Steven D. Gjerstad, Chapman University, California Vernon L. Smith, Chapman University, California Authors of Rethinking Housing Bubbles Rethinking Housing Bu bbles
Rethinking Housing Bubbles demonstrates that housing and mortgage cycles have had a stronger impact on U.S. economic cycles than any other sector for at least 90 years. We provide evidence that monetary policy works primarily through the mortgage and housing market and that when it fails, that results from dislocations in the housing and mortgage markets.

Causal Inference in Statistics, Social, and Biomedical Sciences An Introduction Guido W. Imbens Stanford University, California
and Donald B. Rubin Harvard University, Massachusetts
In this groundbreaking text, two worldrenowned experts present statistical methods for studying causal effects: how can we learn about the expected effect of an intervention or a change in environment? The authors discuss how we can assess such effects in simple randomized experiments, where the researcher controls the treatments, and in observational studies, where the subjects may themselves affect which treatment they receive. Advance praise: ‘This book offers a definitive treatment of causality using the potential outcomes approach. Both theoreticians and applied researchers will find this an indispensable volume for guidance and reference.’ Hal Varian, University of California, Berkeley 2015 253 x 177 mm 592pp 18 b/w illus. 97 tables 978-0-521-88588-1 Hardback £40.00 / US$60.00 Publication April 2015 For all formats available, see

Granularity Theory with Applications to Finance and Insurance Patrick Gagliardini Universita della Svizzera Italiana, Switzerland
and Christian Gouriéroux University of Toronto
This book provides the first comprehensive overview of the granularity theory applied to risk analysis in finance and insurance. The granularity principle leads to analytical formulas for risk analysis that are simple to implement and accurate even when the portfolio size is large. ‘Credible portfolio risk assessment requires financial-econometric methods that respect the limitations of finite samples (finite numbers of assets) in real portfolios. Gagliardini and Gouriéroux propose and explore asymptotic expansions (granularity adjustments) that do just that. As expected, their book displays a wonderful clarity of thought and will be highly valued in academic, policy and practitioner circles.’ Francis X. Diebold, Paul F. and Warren S. Miller Professor of Economics, University of Pennsylvania
‘A competent empirical application of Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) requires a clear understanding of both the production economics and the econometric theory behind the specified model side by side with adequate programming skills to write the necessary software

Expert Adjustments of Model Forecasts Theory, Practice and Strategies for Improvement Philip Hans Franses Erasmus School of Economics
Written for academics and practitioners with an interest in forecasting methodology, this book tests the notion that many forecasters feel they can improve the accuracy of forecasts based on their intuition. Current research is collated to examine ‘expert adjustment’ from an econometric perspective
and guidelines for improvement are suggested. ‘All economic and business forecasting involves judgment to some extent, but most books focus on the application of statistical methods. At last we have a book that directly addresses the role of judgment in forecasting and applies a set of rigorous methods to assess its potential strengths and limitations.’ Paul Goodwin, Emeritus Professor, University of Bath 2014 228 x 152 mm 143pp 9 b/w illus. 18 tables 978-1-107-08159-8 Hardback £45.00 / US$70.00 978-1-107-44161-3 Paperback £17.99 / US$27.99 For all formats available, see

Modeling Count Data Joseph M. Hilbe Arizona State University
Written for researchers with little or no background in advanced statistics, this book provides guidelines and fully worked examples of how to select, construct, interpret and evaluate the full range of count models. Stata, R, and SAS code enable readers in a variety of disciplines to adapt models for their own purposes. ‘This is a first-rate introductory book for modeling count data, a key challenge in applied statistics. Hilbe’s experience and affability shine in the text. His careful emphasis on establishing the defensibility of models, for example, in the face of overdispersion, will greatly benefit the beginning statistician. His clear informal explanations of important and complicated statistical principles are invaluable.’ Andrew Robinson, University of Melbourne

Applied Nonparametric Econometrics Daniel J. Henderson University of Alabama
and Christopher F. Parmeter University of Miami
The majority of empirical research in economics ignores the potential benefits of nonparametric methods, while the majority of advances in nonparametric theory ignore the problems faced in applied econometrics. This book helps bridge this gap between applied economists and theoretical nonparametric econometricians, discussing basic to advanced nonparametric methods with applications. Advance praise: ‘A clear and thorough treatment of nonparametric and semiparametric econometrics. The text will be valuable to empirical researchers, who can expand their methodological toolkits without resorting to difficult journal articles. Even advanced topics, such as nonparametric instrumental variables and nonparametric models with panel data, are treated at an accessible level.’ Jeffrey M. Wooldridge, Michigan State University

Innovative entrepreneurs are the prime movers of the economy. They establish the companies that move innovations to the market place and drive economic growth. This book introduces economic analysis that helps to explain the activities of innovative entrepreneurs. ‘It is no coincidence that Dan Spulber has written this book on the economic contributions of the innovative entrepreneur’s initiative and creativity, as it has been Spulber’s own initiative and creativity that has been largely responsible for developing an economic theory of the innovative entrepreneur.’ Robert J.

This book will appeal to all those interested in the reform of markets. ‘Eric Brousseau and Jean-Michel Glachant have assembled a fascinating set of contributions that discuss the institutional arrangements that contribute to the ‘manufacturing’ of markets for goods and services … The chapters in this book provide important insights about how these institutional choices have been made in many different contexts, drawing on lessons from economics, political science, organizational behavior, psychology and law.

Productivity Accounting The Economics of Business Performance Emili Grifell-Tatjé Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona
and C. A. Knox Lovell University of Queensland
Productivity Accounting offers an indepth analysis of business productivity performance, providing an analytical framework within which to account for variation in business performance and the causes and consequences of this variation. Combining analytical rigor with empirical illustrations, the analysis draws on wide-ranging literatures, both historical and current, from business and economics. ‘The central theme of this book is decomposition. With chirurgical precision the authors dissect change of profitability, profit, cost, and return-on-assets, looking for traces of productivity change. They are thereby interested not only in the drivers of productivity change, but also in the distribution of its fruits. As a result the book turns out to be a tasty blend of economics, statistics, and business performance measurement. In addition, quite a number of lesser known treasures from history were unearthed. This is a rich book, both for theorists and practitioners.’ Bert M. Balk, Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University

Written for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students studying international business, European studies and political economy, this is the first textbook to provide a complete overview of Europe’s business environment, uncovering both the historical, political and cultural contexts of European business and the diverse nature of Europe’s economy and government policies. ‘This is a clear, comprehensive and incisive look at Europe today and its relevance to global business in the twenty-first century. The author is both eloquent in explaining even the more difficult concepts and judicious in forming conclusions about where Europe stands today in the globalized world. He lucidly explains the leading scholarship in the field and, as importantly, pinpoints its relevance to on-the-ground business practice within the European context. This book will be of great interest to academics, researchers and global business practitioners. It should become the standard textbook for students of modern European business.’ Sanford L.

Japan’s Economic Planning and Mobilization in Wartime, 1930s–1940s The Competence of the State Yoshiro Miwa University of Tokyo
Yoshiro Miwa analyzes the extent to which the Japanese government prepared itself for the Second World War and the war with China that preceded it. He finds the government – despite its reputation for industrial planning – was ill-prepared and draws sophisticated lessons about the ability of governments to plan their economies. ‘A leading skeptic of the Chalmers Johnson view of Japanese bureaucratic competence confronts the reality of a country mired – after remarkable successes – in an ill-planned, muddled, and unwinnable war. For Professor Miwa’s admirers (of which I count myself one), this powerful broadside confirms his sure combination of historical research with critical economic analysis. For doubters, this exposé of wartime armaments production offers renewed challenges.’ Leslie Hannah, London School of Economics and Political Science 2015 228 x 152 mm 400pp 3 b/w illus. 9 tables 978-1-107-02650-6 Hardback £65.00 / US$99.00 Publication January 2015 For all formats available, see

The Decade of the Multilatinas Javier Santiso ESADE Business School
Latin American multinationals (multilatinas) have been central in the rise of emerging markets in the last few decades. This book analyses the trends, the countries and the firms involved, and explores the implications for the US, China, Spain and the rest of Europe. ‘The continued growth in global trade and investment is rapidly forcing us to rethink the way we look at the role of the emerging economies. Early in this long process, the focus was on local production in these economies, based on cheap labor and abundant resources. But much more is going on. This timely book focuses on the impressive international expansion of Latin corporations, an important topic that thus far has not received much attention. I highly recommend it to all audiences.’ Arminio Fraga, Founder of Gávea Investimentos (acquired by JP Morgan) and former Governor of the Central Bank of Brazil 2014 229 x 152 mm 302pp 54 b/w illus. 34 tables 978-1-107-42497-5 Paperback £23.99 / US$38.99 Also available 978-1-107-03443-3 Hardback £64.99 / US$104.99 For all formats available, see

to develop in China in the coming decades. ‘Lu Zhang’s highly readable and insightful book offers a fascinating perspective on the recent wave of strikes in China’s vast and growing automobile industry, drawing on extensive fieldwork in seven different auto factories. Highlighting the militancy of young, highly educated temporary auto assembly workers, who live in factory dormitories and often use social media as an organizing tool, Zhang shows how they leverage the ideological legacy of state socialism to challenge the logic of profit maximization in the world’s most dynamic market economy.

Out of Poverty Sweatshops in the Global Economy Benjamin Powell The Free Market Institute, Texas Tech University
This book explores how sweatshops provide the best available opportunity to workers and how they play an important role in the process of development that eventually leads to better wages and working conditions. This book addresses a crucially important topic for those who desire to improve the welfare of impoverished people in the third world. ‘This eloquent book makes the compassionate case for sweatshops in poor countries as what poor workers voluntarily select as employers because they are better than the alternatives. It is uncommonly clear in this book that the economists’ case for sweatshops is based on what’s best for the workers, not what’s best for efficiency or profits or First World consumers.’ William Easterly, Co-Director, Development Research Institute, New York University, and author of The White Man’s Burden and The Elusive Quest for Growth Cambridge Studies in Economics, Choice, and Society

Natural resource and environmental economics Nuclear power is a gamble and that’s why we have to think twice. We need books like this one that provide a balanced assessment of our options, which will allow people from any background to engage with the arguments and make up their own minds about this important issue.’
accessible description of the methods for calculating externalities, the results and their policy implications. The authors clearly address the relevant uncertainties and ethical underpinnings, bringing a balanced approach to complex issues that are so often distorted by vested interests.’
Arguing for integrated models and analysis that can enable realistic social policy experiments, the volume drives home the compelling need for forward looking decision making in the interest of conservation of humanity’s ‘uncommon heritage’ for future generations.’

Drawing on a range of interdisciplinary perspectives, this volume provides an invaluable framework for translating simple concepts into complex ecosystem-related decision-making. It is specifically designed to guide students and policy-makers through key methodological approaches, illustrating their applications at various scales by drawing on case studies from around the world. ‘The challenge of incorporating ecosystem services into decisionmaking is inherently interdisciplinary, which in turns requires that everyone involved or interested in addressing this challenge needs to understand the principles of each discipline concerned. This excellent collection of essays had been carefully crafted to introduce the reader to all aspects of an ecosystem services approach to decision making; from natural science, through the social sciences and on to governance. Each chapter is highly accessible while the whole builds to provide a coherent introduction to

The Cambridge Economic History of Australia Edited by Simon Ville University of Wollongong, New South Wales
and Glenn Withers Australian National University, Canberra
Australia’s economic history is the story of the transformation of an indigenous economy and a small convict settlement into a nation of nearly 23 million people with advanced economic, social and political structures. It is a history of vast lands with rich, exploitable resources, of adversity in war, and of prosperity and nation building. It is also a history of human behaviour and the institutions created to harness and govern human endeavour. This account provides a systematic and comprehensive treatment of the nation’s economic foundations, growth, resilience and future, in an engaging, contemporary narrative. It examines key themes such as the centrality of land and its usage, the role of migrant human capital, the tension between development and the environment, and Australia’s interaction with the international economy.

This is the first complete economic and social history of Brazil in the modern period in any language.

And yet, to foreigners it remains a broadly exotic country … Part of the reason why [it] remains a known unknown to the world at large is the lack of an authoritative account of the historical trends that have defined modern Brazilian society and economy. With the publication of [this book] this will no longer be the case. Eminent economic historians [Luna and Klein] provide a detailed analysis of the evolution of Brazilian society and economy from the end of the empire to the present day.

Public economics and public policy Freedom and the Pursuit of Happiness An Economic and Political Perspective Sebastiano Bavetta Università degli Studi, Palermo, Italy
Pietro Navarra Università degli Studi di Messina, Italy
and Dario Maimone Università degli Studi di Messina, Italy
Different types of freedom have different impacts on happiness, as socioeconomic circumstances change. As the economy grows, happiness depends more on non-intrusive institutions that do not constrain people’s political and economic possibility of self-expression. The implications for policy cannot be underestimated: maximizing freedom is a major goal in the pursuit of happiness. ‘The authors take the concept of freedom beyond anything that has been done before. They start with an appealing philosophical concept, translate it into a neat formal definition, give it a convincing operationalization, and put the whole thing to work in an intriguing empirical analysis of autonomy, freedom, and the welfare state. Bavetta, Navarra, and Maimone have given economics its freedom, and freedom its economics. This compelling book will fascinate readers, whether they are theoretically, empirically, practically, or philosophically inclined.’ Cristina Bicchieri, S. J.

This book analyzes how increases in international trade, finance, and production have altered voter decisions, political party positions, and the types of public issues that parties focus on in postindustrial democracies. ‘Timothy Hellwig draws several new and fascinating implications from his pioneering argument that globalization reduces the propensity of an electorate to reward and punish incumbent politicians for the state of the domestic economy. Here, we have a convincing explanation for the reorientation of domestic political competition around noneconomic issues in Western democracies: globalization crowds out contestation over economic policy. This is the rare work that will attract interest from both voting behavior scholars and political economists.’ Andy Baker, University of Colorado, Boulder
Coercion and Social Welfare in Public Finance Economic and Political Perspectives Edited by Jorge Martinez-Vazquez Georgia State University

The essays in this book focus on coercion in public finance, an essential part of social life. Building on a tradition which views problems of collective choice as integral to an understanding of the public economy, these essays use contemporary frameworks to study relationships between fiscal coercion and economic welfare. ‘Taking seriously the role of coercion in public finance represents a significant advance in economic thinking about taxation, welfare,

Too Weak to Govern Majority Party Power and Appropriations in the U.S. Senate Peter Hanson University of Denver
Too Weak to Govern demonstrates the majority party’s important and underestimated ability to control the unruly Senate floor. The majority party protects its reputation and eases the passage of the budget when it creates massive ‘omnibus’ spending bills, but its strategy has contributed to the breakdown of the federal budget process. ‘Peter Hanson’s experience in the Senate gives him substantial insight into the chamber. He explains the challenge of leading the Senate and how contention on the floor is linked to the breakdown of the appropriations process. This is a valuable book for policy makers, students and anyone interested in understanding today’s Senate.’ Tom Daschle, former Senator and Senate Majority Leader 2015 228 x 152 mm 206pp 46 b/w illus. 25 tables 978-1-107-06315-0 Hardback £50.00 / US$80.00 978-1-107-63587-6 Paperback £18.99 / US$29.99 Publication January 2015 For all formats available, see

Diasporas and Foreign Direct Investment in China and India Min Ye Boston University
This book offers a comparative and historical analysis of foreign direct investment (FDI) liberalization in China and India and explains how the return of these countries’ diasporas affects such liberalization. It examines diasporic investment from Western FDIs and finds that diasporas, rather than Western nations, have fueled globalization in the two Asian giants. ‘Economic studies of foreign direct investment have largely ignored the social context in which such investment takes place. In this powerful corrective, Min Ye traces the effects of diasporas not only on capital flows but on the wider policy context. She reinterprets the economic opening of the two developing giants – China and India – and their wider growth experience more generally.’ Stephan Haggard, Krause Professor, Graduate School of International Relations and Pacific Studies, University of California San Diego 2014 228 x 152 mm 260pp 16 b/w illus. 3 maps 25 tables 978-1-107-05419-6 Hardback £60.00 / US$95.00 For all formats available, see

Economic Politics in the United States The Costs and Risks of Democracy Second edition William R. Keech Duke University, North Carolina
The book shows how and why democracy has worked well or badly as measured by US macroeconomic performance. ‘In this important new edition, Bill Keech, one of the first political scientists to apply macroeconomic tools and research to political questions, revisits his prior inquiry on the ‘health’ of economic politics. But, in doing so, he also extends his discussion to incorporate many new findings in macro political economy. These additional results enhance our understanding of how and how well representative government performs. What is more, this book reflects the author’s qualities: clear in exposition and sober in outlook. Very few social scientists have his scholarly breadth to engage the varied literatures from different disciplines – and even fewer could have written a contribution like this.’ Jim Granato, University of Houston 2013 228 x 152 mm 312pp 8 b/w illus. 8 tables 978-1-107-00414-6 Hardback £60.00 / US$95.00 978-0-521-17867-9 Paperback £22.99 / US$32.99 For all formats available, see

Leon Walras: Elements of Theoretical Economics Or, The Theory of Social Wealth Léon Walras Edited and translated by Donald A. Walker Indiana University of Pennsylvania
and Jan van Daal Triangle, University of Lyons-2
The third edition (1896) of Léon Walras’ Elements of Theoretical Economics has been given a new translation for three reasons. First, this edition is Walras’ best theoretical work. Second, the two subsequent editions contain new elements that spoil his previous work. Third, William Jaffé’s translation (1954) of the last edition is now outdated in view of recent research on Walras’ ideas. ‘Walras’s theory of general economic equilibrium has inspired many great economists, from Pareto, Wicksell, Fisher, and Schumpeter to Hicks, Samuelson, Arrow, Hahn, and Debreu. It is therefore highly welcome that the third and finest edition of Walras’s opus magnum, Eléments, for the first time is made available in an excellent English edition thanks to Donald Walker and Jan van Daal, two leading Walrasian scholars.’ Harald Hagemann, University of Hohenheim 2014 228 x 152 mm 588pp 47 b/w illus. 4 tables 978-1-107-06413-3 Hardback £80.00 / US$125.00 For all formats available, see

Lawrence Boland provides an overview of the practices of and the problems faced by model builders to explain the nature of models, the modeling process, and the testing of models. In a reflective manner, he raises serious questions about the assumptions and judgments
that model builders make in constructing models. ‘The common practices of macroeconomists, like those of other tribes, look different when seen from inside or outside. Outsiders may see or take seriously things that insiders overlook because they seem part of the landscape. Professor Boland is an attentive and reflective outsider. I recommend especially his thoughts on the importance of defensibly realistic assumptions in macro model building.

This book examines the use, principally in economics, of the concept of the invisible hand, centering on Adam Smith. It interprets the concept as ideology, knowledge, and a linguistic phenomenon. It shows how the principal Chicago School interpretation misperceives and distorts what Smith believed on the economic role of government. ‘An unbelievably comprehensive account of what economists have meant by the invisible hand. This book should disabuse anyone of the notion that the concept is either simple or unproblematic.’ Roger E. Backhouse, University of Birmingham

The Merchant Republics Amsterdam, Antwerp, and Hamburg, 1648–1790 Mary Lindemann University of Miami
The Merchant Republics analyzes the ways in which three major economic powerhouses – Amsterdam, Antwerp and Hamburg – developed dual identities as ‘communities of commerce’ and republics over the course of the long eighteenth century (c.1648–1790). ‘Comparative history of this kind is a very difficult genre to produce, but Mary Lindemann has succeeded to a remarkable extent. This book is far more than three parallel studies within one book. By acknowledging the real contrasts between Amsterdam, Antwerp, and Hamburg, Lindemann is able to make some effective and revealing comparisons, located in the context of each city’s earlier evolution, and to highlight the real similarities. Lindemann is one of the most distinctive voices currently writing about the ‘long eighteenth century’, and her latest book will add to her already high reputation.’ Hamish Scott, University of Glasgow 2014 228 x 152 mm 371pp 9 b/w illus. 978-1-107-07443-9 Hardback £65.00 / US$99.00 For all formats available, see

The Economic History of Latin America since Independence Third edition Victor Bulmer-Thomas University College London
This study covers the economic history of Latin America from independence in the 1820s to the present, stressing the differences between Latin American countries while recognizing the external influences to which the whole region has been subject. This revised third edition contains a wealth of new material that draws on the new research in this area. ‘Bulmer-Thomas’s third update of The Economic History of Latin America since Independence is the essential, even canonical, guide for a region of the world long dominated by commodities and their export. Scrupulously detailed and balanced, the book outlines Latin America’s largely disappointing growth record without discounting the region’s economic variety, historical achievements, and social possibilities. Those hoping to re-energize the study of Latin American economic history can start reading here.’ Paul Gootenberg, SUNY Distinguished Professor of History and Sociology, Stony Brook University, and author of Andean Cocaine: The Making of a Global Drug (2009) Cambridge Latin American Studies, 98

Cultivating Success in the South Farm Households in the Postbellum Era Louis A. Ferleger Boston University
and John D. Metz Library of Virginia
This book explores changes in rural households of the Georgia Piedmont through the material culture of farmers as they transitioned from self-sufficiency to market dependence. The period between 1880 and 1910 was a time of dynamic change when Southern farmers struggled to reinvent their lives and livelihoods. ‘Ferleger and Metz use an underutilized resource – probate records – to explain household-level production and consumption of yeoman farmers in three Georgia upcountry counties. They supplement probate data with census and Georgia

tax data and tell a compelling story about how rural yeoman farmers faced economic and social challenges during the postbellum period. In doing so, they make a worthy contribution to the literature on subsistence farming and postbellum agriculture, introducing historians to a set of underutilized resources that offer details about household behaviors, production, and consumption.’ Peggy Hargis, Georgia Southern University Cambridge Studies on the American South

Beyond Smoke and Mirrors Climate Change and Energy in the 21st Century Second edition Burton Richter Stanford University, California
Global climate change is one of the most important issues humanity faces today. This updated, second edition assesses the sensible, senseless and biased proposals for averting the potentially disastrous consequences of global warming, allowing the reader to draw their own conclusions on switching to more sustainable energy provision. Burton Richter is a Nobel Prize-winning scientist who has served on many US and international review committees on climate change and energy issues. He provides a concise overview of our knowledge and uncertainties within climate change science, discusses current energy demand and supply patterns, and the energy options available to cut emissions of greenhouse gases.

It opens with a fine summary of the science linking carbon to climate … provides a concise primer on the economics of long-term climate policy, and concludes with a short, sensible, and well-argued set of opinions and policy recommendations.’ Physics Today Canto Classics

Sustainability in the Global City Myth and Practice Edited by Cindy Isenhour University of Maine, Orono
Gary McDonogh Bryn Mawr College, Pennsylvania
and Melissa Checker Queens College, City University of New York
Urban sustainability has become integral to urban planning and policy making globally, but we know little about its practical consequences for everyday life, cultural change, and social justice. The contributors to this unique volume look beyond sustainability’s promises and propaganda to explore its diverse human meanings and practices. ‘Urban policy makers focused on sustainability often ignore the growth of eco-apartheid in their own cities. The contributors to this invaluable book confront the issue head-on, through exhaustive ethnographic research, and show us how and why environmental justice is the key to a green urban future.’ Andrew Ross, author of Bird on Fire: Lessons from the World’s Least Sustainable City New Directions in Sustainability and Society
