Corruption, for most of us, almost immediately evokes images of the third world especially countries like Nigeria, Mexico and India. Whilst we may concede that corruption exists in developed countries it is generally thought to be under control. Despite such widely-held views there is very little hard evidence on the actual extent of corruption in any country. This book strives to look behind impressions in an attempt to determine what factors underlie the high profile of corruption in UDCs. For an adequate understanding of the phenomenon the global character of corruption is emphasized as well as the necessity of locating within a broader process of economic and social change

This book deals with the limitations of economic and financial accounting as an appropriate instrument to reflect the real value created or destroyed by an organization. The authors present a sustainable social accounting approach that considers both the social and economic value - Blended Value - generated by an organization for all of its stakeholders.

This book is part of a larger project aimed at changing the course the American economy and employment relations system have been on for the past 30 years. From 1980s onward, the economy has been reasonably productive and worked reasonably well for investors and high-level executives, but not for ordinary working Americans and their families. At the same time, many of our institutions that support work atrophied and lost their ability to build an inclusive economy in which the fruits of prosperity are shared widely and equitably.

Since the last global crisis, the critical debate on economy and the teaching of heterodox economy has resurfaced. To review the magnitude and pedagogical consequences for critical education in economics and finance is the objective of this paper, which also proposes a didactic strategy based on an experience developed at the University of Extremadura (Spain) within the framework of the Didactic Innovation Group named &ldquo ; Ethics of University Teaching&rdquo ; . For this purpose, the educational implications of teaching and learning the conventional economy that derive from behavioral and cognitive psychology and discourses on entrepreneurship and corporate social responsibility are reviewed. It is concluded that the bias in the education of heterodox economy supposes a deterioration of the fundamental educational objectives, tending towards an indoctrination in the neoliberal ideology (patriarcapitalist) and to a serious loss of democratic values. For all the above, a more pluralist pedagogy at the epistemological and methodological levels&mdash ; from critical psychology to critical economics or critical management studies&mdash ; would help to favor a more emancipatory educational process, committed to social justice.

Der Beitrag kritisiert die heute herrschende Marktphilosophie der "Merkokratie" als einen Glauben, daß das, was durch den Markt geregelt wird, als Ordnung legitim sei, und zwar eben dadurch, weil es durch den Markt geregelt ist. So werden Markt, Moral und Ordnung in einem engen, unauflöslichen Zusammenhang gesehen, gesteuert durch das "innewohnende Gesetz" der "invisible hand". Der Autor gibt mit einer Interpretation von Adam Smith und der Analyse des ersten und zweiten Arbeitsmarktes folgendes zu bedenken: Marktwirtschaft ist Tauschwirtschaft, das heißt Kooperation, die zwar durch die Egoismen der Beteiligten motiviert wird, allerdings nicht ohne ein Hineinversetzen in andere zu denken ist. Empathie, Sympathie, Solidarität und Egoismus sind für den Vater der Marktphilosophie keine Gegensätze, sondern sie bedingen sich. Tausch funktioniert am besten, wenn es gelingt, die Wünsche des anderen zu verstehen und - im eigenen Interesse - angemessen zu berücksichtigen. (pre)
