Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capital Redefined presents a unique perspective on the nature of “capital,” departing from the prevailing reductionist accounts. Hosseini and Gills offer an expanded perspective on Marxian value theory by addressing its main limitations and building their own integrative value theory. They argue that the current understanding of “value” must be re-examined and liberated from its subservient ties to capital while acknowledging the ways in which capital appropriates value. This is achieved by differentiating between “fetish value” created by capital and “true value” generated through various commons-based forms of coexistence. The authors propose a defetishization of value by rejecting the commonly accepted idea of its objectivity. They introduce their “commonist value theory,” which redefines capital as both the product and process of perverting the fundamental commoning causes of true value into sources of fetish value. Capital is theorized through a “modular” framework, where multiple intersecting processes constitute a comprehensive power structure, a “value regime,” representing an unprecedented degree of the domination of capital over life. Their theory reconciles two apparently incompatible views on the notion of value. One view encompasses all inputs involved in capitalist value production and conflates intrinsic and commodity values. The other warns against this conflation as it treats capital as an entity tightly associated only with commodity production and wage labor. The authors believe that establishing alternative forms of value creation based on normative principles of living in commons is crucial as an analytical base for criticizing existing power structures and economic systems. The book offers a theoretical foundation for transforming our life worlds toward “post-capitalist” futures. It appeals to scholars and students in various fields, such as political economy, capitalism, and post-capitalist studies, economic and political sociology, globalization, development studies, social ecology, and ecological philosophy.

It is influenced by global capital flows and trade, socioeconomic conditions, and the political environment. #2 Venture capital is the provision of capital, know-how, and hands-on involvement to entrepreneurial firms by institutional investors. It is used to accelerate entrepreneurial development and exploit opportunities in the marketplace. #3 There are several forms of venture capital that are offered to firms at different stages of development. Second stage financing is available to firms that are experiencing robust revenue growth and may even be profitable. Bridge financing is offered to entrepreneurial firms that intend to go public. #4 Venture capital is the act of investing into private firms, and it is part of a broader category of closed-end private capital. There are five different and distinct categories of private capital: private equity, private debt, real estate, infrastructure, and natural resource.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a historical background to the formation of the Indian capitalist class from before British colonial rule in India. It analyses the nature of that class, the ways in which it changed under colonial rule, and the state of independent India; it also sets some of the peculiarities of capitalist organization in India and the ideology of big capital in their historical context. The evolution of the working class in India is analysed in its dialectical interaction with global capital and Indian capitalism. The author challenges the view that the tensions within working class movements caused by caste, communal divisions or gender discrimination are to be attributed to primordial loyalties, emphasizing instead the influence of the deliberate strategies adopted by capitalists and of changes in the structure of global and Indian capitalism. Finally, the book investigates the impact of capital-friendly liberalization on the fortunes of the working class in the Third World.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you want to have more peace of mind—no matter how world events are impacting the market—Investing Redefined has the advice you need to hear. Were you one of millions of Americans in 2008 wondering what you could have done differently to manage risks to your investments? Since then, have you changed your investment strategy or are you still doing the same things you did before the meltdown? Are you prepared for the next major crisis? Randy Swan believes it’s not a question of if, but rather when, the market will suffer another dramatic fall—and approaching the market in the same old way is the path to financial suicide. You need to redefine your investing strategy to seek protection for your money. Swan breaks down the factors that influence market events— from world governments and global debt to technological wild cards—and explains why most individuals, including investment professionals, are not adequately prepared for the likely consequences of the next market crisis. This book offers investors a new way to play the game. Randy Swan shares the strategy that his company, Swan Global Investments, has developed to remain always invested and always hedged against the worst risks, while making the most of the opportunities a down market can offer. His advice is to learn and be prepared: He shows you how in this valuable book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A renowned economist argues for the importance of property rights in "the most intelligent book yet written about the current challenge of establishing capitalism in the developing world" (Economist) "The hour of capitalism's greatest triumph," writes Hernando de Soto, "is, in the eyes of four-fifths of humanity, its hour of crisis." In The Mystery of Capital, the world-famous Peruvian economist takes up one of the most pressing questions the world faces today: Why do some countries succeed at capitalism while others fail? In strong opposition to the popular view that success is determined by cultural differences, de Soto finds that it actually has everything to do with the legal structure of property and property rights. Every developed nation in the world at one time went through the transformation from predominantly extralegal property arrangements, such as squatting on large estates, to a formal, unified legal property system. In the West we've forgotten that creating this system is what allowed people everywhere to leverage property into wealth. This persuasive book revolutionized our understanding of capital and points the way to a major transformation of the world economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the author explains that managers must build human capital and engender employee engagement by managing them almost not at all, by attending instead to the factors and circumstances that make them successful. In other words, managers must play their role from offstage and out of the limelight. Based on a survey of over 16,000 employees, the author presents Towers-Watson' management performance model: Executing tasks, Building relationships and performance capability, and Energizing change. Additionally, managers must create an atmosphere of authenticity and trust.
