Randomized Control Trials in the Field of Development
In October 2019, Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo, and Michael Kremer jointly won the 51st Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel "for their experimental approach to alleviating global poverty." But what is the exact scope of their experimental method, known as randomized control trials (RCTs)? Which sorts of questions are RCTs able to address and which do they fail to answer? The first of its kind, Randomized Control Trials in the Field of Development: A Critical Perspective provides answers to these questions, explaining how RCTs work, what they can achieve, why they sometimes fail, how they can be improved and why other methods are both useful and necessary. ...
The Routledge Handbook of Heterodox Economics
This second edition of The Routledge Handbook of Heterodox Economics presents a comprehensive overview of the latest work on economic theory and policy from a pluralistic heterodox perspective. The Handbook aims, firstly, to provide realistic and coherent theoretical frameworks to understand the capitalist economy. Secondly, it delineates future directions, as well as the current state, of heterodox economics, and then provides both ‘heat and light’ on controversial issues, drawing out the commonalities and differences among different heterodox economic approaches. The Handbook also envisions transformative economic and social policies for populations across society and explains why the ...
Beyond the Regulation Approach
This book presents a detailed and critical account of the regulation approach in institutional and evolutionary economics. Offering both a theoretical commentary and a range of empirical examples, it identifies the successes and failures of the regulation approach as an explanatory theory, and proposes new guidelines for its further development.

Bob Jessop and Ngai-Ling Sum provide detailed criticisms of the various schools of the regulation approach and their empirical application, and have developed new...
Gerak Kuasa
Pandemi Covid-19 telah membuat ruang yang sebelumnya terbuka menjadi tertutup demi keselamatan bersama. Ruang virtual dipenuhi informasi yang bergerak cepat membangun beragam wacana. Kebenaran informasi tidak lagi dipertanyakan, karena kebenaran adalah apa yang dipercayai. Orang berbondong ingin videonya viral, meski kadang berbahaya atau memerkosa hak orang lain. Buku ini merupakan usaha untuk menjelaskan teori-teori yang banyak dipakai dalam Kajian Budaya dan Media dan bagaimana teori-teori tersebut digunakan untuk melihat situasi sosial masa kini. Tersaji dalam buku ini teori Paul Gilroy tentang wacana diaspora, Paul Virilio tentang dromologi, Andy Bennett tentang neo-tribes, Henri Lefebvre tentang produksi ruang, hingga Slavoj Žižek tentang subjek dan bahasa. Juga tersaji teori-teori yang sudah banyak diperdebatkan sebelumnya namun terus menarik perhatian karena tajamnya perspektif mereka, seperti Stuart Hall tentang representasi, Homi Bhabha tentang pascakolonialnya, atau Julia Kristeva tentang bahasa sebagai bagian dari pembentukan subjek. Tak syak, buku ini penting dibaca oleh mereka yang tertarik pada Kajian Budaya dan Media.
The Evolutionary Analysis of Economic Policy
Traditional doctrines of economic policy have largely failed to address the fact that human economies are evolving, complex adaptive systems rather than equilibrating mechanisms. This volume represents a step towards a more evolutionary approach to economic policy.
