Rad, informacija i znanje u novom kapitalizmu - Hipoteza o kognitivnom kapitalizmu,
s francuskog preveo Matko Meštrović, Ekonomski pregled br.57

Hrvatsko društvo sve više poprima karakteristike rascjepkanog društva sudeći po (tradicionalno) nejednakom razvoju regija, nejednakostima u dohotku, segmentiranošću tržišta radne snage i industrijske strukture, nejednakom pristupu informacijama, itd. Podijeljeno društvo pruža izvrsnu podlogu za oportunističko ponašanje pojedinaca te interesnih grupa s kratkoročnim horizontom tipa „uzmi i bježi“. Slobodni jahači (free riders) će iskorištavati povjerenje koje u društvu postoji ne bi li ostvarili vlastitu dobit, posebno putem traženja rente (rent seeking) odnosno netržišnim načinom djelovanja. Kada svatko „vuče na svoju stranu“ javlja se problem kolektivnog djelovanja koji će sprječavati društveno optimalan ishod.
Challenge Magazine: Interview with Robert Wade and José Antonio Ocampo

As we believe that this crisis cannot be solved without reforming the monetary and regulating the financial system, this page is to be updated with the latest developements in theese fields, so feel free to post any valuable resources below. Looking forward to G20 summit in London, we bring you reading that we find interesting.
In line with our "holistic approach", we present four documents calling for International Finacial System reform. First two were written for G20 Washington summit that took place in November 2008, whist the third is six years older, but is relevant as it reflects official G24 standpoints. Last document is something that we found accidentaly, a new formulation of an old Kenyes idea, introduction of world reserve currency - called Terra International Monetary Union.
We also recommend a book titled: The Future of Money - Creating New Wealth, Work and a Wiser World , by WAAS member Bernard Lietaer.
