Business Books, EconomicsTHE DEFICIT MYTH: MODERN MONETARY THEORY AND HOW TO BUILD A BETTER ECONOMY
Stephanie Kelton shows how misguided this question really is by using the bold ideas of modern monetary theory (MMT), the radically different approach to using our resources to maximize our potential as a society. Everything that we’ve been led to believe about deficits and the role of money and government spending in the economy is wrong, especially the fear that deficits will endanger our long-term prosperity.
Rather than asking the self-defeating question of how to pay for the crucial improvements our society needs, Kelton guides us to ask: which deficits actually matter?
What is the best way to balance the risk of inflation against the benefits of a society that is more broadly prosperous, safer, cleaner, and secure?

PoliticsOIL WARS IN THE NIGER DELTA 1849-2009
Oil Wars in the Niger Delta: 1849 -2009 focuses on the perennial Niger Delta Question over justice, equity, equality, development, quality of life, peace and more, in a common fatherland or motherland. It did not find quick and widely agreed answers in what eventually became the Nigerian polity of ethnic pluralism and cultural diversity. But in this competently researched, analytical and authoritative study, it has received the attention it deserved since the era of Consular Jurisdiction in 1849. The searchlight has focused, appropriately and adequately, on the germane issues of micro-nationalism and macro-nationalism.
