I'm looking for the best books, journals, etc. on current economics. I'm not really interested in Marxist publications, which it seems like this subforum really is full of. I'm looking for historical "case-study" type books.
On my list so far is:
The ABCs of Political Economy by Robert Hahnel
Accumulation and Power: An Economic History of the United States by Richard B. DuBoff
Bad Smaritans by Ha-Joon Chang
Business Organization and the Myth of the Market Economy by William Lazonick
Business as a System of Power by Robert A. Brady
Capitalism and Its Economics: A Critical History by Douglas F. Dowd
The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power by Joel Bakan
Corporate Control, Corporate Power by Edward S. Herman
The Economy of Death by Richard Barnet
The Great Deficit Scares: The Federal Budget, Trade, and Social Security by Robert Eisner
The Market Revolution: Jacksonian America 1815-1846 by Charles Sellers
New Ways Of Knowing: The Sciences, Society, and Reconstructive Knowledge by Marcus G. Raskin and Herbert J. Bernstein
Political Economy and Laissez-Faire: Economics and Ideology in the Ricardan Era by Rajani Kannepalli Kanth
Wall Street: How It Works and for Whom by Doug Henwood
The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith
Any other suggestions?
