"The economy" is a central element of everyday life for everyone: that much is clear, yet beyond that it often seems complicated. Market economy here, inflation there โ€“ the news delivers plenty of information, but many interested citizens lack an overview of the bigger picture. This book puts an end to that once and for all, offering you a systematic introduction to everything you need to know in order to effortlessly understand every economic news report in the future!

Dry and boring, far too complicated and only for stock market professionals and politicians anyway โ€“ that's how many people think about economics and finance, but the opposite is true. The major economic relationships are as fascinating as they are impressive, and yet understandable for everyone โ€“ and what's more, as an average citizen you can benefit enormously from this understanding in everyday life. Whether it's the structure of the German economic and financial system, fundamental theories, or highly topical issues of the global economy โ€“ with a systematic introduction, you'll find your way through the jungle of economics with ease. Is that really possible without prior knowledge? Yes! Because the easy-to-understand explanations in this book provide the perfect entry into the world of economics and gradually introduce interested beginners to everything there is to know about big money.

Foundation of prosperity: Discover the roles played by parliament, corporations, the central bank & more, what lobbying and consumer sovereignty mean, and what the gross domestic product actually represents.

Theories at a glance: Smith, Locke, and Keynes, socialism or market economy โ€“ get to know the most important models in the history of economics in a compact and accessible way.

Focus on Germany: Learn all about the fundamental principles of the social market economy, the connections of the industrial age, and familiarize yourself with the most important key terms.

Neoliberalism & finance: What is modern capitalism all about, how is it structured, and how does our financial system actually work?

Globalization & current debates: Discover what global economic interconnections mean in practice and gain an overview of topics such as universal basic income or interest-rate criticism.

This book provides you with an entertaining yet informative overview of all economic issues and ensures that you'll be able to join discussions on monetary policy at any time. Whether you want to better understand current news, deepen your political knowledge, or simply gain an overview of the economic situation in Germany and around the world โ€“ this book will quickly turn you into a financially and politically informed citizen.
