Time Series with Long Memory or The Diversity of Modern Capitalism

Time Series with Long Memory (Advanced Texts in Econometrics Series)

Author: Peter M Robinson

Time Series with Long Memory comprises a collection on time series analysis. Long memory time series are characterized by a strong dependence between distant events. Various methods and their theoretical properties are discussed with empirical applications. The methods constitute a very flexible approach to analyzing time series data arising in economics, finance and other fields.

The Diversity of Modern Capitalism

Author: Bruno Amabl

This book proposes a comparative analysis of modern capitalism. It identifies five different types of modern economies: the market-based economies, Asian capitalism, the Continental European model, the social democratic economies, and the Mediterranean model. It presents their main institutional characteristics and relates the different models their political and economic dynamics. The book also assesses the likely future of the Continental European model, making a significant contribution to the 'varieties of capitalism' debate.
