Arjo Klamer In hemelsnaam!
over de economie van overvloed en onbehagen

Waarom zijn ze zo gefixeerd op economische groei? Omdat die groei makkelijk te meten is, betoogt Klamer. Dat geldt niet voor sociale en culturele factoren. Die laten zich nauwelijks of niet in cijfers...

Roy op het Veld De strijd om energie
hoe de groeiende honger naar olie en gas de wereld in een crisis stort

Tegelijkertijd ziet het Westen zijn eigen olie- en gasreserves snel teruglopen. Daardoor wordt het steeds afhankelijker van het Midden-Oosten en landen als Rusland en Venezuela. De eens zo dominante oliereuzen als Shell en ExxonMobil verliezen terrein aan staatsenergiemaatschappijen als Saudi Aramco en Gazprom. Zo langzamerhand krijgen...
