End this depression now!: A review of Paul Krugman's book
This paperback version of the Nobel-Prize winning economist Paul Krugmanâs New York Timesâ best-seller book reviews if the findings in hardcover version remained well-founded after major political and economic actions (US elections, European austerity measures), and it seemed that the essential message remained unchanged.
Krugman aims to answer primarily not how the 2008 crisis happened but what to do to recover and how to avoid similar cases in the future. First of all we must use our knowledge of previous depressions, then accept that we are in a depression and take the proper steps: job creation instead of austerity
Is discrepancy between confidence and spending driven by pessimism or by high aspriations? â Review of the discrepancy between the admitted financial situation and actual spending in Hungary
The opinions of people are expected to forecast their actions, and even major economic institutions rely on this correlation. This research paper examines a case when the opinion of people about their financial situation contradicts their financial-related actions. In 2012 in Hungary the general opinion of people about their financial situation was showing the lowest confidence in the world, with a significant declining trend, reaching an extremely low level. Although the general expectation would be that this pessimism triggers a set-back in consumer spending, figures show that Hungarians were on the other end of the scale regarding their expenditures and were greatly increasing their spending. This raises the question: why do people say they are in such a tough financial situation yet instead of saving they increase their spending? This paper presents a cross-country analysis that reviews the severity of this discrepancy, as well as proves the validity of the question by excluding several alternative explanations, followed by a recommendation and hypotheses for a detailed research to explain the phenomenon

A TERHELT A GAZDASAÌGI BĆ°NUÌGYEKBEN
A terhelt az eljĂĄrĂĄs központi szemĂ©lye, vele szemben folytatjĂĄk a bĂŒntetĆeljĂĄrĂĄst. A terhelt kifejezĂ©s gyƱjtĆfogalom, a terhelt a nyomozĂĄs elĆtt feljelentett szemĂ©ly, a nyomozĂĄs sorĂĄn gyanĂșsĂtott, a bĂrĂłsĂĄgi eljĂĄrĂĄsban vĂĄdlott, a bĂŒntetĂ©s jogerĆs kiszabĂĄsa (illetĆleg megrovĂĄs, prĂłbĂĄra bocsĂĄtĂĄs vagy javĂtĂłintĂ©zeti nevelĂ©s jogerĆs alkalmazĂĄsa) utĂĄn pedig elĂtĂ©lt (illetĆleg jogerĆsen felmentett)
A bĂŒntetĆeljĂĄrĂĄs egyszerƱsĂtĂ©se Ă©s gyorsĂtĂĄsa = Reduction and acceleration in the Criminal Procedure Law
A 2005-ös Ă©vben mind a szƱkebb kutatĂĄsi terĂŒletemen (a bĂŒntetĆeljĂĄrĂĄs gyorsĂtĂĄsa Ă©s egyszerƱsĂtĂ©se), mind a komplex bĂŒntetĆ eljĂĄrĂĄsjogi ismeretek terĂ©n fontos kutatĂłmunkĂĄt vĂ©geztem. Az Ă©v sorĂĄn lehetĆsĂ©gem nyĂlt több kĂŒlföldi egyetemen is kutatĂłmunkĂĄt vĂ©gezni. NĂ©melyiket az OTKA tĂĄmogatĂĄsbĂłl finanszĂroztam, mĂĄs rĂ©szĂŒket a PTE, azon belĂŒl is az Ăllam- Ă©s JogtudomĂĄnyi Kar fedezte. A kĂŒlföldi kutatĂĄsok (Pozsony, MĂŒnchen, Vilnius, Graz, PrĂĄga, Firenze stb.) eredmĂ©nyekĂ©ppen igen gazdag anyag gyƱlt össze az OTKA kutatĂĄshoz. A kĂŒlföldön vĂ©gzett kutatĂĄsnak konkrĂ©t eredmĂ©nyei is szĂŒlettek, többek között ez tette lehetĆvĂ© a 2005. Ă©vben megjelent 8 idegen nyelvƱ Ă©s egy magyar nyelvƱ tanulmĂĄny elkĂ©szĂtĂ©sĂ©t. Ezek jĂł rĂ©sze közvetlenĂŒl a kutatĂĄsi terĂŒlethez kapcsolĂłdik, mĂĄs rĂ©szĂŒk annak egyes rĂ©szkĂ©rdĂ©seit Ă©rinti. Az eredeti munkaterv szerint 2006. Ă©vben kell sort kerĂteni egy összefoglalĂł monogrĂĄfia elkĂ©szĂtĂ©sĂ©re. Ez vĂĄrhatĂłan 2006. Ă©v vĂ©gĂ©n fog megjelenni Ă©s a kutatĂĄsi terĂŒletnek megfelelĆen a bĂŒntetĆeljĂĄrĂĄs gyorsĂtĂĄsa, azon belĂŒl is kĂŒlönösen a vĂĄdalkus eljĂĄrĂĄs a tĂ©mĂĄja. ĂsszessĂ©gĂ©ben a kutatĂĄst eredmĂ©nyesnek ĂtĂ©lem meg, kĂŒlönös tekintettel arra, hogy a fent emlĂtett tanulmĂĄnyokon felĂŒl GazdasĂĄgi bĂŒntetĆeljĂĄrĂĄs cĂmmel egyetemi tananyagot is Ărtam (amely szintĂ©n nagyban koncentrĂĄl az egyszerƱsĂtĂ©s Ă©s gyorsĂtĂĄs kĂ©rdĂ©skörĂ©re). | In the year 2005, I performed important research work both in my specific area of research (quickening and simplifying the criminal procedure) and in the field of complex criminal procedures. I had possibility during the year to do research at a few foreign universities. Some of the researches were financed from OTKA support, some of them were financed by the PTE, more precisely the Faculty of Political Science and Law. As the result of the research abroad (Bratislava, Munich, Vilnius, Graz, Prague, Florence, etc,) I could collect a very rich material to the OTKA research. The research I did abroad had concrete results, this made possible among others the preparation of the 8 studies in foreign language and one study in Hungarian language published in 2005. Many of these are directly connected to the field of research some of them tackle certain partial issues thereof. According to the original work plan a summary monograph should be prepared in 2006. This will probably come out at the end of 2006 and the subject will be in harmony with the research field namely the quickening of the criminal procedures, within this the plea bargain procedure. I think that the research was successful as a whole, with special regard to the fact that in addition to the studies mentioned above I also wrote a university course book entitle Economic Criminal Procedure (which mostly focuses on the issue of quickening and simplifying)
On The (honest) truth about dishonesty: How we lie to everyone: Especially ourselves by Dan Ariely
In this book Dan Ariely follows the topic he started to discuss in his prior book, the Predictably Irrational: stating that there is logic and consistency behind irrational human thinking and actions. Ariely goes into more details and leads the general topic of irrationality through a narrow-down approach to the topic of cheating, one of the fields we could observe to work irrationally in some cases, and even within that to cheating within organizational environment
