Contemporary Perspectives. Economy and Society in the 21st Century (Volume II)
Keywords:
Financial education, Influencer marketing, Energy transition, Circular economy, Tax policy.Synopsis
This book analyzes five key axes for sustainable development in the 21st century: 1) Financial education as the basis for responsible economic citizenship, highlighting its critical and transversal approach; 2) The impact of influencer marketing, revealing how authenticity and reputation management determine its effectiveness; 3) The geopolitical contrasts of the energy transition, exposing the power dynamics in the trade of critical minerals; 4) Programmed obsolescence and the challenges of implementing a real circular economy; and 5) The concrete impact of tax reforms on local economies, analyzing the case of Ecuador. Through diverse methodologies (documentary analysis, quantitative and qualitative studies), the book connects these apparently disparate dimensions, demonstrating their interdependence in the construction of more just and sustainable societies. Aimed at educators, policymakers, economists and marketing professionals, it offers both critical diagnoses and practical proposals to address global challenges from local and innovative perspectives.
