Buchtipps: Das sind die zehn besten Wirtschaftsbücher des Jahres
Das Handelsblatt hat die zehn besten Neuerscheinungen der vergangenen zwölf Monate, die Wirtschaft erklären, herausgefiltert. Sie sind nominiert für den Deutschen Wirtschaftsbuchpreis.
The German Economic Book Award, a biannual event organized by the Handelsblatt in collaboration with the Frankfurt Book Fair, Goldman Sachs, and R+V Versicherung, seeks to "understand economics." This year's contenders were the ten books on the Shortlist, chosen from the latest publications of the year. German publishers were allowed to submit up to three books, and over 80 titles were presented to the editorial team.
A distinguished jury of economists and entrepreneurs, presided over by Handelsblatt Senior Editor Hans-Jürgen Jakobs, will ultimately determine the winner. The upheavals in geopolitics, the growing dominance of tech oligarchs, artificial intelligence, and Germany's economic challenges are the topics that publishers hope to engage readers with in the coming year.
The Deutsche Economic Book Award ceremony will take place for the 20th time on October 8, 2026, in Frankfurt. Here are the ten books on the Shortlist: Joachim Bauer's "Menschlichkeit in digitalen Zeiten. Warum wir ohne lebendige Wirklichkeit nicht leben können" (Humanity in Digital Times: Why We Cannot Live Without a Living Reality), published by Heyne Verlag in Munich, 2026, at 320 pages and 24 Euros.
