A compelling challenge to conventional thought' - "New York Times". In this newly updated edition of his classic text on the "economics of abundance", Galbraith lays bare the hazards of individual and social complacency about economic inequality. It is as relevant now, with the ever-widening gap between rich and poor, as when it was first published 40 years ago. Galbraith challenges why we worship work and productivity when so many of the goods we produce are superfluous, and why we grudge spending on public works while ignoring extravagance in the private sector. "The Affluent Society" exemplifies Galbraith's wit, clarity and eloquence of prose.
在经济学逐渐把自身定位成自然科学,基础学科。并竭力给人留下严谨而充满数学模型印象的过程中,加尔布雷思于主流经济学界确实算是异类。就仅仅和对头萨缪尔森的《经济学》已经再版18次相比,加氏的那种少了模型多了良心的“异端”经济学似乎在主流经济横行的现代是卖不动...
評分在其它书里读到过,曾经有行为经济学家做过很有名的试验,测试在工人中间,奖励和惩罚的激励效果。 测试人员找了一群工人,分为三组。 他们告诉第一组,如果全组超额完成工作,在原有的工资上,每个人能会得到一笔奖励; 告诉第二组,如果全组超额完成工作,每个人会得到一笔奖...
評分加尔布雷斯的《富裕社会》。鉴于时间有限,而图书无限,本想仅看看序言翻翻书中深得我心的几个章节即罢,难能可贵的是此书译文文字竟是真“中文”,也就忍不住多读几章。译文全然与往日翻看的西方经济学译著的语言风格不一般。不求浮华辞藻、惊人语句,但求语句流畅、最大限...

评分經濟學早超越學科功能成為影響社會要素。反思亞當斯密,裏卡多以來對“生産”的強調導緻的社會不安全感,凡事GDP。提升生産必然帶來欲望增加,而貨幣經濟政策麵對conventional wisdom隻是追逐尾巴的貓。私有化與社會,投資平衡本不可調和。不同意The Affluent Society中銷售稅的解決方案,期待New Class
评分終於看完瞭。。。在開始的時候有點不適應,用詞太巧妙瞭(其實是我詞匯太少)。作者描述瞭在以生産最大化、經濟增長為中心的信仰下,美國的發展。作者認為傳統經濟學認為生産創造需求,能解決各種問題的觀念是錯誤的。此外,書中有些對於人性、心理的揭示說的很好啊,讓我不禁懷疑莫非經濟學傢尤其是重注社會福利的,都是有哲學基礎嗎?!
评分I now understand why he hasn't got a NP... NVM, don't bother.
