In "The Conscience of a Liberal", Paul Krugman, one of the US' most respected economists and outspoken commentators, lays out his vision of a New Deal for a fairer society. After the Second World War it seemed that, in the West, society was gradually becoming more equal. Welfare States had been established in many countries, there was a general reduction in income inequality and in America Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal seemed to ensure strong democratic values and broadly shared prosperity. So what went wrong? Why, in the past thirty years, has the gap between the poor and the super-rich become such a gulf? Why are we so disillusioned with the political system? And what can be done about this huge economic inequality and bitter polarization?Krugman argues that the time is ripe for another era of great reform. Here he outlines a programme for change, explaining what can be done to narrow the wealth gap. And he shows how a new political coalition can both support and be supported by reform, making our society not just more equal but more democratic. "The Conscience of a Liberal" promises to reshape public debate and become a touchstone work.

克鲁格曼将此书的副标题叫做《一个自由主义者的良知》,让我们这些习惯了自由之保守概念者,颇感意外。 联想到美国新任总统奥巴马在就职演说中对政府的评价,“我们今天的问题不是政府太大或太小,而是有无功效,是否能帮助家庭找到薪水不错的工作,支付得起照顾费用,...
評分在美国社会主义者盗用“自由主义”一词的做法中,就存在着一个巧妙的骗局。熊彼特对此作了恰当的阐述:“一个或许不是有意为之的最高赞扬是,私人企业制度的敌人也认为盗用自由主义标签是明智的。”早在1911年,霍布豪斯就出版过一本题为《自由主义》而更确切地说应称为“社会...
評分什么叫媒体的超级明星?什么叫智囊团?克鲁格曼算是做了个近似完美的演示。 大量的数据应用分析,历史背景介绍,对民生问题深入简出的全面阐述,玩转自由主义和保守主义在自力行距之间。一路上看下来,总觉得言之有理,却问题颇多。共和党未必像他说的那么一意孤行,民主党的...
評分如果直譯書名,The Conscience of a Liberal應該是《一個自由主義者的良心》,台灣的時報出版社的譯名《下一個榮景:政治如何搭救經濟》,跟英文書名風馬牛不相及,大概是因為怕直譯書名會趕客吧。 克魯曼(Paul Krugman)是今屆諾貝爾經濟學獎得主,平日看信報或者...
