The Great Unraveling : Losing Our Way in the New Century - Krugman, Paul

A galvanizing work from America's leading economic critic?a book that will set the terms of the political debate for years to come.

No one has more authority to call the shots the way they really are than Paul Krugman, whose provocative New York Times columns are keenly followed by millions. One of the world's most respected economists, Krugman has been named America's most important columnist by the Washington Monthly and columnist of the year by Editor and Publisher magazine.

In this long-awaited work containing Krugman's most influential columns along with new commentary, he chronicles how the boom economy unraveled: how exuberance gave way to pessimism, how the age of corporate heroes gave way to corporate scandals, how fiscal responsibility collapsed. From his account of the secret history of the California energy crisis to his devastating dissections of dishonesty in the Bush administration, Krugman tells the uncomfortable truth about how the United States lost its way. And he gives us the road map we will need to follow if we are to get the country back on track.

Paul Krugman kirjoittaa kirjassa Yhdysvaltojen taloudesta 2000-luvulla ja selittää, miksi taloudessa on paljon ongelmia. Kirja kertoo osakemarkkinoista, rahapolitiikasta ja siitä, miten poliittiset päätökset vaikuttavat ihmisten elämään. Krugman esittää myös, miten maailman talous ja politiikka liittyvät toisiinsa.
