Paul Krugman has at least three jobs: he is professor of economics and international affairs at Princeton University; Centenary Professor at the London School of Economics; and, perhaps his best-known job, an op-ed columnist for the New York Times.

What has gone wrong with America? With The Conscience of a Liberal, best-selling author Paul Krugman points the way to a new New Deal.

America emerged from Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal with strong democratic values and broadly shared prosperity. But for the past thirty years American politics has been dominated by a conservative movement determined to undermine the New Deal's achievements - a movement whose founding manifesto was Barry Goldwater's The Conscience of a Conservative. That movement has been highly successful in turning the clock back: both the inequality of today's America and the corruption of its political life hark back to the age of the robber barons.

Now the tide may be turning - and in The Conscience of a Liberal Paul Krugman, the world's most widely read economist and one of its most influential political commentators, charts the way to reform.

Krugman ranges over a century of history, from the political economy of the Gilded Age - which seems all too familiar these days - to the calamities of the Bush years, which he argues were inevitable once movement conservatives gained full control of the U.S. government. He shows that neither the middle-class America the baby boomers grew up in nor the increasingly oligarchic nation we have become over the past generation evolved naturally: both were created, to a large extent, by government policies guided by organized political movements. He explains how defenders of inequality have exploited cultural and racial divisions to their advantage, while reformers have found ways to bridge those divisions. And he argues that the time is ripe for another great era of reform.

Last but not least, The Conscience of a Liberal outlines a program for change. It shows how universal health care can be the centerpiece of a new New Deal, just as Social Security was the core of the original. It explains what can be done to narrow the wealth and income gap. And it shows how a new political coalition can both support and be supported by reform, making our society not just more equal but more democratic.

自从Krugman独得诺奖之后,本地大学图书馆里这本书就被一人接一人紧着预约,受欢迎程度可见一斑。如同前人评论所说,一边读这本给自由主义者的指南针一边就会越来越‘热血沸腾’,不禁拍案痛斥共和党派的种种卑鄙行为,同时恨不得马上洗清自己之前曾经对民主党、左派的主意有过...

我是听Audiobook,听到1/4,远在FDR的New Deal之前,美国的财富分配体系已经开始极端化了,于是1929年大危机出现了。 FDR的应对方法就是增强social welfare来改善收入分配,而针对更加不平均的财富占有体系,对应的方法就是征收高额的遗产税。 可惜的是FDR的政策并没有很好的贯...

首先请诸位千万别误解我的意思。克鲁格曼的文章从来都很深刻很尖锐,但是我不得不说的是,翻译的水平实在是太差了。 十分怀疑刘波小朋友只是用简单的谷歌翻译再稍加润色一下就拿来发表了,而且更加意外的是出版社的众位啊编辑们竟然也就这么糊里糊涂的给印了。 错误累赘的翻译...

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...

不如他的blog好看。不过在左派经济学家中,克鲁格曼是少数能在学术上与自由主义经济学比肩的人;至少曾经是。
