"Some people are born wealthy, some people become wealthy, and some people are born ppor and stay that way."讲了各种经济政策的转变,算是对美国近三十年来的经济总结。
评分20世界60年代以后,经济学家开始真正影响世界。本书内容正如副标题所言,是关于经济学家那些错误的预言,自由市场的演进以及由于高度推崇市场而导致的社会断裂。在追求经济增长的过程中,我们常常会忘记“人才是目的”。市场由人构成,为人而服务的,人能够改变和重构它。

评分非常喜欢的一本书!今年FT的荐书,基本上写的是关于在弗里德曼之流影响之下美国70s-90s经济政策的转变。如何利用种种政策把美国从一个偏向劳方,中小企业/产业工人,借方的经济体,转变成了一个偏向资方,大公司/消费者,贷方的当下....料还挺足的,凯恩斯/供给侧/新自由主义下的细节都给出了充分的说明。

Binyamin Appelbaum writes about economics and business for the editorial page of The New York Times. From 2010 to 2019, he was a Washington correspondent for the Times, covering economic policy in the aftermath of the 2008 crisis. He previously worked for The Charlotte Observer, where his reporting on subprime lending won a George Polk Award and was a finalist for the 2008 Pulitzer Prize.
Before the 1960s, American politicians had never paid much attention to economists. But as the post-World War II boom began to sputter, economists gained influence and power.
In The Economists' Hour, Binyamin Appelbaum traces the rise of the economists, first in the United States and then around the globe, as their ideas reshaped the modern world, curbing government, unleashing corporations and hastening globalization.
Some leading figures are relatively well-known, such as Milton Friedman, the elfin libertarian who had a greater influence on American life than any other economist of his generation, and Arthur Laffer, who sketched a curve on a cocktail napkin that helped to make tax cuts a staple of conservative economic policy.
Others stayed out of the limelight, but left a lasting impact on modern life: Walter Oi, a blind economist who dictated to his wife and assistants some of the calculations that persuaded President Nixon to end military conscription; Alfred Kahn, who deregulated air travel and rejoiced in the crowded cabins on commercial flights as the proof of his success; and Thomas Schelling, who put a dollar value on human life.
Their fundamental belief? That government should stop trying to manage the economy.
Their guiding principle? That markets would deliver steady growth, and ensure that all Americans shared in the benefits.
But the Economists' Hour failed to deliver on its promise of broad prosperity. And the single-minded embrace of markets has come at the expense of economic equality, of the health of liberal democracy, and of future generations.
Timely, engaging and expertly researched, The Economists' Hour is a reckoning-and a call for people to rewrite the rules of the market.
