This wholly original new work by the best-selling author of The Great Unraveling challenges America to reclaim the values that made it great.

With this major new volume, Paul Krugman, today's most widely read economist, studies the past eighty years of American history, from the reforms that tamed the harsh inequality of the Gilded Age to the unraveling of that achievement and the reemergence of immense economic and political inequality since the 1970s. Seeking to understand both what happened to middle-class America and what it will take to achieve a "new New Deal," Krugman has created his finest book to date, a work that weaves together a nuanced account of three generati*** of history with sharp political, social, and economic ***ysis. This book, written with Krugman's trademark ability to explain complex issues simply, will transform the debate about American social policy in much the same way as did John Kenneth Galbraith's deeply influential book, The Affluent Society.

From Publishers Weekly

Starred Review. Economist and New York Times columnist Krugman's stimulating manifesto aims to galvanize today's progressives the way Barry Goldwater's The C***cience of a C***ervative did right-wingers in 1964. Krugman's great theme is economic equality and the liberal politics that *** it. America's post-war middle-class society was not the automatic product of a free-market economy, he writes, but was created... by the policies of the Roosevelt Administration. By strengthening labor uni*** and taxing the rich to fund redistributive programs like Social Security and Medicare, the New Deal c***ensus narrowed the income gap, lifted the working class out of poverty and made the economy boom. Things went awry, Krugman contends, with the Republican Party's takeover by movement c***ervatism, practicing a politics of deception [and] distraction to advance the interests of the wealthy. C***ervative initiatives to cut taxes for the rich, dismantle social programs and demolish uni***, he argues, have led to sharply rising inequality, with the incomes of the wealthiest soaring while those of most workers stagnate. Krugman's accessible, stylishly presented argument deftly combines economic data with social and political ***ysis; his account of the racial politics driving c***ervative successes is especially sharp. The result is a compelling historical defense of liberalism and a clarion call for Americans to retake control of their economic destiny. (Oct.)

书籍介绍

What has gone wrong with America? With The C***cience 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 c***ervative movement determined to undermine the New Deal's achievements - a movement whose founding manifesto was Barry Goldwater's The C***cience of a C***ervative. 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 bar***.

Now the tide may be turning - and in The C***cience 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 c***ervatives 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 ***anized political movements. He explains how defenders of inequality have exploited cultural and racial divisi*** to their advantage, while reformers have found ways to bridge those divisi***. And he argues that the time is ripe for another great era of reform.

Last but not least, The C***cience 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 *** and be ***ed by reform, *** our society not just more equal but more democratic.
