以務實觀點，修正資本主義的現今問題──The Future of Capitalism: Facing the New Anxieties
世界的裂痕正在擴大，貧富差距、城鄉差距、階級對立加深，面對這些問題起而回應的是民粹主義、戰後社會主義的復甦。知名經濟學家Paul Collier從政治、經濟、文化三大層面，概述全球現況。以自身的非洲經驗，透視全球的不平等，也坦率自省過往的錯誤，他希望提醒世人理性冷靜思考，也以務實的觀點，對資本主義現況提出了修正與建議。
From world-renowned economist Paul Collier, a candid diagnosis of the failures of capitalism and a pragmatic and realistic vision for how we can repair it.
Deep new rifts are tearing apart the fabric of the United States and other Western societies: thriving cities versus rural counties, the highly skilled elite versus the less educated, wealthy versus developing countries. As these divides deepen, we have lost the sense of ethical obligation to others that was crucial to the rise of post-war social democracy. So far these rifts have been answered only by the revivalist ideologies of populism and socialism, leading to the seismic upheavals of Trump, Brexit, and the return of the far-right in Germany. We have heard many critiques of capitalism but no one has laid out a realistic way to fix it, until now.
In a passionate and polemical book, celebrated economist Paul Collier outlines brilliantly original and ethical ways of healing these rifts—economic, social and cultural—with the cool head of pragmatism, rather than the fervor of ideological revivalism. He reveals how he has personally lived across these three divides, moving from working-class Sheffield to hyper-competitive Oxford, and working between Britain and Africa, and acknowledges some of the failings of his profession.
Drawing on his own solutions as well as ideas from some of the world’s most distinguished social scientists, he shows us how to save capitalism from itself—and free ourselves from the intellectual baggage of the twentieth century.
