About this product
Description
- DescriptionEmbedded in an historical account of the development of U.S. capitalism up to the present day, this book gives the reader a thorough description of the major aspects of the U.S. ecomy, as well as a theoretical understanding of the overall ecomy. A particular focus of this book is how free markets work in capitalism and the interrelationship between markets and the government. Of particular interest in the current ecomic situation is the question of what can the government do to get the ecomy going again. Underlying the standard ecomics text today is the fundamental belief that leaving markets as free as possible will lead to the ideal ecomy. Directly opposing this approach, this book takes a critical stance toward free markets. Rather than viewing markets as the ideal solution to almost all ecomic problems, this book argues that markets are t always the answer. On the contrary, they are often the problem, and must be corrected by government action. Related to this critical stance, and in a further departure from current ecomics texts, this book takes an explicitly Keynesian approach to the macro-ecomy. Rejecting the free market approach which dominates both micro- and macro-ecomics today, this book offers a fresh perspective on ecomics and the ecomy today.
