Description

America emerged from Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal with strong democratic values and broadly shared prosperity. But for the past 30 years, American politics has been dominated by a conservative movement determined to undermine the New Deal's achievements.

Now, the tide may be turning, and in 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 and shows that neither the American middle-class nor the baby boomers who grew up in 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.

The Conscience of a Liberal promises to reshape public debate about American social policy and become a touchstone work for an entire generation.

Well

I am not a Liberal in the American sense of the word, so I read this book to see what someone with a differing point of view had to say. He did have some valid points, I will grant him that. However, there are two points where I really thought he was off the mark. The first was he laid blame to the nastiness of American politics on the right of the political spectrum. My very short precis of this part of the book is that everything was rainbows and unicorns until the right of the political spectrum in America got angry and that lead to a breakdown in civil discourse. I think his history needs to be checked on that one. The second part was his questioning of Milton Friedman's assertion that the great depression was caused to a severe contraction in the money supply. I think he's out to lunch on that one too. Again, Krugman is not someone that I would generally agree with, so if you are into tribal reading and you are on the left, you'll love this. If you are on the right, you'll hate it. If you come in with a reasonably open mind from anywhere on the political spectrum, you will probably learn a thing or two and it will get you thinking. #Audible1
