Описание: The Rise Of China Is No Doubt One Of The Most Important Events In World Economic History Since The Industrial Revolution. Mainstream Economics, Especially The Institutional Theory Of Economic Development Based On A Dichotomy Of Extractive Vs. Inclusive Political Institutions, Is Highly Inadequate In Explaining China'S Rise. This Book Argues That Only A Radical Reinterpretation Of The History Of The Industrial Revolution And The Rise Of The West (As Incorrectly Portrayed By The Institutional Theory) Can Fully Explain China'S Growth Miracle And Why The Determined Rise Of China Is Unstoppable Despite Its Current "Backward" Financial System And Political Institutions. Conversely, China'S Spectacular And Rapid Transformation From An Impoverished Agrarian Society To A Formidable Industrial Superpower Sheds Considerable Light On The Fundamental Shortcomings Of The Institutional Theory And Mainstream "Blackboard" Economic Models, And Provides More-Accurate Reevaluations Of Historical Episodes Such As Africa'S Enduring Poverty Trap Despite Radical Political And Economic Reforms, Latin America'S Lost Decades And Frequent Debt Crises, 19Th Century Europe'S Great Escape From The Malthusian Trap, And The Industrial Revolution Itself.

Описание:
Policy debates are often grounded within the conceptual confines of a state-market dichotomy, as though the two existed in complete isolation. In this innovative text, Marc Allen Eisner portrays the state and the market as inextricably linked, exploring the variety of institutions subsumed by the market and the role that the state plays in creating the institutional foundations of economic activity. Through a historical approach, Eisner situates the study of American political economy within a larger evolutionary-institutional framework that integrates perspectives in American political development and economic sociology.
This volume provides a rich understanding of the complexity of U.S. economic policy, explaining how public policies become embedded in bureaucracy and reinforced by organized beneficiaries and public expectations. This path-dependent layering process helps students better understand the underlying historical dynamics, which provide a clearer sense of the constraints faced by policymakers now and in the future.

Описание: Most discussions attribute the 2008 financial crisis to financial complexity and regulatory laxity. According to Thomas Oatley, such explanations are incomplete. Through an examination of America`s postwar history, this book demonstrates that episodes of major financial instability develop every time the United States engages in a large deficit-financed military buildup.
