Publisher Summary 1
This volume by Snowdon (economics and international business, Northumbria U., UK) is really two books in one. The first is an explanatory survey of the major global economic issues--the causes and consequences of increasing international economic integration and globalization, long-run economic growth and development, the rise and fall of the socialist economies, and the problems of transition to capitalism--that is characterized by an emphasis on the importance of economic history. The second revisits these themes within interviews with prominent economists including Daron Acemoglu, Alberto Alesina, Padma Desai, William Easterly, Stanley Fischer, J谩nos Kornai, Michael Porter, Dani Rodrix, Jeffrey Sachs, Xavier Sala-i-Martin, and Jeffrey Willamson.
