In this book, Nobel Prize-winning economist Edmund Phelps draws on a lifetime of thinking to make a sweeping new argument about what makes nations prosper--and why the sources of that prosperity are under threat today.

For nearly seventy years, America’s housing market has run on one basic formula: growth. We built bigger, farther, and faster — fueled by cheap land, cheap energy, and the Baby Boom generation’s demand for space. That system worked for decades. It created wealth, jobs, and a powerful cultural story: the American Dream as a house on the edge of town. But that dream is now running in reverse. Our demographics have flipped. Fertility rates are at historic lows. The average household size has shrunk dramatically. More Americans live alone than ever before.

La sortie de la crise de la COVID 19 et la reprise abrupte de l'activité économique a causé une montée de l'inflation brusque qui affecte tous les secteurs, à commencer par ceux des matières premières et de l'énergie.

L'essai est suivi d'une dizaine d'articles abordant l'inflation tirés des archives du Devoir.
