Perché l'economia italiana non riesce a ripartire? Secondo Carlo Cottarelli, la precarietà che ostacola la nostra ripresa economica non è legata a un destino che siamo costretti a subire. Deriva soprattutto da sette gravissimi errori che il sistema dell'economia italiana continua a commettere. Sono i peccati capitali dell'economia italiana: l'evasione fiscale, la corruzione, la troppa burocrazia, la lentezza della giustizia, il crollo demografico, l'incapacità di stare nell'euro, il divario tra Nord e Sud.

Ten years later, this fully updated new edition tackles the post-recession era of economic recovery.

In Divested, Ken-Hou Lin and Megan Tobias Neely document how the ascendance of finance on Wall Street, Main Street, and among households is a fundamental cause of economic inequality.

The good news is that the development of modern technology in our material economy has us on the brink of prosperity.

Martin Limbeck lamentiert nicht, er packt an.

Se quel che conta è la prosperità delle persone, il mercato e lo stato, eterni poli fra cui oscilla l'economia, non sono altro che strumenti per raggiungere quell'obiettivo e a nulla valgono le prese di posizione ideologiche. La contrapposizione stato vs mercato è superata: sarà sempre necessario prevedere un mix dei due. In questa dialettica che difficilmente trova un equilibrio, spesso eventi dirompenti vengono a favorire pericolose estremizzazioni. Avendo acquisito un potere maggiore, a causa della globalizzazione, il mercato finirà per scontrarsi con i suoi limiti?
