The Limits of the Market Zusammenfassung

The Limits of the Market: The Pendulum Between Government and Market Paul De Grauwe (Professor, London School of Economics)

The old discussion of 'Market or State' is obsolete. There will always have to be a mix of market and state. The only relevant question is what that mix should look like. How far do we have to let the market go its own way in order to create as much welfare as possible for everyone? What is the responsibility of the government in creating welfare? These are difficult questions. But they are also interesting questions and Paul De Grauwe analyses them in this book. The desired mix of market and state is anything but easy to bring about. It is a difficult and sometimes destructive process that is constantly in motion. There are periods in history in which the market gains in importance. During other periods the opposite occurs and government is more dominant. The turning points in this pendulum swing typically seem to coincide with disruptive events that test the limits of market and state. Why we experience this dynamic is an important theme in the book. Will the market, which today is afforded a greater and greater role due to globalization, run up against its limits? Or do the financial crisis and growing income inequality show that we have already reached those limits? Do we have to brace ourselves for a rejection of the capitalist system? Are we returning to an economy in which the government is running the show?

The Limits of the Market Bewertungen

The book is a concise and straightforward look into the application of modern capitalism, its esoteric contradictions that threaten to tear it apart, and its relationship with government... Aside from the effective analysis, a major advantage of the book is the explanatory narrative that the author utilizes, with minimal references, making it accessible to both academic and non-academic audiences. * Alexandros Kyriakidis, JMCS *
An excellent book on the ideological debate between market and state... The book is just a joy to read. Both economists and general readers will find it very useful. * Syed Basher (East West University, Bangladesh), Economic Record *
One of Europe's leading economists, Paul de Grauwe is such a guide. In his lucid new book, the Belgian professor now based at the LSE explains how one should think about the balance between markets and governments as systems interacting with one another over time: an excellent little guide to how one should think about where we are and might be going. * Martin Wolf, Financial Times *
In this lucid little book, De Grauwe, a Belgian economist now at the London School of Economics, explains why neither a pure market economy nor a purely government-controlled one is desirable. Getting the balance between market and government is extremely difficult. In practice, we lurch too far in one direction and then the other. * Financial Times, Best Books of 2017 *
