Current Economic Issues
The economy has been dominating the headlines, but the mainstream media rarely explain the real-world economics behind the slogans and ideology. The 15th edition of Current Economic Issues offers progressive perspectives on today's most important economic debates, while debunking some of the myths promoted by the business press. This lively anthology is completely updated, with the latest news and analysis of U.S. and global financial institutions, stimulus and bailouts, debt and deficits, foreclosures and bankruptcy, unemployment and workers activism, energy and environmental policies, military spending, health-care policy, class inequality, and much more. Contributors Frank Ackerman, Gar Alperovitz, William K. Black, Mary Bottari, Heather Boushey, James M. Cypher, Mike-Frank Epitropoulos, Gerald Friedman, Antonia Juhasz, Marie Kennedy, Arthur MacEwan, Fred Moseley, Sam Pizzigati, Dariush Sokolov, Chris Tilly, Richard D. Wolff, Marty Wolfson, and many others. Current Economic Issues is an invaluable tool for understanding the current crisis and proposed policy responses. Its well-researched, accessible articles are drawn from Dollars & Sense , the leading magazine of popular economics.
