Stiglitz Economics

A bold new blueprint for action from one of globalization's closest observers and toughest critics.
An imaginative and, above all, practical vision for a successful and equitable world, Nobel Prize winner Joseph E. Stiglitz's Making Globalization Work draws equally from his academic expertise and his time spent on the ground in dozens of countries around the world.

Son livre à paraître est consacré à l'un des grands sujets de l'économie actuelle et curieusement assez peu traité : Les inégalités. Dans ce livre majeur Joseph Stiglitz explique comment les inégalités ont ainsi prospéré dans le monde depuis près de 20 ans.

Joseph Stiglitz is one of the world's greatest economists. He has made fundamental contributions to economic theory in areas such as inequality, the implications of imperfect and asymmetric information, and competition, and he has been a major figure in policy making, a leading public intellectual, and a remarkably influential teacher and mentor. This collection of essays influenced by Stiglitz's work celebrates his career as a scholar and teacher and his aspiration to put economic knowledge in the service of creating a fairer world.
