23 Things They Don't Tell You About Capitalism
Description
In this insightful exploration, Ha-Joon Chang dismantles the myths surrounding free-market capitalism, revealing the often-hidden realities of global economic dynamics. Through compelling examples and rigorous analysis, the book challenges conventional wisdom on topics ranging from free trade and regulation to the true drivers of economic growth. Chang argues that the "free market" is a carefully constructed system, not a natural phenomenon, and that government intervention and protectionist policies have historically been crucial for the prosperity of developed nations. Ultimately, the book offers a thought-provoking perspective on how capitalism can be reshaped to serve more humane and equitable ends.
