Economic Freedom and the American Dream

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Economic Freedom and the American Dream explores the effect of economic freedom on America in areas such as politics and the economy. Shaanan challenges the conventional view that unrestricted economic freedom enhances our economic and political well being. He demonstrates that unrestricted economic freedom provides benefits but also inflicts a heavy toll on democracy, free markets and, paradoxically, economic freedom itself. By focusing on the economic liberty of individuals, corporations and markets, the book offers an original perspective on some of the nation's most difficult dilemmas.
