Walden Bello
Rezensionen
'A stark warning about the vulnerable state of global financial markets from one of our most acute and prescient thinkers.'
Naomi Klein, author of This Changes Everything and The Shock Doctrine

'Startling, revelatory, brilliant! An astonishing exposé of the frightening economic details of this moment.'
Jerry Mander, author of The Capitalism Papers

'Walden Bello, in this terrifying new book, explains that, if major changes are not taken, the same set of circumstances - unregulated shadow banking, runaway financial speculation and an overheated real estate bubble - are poised to take down China's economy, and perhaps the world's with it. A very important book for this political moment.
Maude Barlow, author of Blue Future and chairperson of the Council of Canadians

'A tour de force of past and future financial crises by the globe's most astute progressive political economist. Bello puts forward a comprehensive agenda to prevent the next crisis.'
Robin Broad, Guggenheim Fellow and Professor, American University

'Walden Bello brilliantly explains how our global financial system still operates as a giant casino - with China now one of the most reckless gamblers. Read this book to learn how we can tame the global financial casino - before China and other reckless gamblers cause the next crash.'
Sarah Anderson, Global Economy Project Director

'Crisply and clearly written, Paper Dragons demonstrates that: "Yes, it can happen here, again and again." Politicians and lawmakers everywhere had better get a grip on finance, now. Or watch out, World!'
Susan George, President of the Transnational Institute and author of How the Other Half Dies

'Walden Bello suggests that, while the next devastating crisis with global ramifications can strike any one of capitalism's many nodes, the immediate threat comes from Asian giant, China. The lesson? Reform of capitalism may be the immediate call, but in the final analysis we must transform how the system works and we live our lives.'
C. P. Chandrasekhar, Professor of Economics, Jawaharlal Nehru University

'Walden Bello shows how global capitalism remains structurally prone to financial crises. With clarity and conviction, Bello continues to explain reality lucidly and inspire progressive alternatives.'
Jayati Ghosh, Professor of Economics Jawaharlal Nehru University

'The question may not be if another crash will take place, but when and where will it start. Bello eschews pessimist fatalism, arguing for a broad programme of financial reforms integrated into a comprehensive programme of reforms of the real economy. Inspired and accessible ... Wholeheartedly recommended!' Heikki Patomäki, Professor of World Politics, University of Helsinki, author of The Great Eurozone Crisis

'In 2008, a U.S. housing bubble careened out of control and plunged the world into a gruesome global financial crisis. Bello brilliantly lays out the case that - unless we put effective checks in place - the next financial crisis will likely erupt in China.'
John Cavanagh, Director, Institute for Policy Studies

'In this volume, Walden Bello demonstrates that East and Southeast Asia has been the location of multiple financial crises, despite enjoying an international reputation as a group of successful globalizers.'
Manuel Montes, Senior Analyst, South Center, Geneva

'Walden Bello is one of the rare truly global thinkers. A must-read for those seeking prevent the next financial meltdown.
Superb.'Cornelia Woll, Professor of Political Science; author of The Power of Inaction: Bank Bailouts in Comparison
'Walden Bello is one of the foremost analysts of global economics and politics of our time. He shows that the global economy is a ticking time bomb. Erudite and eloquent, this book could not be timelier. This is a must read.' William I. Robinson, Professor of Sociology, University of California
'Walden Bello argues that fragility remains within the system and points to China as the potential source of the world's next major economic crisis. He raises issues that citizens, policymakers, and financial players ignore at their peril.'Dean Baker, Co-founder and Senior Economist, Center for Economic Policy Research
