Veja abaixo alguns comentários sobre a obra.

 

"Thomas Palley has provided a penetrating analysis of the Great Recession, the weakness of the policy response, and the role of economic ideas in both. If we are to avoid the Great Stagnation – and build a more equitable and sustainable economic future – economists and policy makers must fundamentally change the way they think about economics and politics.   Mr. Palley points the way."
– Ron Blackwell, Chief Economist, AFL-CIO

 

“Thomas Palley's carefully argued study combines an acute critique of conventional economic thinking with thoughtful and stimulating proposals to fix America's broken economic policies.”

– Thomas Ferguson, University of Massachusetts Boston, and Senior Fellow, Roosevelt Institute

 

"In the depths of the Great Depression, John Maynard Keynes wrote that 'nothing is required, and nothing will avail, except a little clear thinking.' Thomas Palley here renews that message for our time."
– James K. Galbraith, author of Inequality and Instability: A Study of the World Economy Just Before the Great Crisis

"This is an outstanding book: clear, concise, and comprehensive. It shows that the economic crisis is the result of economic policies derived from flawed ideas and flawed ideologies. Read it and recommend it to your friends. It provides a map to overcome the great stagnation and to return to shared prosperity."
– José Antonio Ocampo, Columbia University, Former UN Under-Secretary-General for Economic and Social Affairs and former Finance Minister of Colombia

“In this perspicacious and persuasive book, Tom Palley shows how conventional economic thinking led ultimately to the disaster of the Great Recession and how it is now threatening to culminate in the Great Stagnation. His thoughts on how to avoid that and how to recover are compelling and important.”

– Clyde Prestowitz, President, Economic Strategy Institute
