A Brighter Future:Improving the Standard of Living Now and for the Next Generation

图书简介

This book explores what is behind a faltering standard of living in the United States since the early 1980s and what can be done to restore it. Economics has traditionally equated economic growth with improvements in quality of life and the standard of living but this book questions that assumption. This book embodies a pluralistic approach and draws on the expertise of a wide array of thinkers to show standard of living as being more than income, to include many non-market aspects such as access to public goods, intangible aspects of quality of life such as equity and a sense of community, and broadly based economic opportunities.
