Matthew C. Klein is the economics commentator at Barron’s. He lives in San Francisco, CA. Michael Pettis is professor of finance at Peking University’s Guanghua School of Management and a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. He lives in Beijing.
Trade disputes are usually understood as conflicts between countries with competing national interests, but as Matthew C. Klein and Michael Pettis show, they are often the unexpected result of domestic political choices to serve the interests of the rich at the expense of workers and ordinary retirees. Klein and Pettis trace the origins of today’s trade wars to decisions made by politicians and business leaders in China, Europe, and the United States over the past thirty years. Across the world, the rich have prospered while workers can no longer afford to buy what they produce, have lost their jobs, or have been forced into higher levels of debt. In this thought‑provoking challenge to mainstream views, the authors provide a cohesive narrative that shows how the class wars of rising inequality are a threat to the global economy and international peace—and what we can do about it.
##3.5星吧,一开始讲国际贸易、资本流动、产业升级的逻辑和变迁部分言简意赅很好,能够提及一部分资本主义国家内部的阶级矛盾也很好,但核心问题是:1 政经不分家,只强调经济逻辑不解释背后的逻辑,无异于攻乎异端 2 世界范围内的不平等一字不提,导致企图实现的平衡依然是基于不平等和剥削的而非进步的和共赢的 3 提出的解决方案异想天开。可以说,讲矛盾的同一性和斗争性不错,但强调了矛盾的特殊性而没有找到矛盾的普遍性,另外主要矛盾抓得不好,导致对矛盾中的对抗理解不深刻,归根结底是缺乏唯物辩证的世界观。

评分 评分 评分##A deeply problematic book that evades the question of growth in developing countries, as well as the issue of demographics in the so-called surplus countries. It will lend intellectual gravitas to a lot of protectionist measures in the next administration.
