The US Economy Today provides an invaluable introduction to
American economic history since 1929. Its coverage includes the New
Deal, the post-war boom, "stagflation" in the 1970s, "Reaganomics",
the Clinton and Bush years, the 2008 - 2009 economic crisis and
President Obama's first hundred days. In addition, this volume
considers core contemporary economic policy debates and draws
conclusions about the strengths and weaknesses of the US economic
"model". It looks at the causes and consequences of inequality, the
extent to which there is economic mobility, and the impact of
globalization and foreign trade. This book will be essential
reading for those studying or teaching American economics, economic
history or politics and all those looking for a thorough and
comprehensive introduction to this area. -- .
