This book explores the American freemarket economy, espoused by
Alan Greenspan, the longtime chairman of the Federal Reserve,
through decoding the discourse of economics. Combining an analysis
of both economics and language, the legacy of Reaganomics is
examined in relation to economic inequality, fiscal policy, public
discourse, and the moral economy. How notions of easy money,
conspicuous consumption, and unlimited economic growth were
harnessed to justify the Free Market revolution is also discussed.
This book aims to highlight the drivers of modern inequality and
economic distress. It will be relevant to students and researchers
interested in the history of economic thought and economic
discourse.
