The growing levels of income inequality, an explosion of global
financial flows, and a worldwide decline of economic growth have
combined to challenge accepted economic wisdom. Utilizing a
heterodox approach, Pablo G. Bortz provides a fresh look for
understanding the interaction between these three factors while
identifying challenges and possible alternatives for an
expansionary and progressive economic policy. Reviewing several
schools of thought, Inequality, Growth and 'Hot' Money explores the
risks generated by capital flows and the limitations they impose on
progressive economic policies. Professor Bortz then provides
instruments and alternatives to pursue an expansionary and
equalitarian program, including theoretical contributions to enrich
heterodox and progressive economics. Standout features of this book
include a review of the challenges that financial flows pose for
developing countries; a redefinition of the role of capital
controls; a policy approach that separates interest rate policies
from a broader credit policy; and a rejection of the negative
relationship between a more egalitarian income distribution and
sustained economic expansion. Expanding the Kaleckian approach to
include financial flows, this accessible introduction to heterodox
growth models will be appreciated by graduate students and
committed heterodox economists. Research departments at official
institutions such as central banks may also be interested,
specifically in the book's models and policy prescription.
