Capitalism in America

release date: Oct 16, 2018
Capitalism in America
From the legendary former Fed Chairman and the acclaimed Economist writer and historian, the full, epic story of America''s evolution from a small patchwork of threadbare colonies to the most powerful engine of wealth and innovation the world has ever seen. Shortlisted for the 2018 Financial Times and McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award From even the start of his fabled career, Alan Greenspan was duly famous for his deep understanding of even the most arcane corners of the American economy, and his restless curiosity to know even more. To the extent possible, he has made a science of understanding how the US economy works almost as a living organism--how it grows and changes, surges and stalls. He has made a particular study of the question of productivity growth, at the heart of which is the riddle of innovation. Where does innovation come from, and how does it spread through a society? And why do some eras see the fruits of innovation spread more democratically, and others, including our own, see the opposite? In Capitalism in America, Greenspan distills a lifetime of grappling with these questions into a thrilling and profound master reckoning with the decisive drivers of the US economy over the course of its history. In partnership with the celebrated Economist journalist and historian Adrian Wooldridge, he unfolds a tale involving vast landscapes, titanic figures, triumphant breakthroughs, enlightenment ideals as well as terrible moral failings. Every crucial debate is here--from the role of slavery in the antebellum Southern economy to the real impact of FDR''s New Deal to America''s violent mood swings in its openness to global trade and its impact. But to read Capitalism in America is above all to be stirred deeply by the extraordinary productive energies unleashed by millions of ordinary Americans that have driven this country to unprecedented heights of power and prosperity. At heart, the authors argue, America''s genius has been its unique tolerance for the effects of creative destruction, the ceaseless churn of the old giving way to the new, driven by new people and new ideas. Often messy and painful, creative destruction has also lifted almost all Americans to standards of living unimaginable to even the wealthiest citizens of the world a few generations past. A sense of justice and human decency demands that those who bear the brunt of the pain of change be protected, but America has always accepted more pain for more gain, and its vaunted rise cannot otherwise be understood, or its challenges faced, without recognizing this legacy. For now, in our time, productivity growth has stalled again, stirring up the populist furies. There''s no better moment to apply the lessons of history to the most pressing question we face, that of whether the United States will preserve its preeminence, or see its leadership pass to other, inevitably less democratic powers.

The Map and the Territory 2.0
Like all of us, though few so visibly, Alan Greenspan was forced by the financial crisis of 2008 to question some fundamental assumptions about risk management and economic forecasting. No one with any meaningful role in economic decision making in the world saw beforehand the storm for what it was. How had our models so utterly failed us? To answer this question, Alan Greenspan embarked on a rigorous and far-reaching examination of how Homo economicus predicts the economic future, and how it can predict it better. Economic risk is a fact of life in every realm, from home to business to government at all levels. Whether we''re conscious of it or not, we make wagers on the future virtually every day, one way or another. Very often, however, we''re steering by out-of-date maps, when we''re not driven by factors entirely beyond our conscious control. The Map and the Territory smartly updates our forecasting conceptual grid. It integrates the history of economic prediction, the new work of behavioural economists and the fruits of the author''s own remarkable career to offer a thrillingly lucid and empirically based grounding in what we can know about economic forecasting and what we can''t. The book explores how culture is and isn''t destiny and probes what we can predict about the world''s biggest looming challenges, from debt and the reform of the welfare state to natural disasters in an age of global warming. Alan Greenspan''s approach, grounded in his trademark rigour, wisdom and unprecedented experience, offers a master class in economic decision making. ALAN GREENSPAN was born in 1926 and reared in the Washington Heights neighborhood of New York City. After studying the clarinet at Juilliard and working as a professional musician, he earned his B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. in economics from New York University. In 1954, he cofounded the economic consulting firm Townsend-Greenspan & Co. From 1974 to 1977, he served as chair of the Council of Economic Advisers under President Gerald Ford. In 1987, President Ronald Reagan appointed him chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, a position he held until his retirement in 2006. He is the author of the number one International bestseller The Age of Turbulence.

New Challenges for Monetary Policy

New Challenges for Monetary Policy
After two decades of successfully restoring price stability in much of the world economy, central banks begin the next millennium facing a new set of challenges. One key task is how to conduct monetary policy in an era of price stability. Clearly, policy-makers would like inflation to remain subdued. But, how should monetary policy procedures be designed to ensure that inflation does not reappear as a serious policy problem? Another important question is whether central banks enjoy greater operational flexibility or face new constraints in an environment of low inflation. On the one hand, operating in a low-inflation environment may give central banks greater leeway to address short-run economic problems without compromising long-run price stability. On the other hand, monetary policy implementation may become more difficult as nominal interest rates approach zero. Recent crises in financial markets around the world pose an additional set of challenges for policy-makers. Indeed, preserving global financial stability and dealing with extreme asset price and exchange rate movements have taken on greater urgency in many recent policy discussions.

Changing Capital Markets

Changing Capital Markets
Changes in the structure of financial markets and institutions can have profound implications for the operation and effectiveness of monetary policy. One of the most significant developments in financial markets in recent years is the growing prominence of capital markets. In many countries, financial intermediation is increasingly carried out directly in capital or securities markets rather than through banks and other traditional intermediaries. In addition, reduced barriers to capital mobility have increased the linkages among financial markets worldwide.To explore the implications of these financial market developments, the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City sponsored a symposium on "Changing Capital Markets: Implications for Monetary Policy" at Jackson Hole, Wyoming, on August 19-21, 1993.We hope these proceedings of the symposium will promote public understanding of the issues discussed and inspire further study of the implications of financial market changes.

Capitalismo na América

Capitalismo na América
Um livro do lendário ex-presidente do Fed e do aclamado historiador e jornalista da Economist. A história épica e completa da evolução dos Estados Unidos: de uma pequena colcha de retalhos de colônias maltrapilhas até se tornar a mais poderosa máquina de riqueza e inovação que o mundo já viu. Em Capitalismo na América: Uma história, Alan Greenspan (ex-presidente do Conselho do Federal Reserve) e Adrian Wooldridge (célebre historiador e jornalista da Economist) analisam o desenvolvimento do capitalismo norte-americano. Com um texto acessível, a história contada por eles envolve as vastas paisagens do país, figuras titânicas, descobertas triunfantes, sucessos impensáveis e terríveis falhas morais de grandes líderes. O que há de mais crucial no debate sobre a evolução dos Estados Unidos está neste Capitalismo na América: do papel da escravidão na economia sul-americana pré-guerra, passando pelo impacto real do New Deal de Roosevelt até as maiores mudanças ocorridas no país ao se abrir para o comércio global. No momento atual, em que o crescimento da produtividade parou novamente, provocando as fúrias populistas, resta saber se os Estados Unidos preservarão sua preeminência ou se verão sua liderança passar para outros poderes, inevitavelmente menos democráticos. Parece ser, portanto, o melhor momento para aplicar as lições da história a fim de compreender os desafios a serem enfrentados.

Cuốn sách là dự báo có một không hai của Alan Greenspan về bản chất của thế giới mới (thế giới sau sự kiện 11/9/2001), được chắt lọc từ những trải nghiệm của chính tác giả khi làm việc trên cương vị chỉ huy nền kinh tế toàn cầu, trong thời gian dài và với ảnh hưởng lớn hơn bất cứ nhân vật còn sống nào. Mở đầu bằng câu chuyện của buổi sáng 11/9/2001, sau đó là những dòng hồi tưởng lại thời thơ ấu, nối tiếp là hành trình cuộc đời đầy dấu ấn của ông trong suốt 18 năm là Chủ tịch Cục Dự trữ Liên bang (1987-2006), một giai đoạn diễn ra sự thay đổi mang tính bước ngoặt mà các bạn sẽ được biết đến trong cuốn sách này. Ngay sau sự kiện 11/9/2001, trong năm thứ 14 trên cương vị Chủ tịch Cục dự trữ Liên bang, Alan Greenspan đã tham gia vào một nỗ lực tập thể rất thầm lặng nhằm bảo đảm cho nước Mỹ không rơi vào sự sụp đổ kinh tế, kéo theo sự khủng hoảng của cả thế giới. Chúng ta có lý do để lo sợ về kịch bản tồi tệ nhất: sự sụp đổ của thị trường chứng khoán vào tháng 10/1987, cuộc khủng hoảng thực sự đầu tiên trong thời gian ông giữ cương vị Chủ tịch Fed, diễn ra chỉ vài tuần sau khi ông nhậm chức, đã đẩy nước Mỹ tới gần sử đóng băng hệ thống tài chính và gây ra hoảng loạn thực sự về tài chính. Tuy nhiên, điều đáng nói nhất đối với nền kinh tế sau sự kiện 11/9 là… đã không có cuộc khủng hoảng nào xảy ra. Nguy cơ gây ra một cú sốc lớn đối với hệ thống tài chính đã bị hấp thụ nhanh một cách đáng ngạc nhiên. Ông nghĩ đúng là chúng ta đang sống trong một thế giới mới, không phải vừa mới xảy ra nhưng cũng chưa kết thúc. Cuốn sách Kỷ nguyên hỗn loạn là dự báo có một không hai của Alan Greespan về bản chất của thế giới mới này, được chắt lọc từ những trải nghiệm của chính ông khi làm việc trên cương vị chỉ huy nền kinh tế toàn cầu, trong thời gian dài, và với ảnh hưởng lớn hơn bất cứ nhân vật còn sống nào. Ông bắt đầu câu chuyện từ buổi sáng 11/9/2001, sau đó hồi tưởng lại thời thơ ấu và đưa người đọc theo hành trình cuộc đời đầy dấu ấn của ông trong hơn 18 năm là Chủ tịch Cục Dự trữ Liên bang (1987 – 2006) một giai đoạn diễn ra sự thay đổi mang tính bước ngoặt. Alan Greenspan kể lại câu chuyện cuộc đời ông với ý nghĩ ban đầu là phải trung hực với một giai đoạn lịch sử đáng nhớ mà ông đã trải nghiệm và đóng một vai trò quan trọng. Nhưng một mục tiêu nữa của ông là dẫn dắt người đọc đi theo con đường học hỏi mà ông đã trải qua, qua đó làm cho người đọc nắm bắt được những đánh giá của ông về động lực chủ yếu chi phối các sự kiện thế giới. Trong phần thứ hai của cuốn sách, sau khi đưa chúng ta trở về thế giới thực tại và trang bị cho chúng ta các khái niệm để tiếp tục đi theo phân tích của ông, Tiến sỹ Greenspan bắt đầu một chuyến hành trình tới tương lai của nền kinh tế toàn cầu. Ông đưa ra những nguyên tắc chung của tăng trưởng kinh tế, đào sâu các sự kiện cụ thể về nền tảng của các nước và khu vực chủ chốt của thế giới, đồng thời giải thích xu thế của toàn cầu hoá trong thời gian tới. Được chắt lọc từ kiến thức và trí tuệ tích luỹ cả đời người để đưa ra đánh giá xuất sắc với một thế giới quan mạch lạc, Kỹ nguyên hỗn loạn sẽ trở thành di sản trui thức cá nhân của Alan Greenspan.

La Era de las Turbulencias
In the immediate aftermath of September 11, 21, in his fourteenth year as Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, Alan Greenspan took part in a very quiet collective effort to ensure that America didn''t experience an economic meltdown, taking the rest of the world with it. There was good reason to fear the worst: the stock market crash of October 1987, his first major crisis as Federal Reserve Chairman, coming just weeks after he assumed control, had come much closer than is even today generally known to freezing the financial system and triggering a genuine financial panic. But the most remarkable thing that happened to the economy after 9/11 was...nothing. What in an earlier day would have meant a crippling shock to the system was absorbed astonishingly quickly.

Alan Greenspan fut le président charismatique de l''institution la plus importante de l''économie américaine, la Fed (Federal Reserve Board), sous les présidences de Bonald Reagan, George II. W.
