Description

"Urgent work, by the foremost champion of 'progressive capitalism.' " --The New Yorker

An authoritative account of the dangers of unfettered markets and monied politics, People, Power, and Profits shows us an America in crisis. The American people, however, are far from powerless, and Joseph Stiglitz provides an alternative path forward through his vision of progressive capitalism, with a comprehensive set of political and economic changes.

Reviews

The policy shop of every 2020 Democratic candidate for president would be wise to pore over People, Power, and Profits and cherry-pick its best ideas. --New York Times

Stiglitz offers a comprehensive list of easy-to-understand progressive remedies that will find favor with many readers.--Library Journal

[Joseph Stiglitz] is an insanely great economist.--Paul Krugman

Along with Krugman and Thomas Piketty, Stiglitz forms a triumvirate of leading economic critics of global capitalism, 21st century-style.--Andrew Anthony, Guardian
