Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive history of America’s attempts to promote international development by exporting private enterprise, a story marked by frequent failure and occasional success. Foreign aid is a primary tool of US foreign policy, but direct financial support and ventures like the Peace Corps constitute just a sliver of the American global development pie. Since the 1940s, the United States has relied on the private sector to carry out its ambitions in the developing world. This is the first full account of what has worked and, more often, what has failed in efforts to export American-style capitalism. Ethan Kapstein draws on archival sources and his wide-ranging experience in international development to provide penetrating case studies from Latin America and East Asia to the former Soviet Union, Afghanistan, and Iraq. After WWII the Truman and Eisenhower administrations urged US companies to expand across the developing world. But corporations preferred advanced countries, and many developing nations, including Taiwan and South Korea, were cool to foreign investment. The Cold War made exporting capitalism more important than ever, even if that meant overthrowing foreign governments. The fall of the Soviet Union brought new opportunities as the United States promoted privatization and the bankrolling of local oligarchs. Following the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, the United States believed it had blank slates for building these economies, but ongoing conflict eroded such hopes. Kapstein’s sobering history shows that private enterprise is no substitute for foreign aid. Investors are often unwilling to put capital at risk in unstable countries. Only in settings with stable governments and diverse economic elites can private enterprise take root. These lessons are crucial as the United States challenges China for global influence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic marks the most significant, singular global disruption since World War II, with health, economic, political, and security implications that will ripple for years to come." -Global Trends 2040 (2021) Global Trends 2040-A More Contested World (2021), released by the US National Intelligence Council, is the latest report in its series of reports starting in 1997 about megatrends and the world's future. This report, strongly influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic, paints a bleak picture of the future and describes a contested, fragmented and turbulent world. It specifically discusses the four main trends that will shape tomorrow's world: - Demographics-by 2040, 1.4 billion people will be added mostly in Africa and South Asia. - Economics-increased government debt and concentrated economic power will escalate problems for the poor and middleclass. - Climate-a hotter world will increase water, food, and health insecurity. - Technology-the emergence of new technologies could both solve and cause problems for human life. Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.

Download or read book A Future for the American Economy written by and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1991-04 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American economy is filled with so many contradictions today that it foils the best prophecies and most sophisticated forecasts by economists. This book is about those contradictions and the directions the economy could take in the future. In particular, it is about the central contradiction: government control and market freedom. How this contradiction is resolved is important not only for the United States but ultimately for countries around the world. The main thesis of this book is that social factors--rather than purely economic factors--are at the root of the contradiction between market freedom and government control. The author argues that the way markets are socially organized is critical to their capacity for operating independent of government controls. In essence, the social organization of the private economy is the key to the free market system. The economy can function more productively and humanely if efforts are made to reduce state controls and create a market system that is socially self-regulated. Important first steps in this direction are readily observable. The author evaluates two important trends in corporate self-management--worker participation and co-ownership--presenting evidence that these trends are both in the corporate self-interest and in the public interest. Self-regulation is beginning at the intercorporate level, where firms compete and collaborate profitably in trade associations. New cooperative associations of small firms are shown to out-compete conglomerates through value-adding partnerships that utilize information technology and require the establishment of cooperative norms. Self-regulation is advanced through social investment, the allocation of capital by combining ethical and economic criteria. Over $450 billion is now being invested with ethical guidelines, suggesting that a balance of social and economic factors will be a vital part of investment practice in the future. The author suggests that if the United States wants to retain a vital economy at home, it must carefully examine the advantages of the social organization of world finance and encourage the power of world markets to regulate themselves without destroying local and national economies.

Download or read book Where the Jobs Are written by John Dearie and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-08-28 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to ending America's jobs emergency by accelerating the true engine of job creation—start-ups Four years after the end of the Great Recession, 23 million Americans remain unemployed, underemployed, or have left the workforce discouraged. Even worse, Washington policymakers seem out of ideas. Where the Jobs Are: Entrepreneurship and the Soul of the American Economy shows how America can restore its great job-creation machine. Recent research has demonstrated that virtually all net new job creation in the United States over the past thirty years has come from businesses less than a year old—true "start-ups." Start-up businesses create an average of three million new jobs each year, while existing businesses of any size or age shed a net average of about one million jobs annually. Unfortunately, the vital signs of America's job-creating entrepreneurial economy are flashing red alert. After remaining remarkably consistent for decades, the rate of new business formation has declined significant in recent years, and the number of new jobs created by new firms is also falling. In Where the Jobs Are, the authors recount the findings of a remarkable summer they spent traveling the country to meet and conduct roundtables with entrepreneurs in a dozen cities. More than 200 entrepreneurs participated—explaining in specific and vividly personal terms the issues, frustrations, and obstacles that are undermining their efforts to launch new businesses, expand existing young firms, and create jobs. Those obstacles include a dangerously underperforming education system, self-defeating immigration policies that thwart the attraction and retention of the world's best talent, access to capital difficulties, a mounting regulatory burden, unnecessary tax complexity, and severe Washington-produced economic uncertainty. Explains how start-ups are different from existing businesses, large or small, and why they represent the engine of job creation Reveals how policymakers' failure to understand the unique nature and needs of start-ups has undermined efforts to stimulate the economy following the Great Recession Presents a detailed, innovative, and uniquely credible 30-point policy agenda based on what America's job creators said they urgently need Engaging and informative, Where the Jobs Are reveals with unprecedented precision and clarity the major obstacles undermining the fragile economic recovery, and provides a vitally important game plan to unleash the job-creating capacity of the entrepreneurial economy and put a beleaguered nation back to work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collaboration between the public and private sectors helped the U.S. economy recover from its last period of economic malaise, and similar collaboration is needed today, according to a key participant in the 1980s–1990s competitiveness movement. In Building the Next American Century, Kent H. Hughes describes that movement, beginning with the conditions that stimulated it: stagflation in the early 1970s, declines in manufactured exports, and challenges from German and Japanese manufacturers. The United States responded with monetary and fiscal reform, technological innovation, and formation of a culture of lifelong learning. Although a great deal of leadership came from government, a new sense of partnership with the private sector and its leaders was crucial. Hughes attributes much of the national prosperity of the late 1990s to contributions from the private sectors. Hughes argues that a twenty-first-century competitiveness strategy with a system-wide approach to innovation, learning, and global engagement can meet today's challenges, even in the demanding environment shaped by national security concerns after 9/11.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jennifer Granholm was the two-term governor of Michigan, a state synonymous with manufacturing during a financial crisis that threatened to put all America's major car companies into bankruptcy. The immediate and knock-on effects were catastrophic. Granholm's grand plans for education reform, economic revitalization, clean energy, and infrastructure development were blitzed by a perfect economic storm. Granholm was a determined and undefeated governor, who enjoyed close access to the White House at critical moments (Granholm stood in for Sarah Palin during Joe Biden's debate preparation), and her account offers a front row seat on the effects of the crisis. Ultimately, her story is a model of hope. She hauls Michigan towards unprecedented private-public partnerships, forged in the chaos of financial freefall, built on new technologies that promise to revolutionize not only the century-old auto industry but Michigan's entire manufacturing base. They offer the potential for a remarkable recovery not just for her state, but for American industry nationwide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CAN AMERICA WIN ITS ECONOMIC FUTURE? "YES," says the Architect of Inclusive Competitiveness (r), Johnathan M. Holifield. In this groundbreaking book - an Innovation Economy leader, civil rights advocate and former NFL athlete - Johnathan shines a bright light on shifting demographic trends in the United States and the dramatic impact this will have on our economic future. Inside these pages you'll learn the potential pitfalls ahead, as well as the extraordinary opportunities for shared socio-economic prosperity. Although the economic narrative of the 20th century served America well, it will not - indeed, it cannot - meet the needs of the 21st century. Calling for "All Hands On Deck," this book lays out an exciting way forward for America to win the future. Johnathan presents a compelling model for a new economic narrative and action framework for leaders in business, government, technology, education, philanthropy and the community, and also shows how important it is and will be to include disconnected Americans - women, Blacks, Hispanics and rural populations - if our country is to maintain its position of global economic leadership. This book is essential reading for anyone concerned about the socio-economic future of the U.S. What the experts are saying: "Brilliant! Unlike any other book written on economic development, this one encapsulates the challenges and opportunities of the nation through the lens of economic inclusion and competitiveness ideals. Johnathan has provided America a Rosetta Stone that will unleash America's untapped economic prowess..." JAY W ILLIAMS, FORMER U.S. ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF COMMERCE FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT "With a fresh voice, Holifield clearly identifies the economic imperative of our time. Prescribing a realignment of underserved community priorities to incorporate economic competitiveness, his restructuring framework is perceptive, coherent, and transcends political affiliations..." MICHAEL SCHREIBER, CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER, ROBERT F. KENNEDY HUMAN RIGHTS "In his new book, "The Future Economy and Inclusive Competitiveness," Johnathan Holifield presents a powerful vision for how the United States can sustain economic growth and wealth creation well in to the future. His vision is based on a compelling modern view of the wealth of nations. In Holifield's view, the wealth of nations is bound up in the interconnectedness of the knowhow, implementable ideas, and information networks of the various ethnic and racial groups and individuals in the economy. He argues that the opportunity for increased economic growth and wealth generation for the United States is presented by the "demographic shift", the so-called browning of America." The key to opening the door to this opportunity is for the private and public sectors to embrace and engage strategies of economic inclusion. Simply put, Holifield argues that the size and robustness of the future US economy is a matter of best practices in a market place of inclusion that stimulates economic competitiveness. Holifield's powerful insight for how economic inclusion can define the future for the US economy is truly a must read." RONALD A. JOHNSON, PhDPRESIDENT, CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY

Download or read book The Economics of World War I written by Stephen Broadberry and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-09-29 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique volume offers a definitive new history of European economies at war from 1914 to 1918. It studies how European economies mobilised for war, how existing economic institutions stood up under the strain, how economic development influenced outcomes and how wartime experience influenced post-war economic growth. Leading international experts provide the first systematic comparison of economies at war between 1914 and 1918 based on the best available data for Britain, Germany, France, Russia, the USA, Italy, Turkey, Austria-Hungary and the Netherlands. The editors' overview draws some stark lessons about the role of economic development, the importance of markets and the damage done by nationalism and protectionism. A companion volume to the acclaimed The Economics of World War II, this is a major contribution to our understanding of total war.
