The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism

Neither our economic systems nor our political systems operate in a vacuum. In The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism, Martin Wolf, the chief economics commentator for the FT, explores how each system in the U.S. has undermined the other, chipping away at all but the wealthiest Americans’ stability and prosperity. He argues for an updated New Deal to spark investment and innovation and support stability and sustainability and embraces openness to the world economy. If you’re a Social Capital leader interested in the latest thinking on closing the wealth gap, this book is vital reading.
