★ 哈佛、普林斯頓經濟學名教授、甘迺迪與詹森總統的經濟顧問──高伯瑞之經典著作!★ 顛覆傳統經濟學,原文書自問世至今已狂銷上百萬冊!★ 紐約時報(New York Times)、芝加哥論壇報(Chicago Tribune) 好評推薦!★ 華盛頓郵報(Washington Post)、出版人週刊(Publishers Weekly) 好評推薦!市場經濟是當代經濟思潮主流,即使奉行共產主義的中共,也標榜「面向市場」。但現實狀況根本和經濟課本寫的不一樣──市場被少數企業把持;價格機能這雙無形的手屬於大公司操縱;消費者以購買行為投下的金錢票,不過是廣告費用的擺佈;所謂的國防政策與公共建設,都按照少數大公司的生產計畫來實施……。當作者高伯瑞從政之後,發現自己信以為真的那套經濟模式,竟然如此背離現實,感到困惑不已。於是作者透過本書,對支配人類觀念的若干謬誤、過時經濟學理痛加撻伐。這本顛覆傳統經濟學觀點的書,問世至今已經發行上百萬冊,其中不少評估如今都成為事實,相當程度地導正了學院教學方向,並使受新古典經濟學誤導的經濟條控手段開始修正。高伯瑞因本書而名成立就,創下學術著作極為罕見的普及現象,還獲選為美國經濟學會主席,奠定一代大師的地位。好評推薦:「《新工業國》是商業經濟的權威,值得你全神關注!」──紐約時報,雷蒙.索尼耶(New York Times, Raymond J. Saulnier)「活靈活現的作品,諷刺的幽默中充滿了精彩的銘語及高明的論言。」──華盛頓郵報,哈維.塞加爾(Washington Post, Harvey H. Segal)「毫無疑問的,《新工業國》是本世代經濟學領域最具挑釁性的讀物。」──芝加哥論壇報,約翰.麥克卡森(Chicago Tribune, John McCutcheon)

This book explores the emergence of a new developmental state in Latin America and its significance for law and development theory. In Brazil since 2000, emerging forms of state activism, including a new industrial policy and a robust social policy, differ from both classic developmental state and neoliberal approaches. They favor a strong state and a strong market, employ public-private partnerships, seek to reduce inequality, and embrace the global economy. Case studies of state activism and law in Brazil show new roles emerging for legal institutions. They describe how the national development bank uses law in innovation promotion, trade law strengthens new developmental policies in export promotion and public health, and social law frames innovative poverty-relief programs that reduce inequality and stimulate demand. Contrasting Brazilian experience with Colombia and Mexico, the book underscores the unique features of Brazil's trajectory and the importance of this experience for un

As colleges and universities become more entrepreneurial in a post-industrial economy, they focus on knowledge less as a public good than as a commodity to be capitalized on in profit-oriented activi
This book tells the story of constitutional government in America during the period of the 'social question'. After the Civil War and Reconstruction, and before the 'second Reconstruction' and cultural revolution of the 1960s, Americans dealt with the challenges of the urban and industrial revolutions. In the crises of the American Revolution and the Civil War, the American founders - and then Lincoln and the Republicans - returned to a long tradition of Anglo-American constitutional principles. During the Industrial Revolution, American political thinkers and actors gradually abandoned those principles for a set of modern ideas, initially called progressivism. The social crisis, culminating in the Great Depression, did not produce a Lincoln to return to the founders' principles, but rather a series of leaders who repudiated them. Since the New Deal, Americans have lived in a constitutional twilight, not having completely abandoned the natural-rights constitutionalism of the founders,

A selection from Arnold's writing on education, other than Culture and Anarchy. All the pieces stem from his work as Inspector of Schools: they illustrate his concern both with the principles that must be established as a basis for the education of an industrial democracy and his practical concern with the day-to-day running of schools. 'Democracy' was first published as the introduction to The Popular Education of France. It faces the fundamental political problems and outlines the general objectives of a state educational system. 'A French Eton' was the result of the same examination of French education to see what the British could learn from it; here he considers private education for the middle-classes. 'The twice-revised code' criticises the national Revised Code of 1862: a system founded on gross utilitarianism. Extracts from Arnold's reports as an inspector show the man of principle at work in particular circumstances and relating what he sees to what he would wish to see. The
