Interpreting macroeconomics as a zero-sum game, Thurow proposes that the American economy will not solve its most trenchant problems-inflation, slow economic growth, the environment-until the political economy can support, in theory and in practice, the idea that certain members of society will have to bear the brunt of taxation and other government-sponsored economic actions. As relevant today as it was twenty years ago, The Zero-Sum Society offers a classic set of recommendations about the best way to balance government stewardship of the economy and the free-market aspirations of upwardly mobile Americans.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"Zero-Sum Society | Lester C Thurow | Hardcover | 0465093841 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks F 1763707","offer_id":49287644643480,"sku":"1763707","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/51ODv6PsFKS.jpg?v=1781893811","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/zero-sum-society","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
