"Lucid, deeply informed, and enlivened with striking illustrations, this penetrating study could be entitled 'Economics in the Real World.' Chang reveals the yawning gap between standard doctrines concerning economic development and what really has taken place from the origins of the industrial revolution until today. His incisive analysis shows how, and why, prescriptions based on reigning doctrines have caused severe harm, particularly to the most vulnerable and defenseless, and are likely to continue to do so."--Noam Chomsky Using irreverent wit, an engagingly personal style, and a battery of examples, Chang blasts holes in the "World I s Flat" orthodoxy of T homas Friedman and other liberal economists who argue that only unfettered capitalism and wide-open international trade can lift struggling nations out of poverty. On the contrary, Chang shows, today's economic superpowers--from the U .S. to Britain to his native Korea--all attained prosperity by shameless protectionism and government intervention in industry. We have conveniently forgotten this fact, telling ourselves a fairy tale about the magic of free trade and--via our proxies such as the World Bank, I nternational Monetary Fund, and World T rade Organization--ramming policies that suit ourselves down the throat of the developing world.

評分今天剛剛看完,覺得此書是本優秀的經濟類普及讀物。 書名直譯應該是“壞撒瑪乾人”。撒瑪乾源自聖裏的一個故事。這裏就不纍述瞭。感覺意義為“樂善好施的壞蛋”更有意思。怎麼壞蛋和樂善好施擺在一起瞭呢?其實這裏的壞蛋也好,樂善好施者也好,作者用它來指neo-liberals,也就...
