9781847081322: False Dawn: The Delusions Of Global Capitalism

Synopsis

In the midst of the current financial crisis, John Gray revisits his brilliant polemic against the forces of global capitalism and deregulation. Written over ten years ago, False Dawn is a remarkably prescient book, sharply criticizing the greed and unsustainable economic practices which have proved to be the seeds of a worldwide recession. In a substantial new chapter, Gray considers how the economic landscape has shifted in a decade, and asks the crucial question: where do we go from here?

Review

'The central message is that we are going to hell in a handcart, as free markets rip up established communities. The idea of a world of liberal democratic and prosperous states on the American model is, he argues, a fantasy...Gray is right' Andrew Marr, Independent 'False Dawn is a powerful analysis of the deepening instability of global capitalism. It should be read by all who are concerned about the future of the world economy' George Soros 'This book is teeming with arguments and ideas...it is hard to put down, and economic liberals would do well to test their ideas against it.' Economist 'We needed a powerful challenge to the simple-minded advocates of globalization. Now we have one. A compelling, important and original book' Will Hutton
