具体描述
From world-renowned economist Paul Collier, a candid diagnosis of the failures of capitalism and a pragmatic and realistic vision for how we can repair it.
Deep new rifts are tearing apart the fabric of the United States and other Western societies: thriving cities versus rural counties, the highly skilled elite versus the less educated, wealthy versus developing countries. As these divides deepen, we have lost the sense of ethical obligation to others that was crucial to the rise of post-war social democracy. So far these rifts have been answered only by the revivalist ideologies of populism and socialism, leading to the seismic upheavals of Trump, Brexit, and the return of the far-right in Germany. We have heard many critiques of capitalism but no one has laid out a realistic way to fix it, until now.
In a passionate and polemical book, celebrated economist Paul Collier outlines brilliantly original and ethical ways of healing these rifts—economic, social and cultural—with the cool head of pragmatism, rather than the fervor of ideological revivalism. He reveals how he has personally lived across these three divides, moving from working-class Sheffield to hyper-competitive Oxford, and working between Britain and Africa, and acknowledges some of the failings of his profession.
Drawing on his own solutions as well as ideas from some of the world’s most distinguished social scientists, he shows us how to save capitalism from itself—and free ourselves from the intellectual baggage of the twentieth century.

评分##（1）切中要害的提出了问题，但是解决方案介绍的过于草率。（2）作者显然是李光耀的支持者，提到的主要政策建议跟新加坡的政策基本一致，但是适用到大国的可行性没提到。（3）提出的问题里，中国除了政治两极化以外全都没拉下，作者也把中国也定义为资本主义
评分从比尔盖茨的博客看到的推荐。提出的问题没啥问题，但是解决方案倒是有种站着说话不腰疼的感觉。自己虽然不属于作者所说的WEIRD（Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, And Democratic），但还是属于他想要遏制的high-skilled & immigrant群体。看的时候内心想法： 自己学的这么努力，一部分原因不就是因为想和那些曾经嘲笑我的less-educated的初高中本科同学远一点么。
评分##we need to leave behind the limitations of ideologies and create policy rooted in pragmatism.
