'Our economic success – indeed, our success in all things – can only be assured if we faithfully follow the Universal Laws of Life, the Laws which form the framework of the Universe and that hold it together.'A Golden Age Economy tells the incredible story of how and why we have an economy that does not work for 99% of people, and what was done after the economic crisis to bring unparalleled prosperity to all. It unravels a dark history that enables us to see clearly why the world has been designed to fail, so that nothing works; where there is poverty, wickedness and corruption, and where everything that once was pure has been perverted and poisoned by the power elite. It reveals the evil plans of the fallen ones and unearths many of the mind-blowing secrets they have used to enslave the world for thousands of years.The book offers workable solutions to the problems it identifies, whilst the author explains what we can do to create an economy that eradicates poverty and that will benefit everyone who multiplies their talents, without causing harm to each other or our planet. It is a blueprint to help a Golden Age economy manifest.This exposé is a must-read for those who have had enough of our present economic problems and who want someone to explain to them what needs to be done to put things right. It will also appeal to politicians who care about their constituents, students of economics and anyone who wants to know how to bring more abundance – material and otherwise – into their lives.

The 1960s were a turning point for postwar economic policy. They were the high point of along boom that ran from the end of the Second World War to the oil crisis in 1973. But they also saw the beginning of persistent and high levels of unemployment and inflation that have plagued the economy ever since. In this book, politicians, senior officials and well-known economists from several countries, including James Callaghan, Roy Jenkin, Robert Solow and Charles Kindleberger, discuss economic and social policy in the 1960s and its consequences.

A brief, up-to-date account of Italy's transformation from an agrarian state to an industrial powerhouse.

This book argues that the right-wing revolution in the United States has created deepening inequality and will lead to economic catastrophe. The author makes the case that over the past three decades the rich have confiscated wealth and income from the poor and middle class to a far greater extent than many realize, and he explores in detail important but commonly unmeasured dimensions of inequality. He also takes aim at the economics profession, criticising the analytical blinders that leave economists incapable of seeing the coming crisis.

The decades after World War II were a golden age across much of the world. It was a time of economic miracles, an era when steady jobs were easy to find and families could see their living standards improving year after year. And then, around 1973, the good times vanished. The world economy slumped badly, then settled into the slow, erratic growth that had been the norm before the war. The result was an era of anxiety, uncertainty, and political extremism that we are still grappling with today. In An Extraordinary Time, acclaimed economic historian Marc Levinson describes how the end of the postwar boom reverberated throughout the global economy, bringing energy shortages, financial crises, soaring unemployment, and a gnawing sense of insecurity. Politicians, suddenly unable to deliver the prosperity of years past, railed haplessly against currency speculators, oil sheikhs, and other forces they could not control. From Sweden to Southern California, citizens grew suspicious of their newly ineffective governments and rebelled against the high taxes needed to support social welfare programs enacted when coffers were flush. Almost everywhere, the pendulum swung to the right, bringing politicians like Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan to power. But their promise that deregulation, privatization, lower tax rates, and smaller government would restore economic security and robust growth proved unfounded. Although the guiding hand of the state could no longer deliver the steady economic performance the public had come to expect, free-market policies were equally unable to do so. The golden age would not come back again. A sweeping reappraisal of the last sixty years of world history, An Extraordinary Time forces us to come to terms with how little control we actually have over the economy.
