Article Abstract:
James K. Galbraith, an economist noted for his iconoclastic streak, is described as the most provocative and eloquent voice in 21st-century economics. Galbraith argues vociferously against the ideas that the best way to fight inflation is to raise interest rates, that higher minimum wages will lead to unemployment, and that rising pay inequality is acceptable and due to technological change.
