具體描述
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.

評分##（1）切中要害的提齣瞭問題，但是解決方案介紹的過於草率。（2）作者顯然是李光耀的支持者，提到的主要政策建議跟新加坡的政策基本一緻，但是適用到大國的可行性沒提到。（3）提齣的問題裏，中國除瞭政治兩極化以外全都沒拉下，作者也把中國也定義為資本主義
評分##Blinkist掃過。資本主義發展至今導緻貧富階級愈發分化，資本主義體製在不斷分裂並且明顯更有利於上層群體。social democracy has left us with a morally bankrupt capitalism. 然後作者宣傳an ethical capitalism foster social maternalism through pragmatic policies. Agglomeration. 就是少說意識形態大傢多實乾，鼓勵傢庭們在一起互幫互助，全球團結，建立有針對性的全球機構，重新的財富分配（高收入地區高稅收），對大公司要多徵稅或者建立更多Public interest firms. 方法都比較理想主義而且也沒什麼新招。但好像前麵對麵現有體製批評還行。
評分##Not an entry-level book for readers who have little knowledge about social science and economy. Some of its ideas are really hard to follow, and personally I don’t believe this book has anything to do with its title, It’s more like a portrait of current conundrums related to western society, and how ppl can get them right.

評分從比爾蓋茨的博客看到的推薦。提齣的問題沒啥問題，但是解決方案倒是有種站著說話不腰疼的感覺。自己雖然不屬於作者所說的WEIRD（Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, And Democratic），但還是屬於他想要遏製的high-skilled & immigrant群體。看的時候內心想法： 自己學的這麼努力，一部分原因不就是因為想和那些曾經嘲笑我的less-educated的初高中本科同學遠一點麼。
