Omschrijving
A vital exploration of capitalism and the benefits it brings to global society as a whole.
Norberg's paean of praise for the market economy is compelling. With masterful command of statistics, he demonstrates just how much the global switch away from state domination.... has led us to as rapid a decline in levels of absolute poverty as has been witnessed in history.
[The Capitalist Manifesto] is a timely reminder of the benefits of free and open trade.
A joyful counterblast... a book packed with vivid examples... decisive.
Norberg's elegant manifesto has much to commend it
The Capitalist Manifesto is essential reading for everyone that wants to understand global capitalism. You may not agree with everything in the book, but you have to understand and confront the arguments Norberg makes. This is a book that people will be debating not just in a year's time, but a decade's time.
Clear, colourful and convincing, marshalling evidence from a range of eras and civilisations...The author is often amusing as well as illuminating.
Johan Norberg's superb book demonstrates, with hundreds of examples, how openness has been the key to the success of our species over 10,000 years and is the secret of prosperity and peace today.
No person or society is smart enough or wise enough or noble enough to solve the wicked problems of life by themselves. With clarity and grace, Johan Norberg reminds us that openness to things and ideas from others is the only route to well-being.
A prophet of anti-pessimism.
Johan Norberg is a historian, lecturer and commentator. He is a senior fellow at the Cato Institute in Washington DC and his books have been translated into twenty-five languages. His books include the international bestseller Progress and Open, which was an Economist book of the year. Norberg regularly writes for publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Reason and HuffPost.
