Why Global Development is Succeeding
Economist Charles Kenny has a decidedly upbeat or pragmatic as the case may be take on the global economy and America's growth potential. Conventional wisdom often says global development has failed. Not so, responds Kenny. He has the data to back up this view. Yes, we still face serious challenges. But we've made unprecedented progress in the last 60 years. And we know how to take that progress even farther.
Kenny's most recent book, "The Upside of Down: Why the Rise of the Rest is Good for the West," provides a refreshing antidote to prophecies of American decline, as well as surprising and persuasive insights about the economics of globalization.
