Die Roaring Nineties by Joseph Stiglitz
A New History of the World's Most Prosperous Decade
A brisk, critical account of the 1990s American economic boom that credits genuine productivity gains from information technology but argues the era’s prosperity was overstated and uneven, driven in large part by speculative financial bubbles, deregulation, and policy choices that disproportionately benefited the wealthy; it explains how lax oversight, flawed market assumptions, and corporate and financial excesses produced instability and rising inequality and contends that different public policies could have made growth broader and more sustainable.
