"Economic Strength" as a book category encompasses works that analyze, explain, and prescribe how economies — at the national, regional, corporate, or household level — acquire, measure, and sustain the resources, institutions, and policies needed for prosperity and resilience. These books cover topics such as macroeconomic fundamentals (growth, fiscal and monetary policy), development and industrial strategy, labor markets and human capital, trade and investment, infrastructure and innovation, and the role of institutions and governance in enabling stable markets. They range from empirical case studies and historical narratives to policy prescriptions, practical guides for business and community leaders, and accessible overviews for general readers interested in economic security and competitive advantage. The unifying theme is an emphasis on the drivers of long-term capacity to produce wealth, weather shocks, and deliver broadly shared improvements in living standards.
