‘‘AnalyticaLly brilliant; crystal clear writing; forensic in its investigation; entertaining and erudite. If you want to know what the alternative to austerity is, there is no better guide. Danny Dorling, University of Oxford “John Weeks has been one of the most powerful critics of mainstream neoclassical economics and of neoliberal economic policies in the last few decades. His analyses are razor sharp and his criticisms unsparing, but he uses them to propose ways to build a solidaristic economy and a compassionate society. На-Joon Chang, University of Cambridge “Governments shouLd spend no more than their tax income, Most people in Europe and North America accept this statement as simple common sense. It matches the deeply engrained economic metaphors that dominate public discussion, from living within your means to balancing the budget - all necessary, or so conventional wisdom holds, to avoid the dangers of debt, taxation and financial ruin. This book shows how these homely metaphors constitute the “debt delusion : a set of plausible-sounding yet false ideas that have been used to justify damaging austerity policies. John Weeks debunks these myths, explaining both the true story behind public spending, taxation and debt and the real function of these in the management of our economies, He demonstrates that disputes about public finances are not primarily technical matters best left to specialists and experts, as many politicians would have us believe. They are fundamental questions about our political priorities. Requiring no prior economic knowledge, this is an
ideal primer for anyone wishing to cut through the rhetoric and misinformation that dominate political debates on economics and become an informed citizen. John Weeks is Coordinator of the London-based Progressive Economy Forum and Emeritus Professor of Development Studies at SOAS, University of London.
