Zusammenfassung: | From economist Anne Case and Nobel Prize winner Angus Deaton, a groundbreaking account of how the flaws in capitalism are fatal for America's working classDeaths of despair from suicide, drug overdose, and alcoholism are rising dramatically in the United States, claiming hundreds of thousands of American lives. Anne Case and Angus Deaton explain the overwhelming surge in these deaths and shed light on the social and economic forces that are making life harder for the working class. As the college educated become healthier and wealthier, adults without a degree are literally dying from pain and despair. Case and Deaton tie the crisis to the weakening position of labor, the growing power of corporations, and a rapacious health-care sector that redistributes working-class wages into the pockets of the wealthy. This critically important book paints a troubling portrait of the American dream in decline, and provides solutions that can rein in capitalism's excesses and make it work for everyone |

Mrz 2021) From economist Anne Case and Nobel Prize winner Angus Deaton, a groundbreaking account of how the flaws in capitalism are fatal for America's working classDeaths of despair from suicide, drug overdose, and alcoholism are rising dramatically in the United States, claiming hundreds of thousands of American lives. Anne Case and Angus Deaton explain the overwhelming surge in these deaths and shed light on the social and economic forces that are making life harder for the working class. As the college educated become healthier and wealthier, adults without a degree are literally dying from pain and despair. Case and Deaton tie the crisis to the weakening position of labor, the growing power of corporations, and a rapacious health-care sector that redistributes working-class wages into the pockets of the wealthy. This critically important book paints a troubling portrait of the American dream in decline, and provides solutions that can rein in capitalism's excesses and make it work for everyone In English BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Economics / General bisacsh Capitalism Social aspects United States Drug abuse Economic aspects United States Drugs Overdose United States History 21st century Suicide Economic aspects United States Wirtschaftspolitik (DE-588)4066493-4 gnd rswk-swf Kapitalismus (DE-588)4029577-1 gnd rswk-swf Suizid (DE-588)4054423-0 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftliche Lage (DE-588)4248362-1 gnd rswk-swf Arbeiterklasse (DE-588)4068799-5 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Arbeiterklasse (DE-588)4068799-5 s Suizid (DE-588)4054423-0 s Wirtschaftliche Lage (DE-588)4248362-1 s Kapitalismus (DE-588)4029577-1 s Wirtschaftspolitik (DE-588)4066493-4 s DE-604 Deaton, Angus 1945- (DE-588)122003020 aut https://doi.org/10.1515/9780691217062 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
