THE CONSOLATIONS OF ECONOMICS:HOW WE WILL ALL BENEFIT FROM THE NEW WORLD ORDER

Book ID/图书代码： 04560013B61972

English Summary/英文概要： A provocative and utterly positive book to explain what is happening in the world’s economy today, the shift in the balance of power and the best way to move forward: embracing the change and exploiting the opportunities presented by the growing global economic cake.
In contrary to the prevailing opinion, Gerard Lyons argues that all is not stagnation and decline for the West, far from it. A shift in the balance of economic and financial power from the West to the East has already begun. Over the next twenty years the world economy is likely to enjoy one of its strongest periods of growth ever.
‘Embrace change’ is a clear message of this book as the world economy is likely to not only get bigger but get better as well. The global economic cake will get bigger, and even countries that see their slice get smaller will receive more cake than ever before. Life expectancy will rise. Income standards will rise. Educational standards will rise.
But change can bring with it uncertainty and fear. There are risks: corruption, energy, water, environment, protectionism, population growth, strains on welfare systems in the West – but there are solutions to all of these. Vested interest groups, particularly in the West, will try to protect their domains. Thus it is important to have a sense of what is happening, and why.
In The Consolations of Economics, Lyons takes an objective look at the changing global economy and the shift in the balance of power, what is happening and what it means, and the challenges and opportunities it must face.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 當大部分人都對未來經濟抱持悲觀的看法，有一個不一樣的聲音值得我們好好聆聽。Gerard Lyons英國經濟學家身兼倫敦市場的財經顧問他大膽提出，全球經濟將擺脫長期的低迷，開始趨向成長，並且將有近20年的成長期，主要經濟市場將從西方平衡轉向東方，整體生活水平提升，教育及收入水平也會提升…不過他也提到儘管未來將變的更美好，但許多問題也將隨之而來帶來不確定性及恐懼，如：貪腐、能源、水、環保、貿易保護主義、人口成長等。總言之，挑戰是必然的，但可期待的成果將是甜美的。
