How the West Was Lost: Fifty Years of Economic Folly- and the Stark Choices Ahead

In How the West Was Lost, the New York Times bestselling author Dambisa Moyo offers a bold account of the decline of the West€™s economic supremacy. She examines how the West€™s flawed financial decisions have resulted in an economic and geopolitical seesaw that is now poised to tip in favor of the emerging world, especially China. Amid the hype of China€™s rise, however, the most important story of our generation is being pushed aside: America is not just in economic decline, but on course to become the biggest welfare state in the history of the West. The real danger is a thome, Moyo claims. While some countries €“ such as Germany and Sweden €“ have deliberately engineered and financed welfare states, the United States risks turning itself into a bloated welfare state not because of ideology or a larger vision of economic justice, but out of economic desperation and short-sighted policymaking.
