Rewriting the Rules of the European Economy

The Nobel Prize-winning economist, in partnership with a leading progressive European think tank, presents a bold new economic platform to restore prosperity in Europe.

Europe is in crisis. Sluggish economic growth, income stagnation, and recession have led to severe political and social consequences. The problems of today s Europe can be traced to the rewriting of the "rules of the economic game" that has taken place over several decades under the influence of neoliberalism. If Europe is to return to the innovative and dynamic economy it once was, with shared prosperity, social solidarity and justice, the rules must be rewritten. With the Foundation for European Progressive Studies, Joseph Stiglitz lays out comprehensive programmes and policies designed to relieve the suffering of Europeans and restore a prosperous and equitable European Union.
