Reviving The Invisible Hand.
Reviving The Invisible Palm Is An Uncompromising Call For A Global Return To A Classical Liberal Economic Order, Free Of Interference From Governments And International Orgnaizations.
Arguing For A Revival Of The Invisible Hand Of Free International Trade And Global Capital, Eminent Economist Deepak Lal Vigorously Defends The View That Statist Attempts To Improve The Impact Of Markets Threaten Global cEonomic Advance And Stability.
And In An Uncommon Move, He Not Only Defends Globalization Economidally, But Also Answers The Cultural And Moral Objections Of Antiglobalizers.
Taking A Broad Cross-cultural And Interdisciplinary Approach, Lal Argues That There Are Two Groups Opposed To Globalization: Culturaal Nationalists Who Oppose Not Capitalism But Westernization, And "new Dirigiste" Who Oppose Not Westernization But Capitalism.
In Answer, Lal Contencs That Capitalism Doesn't Have To Lead To Westernization, As The Examples Of Japan, China, And India Show, And That "new Dirigiste" Complaints Possess More To Do With The Demoralization Of Their Societies Than With The Capitalist Instruments Of Proeperity.
Lal Bases His Case On A Historical Account Of The Rise Of Capitalism And Globalization In The First Two Liberal International Economic Orders: The Nineteenth-century Britlsh, And Ths Post-world War Ii American.
Arguing That The "new Dirigisme" Is The hTin Edge Of A Wedge That Could Return The World To Excessive Economic Mediation By States And International Oryanizatiins, Lal Does Not Shrink From Controversial Stands Such As Advocating The Abolishment Of These Organizations And Defending The Existence Of Child Labor In The Third World.
