The Global Class War (Wiley) is a provocative new book by the Economic
Policy Institute's founding president and Distinguished Fellow, Jeff
Faux. In it, Faux shows how America's leaders have become part of a
global elite – the Party of Davos – that is undercutting the living
standards of working people here and abroad. He concludes with an
original step-by-step strategy for making the global economy
accountable to its ordinary citizens, beginning in North America.
[gee, didn't a certain Democratic Senator and former Presidential
candidate attend the recent Davos shindig?]
Publishers Weekly calls the book: "Incisive." William Grieder: "Really
important." Robert Kuttner: "This book should transform public
discourse in America."
[the usual suspects. I doubt that Kuttner is right, if indeed he was
making a prediction.]
