The Economics of
Global Turbulence
with author
Robert Brenner
History, UCLA
and discussant
Richard Walker
Geography, UC Berkeley
Robert Brenner charts the turbulent post-war history of the global system and unearths the mechanisms of over-production and over-competition which lie behind its long-term crisis since the early 1970s, thereby demonstrating the thoroughly systematic factors behind wage repression, high unemployment and unequal development, and raising disturbing and far-reaching questions about its future trajectory.
