The market economy.

Summary The 4th cover states: "The market is more than ever an inescapable reality, which weighs on our social organization and on our daily life. Does this mean that the market, by itself, provides the keys to the future? To answer this question, Roger Guesnerie takes on the challenge of drawing up an objective and enlightening panorama of market economies. He looks at their construction over the course of history, at the intellectual debates and political controversies that their operation, in both calm periods and periods of crisis, has provoked. He then examines some of the challenges facing market economies in the twenty-first century."
