Paper Dragons: China and the Next Crash
Autor Walden Belloen Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 aug 2021
Walden Bello traces our recent history of financial crises - from the bursting of Japan's 'bubble economy' in 1990 to Wall Street in 2008 - taking in their political and human ramifications such as rising inequality and environmental degradation. He not only predicts that China might be the site of the next crash, but that under neoliberalism this will simply keep happening. The only way that we can stop this cycle, Bello argues, is through a fundamental change in the ways that we organise: a shift to cooperative enterprise, respectful of the environment, and which fractures the twin legacies of imperialism and capitalism.
Insightful, erudite and passionate, Paper Dragons is a must-read for anyone wishing to prevent the next financial meltdown.

Recenzii
A stark warning about the vulnerable state of global financial markets from one of our most acute and prescient thinkers.
Startling, revelatory, brilliant! An astonishing exposé of the frightening economic details of this moment.
Walden Bello, in this terrifying new book, explains that, if major changes are not taken, the same set of circumstances - unregulated shadow banking, runaway financial speculation and an overheated real estate bubble - are poised to take down China's economy, and perhaps the world's with it. A very important book for this political moment.
A tour de force of past and future financial crises by the globe's most astute progressive political economist. Bello puts forward a comprehensive agenda to prevent the next crisis.
Walden Bello brilliantly explains how our global financial system still operates as a giant casino - with China now one of the most reckless gamblers. Read this book to learn how we can tame the global financial casino - before China and other reckless gamblers cause the next crash.
Crisply and clearly written, Paper Dragons demonstrates that: "Yes, it can happen here, again and again." Politicians and lawmakers everywhere had better get a grip on finance, now. Or watch out, World!
Walden Bello suggests that, while the next devastating crisis with global ramifications can strike any one of capitalism's many nodes, the immediate threat comes from Asian giant, China. The lesson? Reform of capitalism may be the immediate call, but in the final analysis we must transform how the system works and we live our lives.
Walden Bello shows how global capitalism remains structurally prone to financial crises. With clarity and conviction, Bello continues to explain reality lucidly and inspire progressive alternatives.
The question may not be if another crash will take place, but when and where will it start. Bello eschews pessimist fatalism, arguing for a broad programme of financial reforms integrated into a comprehensive programme of reforms of the real economy. Inspired and accessible . Wholeheartedly recommended!
In 2008, a U.S. housing bubble careened out of control and plunged the world into a gruesome global financial crisis. Bello brilliantly lays out the case that - unless we put effective checks in place - the next financial crisis will likely erupt in China.
In this volume, Walden Bello demonstrates that East and Southeast Asia has been the location of multiple financial crises, despite enjoying an international reputation as a group of successful globalizers.
Walden Bello is one of the rare truly global thinkers. A must-read for those seeking prevent the next financial meltdown.
Superb.
Walden Bello is one of the foremost analysts of global economics and politics of our time. He shows that the global economy is a ticking time bomb. Erudite and eloquent, this book could not be timelier. This is a must read.
Walden Bello argues that fragility remains within the system and points to China as the potential source of the world's next major economic crisis. He raises issues that citizens, policymakers, and financial players ignore at their peril.
