The Commanding Heights: The Battle for the World Economy

(六集电视纪录片,中文字幕由版主编辑)

“制高点-世界经济之战”是普利策纪实文学奖得主丹尼尔.耶尔金教授的一部财经巨著,被西方媒体誉为我们这个时代经济制度的编年史,对包括中国在内的世界各国的经济改革都具有极高的指导意义。“制高点”通过对大量历史人物和历史事件的生动叙述为我们绘制了一幅从政府到市场演变过程的全景图。
  20世纪80年代是全球改革的年代,在西方,撒切尔和里根以激进变革的方式结束了英美国家对市场严格管制,政府撤出了管理经济的制高点,从此,以竞争和开放的自由市场经济体制主导西方主流的经济学家的制高点。在东方,邓小平所推行的渐进式经济改革创造性把社会主义和市场经济的概念结合起来,探寻政府和市场的边界,平稳的在全球经济一体化的过程中,为中国造就了21世纪的经济奇迹。一个世纪,人们一直争论究竟哪种经济模式让人类真正受益是市场还是政府主导?目前 ,许多力量正推动着从国家控制到市场控制的转变。然而,从根本上说,这种转变还需要信仰和观念的重塑,走向对市场更大的信心。
  为您讲述一个世纪来政府和市场纠葛的故事,讲述思想进化斗争的故事,以及其中的历史风云人物传奇。

The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Prize joins a leading expert on the global economy to present an incisive narrative of the risks and opportunities that are emerging as the balance of power shifts around the world between governments and markets -- and the battle over globalization comes front and center.

A brilliant narrative history, The Commanding Heights is about the most powerful economic forces at work in the world today, and about the people and the ideas that are shaping the future. Across the globe, it has become increasingly accepted dogma that economic activities should be dominated by market forces, not political concerns. With chapters on Europe, the US, Britain, the Third World, the Arab States, Asia, China, India, Latin America, and the former communist countries, Yergin and Stanislaw provide an incisive overview of the state of the economy, and of the battles between governments and markets in each region. Now updated throughout and with two new chapters, The Commanding Heights explains a revolution which is unfolding before our very eyes.

The Commanding Heights: The Battle for the World Economy is a book by Daniel Yerginand Joseph Stanislaw first published as The Commanding Heights: The Battle Between Government and the Marketplace That Is Remaking the Modern World in 1998. In 2002, it was adapted as a documentary of the same title and later released on DVD.
