La catástrofe perfecta. Ignacio Ramonet. Icaria Editorial. Una vez sometidos a los rigores de la crisis, es fácil olvidarse de sus motivos y centrarse únicamente en luchar contra sus consecuencias. Pero no podemos olvidar que esta crisis tiene unos claros antecedentes, unos culpables con nombres y apellidos, y unas políticas económicas que han llevado al mundo a una situación de la cual no saldrá indemne. El nuevo libro del periodista Ignacio Ramonet se encarga de ello, de recordar quién y cuándo empezó a tejer este sistema que ahora ha colapsado: desde los teóricos del neoliberalismo, tan laureados y arrogantes, hasta las sucesivas crisis que han desembocado en la Crisis del siglo, y por supuesto, sus terribles consecuencias alrededor del mundo. Ramonet recorre los últimos treinta años a vista de pájaro para dar cuenta de los sucesivos fracasos y negligencias de un sistema económico injusto que no se acomoda fácilmente a los sistemas democráticos y que ahora ha estallado. | Translation - English
La catástrofe perfecta (The Perfect Disaster). Ignacio Ramonet. Icaria Editorial. In the midst of the financial crisis, it’s easy to forget what caused it and focus solely on how best to counter its effects: but we must not forget that it is not without precedent, that there are known culprits, and concrete economic policies which have placed the world in a situation from which it cannot escape unscathed. This new book by the journalist Ignacio Ramonet will not let us forget. It traces the origins of the system which has now collapsed: from the celebrated and arrogant theories of neoliberalism, to the successive crises which culminated in the Crisis of the century, as well as commenting on the serious global repercussions. Ramonet provides a birds-eye view of the last thirty years that highlights the negligence and successive failures of an unfair system that is not easily reconciled with democracy, and that is now broken. |
