UN GIRO COPERNICANO: LA APORTACIÓN MÁS AUDAZ, RELEVANTE Y POLÉMICA DE LOS ÚLTIMOS TIEMPOS AL DEBATE ECONÓMICO.

«Una fuente indispensable de claridad moral. Las herramientas que necesitamos desesperadamente para construir un futuro seguro para todos. Léanlo, y denle uso.» -Naomi Klein

El déficit importa, pero no de la manera en que nos han enseñado a pensar.

Sostener la sanidad pública, crear puestos de trabajo, dotarnos de infraestructuras modernas, luchar contra la desigualdad, prevenir el apocalipsis climático..., cualquier objetivo ambicioso inevitablemente se topa con la queja de cómo encontrar el dinero para financiar esos proyectos, enraizada en una serie de mitos sobre el déficit que nos obstaculizan de manera sistemática.

Basándose en las ideas de la Teoría Monetaria Moderna (TMM), un nuevo enfoque de la economía que ha tomado al mundo por sorpresa, Stephanie Kelton, una de las principales voces de esta corriente, articula una argumentación rigurosa, accesible y convincente en contra de la visión ortodoxa de las finanzas públicas, que asume erróneamente que los gobiernos deben elaborar sus presupuestos como quien administra un hogar, que el déficit perjudicará a las siguientes generaciones y desplazará la inversión privada, o que los subsidios llevarán a una grave crisis fiscal.

Frente a eso, Kelton propone una forma novedosa de entender el dinero, los impuestos y el papel crucial del déficit presupuestario, así como el modo en que podemos usar los recursos de manera responsable para maximizar nuestro potencial.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


A New York Times Bestseller

The leading thinker and most visible public advocate of modern monetary theory -- the freshest and most important idea about economics in decades -- delivers a radically different, bold, new understanding for how to build a just and prosperous society.


Stephanie Kelton's brilliant exploration of modern monetary theory (MMT) dramatically changes our understanding of how we can best deal with crucial issues ranging from poverty and inequality to creating jobs, expanding health care coverage, climate change, and building resilient infrastructure. Any ambitious proposal, however, inevitably runs into the buzz saw of how to find the money to pay for it, rooted in myths about deficits that are hobbling us as a country.


Kelton busts through the myths that prevent us from taking action: that the federal government should budget like a household, that deficits will harm the next generation, crowd out private investment, and undermine long-term growth, and that entitlements are propelling us toward a grave fiscal crisis.


MMT, as Kelton shows, shifts the terrain from narrow budgetary questions to one of broader economic and social benefits. With its important new ways of understanding money, taxes, and the critical role of deficit spending, MMT redefines how to responsibly use our resources so that we can maximize our potential as a society. MMT gives us the power to imagine a new politics and a new economy and move from a narrative of scarcity to one of opportunity.

An Essential
Format: Paperback
I've created PowerPoints for executives in major corporations and national non-profits for years now, and this is one of the first books I suggest anyone who needs to create their own PowerPoint look to. Beyond Bullet points is accessable enough that the novice PowerPoint user can understand what's going on and use the lessons in his or her next presentation; it's also detailed and challenging enough that even an old salt like me can find things to learn and do. Don't be another person who stands on stage reading their PowerPoint, and don't let reading your slides distract the audience from your presentation; follow the suggestions in this book and wow your audience.

Bad book for SOA exam, but oh well.
Format: Paperback
While required by Society of Actuaries as the textbook for Short Term Actuarial Models exam, I could not recommend this textbook for any other purposes. Written by two Canadian actuaries, a lot of terms and explanations used in this textbook cannot be transferred into US P&C insurance. It fails to explains insurance's purpose and products effectively and as an intro book with unnecessary sentences to deliver personal thoughts. It is also a mess in following sections on ratemaking and reserving. I cannot sense a flow from this book that guides readers in an approachable manner. Overall, author compromises the size AND the quality.
