America's Failing Economy and the Rise of Ronald Reagan

More about the book

The breakdown of the Keynesian Revolution in the 1970s is explored through the lens of economic decline and political change. Eric Crouse delves into the era's economic literature, memoirs, and media to illustrate how stagflation challenged Keynesian policies and led to a shift in public opinion. The book highlights the debates between free-market and Keynesian economists and shows how Ronald Reagan's vision of small government reshaped American politics, marking a pivotal moment in economic history.
