Failure to Adjust: How Americans Got Left Behind in the Global Economy
In his newly released book “Failure to Adjust: How Americans Got Left Behind in the Global Economy,” Council on Foreign Relations Bernard L. Schwartz Senior Fellow Edward Alden explains why the political consensus in support of trade liberalization has collapsed, and how to correct the course. The U.S. has contributed more than any other nation to writing the rules that created the competitive global economy of today, helping support stronger growth in much of the world. Yet successive U.S. administrations have done far too little to help Americans succeed under those rules. Join Edward Alden as he explains more and talks about his newly released book with GPS Acting Dean Gordon Hanson, followed by a short question and answer portion and reception.
