ANNOTATION

Richard Bingham studies government policy's effect on economic progress.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

The proper role of government in the U.S. economy has been the subject of ideological dispute for generations. In some recent variations the debate has ranged from purist advocacy of government "hands-off" to calls for protectionist policies and aggressive support for American businesses struggling in a cut-throat world market.

What is the reality? This question animates Richard Bingham's provocative study of industrial policy American-style, as practiced (if not preached) by administration after administration. Readable and enlivened with case studies, this book is accessible and of interest to anyone who follows business-government relations in the United States and abroad.

FROM THE CRITICS
