In scenarios that range from the optimistic to the guardedly gloomy, these thinkers consider such topics as the transformation of work and wages, the continuing increase in inequality, the economic rise of China and India, the endlessly repeating cycle of crisis and (projected) recovery, the benefits of technology, the economic consequences of political extremism, and the long-range effects of climate change. 0aEconomic developmentxForecasting. 02local94aPrint books.1 aPalacios-Huerta, Ignacio.  2lcccBOOKS  00102lcc4070aAUbAUcGENd2016-12-17l0oHD82 .I2985 2013pAU0000000007711r2016-12-17 00:00:00v135.00w2016-12-17yBOOKS
