Reviews

Thomas Aubrey is one of the most perceptive thinkers both about the limits of classical liberalism and how we might breathe new life into liberal values in order to solve today's most pressing public policy challenges. Patrick Diamond, Queen Mary University of London This book is very good at highlighting the current - significant - shortcomings of the liberal economic model as I have now believed for more than a decade, and it presents evidence and articulates the case much better than I have so far found. Trying to get more countries with larger populations to be more Scandinavian would seem to be a helpful path for humanity. Jim O'Neill, Ex Commercial Secretary to the UK Treasury Caught between the right to happiness and the freedom to avoid starvation, liberalism appears crushed by the weight of its own contradictions. This excellent book promotes its fundamental values against authoritarian detractors. Werner Bonefeld, University of York


“I liked Thomas Aubrey’s short book. It could alternatively be called, Confronting the weaknesses of the Anglo-Saxon economic model. But it does this in a thoughtful way, contrasting the utilitarian tradition of UK/US economic policy with (West) Germany and the “underlying ordoliberal principle of power dispersion.”” The Enlightened Economist
