Lester Carl Thurow (1938–2016) taught briefly at Harvard, where he was awarded a doctorate in 1964, but spent almost his entire academic career at MIT, where he served for six years as dean of the Sloan School of Management. After an early emphasis on theoretical and empirical publications in the leading academic journals, he shifted his focus in the later 1970s, directing his work at a lay audience and writing books and popular articles in support of his campaign for a more just, egalitarian and economically secure United States. In the process, Thurow generated a wide range of critical responses. I focus on several of his better-known and best-selling books, including Generating Inequality (1975), The Zero-Sum Society (1980) and The Future of Capitalism (1996).

摘要

Lester Carl Thurow (1938–2016) taught briefly at Harvard, where he was awarded a doctorate in 1964, but spent almost his entire academic career at MIT, where he served for six years as dean of the Sloan School of Management. After an early emphasis on theoretical and empirical publications in the leading academic journals, he shifted his focus in the later 1970s, directing his work at a lay audience and writing books and popular articles in support of his campaign for a more just, egalitarian and economically secure United States. In the process, Thurow generated a wide range of critical responses. I focus on several of his better-known and best-selling books, including Generating Inequality (1975), The Zero-Sum Society (1980) and The Future of Capitalism (1996).
