After The New Economy by Doug Henwood

Doug Henwood scrutinizes the "news economy" of the 1990s and questions whether it lives up to the grand claims of being unimaginably productive and freed of antique logic.
"What's appealing about economist-provocateur Doug Henwood's After the New Economy is its combination of starchy financial analysis and hip, punk rock snarkiness. . . After reading this brilliant book, it's hard to resist his playful but serious enthusiasm." —San Francisco Bay Guardian

"Takes a skeptical look at the concept of 'globalization,'while also challenging some of the dogmas of the so-called anti-globalization movement. An indispensable book." —Newsday

"In most eyes, the New Economy deserves a good tattooing, and Left Business Observer editor Henwood slowly and excruciatingly applies the needle . . . painful enough to keep any new new economy in hiding for decades." —Kirkus Review
Doug Henwood is the editor of Left Business Observer and the author of Wall Street: How It Works and for Whom and After the New Economy (The New Press). He hosts the weekly radio show Behind the News on KPFA, Berkeley. He lives in New York City.
