The latest New York Review of Books has a review of Paul Krugman's new book, Conscience of a Liberal, by our very own Michael Tomasky, who writes:
Krugman's version is well worth reading ... his embrace of the idea that politics rather than economics has created our present-day inequality gives us a sense of political agency. If politics created this mess, then better politics may be able to do something about it. Krugman suspects 'that the 2006 election wasn't an aberration, [and] that the US public is actually ready for something different - a new politics of equality.'
