Description
"What causes rich countries to lose their way? Symptoms of decline are all around us today: slowing growth, crushing debts, increasing inequality, aging populations, antisocial behavior. But what exactly has gone wrong? The answer, Niall Ferguson argues... is that our institutions--the intricate frameworks within which a society can flourish or fail--are degenerating"--Dust cover flap.
