Branko Milanovic — Kate Raworth’s economics of miracles

Summary:
Review of Kate Raworth’s Doughnut economics: Seven ways to think like the 21st-century economist.  Good read. Is Kate Raworth being utopian? I would say that Kate Raworth's work is similar to Mariana Mazzucato's in that they both propose out of the box solutions to addressing contemporary challenges. They are significant in that they are starting points for reflection, inquiry, conversation and debate.  Raworth challenges the growth model of conventional economics and Mazzucato challenges the negative attitude toward government and its ability to influence the economy positively.  No one book is likely to have the answer or all the answers. We need to talk about this intelligently as a body politic. Milanovic makes some goods points. Global InequalityKate Raworth’s
