What does it mean to be a nation when money, goods, and services know no borders? What skills will be the most valuable in the coming century? And how can our country best ensure that all its citizen have a share in the new global economy? Robert B. Reich, the widely respected and bestselling author of The Next American Frontier and The Resurgent Liberal, defines the real challenge facing the United States in the 21st century in this trail-blazing book. Original, readable, and vastly informed, The Work of Nations is certain to set a standard for the next generation of policy-makers. 0aEconomic forecastingzUnited States. 4aPrevisión económicazEstados Unidos 0aCapitalismzUnited States. 4aCapitalismo zEstados Unidos 0aInternational economic relations. 4aRelaciones económicas internacionales 6aDivision internationale du travail. 4aDivisión internacional del trabajo. 4aColección René Villarreal (CRV) 0aUnited StatesxEconomic conditionsy1981-2001. 4aEstados Unidos xCondiciones económicasy1981-20011 aReich, Robert B. q(Robert Bernard), d1946-423Publisher descriptionuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/description/random048/91050223.html
