Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summary of the Market Situation in Boston: The City Planning Board, Boston, Mass.; Preliminary Report of the Market Advisory Committee, June 1915 Ordered, That the City Planning Board, the Finance Com mission and the Superintendent of Public Markets, through his Honor the Mayor, be requested to investigate and report to the City Council as to the advisability and cost of establish ing and maintaining suitable public markets at central locations in the various sections of the city. As this question of public markets is one which has been prominent in the public thought for some years but has never been carefully studied, it seemed to the City Planning Board that the first thing to be done, in order to give an intelligent answer to the question pro pounded, was to make a careful study of the situation in Boston, the possible means of saving money to the consumer, and the type of market necessary to bring about such saving.

Download or read book Government s Place in the Market written by Eliot Spitzer and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2011-04-18 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his first book, the former New York governor and current CNN cohost offers a manifesto on the economy and the public interest. As New York State Attorney General from 1998 to 2006, Eliot Spitzer successfully pursued corporate crime, including stock price inflation, securities fraud, and predatory lending practices. Drawing on those experiences, in this book Spitzer considers when and how the government should intervene in the workings of the market. The 2009 American bank bailout, he argues, was the wrong way: it understandably turned government intervention into a flashpoint for public disgust because it socialized risk, privatized benefit, and left standing institutions too big to fail, incompetent regulators, and deficient corporate governance. That's unfortunate, because good regulatory policy, he claims, can make markets and firms work efficiently, equitably, and in service of fundamental public values. Spitzer lays out the right reasons for government intervention in the market: to guarantee transparency, to overcome market failures, and to guard our core values against the market's unfair biases such as racism. With specific proposals to serve those ends—from improving corporate governance to making firms responsible for their own risky behavior—he offers a much-needed blueprint for the proper role of government in the market. Finally, taking account of regulatory changes since the crash of 2008, he suggests how to rebuild public trust in government so real change is possible. Responses to Spitzer by Sarah Binder, Andrew Gelman, and John Sides, Dean Baker, and Robert Johnson, raise issues of politics, ideology, and policy.

Download or read book The Power of Market Fundamentalism written by Fred Block and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is it about free-market ideas that give them tenacious staying power in the face of such manifest failures as persistent unemployment, widening inequality, and the severe financial crises that have stressed Western economies over the past forty years? Fred Block and Margaret Somers extend the work of the great political economist Karl Polanyi to explain why these ideas have revived from disrepute in the wake of the Great Depression and World War II, to become the dominant economic ideology of our time. Polanyi contends that the free market championed by market liberals never actually existed. While markets are essential to enable individual choice, they cannot be self-regulating because they require ongoing state action. Furthermore, they cannot by themselves provide such necessities of social existence as education, health care, social and personal security, and the right to earn a livelihood. When these public goods are subjected to market principles, social life is threatened and major crises ensue. Despite these theoretical flaws, market principles are powerfully seductive because they promise to diminish the role of politics in civic and social life. Because politics entails coercion and unsatisfying compromises among groups with deep conflicts, the wish to narrow its scope is understandable. But like Marx's theory that communism will lead to a "withering away of the State," the ideology that free markets can replace government is just as utopian and dangerous.
