THE THIRD PILLAR ; THE REVIVAL OF COMMUNITY IN A POLARISED WORLD
Raghuram Rajan
- William Collins
- 20 Février 2020
- 9780008276300
SHORTLISTED FOR THE FINANCIAL TIMES AND MCKINSEY BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2019 From one of the most important economic thinkers of our time, a brilliant and far-seeing analysis of the current populist backlash against globalization and how revitalising community can save liberal market democracy. Raghuram Rajan, author of the 2010 FT & Goldman-Sachs Book of the Year Fault Lines , has an unparalleled vantage point onto the social and economic consequences of globalization and their ultimate effect on politics and society. In The Third Pillar he offers up a magnificent big-picture framework for understanding how three key forces - the economy, society, and the state - interact, why things begin to break down, and how we can find our way back to a more secure and stable plane. The ''third pillar'' of the title is society. Economists all too often understand their field as the relationship between the market and government, and leave social issues for other people. That''s not just myopic, Rajan argues; it''s dangerous. All economics is actually socioeconomics - all markets are embedded in a web of human relations, values and norms. As he shows, throughout history, technological innovations have ripped the market out of old webs and led to violent backlashes, and to what we now call populism. Eventually, a new equilibrium is reached, but it can be ugly and messy, especially if done wrong. Right now, we''re doing it wrong. As markets scale up, government scales up with it, concentrating economic and political power in flourishing central hubs and leaving the periphery to decompose, figuratively and even literally. Instead, Rajan offers a way to rethink the relationship between the market and civil society and argues for a return to strengthening and empowering local communities as an antidote to growing despair and unrest. The Third Pillar is a masterpiece of explication, a book that will be a classic of its kind for its offering of a wise, authoritative and humane explanation of the forces that have wrought such a sea change in our lives. His ultimate argument that decision-making has to be watered at the grass roots or our democracy will continue to wither is sure to be both provocative and agenda-setting across the world.

Crise : au-delà de l'économie

Pour Raghuram Rajan, la crise financière, débutée en 2007 et que nous subissons encore, n'est pas qu'une crise de plus, dont l'épicentre serait l'immobilier et les flux de capitaux étrangers.
Les racines de cette crise dévastatrice sont plus profondes, plus larges, et à chercher dans des traditions culturelles et politiques solidement ancrées.
De fait, ce n'est pas l'économie qui est responsable des lignes de faille les plus profondes, mais la politique. Aussi, après nous avoir aidés à comprendre pourquoi cela avait mal tourné, Rajan définit-il les choix politiques difficiles qu'il faudra prendre pour s'attaquer aux vraies causes de cette crise, et éviter l'avènement de crises futures.
Une grande partie de ce travail est donc à effectuer en dehors du secteur financier : Comment les grands pays à travers le monde peuvent-ils se sevrer de leur dépendance aux exportations ?
Comment peuvent-ils développer leur secteur financier afin de répartir efficacement ressources et risques ? Comment les États-Unis peuvent-ils réformer leur système financier pour éviter de ravager une fois de plus l'économie mondiale ?.
Il est certes plus facile de crier haro sur des « vilains » (banquiers avides, régulateurs complaisants) que de nous remettre collectivement en question. C'est pourtant ce que nous devons faire : en comprenant les causes cachées de la crise et leurs liens avec nos façons de vivre, nous (dirigeants américains, gouvernements étrangers, économistes, mais aussi citoyens du monde) éviterons qu'elle se reproduise.

One of the few people who predicted the economic crisis argues that, in addition to bankers taking risks, serious flaws in the economy are also to blame for the recession and warns that a more devastating crisis is around the corner if the inherent problems are not fixed.
