At the end of World War II, America had all the money, and all the power. Now, after the Great Crash of 2008, America is cash poor. In The End of Influence , economists Stephen S .Cohen and J. Bradford DeLong argue that this loss of liquid capital will have grave consequences for our standing in the world. An essential read for business executives and connoisseurs of world politics alike, The End of Influence tells us what we can do to maintain stability in the world.
