Subscribe to Bad Faith on Patreon to instantly unlock our full premium episode library: http://patreon.com/badfaithpodcast This abundance panel -- which been weeks in the making -- is well-timed: A new poll shows that voters prefer populist messaging to "abundance" messaging by a significant margin, throwing advocates of Abundance, a new book by Ezra Klein & Derek Thompson, into a tizzy. So what is "Abundance" anyway, & why has Left Twitter been so antagonistic to the ideology? Are pro-Abundance advocates like Klein, Thompson, and Matt Yglesias right when they say the left's critiques are only vibe-based, or is the left raising legitimate concerns about a corporate-backed, astro-turfed campaign intended to syphon off genuine populist anger? We've assembled the authors of three of the best abundance-critical op-eds to discuss: economist Isabella Weber, legal director at Open Markets Institute Sandeep Vaheesan, and former Rhode Island State Rep. Aaron Regunberg. It's the most comprehensive and specific explanation of why the left should reject the "abundance" framing you're likely to hear.

Critics on the Left have long attacked open markets and free trade agreements for exploiting the poor and undermining labor, while those on the Right complain that they unjustly penalize workers back home. In Open: The Progressive Case for Free Trade, Immigration, and Global Capital (Harvard University Press, 2019), Kimberly Clausing takes on old and new skeptics in her compelling case that open economies are actually a force for good. Turning to the data to separate substance from spin, she shows how international trade makes countries richer, raises living standards, benefits consumers, and brings nations together. At a time when borders are closing and the safety of global supply chains is being thrown into question, she outlines a clear agenda to manage globalization more effectively, presenting strategies to equip workers for a modern economy and establish a better partnership between labor and the business community. Kimberly Clausing holds the Eric M. Zolt Chair in Tax Law and Policy at the UCLA School of Law. During the first part of the Biden Administration, Clausing was the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Tax Analysis in the US Department of the Treasury, serving as the lead economist in the Office of Tax Policy. Prior to coming to UCLA, Clausing was the Thormund A. Miller and Walter Mintz Professor of Economics at Reed College. Professor Clausing is also a nonresident senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and a research associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research. She has worked on economic policy research with the International Monetary Fund, the Hamilton Project, the Brookings Institution, the Tax Policy Center, and the Center for American Progress. She has testified before the House Ways and Means Committee, the Senate Committee on Finance, the Senate Committee on the Budget, and the Joint Economic Committee. Professor Clausing received her B.A. from Carleton College in 1991 and her Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1996, both in economics. Other New Books Networks interviews on related themes include Yale economist Penny Goldberg, former Chief Economist of the World Bank, on The Unequal Effects of Globalization, Princeton economist Leah Boustan on how immigrants have contributed to and rapidly assimilated into US society, and University of Massachusetts economist Isabella Weber on China's process of integration into the world economy.

Chefredakteur Lukas Scholle erklärt das neu gegründete Wirtschaftsmagazin 'Surplus'.

Die neoliberale Politik, die die AfD stark gemacht hat, droht sich unter der kommenden Regierung noch zu verschärfen. Die antifaschistische Antwort wäre eine Wirtschaftspolitik, die die Menschen ermächtigt und ihnen die Hoffnung gibt, dass es auch wieder bergauf gehen kann. Artikel vom 21.

In dieser Folge sprechen Caspar Dohmen und Alexander Veit mit der Wirtschaftswissenschaftlerin Isabella Weber über ein Thema, das zuletzt politisch in den Hintergrund gerückt ist: Inflation.Während die Inflationsraten weltweit scheinbar sinken, bleibt der Druck durch hohe Lebenshaltungskosten für viele spürbar – besonders in den USA, wie die Wahl Donald Trumps zeigt. Doch welche Rolle wird Inflation in der nächsten Bundestagswahl spielen? Und welche wirtschaftspolitischen Ansätze gibt es, um mit hohen Preisen umzugehen?Isabella Weber ist bekannt für ihre Arbeit zur Wirtschaftspolitik in China und ihre Forderung nach einer „antifaschistischen Wirtschaftspolitik“. Außerdem war sie Mitglied der Gaspreiskommission in Deutschland.Table.Briefings - For better informed decisions.

Die Ampel ist Geschichte und wir stecken in einem Wirtschaftswahlkampf: Angesichts einer schwächelnden Konjunktur und Krisen in der Automobil- und Stahlindustrie setzt ein Teil der Parteien auf eine Wirtschaftswende, die Unternehmenssteuern sowie Arbeits- und Sozialkosten senken und so den Wirtschaftsstandort Deutschland stärken will. Doch kann es sein, dass diese Rezepte herzlich wenig mit den Ursachen dieser Wirtschaftsschwäche zu tun haben? Und wie müssten wir stattdessen gegensteuern? Die Ökonomin Isabella Weber etwa fordert angesichts des Wahlsiegs von Trump und mit Blick auf die AfD in Deutschland eine "antifaschistische Wirtschaftspolitik", die die Bedürfnisse der Vielen ins Zentrum stellt.

LdN405 Ampel am Ende, Trump erneut US-Präsident (Interview Isabella Weber, Ökonomin)

The economy has hit a hinge moment. For the past few years, inflation has been the big economic story — the fixation of economic policymakers, journalists and almost everyone who goes to the grocery store. But economists now largely see inflation as tamed. It's still a major political issue; the country continues to reel from years of rising prices, and there is a real affordability crisis. But that isn't all the next administration will have to deal with. So what does it mean to fight the next economic war rather than the last one?Jason Furman is an economics professor at Harvard and a former chair of the Council of Economic Advisers under Barack Obama. Furman has closely tracked the inflation crisis over the past few years, and he's deeply knowledgeable about how economic policy is made.In this conversation, we discuss why the inflation crisis upended the expectations of so many economists and what we've learned for the next time inflation strikes, what he expects to see with mortgage rates and the housing market, the upcoming fight over Donald Trump's expiring tax cuts, the good and the bad in Kamala Harris's housing policy and why there seems to be so little concern from either party about the ever-growing U.S. debt.Mentioned:“The Economic Theory Behind JD Vance's Populism” with Oren Cass on The Ezra Klein Show“Trump's Most Misunderstood Policy Proposal” by Oren Cass“In Defense of the Dismal Science” by Jason FurmanBook Recommendations:How the World Became Rich by Mark Koyama and Jared RubinThe Goodness Paradox by Richard WranghamThe Ladies' Paradise by Émile ZolaThoughts?

The Weekly Tradecast looks at how the global economy is evolving in a more fragmented world with special guest Isabella Weber, assistant professor of economics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Since 1964, when UN Trade and Development was created, the world has changed profoundly in response to many challenges and opportunities. Now, technology and climate change are major forces transforming our work, lives and futures. At the same time, a series of crises and conflicts are creating a greater sense of fragmentation. In June, we marked the 60th birthday of UN Trade and Development with the Global Leaders Forum. Heads of government, leading economists and other experts convened in Geneva to chart a new development course in a changing world. Listen in to special guest Isabella Weber for her perspective from the Global Leaders Forum on how we can better support trade and development while building global resilience in the midst of disruptions and difficulties.

When presidential candidate Kamala Harris proposed legislation to ban price gouging, we naturally thought to interview Isabella Weber, an associate professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Weber's paper on the subject lit up economic discussion in the wake of gas and food market disruptions caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Weber calls for governments to examine capping prices on certain staples, and amassing supplies to even out pricing. But is this prudent oversight of the markets, or a step down the road to central planning and scarcity?Soumaya Keynes writes a column each week for the Financial Times.

Was all this inflation really necessary? Our guest, economist Isabella Weber says no. In fact, she's been saying no since the Omicron variant was a thing. In 2021, at age 33, Weber wrote an article for The Guardian that tied inflation to corporate greed – calling out “an explosion of profits” as a central force in driving up prices. She was vilified online, and the establishment turned her into “the most hated woman in economics.”But history has proved Isabella Weber right, and the world's caught up to her thinking. Weber travelled to Toronto recently to receive the Broadbent Institute's 2024 Ellen Meiksins Wood Prize. She joined us at The Globe to talk about the tumultuous ride of the past four years, the historical impact of price controls, and the bittersweet taste of vindication. Also, Vass and Katrina lament the rising cost of deodorant.This is an encore presentation of an episode from our first season.

I den internationale debat er Isabella Weber blevet den nye progressive stjerne-økonom. Weber har udmærket sig ved både at skrive videnskabelige afhandlinger og blandet sig i den offentlige debat omkring bekæmpelse af inflationen. I denne uges Langsomme Samtaler taler hun med Rune Lykkeberg om sin bog “How China Escaped Shock Therapy”, som handler om hvordan Kina tog en anden vej end chok-terapien, da de skulle væk fra kommunismen og over til en økonomi, der tager det bedste fra kapitalismen - og undgår det værste. Bogen baserer sig på empiriske samtaler og blotlægger både fordelene og risici ved den kinesiske vej. Rigtig god fornøjelse.

The American people see through mainstream claims of “the greatest economy ever.” They are confronted by evidence to the contrary every day.Steve and his guest, economist Yeva Nersisyan, take a deep dive into the current US economy, looking at the repercussions of the high costs of education, healthcare, and housing.They discuss different perspectives on the causes of inflation and talk about Isabella Weber's work on “sellers' inflation” and its relationship to monopoly power. They argue that the drive for corporate profits, leading to abusive price-setting, has been the primary force behind inflation.They also talk about the effect of fiscal policy on income inequality, revealing politicians' contempt for the working class.Yeva Nersisyan is an associate professor of economics at Franklin and Marshall College in Lancaster, PA, and a research scholar at the Levy Economics Institute of Bard College.

Double episode! On Giovanni Arrighi's Adam Smith in Beijing.   [Patreon Tier II & III Exclusive]   We wrap up the 2023 syllabus by taking on the second half of Arrighi's book, in which he analyses the over-reach and decline of the US empire, and whether China's rise and role in world affairs presents a different model, one that might be more peaceful. We discuss: How important was the neo-cons' Project for a New American Century? What were the long-term consequences of the Iraq invasion? What do we make of Arrighi's theoretical account of imperialism and the tension between territorial and capitalistic logics? Did the USA represent a "world state" after WWII, and how did it fail? What is the world-historic meaning of China's development? Do we buy Arrighi's attempt at a Smithean vision of inter-civilizational harmony?

On this week's episode of Lever Time, producer Frank Cappello speaks with Labor Notes staff writer Luis Feliz Leon about why a potential autoworkers strike could be transformational for younger union members struggling under depressed wages and limited benefits.Luis has been reporting on the ground about the ongoing contract negotiations between the United Auto Workers union and the “Big Three” automakers — Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis (formerly known as Chrysler). Last Friday, 150,000 autoworkers voted overwhelmingly to strike if a deal isn't reached by the time their current contract expires on September 14. Under the new leadership of reformist president Shawn Fain, the union is ready to take action if their bold demands aren't met. In today's interview, Frank and Luis break down everything you need to know about the ongoing negotiations. Luis offers his perspective on the union's current strategy for exacting the best possible deal, and what a potential strike would mean for workers and the auto industry. He also breaks down how the union's former leadership gave away major concessions during the Great Recession, and why a new union dynamic is long overdue. A transcript of this episode is available here.Links: Fired-Up Auto Workers Are Ready to Battle the Big 3 (Labor Notes, 2023) UAW Reformers Just Won Control of the Union.

The debate over the causes of inflation is heating up and showing an important divide in the discipline of economics. Mainstream economists like Larry Summers blame it on rising wages and recommend interest rate hikes to cool the economy by raising unemployment. But other scholars, notably Isabella Weber of the University of Massachusetts, have a different theory: they argue inflation is due to price gauging made possible by the Covid emergency and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Weber's ideas, which are gaining traction, suggest the solution is price control.The possibility that establishment economics is losing its dominance over policy is making some economists angry. There's been a vicious backlash to Weber's work. To talk about the inflation debate and other examples of heterodox thinking on the rise, as well as the circling-the-wagon approach of the discipline, I talked to Marshall Steinbaum, an economist at the University of Utah and a Senior Fellow at the Jain Family Institute. On this episode of The Time of Monsters, we range widely over the discipline of economics and the unseemly hissy fit of many leading practitioners.

What does it all mean, and are the mainstream starting to change their tune? 

Earlier this year, Odd Lots talked about the idea of companies taking advantage of bottlenecks and other disruptions to raise their prices. Since then, the notion of this type of corporate-led inflation has burst into the public discourse with central bankers and politicians all taking a closer look. But how does this type of inflation differ from more traditional economic interpretations of prices, and what are the implications for monetary and economic policy? In this episode, we talk once again to Isabella Weber, the UMass-Amherst economics professor who dubbed this phenomenon "sellers' inflation" in a paper published earlier this year. She talks about how the way we think about inflation is changing and her own experience of seeing public attitudes shift in real time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Als Mitglied der von der Bundesregierung einberufenen Gaspreis-Kommission wurde Isabella Weber im Herbst 2022 international bekannt. Die 36-jährige aus Nürnberg stammende Wirtschaftsprofessorin gilt als Miterfinderin der sogenannten Gaspreisbremse.

Ein typischer Einkauf in der Schweiz kostet mittlerweile sechs Prozent mehr als noch vor zwei Jahren. Im internationalen Vergleich ist das ein moderater Preisanstieg. Für die Schweiz ist die Inflation allerdings sehr hoch. Wie lange geht das noch so weiter? | Wenn die Preise steigen und Lohn nicht mithält, bleibt Ende Monat weniger Geld übrig: Weniger Geld für ein schönes Konzert oder ein feines Essen mit Freundinnen im Restaurant. So gesehen wirkt die Inflation wie eine Steuer. Eine Steuer aber, zu der wir nie «Ja» gesagt haben an der Urne. | Was tut die Nationalbank gegen die hohe Inflation? | Wieso ist die Teuerung in der Schweiz viel tiefer als im Ausland? Und ist die Gier der Firmen tatsächlich die Ursache für die Inflation? Das und mehr erfahren Sie im neusten Geldcast Update. | Stichworte: Inflation, Teuerung, Kaufkraft, Preise, Greedflation, Isabella Weber.

Robert Misik im Gespräch mit Isabella Weber DAS GESPENST DER INFLATIONWie China der Schocktherapie entkam Nach dem Ende von Maos Herrschaft stand die politische Führung in China Ende der siebziger Jahre vor gewaltigen Problemen: Wie sollte sie das bankrotte Wirtschaftssystem neu erfinden? Wie eine galoppierende Inflation vermeiden, die als Schreckgespenst durch das Land spukte? Durch Schocktherapie oder schrittweise Reformen? Letztendlich obsiegten die Kräfte, die für einen staatlich gelenkten Wandel plädierten. Anders als Russland, das nach dem Zusammenbruch des Kommunismus in einen katastrophalen Abwärtsstrudel geriet, erlebte China einen beispiellosen Aufstieg. Isabella M. Weber, eine der bedeutendsten Ökonominnen ihrer Generation, zeichnet in ihrem hoch gelobten Buch die damaligen Debatten um die Neugestaltung des chinesischen Wirtschaftssystems minutiös nach und ordnet diese Diskussionen in die langen Traditionen des ökonomischen Denkens im Reich der Mitte und des Westens ein. Insbesondere zeigt sie, wie es gelang, die Inflation zu begrenzen. Chinas Weg zurück in die Weltwirtschaft, so Weber, ist nicht nur die Geschichte einer einzigartigen Transformation. Angesichts der Verwerfungen auf den Energiemärkten und der dramatisch gestiegenen Lebenshaltungskosten sind die Auseinandersetzungen um Preiskontrollen und andere staatliche Eingriffe zudem lehrreich für aktuelle Debatten. Isabella Weber, ÖkonominRobert Misik, Autor und Journalist Isabella M. Weber, geboren 1987 in Nürnberg, ist Professorin für Volkswirtschaftslehre an der University of Massachusetts Amherst. Einer breiten Öffentlichkeit wurde sie durch ihren (gemeinsam mit dem Volkswirt Sebastian Dullien) ins Gespräch gebrachten Vorschlag eines Gaspreisdeckels bekannt.

IMK-Direktor Sebastian Dullien blickt zurück auf die Debatten über die Gründe der Inflation und die Rolle des Staates in Zeiten multipler Krisen auf dem IMK Forum am 4. Mai.

Isabella Weber, author of How China Escaped Shock Therapy, on Chinese economic reform debates and how the country dodged post-Soviet-style collapse [reprise of a show from July 2021] The post How China avoided shock therapy appeared first on KPFA.

Unsere Gesellschaften sind heute einer Vielzahl von Krisen und Schocks ausgesetzt, die nur durch staatliches Handeln entschärft werden können. Insbesondere die Pandemie und die Inflation infolge des Ukraine-Kriegs zeigen, dass der Staat aktiv in die Märkte eingreifen muss, um die Bevölkerung zu schützen. Maßnahmen wie ein Gaspreisdeckel, der vielen im ökonomischen Mainstream vor Jahren noch undenkbar erschien, sind heute notwendig. Die Ökonomin und „Erfinderin des Gaspreisdeckels“ Isabella Weber hat sich in ihrem Buch „Das Gespenst der Inflation – Wie China der Schocktherapie entkam“ historische Konstellationen angeschaut, in der die Wirtschaft im Umbruch war, etwa den Übergang von der Kriegs- zur Nachkriegswirtschaft oder die Modernisierung der chinesischen Wirtschaft in den 80er und 90er Jahren. In all diesen Konstellationen spielen Preiskontrollen eine bedeutende Rolle. Was wir aus der chinesischen Geschichte lernen können, erklärt Isabella Weber bei Jacobin Talks.

Die Politökonomin Isabella Weber, geboren 1987, Professorin für Volkswirtschaftslehre an der University of Massachusetts Amherst/USA, ist die Erfinderin des EU-Gaspreisdeckels. Sie hält abgewogene staatliche Eingriffe in den Markt in schweren Krisenzeiten für sinnvoll; auch mit Blick auf die Inflation. Die jetzige Energiekrise in Europa mit Blick auf die nötige Energiewende sei so ein Fall: "Wir sollten dabei auch über Übergewinnsteuern bei den fossilen Energien nachdenken." Von Isabella Weber.

In economics, there tends to be two dominant ways of thinking about inflation. Either you agree with Milton Friedman, who described inflation as always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon (the result of too much money printing). Or you're more of a New Keynesian who thinks that higher prices are all about the relationship between demand and capacity. In a new paper inspired by Odd Lots and the series of disruptions that have rocked the economy since the global pandemic, UMass Amherst Economics Professor Isabella Weber describes a potential third way of thinking about inflation. She identifies systemically significant sources of inflation, or industries that could end up having a broader impact on a wide variety of prices. The hope is that by identifying these important sources of inflation early, policymakers can put in place measures to make sure price increases don't get out of hand. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Die Energiepreise stiegen bereits vor Putins Angriff auf die Ukraine, spätestens seit Kriegsbeginn gingen sie durch die Decke und wurden zum bedeutsamsten politischen Streitthema des Jahres 2022 in Deutschland. Im 30. WfA-Spezial spricht Ole mit Isabella Weber, die bereits wenige Wochen nach Kriegsbeginn einen Gaspreisdeckel forderte. Was unterscheidet einen Gaspreisdeckel von einer Gaspreisbremse? Wie ist die heutige Inflation zu erklären? Und wie können ökonomische Krisen in Zukunft früher erkannt werden? Darum geht es im 30. WfA-Spezial.

Intro: Monster break down of cross country postseason

The surge in gas costs in Europe threatens to impose massive pain on households and cripple energy-intensive heavy industry. So there has been a lot of urgency on the part of governments to figure out a way to ease the pain. Of course, when the problem is a scarcity of energy itself, you can't just throw money at the problem. You can't print more gas molecules. On this episode, we speak with Isabella Weber, economics professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, who has been serving on an independent government commission in Germany to formulate a plan to ease the burden. We discuss her work and how price controls in energy play out in practice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Im März sind die Preise in Deutschland um 7,3 Prozent gestiegen – so stark wie seit 40 Jahren nicht mehr. Überall in Deutschland flattern den Menschen höhere Gas- und Stromrechnungen ins Haus, auch Lebensmittel sollen bald viel teurer werden. Im Wirtschaftspodcast "Ist das eine Blase?" sprechen die Moderatoren Lisa Nienhaus und Jens Tönnesmann mit einem Verbraucherschützer und einer Ökonomin über die Frage: Wie kann man sich gegen die Inflation zur Wehr setzen? Philipp Wendt, Vorstand der Verbraucherzentrale Hessen, berichtet davon, dass viele Versorger die Preise rechtswidrig erhöht hätten. Manche hätten ihren Kunden sogar ganz gekündigt, sodass sie plötzlich in sehr viel teurere Tarife anderer Anbieter wechseln mussten. Wendt erklärt, wer sich nun wie wehren kann – und wer die höheren Preise akzeptieren muss. Außerdem berichtet er davon, wie die Verbraucherzentrale Hessen gegen den Anbieter Stromio vorgehen will, der Ende 2021 eine Vielzahl von Kunden vor die Tür gesetzt habe: "Wir werden Stromio verklagen." Die Ökonomin Isabella Weber warnt im Podcast davor, dass sich die Inflation "weiter enorm verschärfen wird" und dass das Entlastungspaket der Bundesregierung daran auch nichts ändern werde. Weber hat schon vor einiger Zeit eine radikale Idee in die Debatte zurückgebracht hat: staatliche Preiskontrollen, etwa für den Gaspreis. Preiskontrollen hat es zum Beispiel nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg in den USA, aber auch in Deutschland gegeben sowie in China beim Übergang vom Sozialismus in die Marktwirtschaft. Auf ihren Vorschlag hin hat Weber viel Widerspruch bekommen. Im Podcast diskutiert sie mit den Moderatoren darüber, warum gedeckelte Preise solch ein Tabu in der Ökonomie sind, warum sie oft mehr Chaos anrichten, als Hilfe zu bieten – und in welchen Fällen sie vielleicht doch etwas bringen könnten. Mittlerweile spreche sogar EU-Kommissionschefin Ursula von der Leyen davon, "dass wir vielleicht Preiskontrollen für den Gasmarkt brauchen", sagt Weber. Im Wirtschaftspodcast "Ist das eine Blase?" sprechen Lisa Nienhaus, Jens Tönnesmann und Lisa Hegemann immer montags über das, was die Welt im Innersten zusammenhält: Geld, Macht, Gerechtigkeit. Immer mit einem Gast – und einem Tier.

Als die Ökonomin Isabella Weber im vergangenen Dezember gezielte Preiskontrollen als Instrument der Inflationsbekämpfung diskutierte, reagierten viele Ökonomen mit Spott. Wenige Monate später hat sich das Blatt gewendet: Selbst die EU-Kommissionschefin Ursula von der Leyen denkt über einen Energiepreisdeckel nach. Es ist daher an der Zeit, differenziert auf Preiskontrollen als Instrument der Inflationsbekämpfung zu blicken. Dr. Andrew Elrod, der im vergangenen Jahr über die Geschichte der Preiskontrollen in den USA promoviert hat, berichtet im 24. WfA-Spezial, wie häufig Preiskontrollen im 20. Jahrhundert eingesetzt wurden, und welche Folgen diese Politik hatte. Ihr könnt Andrew Elrod auf Twitter folgen: https://twitter.com/andrewelrod Ihr könnt uns unterstützen - herzlichen Dank!

Isabella Weber on How China Escaped Shock Therapy: The Market Reform Debate. The lecture is part of the LSE ID Cutting Edge Issues in Development Thinking & Practice series. 

We are delighted to present a brand new series hosted by Sushant Singh (Senior Fellow, CPR), featuring leading experts on the multiple facets of Sino-India relations. In the first episode of the series, we are joined by Arunabh Ghosh (Historian and Associate Professor of Modern Chinese, History Department, Harvard University) to unpack Sino-India relations through a historical lens. Together, Singh and Ghosh uncover the relationship between the two neighbours through documented exchanges in the 1950s involving statistics, mathematics and discussions on transnational institutions and scientific networks. They discuss the decline of these exchanges after the 1962 war, why the inadequate academic scholarship has not improved since and the dangers of intermediation of knowledge through a western prism. With China's economic success creating a sense of envy in India, it is important to acknowledge the history of this success, the role of imperial legacies in the border crisis and the need to understand the nature of the Chinese state and what exactly happened between the two great nations.

The eyes of the world are on China as Beijing hosts the Winter Olympics. A successful Games will be used by leader Xi Jinping to bolster his image and status at home and abroad; a status that was given a significant boost in November, when a major meeting of the Communist Party effectively enshrined his position in the party's historical pantheon, alongside Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping.But while the opening ceremonies and stage-managed meetings played out without a hitch, there are still major tests for the Chinese leadership. This is especially true on the economic front, as growth slows, and concerns about a crisis in the property market persist. In this episode we look at the state of play in Chinese politics and economics with two well-placed observers.Dr Ling Li teaches Chinese politics and law at the University of Vienna, where she was also a visiting professor.  She has written extensively on topics related to corruption and anti-corruption in China. And Dr Isabella Weber is an Assistant Professor of Economics and the Research Leader for China of the Asian Political Economy Program at the Political Economy Research Institute at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Her recent book, ‘How China Escaped Shock Therapy: The Market Reform Debate' provides a detailed history and analysis of the debates around economic reform in 1908s China.As ever, you can find more information on our website 

A sizeable part of the Chinese economy is still dominated by state-owned enterprises (SOEs). Due to their direct link to the government, they are often employed as spearheads for the roll-out of new policies. What role does the government envision for SOEs in the ongoing common prosperity push for a more equal China? How can Beijing mobilize SOEs and what actions will they take? This episode of our podcast features a discussion with Sarah Eaton and Nis Grünberg. Sarah Eaton is Professor of Transregional China Studies at Humboldt University Berlin and co-founder of the Berlin Contemporary China Network. Nis Grünberg is Lead Analyst at MERICS.More on the topic:Check out our other recent podcasts on China's economic policies:China's economic policies, with Barry Naughton and Max J. ZengleinCommon prosperity means closer alignment with CCP goals for private companies, with Isabella Weber and Jacob Gunther 

With the concept of “common prosperity” set as a key goal of the Communist Party, China´s economic model seems to be heading for a big shift in the coming years. Already Beijing is introducing policies aimed at aligning the market with the Party´s ideology and broader goals. Can we expect to see a shift away from the pragmatic economic state-planning of the last decades towards a more ideologically driven development? And what would that imply for the role of private companies in China?We will discuss these questions with Isabella Weber and Jacob Gunter. Isabella Weber is the Research Leader for China of the Asian Political Economy Program at the Political Economy Research Institute and an Assistant Professor of Economics at the University of Massachusetts. She is the author of the book How China Escaped Shock Therapy: The Market Reform Debate, which was published in 2021. Jacob Gunter is a Senior Analyst focusing on China's economy at MERICS.

Speaker: Isabella Weber, Assistant Professor of Economics, University of Massachusetts Amherst China has become deeply integrated into the world economy. Yet, gradual marketization has facilitated the country's rise without leading to its wholesale assimilation to global neoliberalism. This book uncovers the fierce contest about economic reforms that shaped China's path. In the first post-Mao decade, China's reformers were sharply divided. They agreed that China had to reform its economic system and move toward more marketization – but struggled over how to go about it. Should China destroy the core of the socialist system through shock therapy, or should it use the institutions of the planned economy as market creators? With hindsight, the historical record proves the high stakes behind the question: China embarked on an economic expansion commonly described as unprecedented in scope and pace, whereas Russia's economy collapsed under shock therapy. Based on extensive research, including interviews with key Chinese and international participants and World Bank officials as well as insights gleaned from unpublished documents, the book charts the debate that ultimately enabled China to follow a path to gradual reindustrialization. Beyond shedding light on the crossroads of the 1980s, it reveals the intellectual foundations of state-market relations in reform-era China through a longue durée lens. Overall, the book delivers an original perspective on China's economic model and its continuing contestations from within and from without. Isabella M. Weber is a political economist working on China, global trade and the history of economic thought. She is an Assistant Professor of Economics and the Research Leader for China of the Asian Political Economy Program at the Political Economy Research Institute at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

For years, people have talked about China's ongoing process of opening up, or liberalizing its economy. And yet lately it's taken strong moves that seem to indicate a change in direction. It's cracked down on some of its largest tech companies while also allowing its real estate sector to cool off considerably, as we've seen with the stress on Evergrande. On this Odd Lots, we speak with UMass Amherst professor Isabella Weber, the author of the new book How China Escaped Shock Therapy: The Market Reform Debate. She explores China's big vision for making markets work in the pursuit of its ideas on socialism, and how the recent moves fit into a much broader, ongoing strategy.

Isabella Weber, assistant professor of economics at UMass Amherst, discusses her new book on how China managed its transition from central planning to markets

This week on Sinica, Kaiser chats with Isabella Weber, assistant professor of economics at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, about her new book, How China Escaped Shock Therapy: The Market Reform Debate. Meticulously researched and persuasively argued, her book makes important contributions to our understanding of a critical period in China's recent history: the decade of the 1980s, when a fierce debate between “package reformers” supporting sweeping price liberalization and gradualists who argued that state participation in the market was critical to dampen inflation and maintain social stability. And it sheds light on the run-up to the student-led demonstrations of 1989.12:20: Debunking a conventional wisdom on China's economy22:05: The relationship between states and markets40:01: A universal need for reform in the early 1980s1:10:47: Student intellectuals in 1988 and the “full steam ahead” campRecommendations:Isabella: The movie Rashomon, directed by Akira Kurosawa and Cold War, directed by Paweł Aleksander Pawlikowski.Kaiser: Assigned reading from Kaiser: The Chinese Communist Party: A Chinese Century in Ten Lives, edited by Timothy Cheek, Klaus Mühlhahn, and Hans van de Wen.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Behind the News, 7/8/21 - guest: Isabella Weber on how China resisted shock therapy - Doug Henwood

On China, economic reform, and the future. While Russia famously succumbed to destructive neoliberal "shock therapy", China managed to avoid it. How and why? Isabella Weber, author of How China Escaped Shock Therapy, tells us about China's opting for gradual reform instead.  What did reform mean for understandings of socialism? Do communists make the best capitalists? And is the pursuit of growth and development at any cost China's own version of the End of History?

Host: Tim Stenovec. Producer: Paul Brennan.

At the end of the 1980s, China's leaders came close to implementing the kind of economic shock therapy reforms that a few years later caused a social and economic catastrophe in the former Soviet Union and much of eastern Europe. A moment of enormous significance for Chinese and world history, Isabella Weber explains how and why China came to the brink of initiating an economic "big bang", and why ultimately the leadership chose to pursue a gradualist process of market reform instead.
