In Interdependent Economy, author Liem Giok In investigates the causes of today's imbalanced world economy. In her analysis, she frees macroeconomic thinking from the straitjacket of the micro-logic of growth, opening up a whole new space where policy proposals can unfold. Furthermore, she does not old up any economic system as the ideal, but proves that people of various cultures and lifestyles can thrive by defining their own unique economies. Interdependent Economy is not ideology; it is mere logic followed to the end. This logic is rooted in a basic need felt by all people of this world - to live and to survive. The result: economic policy that accomplishes self-empowerment for individuals and world peace for all.
