    The hidden fractures threatening our economy

    Raghuram Rajan is an economist, a former central banker and he is credited with predicting the 2008 financial crisis. He also wrote a book about it called Fault Lines: How Hidden Fractures Still Threaten the World Economy. The book won the FT Business Book of the Year award in 2010. And those fault lines that Rajan wrote about 15 years ago, some of them are still coursing through our economy and markets. On this show, we discuss what those fault lines were, which ones still exist and if new fault lines have opened up. The shortlist for the 2024 edition of the FT and Schroders Business Book of the Year has already been announced. The winner will be revealed on December 9. To find out more visit ft.com/bookaward.

    Janesville: The decline of the American Dream

    Janesville, in Winsocsin, was once the epitome of the American Dream. But everything changed following the global financial crisis when General Motors, the business that provided the town with most of its wealth, shut its plant. On today’s show we have Amy Goldstein, the award winning author of the FT Business book of the year, Janesville. Amy spent 36 years as a journalist at The Washington Post writing widely about social issues. Among her awards, she shared the 2002 Pulitzer Prize for national reporting. She now works for the Brookings think tank. Amy joined me to discuss the story of Janesville, a town built on the back on one industry, one company. And what happens to the town and the people of that town when the heart of its economy is ripped out. And it’s not just about a small town in Wisconsin, this is a larger story of the hollowing out of the middle class and businesses responsibilities to the communities they serve.
