The end of laissez-faire

An analysis of what American economic policy should be and can be in the 1990s--an interpretation of the relation between domestic economic health and international politics, and of how we should set priorities to maintain our economy and our compettitive vigor in the future.

First sentence: A remarkable half-decade of statecraft began at Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, where, in the stately Mount Washington Hotel, representatives of forty-four nations spent the first week of July 1944 designing a system to restore the world's flow of money and commerce after the disruptions of World War II.
