The Paradox of Debt

Richard Vague

The Paradox of Debt argues that, while debt – private and public – is essential to our economy, it also tends to create instability and crisis. A deep-dive analysis of the nation’s entire balance sheet allows us to see how the dynamic force of debt can be managed to maintain both growth and stability.

Updates

Announcing Not Zero by Ross Clark

I am delighted to announce another acquisition by Forum Press: Not Zero: How an Irrational Target Will Impoverish You, Help China (and Won’t Even Save the Planet) by Ross Clark. I will concede that when a book against Net Zero – the legally binding government target to reduce the UK’s greenhouse gas emissions to Net Zero by 2050 – was proposed to me, I was a little wary. There comes a point when one wonders whether one has the energy to court controversy on yet another subject, particularly one that has increasingly become a taboo area.

Announcing Tony Sewell’s Black Success

I am very excited to announce another acquisition by Forum Press – Black Success: The Inconvenient Truth by Tony Sewell. Tony was the chair of the government’s Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities, which delivered its report last year. The report argued that disparities in social outcomes between different ethnic groups in Britain are not always the product of racial discrimination, but have many complex causes, often rooted in culture, family influence, religion and socio-economic factors.
