"The Unbalanced Economy" is a scholarly book that examines the economic developments in Great Britain during the 1980s. During this period, the country became one of the most market-oriented economies in the world, which, however, led to three severe recessions and increasing inequality. The authors, Paul Temple and Ciaran Driver, argue that a rethinking and realignment of the economy are necessary to eliminate existing inequalities. They emphasize that without targeted and proactive measures at the corporate and industrial levels, achieving genuine economic balance will be difficult. The book provides a well-founded analysis of the economic challenges and discusses possible solutions to promote a fairer distribution of wealth.
