The New Localism: Comparative Urban Politics in a Global Era, Vol. 164
Let me be more humble and decent in reviewing this wonderful book this time. It's wonderful not because of 100 percent its contents, but more because of what's behind it and how Rostow hides his skepticism toward the charm of economic growth while he has to serve his patron's (sorry) ego for Presidential election.
Yes, I'm talking about the late Kennedy back in 1960, to whom Rostow dedicate his book. I bet Rostow knew well how to be in the middle of giants wresting for power and insert skepticism on his own idea to reshape the nation toward economic giant, a more gigantic than before. He's not just selling dream, he includes path, a clue towards inclusive growth for 21st century.
A recipe for degrowth which starts with his skepticism on the illusion of growth. A short sentence hiding in the end of the book.
