Fear City: New York's Fiscal Crisis and the Rise of Austerity Politics In 1975, when news broke out that New York City was on the brink of financial collapse, few believed it was possible - how could the capital of the financial world go bankrupt? However, the city was billions of dollars in debt, with no one even knowing the exact amount. Bankers and politicians used this situation to argue that social liberalism, which New York famously exemplified, was doomed to fail, and promised apocalyptic scenarios if the city didn't fire thousands of workers, freeze wages, and slash social services. In her vivid and gripping account, historian Kim Phillips-Fein tells the remarkable story of the crisis that engulfed the city, forever transforming the largest metropolis in the United States. Drawing on never-before-used archival sources and interviews with key players in the crisis, Phillips-Fein guides us through the hairpin turns and sudden reversals that brought New York City to the edge of bankruptcy and kept it from going over. This sweeping history of some of the most tumultuous times in the city's past is a colorful portrait of the unwieldy mechanics of municipal government and an origin story of the politics of austerity. Fear City is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the resurgent fiscal conservatism of today.
Fear City: New York's Fiscal Crisis and the Rise of Reasterity Politics В 1975 году, когда появились новости о том, что Нью-Йорк находится на грани финансового краха, мало кто верил, что это возможно - как капитал финансового мира может обанкротиться? Однако город имел миллиардные долги, и никто даже не знал точную сумму. Банкиры и политики использовали эту ситуацию, чтобы утверждать, что социальный либерализм, примером которого стал Нью-Йорк, обречен на провал, и обещали апокалиптические сценарии, если город не уволит тысячи рабочих, не заморозит зарплаты и не сократит социальные услуги. В своем ярком и захватывающем рассказе историк Ким Филлипс-Фейн рассказывает замечательную историю кризиса, охватившего город, навсегда преобразив крупнейший мегаполис США. Опираясь на никогда ранее не использовавшиеся архивные источники и интервью с ключевыми игроками в кризис, Phillips-Fein проводит нас через повороты шпилек и внезапные развороты, которые привели Нью-Йорк на грань банкротства и не позволили ему перейти. Эта обширная история некоторых из самых бурных времен в прошлом города является красочным портретом громоздкой механики муниципального управления и историей происхождения политики жесткой экономии. Fear City - это важное чтение для всех, кто хочет понять возрождающийся сегодня фискальный консерватизм.
Fear City : New York Crisis and the Rise of Reasterity Politics En 1975, quand on a appris que New York était au bord de l'effondrement financier, peu de gens croyaient que c'était possible - comment le capital du monde financier pouvait-il faire faillite ? Mais la ville avait des milliards de dettes, et personne ne connaissait le montant exact. s banquiers et les politiciens ont utilisé cette situation pour affirmer que le libéralisme social, dont New York a été l'exemple, est voué à l'échec et ont promis des scénarios apocalyptiques si la ville ne licenciait pas des milliers de travailleurs, ne gèlerait pas les salaires et ne réduisait pas les services sociaux. Dans son récit brillant et passionnant, l'historien Kim Phillips-Fein raconte l'histoire merveilleuse de la crise qui a envahi la ville, transformant pour toujours la plus grande métropole des États-Unis. S'appuyant sur des sources archivées jamais utilisées et des interviews avec des acteurs clés de la crise, Phillips-Fein nous guide à travers les virages de talons et les retournements soudains qui ont conduit New York au bord de la faillite et l'ont empêché de passer. Cette vaste histoire de certains des temps les plus agités du passé de la ville est un portrait coloré de la mécanique lourde de la gestion municipale et de l'histoire d'origine des politiques d'austérité. Fear City est une lecture importante pour tous ceux qui veulent comprendre le conservatisme fiscal qui renaît aujourd'hui.
Fear City: Crisis fiscal de Nueva York y el riesgo de Reasterity Politics En 1975, cuando surgió la noticia de que Nueva York estaba al borde del colapso financiero, pocos creían que fuera posible - cómo podría el capital del mundo financiero quebrar? n embargo, la ciudad tenía miles de millones de dólares en deudas y nadie sabía siquiera la cantidad exacta. Banqueros y políticos han aprovechado esta situación para afirmar que el liberalismo social, ejemplificado en Nueva York, está condenado al fracaso, y han prometido escenarios apocalípticos si la ciudad no despide a miles de trabajadores, no congela los salarios y recorta los servicios sociales. En su brillante y emocionante relato, la historiadora Kim Phillips-Fein cuenta la maravillosa historia de la crisis que azota la ciudad, transformando para siempre la mayor metrópoli de Estados Unidos. Apoyándonos en fuentes de archivo nunca antes utilizadas y entrevistas con actores clave en la crisis, Phillips-Fein nos lleva a través de giros de horquillas y giros repentinos que llevaron a Nueva York al borde de la bancarrota y le impidieron cruzar. Esta extensa historia de algunos de los tiempos más turbulentos del pasado de la ciudad es un colorido retrato de la abultada mecánica de la gestión municipal y la historia del origen de las políticas de austeridad. Fear City es una lectura importante para cualquiera que quiera entender el conservadurismo fiscal que renace hoy.
Fear City: New York's Fiscal Crisi and the Rise of Reasterity Politics Nel 1975, quando la notizia che New York era sull'orlo del crollo finanziario, pochi credevano che fosse possibile - come il capitale del mondo finanziario potesse fallire? Ma la città aveva debiti miliardari, e nessuno sapeva nemmeno la cifra esatta. I banchieri e i politici hanno usato questa situazione per sostenere che il liberalismo sociale, di cui New York è un esempio, è destinato a fallire, e hanno promesso scenari apocalittici se la città non licenzierà migliaia di lavoratori, congelerà i salari e ridurrà i servizi sociali. Nel suo vivace ed emozionante racconto, lo storico Kim Phillips-Fein racconta la storia meravigliosa della crisi che ha colpito la città, trasformando per sempre la più grande metropoli degli Stati Uniti. Basandosi su fonti di archiviazione mai usate prima e interviste con attori chiave in crisi, Phillips-Fein ci porta attraverso le curve di tacchi e le inversioni improvvise che hanno portato New York al limite della bancarotta e impedito il passaggio. Questa vasta storia di alcuni dei tempi più turbolenti del passato della città è un ritratto colorato della meccanica ingombrante della gestione comunale e la storia dell'origine della politica di austerità. Fear City è una lettura importante per tutti coloro che vogliono capire il rinnovato conservatorismo fiscale di oggi.
Fear City: New York 's Fiscal Crisis and the Rise of Reasterity Politics Als 1975 die Nachricht aufkam, dass New York am Rande des finanziellen Zusammenbruchs steht, glaubten nur wenige, dass dies möglich sei - wie konnte das Kapital der Finanzwelt bankrott gehen? Allerdings hatte die Stadt Milliardenschulden, und niemand wusste auch nur den genauen Betrag. Banker und Politiker nutzten diese tuation, um zu argumentieren, dass der soziale Liberalismus, wie ihn New York vorlebt, zum Scheitern verurteilt ist, und versprachen apokalyptische Szenarien, wenn die Stadt nicht Tausende von Arbeitern entlässt, Löhne einfriert und Sozialleistungen kürzt. In ihrer lebendigen und spannenden Geschichte erzählt die Historikerin Kim Phillips-Fein die bemerkenswerte Geschichte der Krise, die die Stadt erfasst und die größte Metropole der USA für immer verändert hat. Aufbauend auf nie zuvor verwendeten Archivquellen und Interviews mit Schlüsselakteuren in der Krise führt uns Phillips-Fein durch die Haarnadelkurven und plötzlichen Umkehrungen, die New York an den Rand des Bankrotts gebracht und daran gehindert haben, sich zu bewegen. Diese umfangreiche Geschichte einiger der turbulentesten Zeiten in der Vergangenheit der Stadt ist ein farbenfrohes Porträt der schwerfälligen Mechanik der kommunalen Verwaltung und der Entstehungsgeschichte der Sparpolitik. Fear City ist eine wichtige ktüre für alle, die den heute wieder auflebenden fiskalischen Konservatismus verstehen wollen.

Fear City: New York'un Mali Krizi ve Makuliyet Politikalarının Yükselişi 1975 yılında, New York'un mali yıkımın eşiğinde olduğu haberleri çıktığında, çok az kişi bunun mümkün olduğuna inanıyordu - finans dünyasının sermayesi nasıl başarısız olabilirdi? Bununla birlikte, şehrin milyarlarca dolar borcu vardı ve kimse tam miktarını bile bilmiyordu. Bankacılar ve politikacılar bu durumu, New York'un örneklediği sosyal liberalizmin başarısızlığa mahkum olduğunu iddia etmek için kullandılar ve şehir binlerce işçiyi işten çıkarmadıkça, ücretleri dondurmadıkça ve sosyal hizmetleri kesmedikçe kıyamet senaryoları vaat ettiler. Tarihçi Kim Phillips-Fein, canlı ve sürükleyici anlatımında, şehri saran ve Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'ndeki en büyük metropolü sonsuza dek dönüştüren krizin olağanüstü hikayesini anlatıyor. Daha önce hiç kullanılmamış arşiv kaynaklarından ve krizdeki kilit oyuncularla yapılan röportajlardan yararlanan Phillips-Fein, bizi New York'u iflasın eşiğine getiren ve geçmesini engelleyen saç tokası dönüşleri ve ani geri dönüşlerden geçiriyor. Şehrin geçmişindeki en çalkantılı zamanlardan bazılarının bu yayılan tarihi, belediye yönetiminin hantal mekaniğinin ve kemer sıkma politikalarının başlangıç hikayesinin renkli bir portresidir. Korku Şehri, günümüzün yeniden canlanan mali muhafazakarlığını anlamak isteyen herkes için önemli bir okumadır.
Fear City: New York's Financial Crisis and the Rise of Restitrity Politics في عام 1975، عندما اندلعت أنباء عن أن نيويورك كانت على وشك الخراب المالي، اعتقد القليل أنها ممكنة - كيف يمكن لعاصمة العالم المالي أن تفشل ؟ ومع ذلك، كان على المدينة ديون بمليارات الدولارات، ولم يعرف أحد المبلغ بالضبط. استخدم المصرفيون والسياسيون هذا الوضع للقول إن الليبرالية الاجتماعية التي تجسدها نيويورك محكوم عليها بالفشل، ووعدوا بسيناريوهات مروعة ما لم تسرح المدينة آلاف العمال، وتجمد الأجور، وتقطع الخدمات الاجتماعية. في روايتها الحية والمؤثرة، تروي المؤرخة كيم فيليبس فين القصة الرائعة للأزمة التي اجتاحت المدينة، مما أدى إلى تغيير أكبر مدينة في الولايات المتحدة إلى الأبد. بالاعتماد على مصادر أرشيفية لم يتم استخدامها من قبل ومقابلات مع لاعبين رئيسيين في الأزمة، يأخذنا فيليبس فين من خلال منعطفات دبوس الشعر والانعكاسات المفاجئة التي دفعت نيويورك إلى حافة الإفلاس ومنعتها من العبور. هذا التاريخ المترامي الأطراف لبعض أكثر الأوقات اضطرابًا في ماضي المدينة هو صورة ملونة للآليات غير العملية للحكومة البلدية والقصة الأصلية لسياسات التقشف. تعد Fear City قراءة مهمة لأي شخص يريد أن يفهم المحافظة المالية الصاعدة اليوم.
