En 'La Cultura del Contentamiento', John Kenneth Galbraith analiza la complacencia económica y política de la sociedad estadounidense durante la era Reagan-Bush. Examina cómo esta complacencia, impulsada por el bienestar de una minoría privilegiada, influye en las políticas a corto plazo, la percepción del gobierno como una carga y la esclerosis corporativa. Además, establece paralelismos entre la negación de problemas en Europa del Este y los desafíos ignorados en Estados Unidos, ofreciendo una evaluación profunda y crítica del futuro del país.
John Kenneth Galbraith, also known as J. K. Galbraith or Ken Galbraith, was a Canadian-American economist, diplomat, public official, and intellectual. His books on economic topics were bestsellers from the 1950s through the 2000s. As an economist, he leaned toward post-Keynesian economics from an institutionalist perspective. He served as the deputy director of the powerful Office of Price Administration (OPA) during World War II in charge of stabilizing all prices, wages and rents in the American economy, to combat the threat of inflation and hoarding during a time of shortages and rationing, a task which was successfully accomplished.
