Why we are so rich

Flap text
This book helps to understand the real context of the Swiss economy. It is not another version in the series of abstract economics books. Rather, with more than 100 catchy graphics and understandable commentaries, it makes it clear why Switzerland holds its own in the top group despite high wages and prices on the world markets. This book explains the background to why Switzerland had the lowest unemployment rate in the last decade despite low economic growth. It shows the mechanisms at work in Switzerland, which thanks to our efficient VET/PET system maintains its competitiveness in the globalised world.
