Since March, Ashin has set up a fixed column every month - "CITIC Editor's Selection". Pick the best books to read in recent times by our own senior editors, sub-brand owners, and in-house publishers.
This list of books is selected in the form of voting in the form of a new book published recently, focusing on the content and value of the book rather than sales volume, and the books selected are good books with style, taste, and beautiful binding design.
In the midst of the complex flow of information, Ashin hopes that through these good books, readers can provide readers with a new perspective and thinking on the world, society and individuals with foresight and inspiration.

Stakeholder klaus Schwab by CITIC Press Books ¥51.4 Purchase
The global pandemic has exposed the fragility of the current global economic development model. But before that, the global economy was already mired in multiple dilemmas: rising inequality, slowing economic growth, weak productivity growth, accelerating climate change, deepening social divisions...
Schwab, the founder of the World Economic Forum, has been keenly aware of these issues for more than 30 years and has been working to explore their roots for many years. In his view, the current economic development system driven by short-term interests determines that the development of the global economy is bound to be unbalanced and crisis-ridden.
Combining his years of thinking and practical experience in business and politics, Schwab proposes a more sustainable model of economic development – a stakeholder model – advocating that businesses, governments and the international community should first put the well-being of all mankind at the center.
To this end, the author also visited and sorted out the corporate development and policy practices in China, Denmark, Ethiopia, Germany, Indonesia, New Zealand, Singapore and other places, providing guidance for the implementation of stakeholder models at the practical level.

Unjust Victory Emanuel Seth et al. CITIC Publishing House Books ¥44.2 Purchase
How do the rich evade taxes? How has tax injustice further exacerbated inequality?
This is the first book to discuss inequality from a tax perspective. The authors say the United States once had the most progressive tax system in the world, but today it is becoming a tool for only a few rich people.
Through statistical analysis, the book concludes that the tax rate paid by Billionaires in the United States is actually lower than that of ordinary workers! Such a tax system will further widen the gap between rich and poor, exacerbate inequality and oligarchy, and ultimately pose a serious threat to globalization and economic development.
