Dance of the Trillions
In Dance of the Trillions, David Lubin tells the story of what makes money flow from high-income countries to lower-income ones; what makes it flow out again; and how developing countries have sought protection against the volatility of international capital flows. The book traces an arc from the 1970s, when developing countries first gained access to international financial markets, to the present day. Underlying this story is a discussion of how the relationship between developing countries and global finance appears to be moving from one governed by the “Washington Consensus” to one more likely to be shaped by Beijing.

David Lubin
Excerpt from David Lubin: A Study in Practical Idealism More than fifteen years ago I first met David Lubin. We were in Rome, dining with the Nelson Gays, who invited several notables, political and literary, to meet us. Among these was Lubin, whom I had never heard of before. But during my conversation with him, I was at once impressed by him. He was a man of medium size, well built and with a remarkable head. He seemed to say things of special pertinence to me, and I found myself listening to his remarks when they casually emerged above the general hum. When the dinner broke up I asked my friends to tell me all they could about Mr. Lubin and his ideals, and I heard that he had just had an ...

Picturing a Nation
Art historian David Lubin examines the work of six nineteenth-century American artists to show how their paintings both embraced and resisted dominant social values. Lubin argues that artists such as George Bingham and Lily Martin Spencer were aware of the underlying social conflicts of their time and that their work reflected the nation's ambivalence toward domesticity, its conflicting ideas about child rearing, its racial disharmony, and many other issues central to the formation of modern America.--From publisher description.

The book brings together paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, posters, and ephemera, spanning the diverse visual culture of the period to tell the story of a crucial turning point in the history of American art---
