Khanna, a technology attorney who spent two years as Deputy Assistant Secretary of the US Department of Commerce and teaches economics at Stanford U., argues that America is still a global leader in manufacturing and shows how US manufacturers have an advantage over their competitors in more authoritarian or bureaucratic nations because of their bottom-up philosophy. He draws on US history to show how the policy recommendations of today's manufacturers are grounded in bipartisan precedent and are aligned with what has made the US an economic superpower. He provides examples of companies around the country and discusses the importance of innovation, sophisticated export strategies, onshoring, upgrading manufacturing skills, and defense-related manufacturing, ending with a summary of key policy ideas. He also addresses the libertarian orthodoxy of policy makers who want to abandon America's heritage of supporting private manufacturers and contemporary economists who favor a service econo
