This book analyses the history of economic crises from the angle of
international politics and its transformation throughout the 20th
century. While political and economic debates in the wake of the
present financial crisis are revolving around the question of how
to create effective forms of global governance, historians have
discovered a long tradition of international economic regulation
that can be traced back to the late 19th century. In the global
economy, sovereign defaults, banking crises and currency crashes
have been recurrent phenomena. At the same time, alongside the
growing globalization of commodity and capital markets,
nation-states have introduced new forms of regulation both on the
national and international level. The experience of economic crises
has been an important driver behind numerous initiatives to foster
global politics. The purpose of the book is to reconnect economic
history with the perspectives of political economy and the history
of international relations. It forms a dialogue between the
disciplines that have been increasingly separated throughout the
past decades. With first-rate economic historians and political
economists writing for a wider audience, it simultaneously makes
public debates and methods of recent cutting-edge research in
economic history within a wider academic community. This book was
originally published as a special issue of the European Review of
History.
