In many commodity-based economies, rollercoaster boom-and-bust
cycles have come to be viewed almost as an unavoidable
characteristic. Framed mainly in the context of the Alberta
economy, the articles in this volume explore a wide range of issues
associated with the historical phenomenon of recurring periods of
boom and bust, including reasons for their apparent inevitability,
dealing with revenue volatility, possible diversification
strategies, savings policy, and challenges faced by policy makers.
Re-examining and shedding new light on these struggles, Boom and
Bust Again is an important contribution to the literature on policy
issues for readers in the fields of economics, business, finance,
and public policy. Contributors: Robert L. Ascah, Jason Brisbois,
Colin Busby, Edward J. Chambers, Bev Dahlby, Stephen Duckett, J. C.
Herbert Emery, Nicholas Emter, Roger Gibbins, Brad R. Humphreys,
Ronald Kneebone, Gordon Kramer, Stuart Landon, Kathleen Macaspac,
Victor A. Matheson, Melville McMillan, John D. Murray, Alice O.
Nakamura, Al O'Brien, David L. Ryan, Liesje Sarnecki, Constance
Smith.
