The economic crisis of 2008-2009 and beyond has provided the
greatest challenge to public policy in the developed world since
the Second World War, as the use of public monies to support banks
and declining tax revenues have resulted in rising government
borrowing and national debt. This book evaluates the failures of
public policy in the half decade before the crisis, using the
conceptual framework of complex systems. This analysis reveals the
fundamental failings of globalization and the lack of a robust and
resilient public sector paradigm to assist countries in economic
recovery. The research has benefited from UK Economic and Social
Research Council (ESRC) funding for a Knowledge Exchange that
applied the most relevant and applied aspects of complex systems
theory to contemporary policy problems. Innovative statistical
methods are used to profile and group countries both before and
after the 2008-09 crisis. This shows the countries that are best
prepared for the ongoing and prolonged Euro zone crisis of 2010-12.
The book proposes a new model of public policy that asserts itself
over the paradigm of market liberalism and places the public values
of full employment, sustainability and equality at the top of the
post crisis policy agenda.
