Presents the first theoretical analysis of the Asian financial
crisis and draws out the general lessons of an event whose
potential long term effects have been likened to those of the Crash
of 1929. Part I presents a factual and analytic overview of what
happened: the role of 'vulnerability'; the interconnection between
currency crises and financial crises; and why crisis turned into
collapse. Part II considers more detailed issues, including how the
inflation of non-traded goods prices created vulnerability,
welfare-reducing capital inflow owing to under-regulated financial
markets, and the onset of speculative attacks. Part III assesses
all aspects of contagion, in particular the role of geographic
proximity. The final section addresses policy issues. Joseph
Stiglitz argues that there is much that can be done to reduce the
frequency of crises and to mitigate the severity of crises when
they happen. The book finishes with a round-table discussion of
policy issues.
