In this incisive fifth edition of Financial Crises and Recession in
the Global Economy, Roy E. Allen examines the major financial
instabilities, crises, and evolutionary trends since the 1970s and
through the recent Covid-19 pandemic. Providing empirical research
on the relation between money and the real economy, Allen explains
how key financial variables are driven more by psychological and
social constructs than is commonly understood and discusses how
monetary wealth transfers in the context of what he terms ‘US
money mercantilism’ have favored the US dollar ‘core’ of the
global system. Chapters go on to explore the continuing
globalization of financial markets, including further innovations
in information-processing technology, government deregulation, new
uses and forms of money, and emerging financial products and
markets. Allen elaborates on the political economy of financial
crises and further advances his human ecology economics framework
to help guide research and policymaking in the future. Explaining
why large-scale financial instabilities occur and how they might be
better managed and avoided, this thoroughly revised fifth edition
will be an essential resource for students and scholars of
international economics, macroeconomics, international finance, and
international political economy. Its critical insights on how the
international system continues to evolve will also help inform
policymakers’ responses to financial crises.
