Why have financial crises been increasingly frequent and severe in
the last thirty years? How can financial crises be prevented? What
role do governments and international institutions play in their
prevention? How does the latest crisis fit in the long-term
political economy cycle of finance? This book answers these
questions, using three complementary parts: Part I provides the
reader with the 'toolkit' necessary for understanding financial
crises -- explaining the essential elements of economic theory. In
Part II the authors put these key theories in context, using them
to illustrate the chief international crises since the Great
Depression of the 1930s and events that, since the 1980s, have
triggered a high level of instability. Whenever appropriate,
similarities and differences between these historic crises and the
recent crisis are highlighted. Part III focuses on the Great Crisis
of 2007-09, triggered by the turmoil in the subprime mortgage
market of the USA. By offering a comprehensive explanation of the
long-term dynamics of financial systems and by depicting the
prototype of a financial crisis, the book enables an in-depth
understanding of any specific crisis and gives models for
identifying the crisis's true origins and amplification channels.
The book concludes with a discussion of ways to secure a stable,
sustainable future for globalized finance.
