{"product_id":"9789814590525","title":"Global Economic Turmoil And The Public Good","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe global financial crisis of 2008 was resolved over the course of two years after the collapse of the US housing bubble, but the world economy did not vigorously rebound as expected. The West has been torpid, while Asian economic vitality has steadily waned. These developments have been diversely interpreted and authorities have responded with a series of institutional reforms and policy fixes, without coming to grips with accumulating national debts, the kinds of speculative practices that caused the financial crisis, and the inadequacies of neoclassical and Keynesian macroeconomic explanations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGlobal Economic Turmoil and the Public Good\u003c\/i\u003e presents the cumulative research of both authors. It updates the readers on global economic developments since 2008, while providing a concise, yet comprehensive survey of the causes and protracted consequences of the 2008 financial crisis. The book explains the global financial disequilibrium and catastrophic crisis risks; surveys and appraises institutional reforms designed to reinvigorate growth and ameliorate financial crisis risk; and proposes specific actions which will prevent another global financial crisis and its economic fallout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGlobal Economic Turmoil:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlaying with Fire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIgnoring Today's Dangers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsider Democracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSqueezing the Middle Class\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiberalization for the Privileged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEast–West Polarization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDegeneration, Crisis and Disorder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eObstacles to Crisis Prevention:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWords Instead of Action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTreadmill of Regulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMacroeconomic Miasma\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogmatism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePipe Dreams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoublethink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eFramework for Sustainable Prosperity:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Importance of Inclusive Economic Theory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreaking Vicious Cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLesser Evil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProspects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e General public, students (undergraduates and postgraduates), policymakers and professionals interested in understanding the 2008 financial crisis and how to prevent future ones.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdds value by crystalizing the epochal significance of the crisis (global sclerosis)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExamines the largely overlooked causes of “ideocracy”, “politicracy” and supranationality, offering a fresh explanation of the causes of post-2008 global economic sclerosis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParses new developments in macroeconomic theory intended both to explain the post-crisis economic sclerosis and assess future financial crisis risk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncorporates these novel factors in a new inclusive economic theory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Company, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150191247600,"sku":"9789814590525","price":47.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789814590525_p0.jpg?v=1763692176","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789814590525","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
