Financial Crisis and Recession in the Global Economy (Studies in International Political Economy): summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Financial Crisis and Recession in the Global Economy (Studies in International Political Economy)" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This timely and authoritative book explains the rise and fall of economies in Asia, Central America and Europe since 1980 and discusses these crises in the context of continuing economic globalization. This updated and fully revised edition includes a detailed account of the Mexican crisis of 1994-95, the Japanese crisis which has worsened in the late 1990s and the Asian crisis which emerged in 1997. Professor Allen discusses the impact of new uses and forms of money, and new financial flows such as electronic monies and offshore financial markets. These processes explain how the US economy has benefited from money-mercantilism at the expense of other regions of the world. The author then provides a thorough taxonomy of the common patterns of recent currency crises. He formalizes a new political economy of money which goes further than the conventional literature in explaining these patterns. Roy Allen provides policy recommendations for the G7, World Bank, IMF and various nations which will also prove invaluable to students and scholars of financial economics, international economics and international political economy.
