Abstract

Examining the 1930s and the different reactions to the crisis, this volume offers a global comparative perspective that includes a comparison across time to give insight into the contemporary global recession.

The book offers no recipe for economic, social or polit

Abstract

The last few years, numerous national stock markets have suffered heavily because of the mismanagement of banks and governments. This resulted in a downward trend which several countries were dragged into. If these governments had been able to optimize their fiscal policy, the worldwide financial crisis would not have been dragging on for so long. In our paper, we take a closer look at the impact of the fiscal policy of Germany, Greece as well as Ireland on the quarterly national stock market indices from 1980Q4 until 2011Q4. By using VAR models, the stock return fluctuations can be explained for around 20-25%, depending on the specific country. For all surveyed countries in this research, only the German government spending has an impact on the national stock returns, which almost amounts to a one-to-one relation. For the inverse relation, none of the surveyed countries show signs of a significant influence of the stock market on the fiscal policy.

Abstract

In the spring of 1837, people panicked as financial and economic uncertainty spread within and between New York, New Orleans and London. Although the period of panic would dramatically influence political, cultural and social history, those who panicked sought to erase from history their experiences of one of America's worst early financial crises. The Many Panics of 1837 reconstructs this period in order to make arguments about the national boundaries of history, the role of information in the economy, the personal and local nature of national and international events, the origins and dissemination of economic ideas, and most importantly, what actually happened in 1837. This riveting transatlantic cultural history, based on archival research on two continents, reveals how people transformed their experiences of financial crisis into the 'Panic of 1837', a single event that would serve as a turning point in American history and an early inspiration for business cycle theory.

Abstract

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has played a critical role in the global economy since the postwar era. But, claims Claudia Kedar, behind the strictly economic aspects of the IMF's intervention, there are influential interactions between IMF technocrats and local economists-even when countries are not borrowing money.In The International Monetary Fund and Latin America, Kedar seeks to expose the motivations and constraints of the operations of both the IMF and borrowers. With access to never-before-seen archive materials, Kedar reveals both the routine and behind-th

Abstract

HauptbeschreibungAnhand von 24 Interviews mit Familienunternehmern, Beiräten und Sanierungsexperten wird die Wirkung von wirtschaftlichen Krisen auf die Arbeit von freiwilligen Aufsichtsgremien in Familienunternehmen untersucht. Dabei wird zum einen der Einfluss der verschiedenen Stakeholder auf die Aufgaben des Gremiums analysiert und zum anderen dessen Anpassung an die sich verändernden Rahmenbedingungen untersucht. Es zeigt sich, dass die einen Beirat umgebenden Stakeholder aufgrund der sich auseinander entwickelnden Interessenlagen ihr Verhalten ändern und so neue Konflikte entstehen könne

Abstract

Work sharing' is a labour market instrument devised in order to distribute a reduced volume of work to the same (or similar) number of workers over a diminished period of working time in order to avoid redundancies. This fascinating and timely study presents the concept and history of work sharing and explores the complexities and trade-offs involved in its use as both a strategy for preserving jobs and for increasing employment. The expert contributors analyse country case studies of work sharing programmes implemented across the globe during the great recession of 2008 - 09, and synthesize l

Abstract

Behind every financial crisis lurks a "political bubble"--policy biases that foster market behaviors leading to financial instability. Rather than tilting against risky behavior, political bubbles--arising from a potent combination of beliefs, institutions, and interests--aid, abet, and amplify risk. Demonstrating how political bubbles helped create the real estate-generated financial bubble and the 2008 financial crisis, this book argues that similar government oversights in the aftermath of the crisis undermined Washington's response to the "popped" financial bubble, and shows how such patterns have occurred repeatedly throughout US history. The authors show that just as financial bubbles are an unfortunate mix of mistaken beliefs, market imperfections, and greed, political bubbles are the product of rigid ideologies, unresponsive and ineffective government institutions, and special interests. Financial market innovations--including adjustable-rate mortgages, mortgage-backed securities, and credit default swaps--become subject to legislated leniency and regulatory failure, increasing hazardous practices. The authors shed important light on the politics that blinds regulators to the economic weaknesses that create the conditions for economic bubbles and recommend simple, focused rules that should help avoid such crises in the future. The first full accounting of how politics produces financial ruptures, Political Bubbles offers timely lessons that all sectors would do well to heed.
