    Book SynopsisThe global financial crisis of 2007-09, and the Great Recession that it engendered, were both a challenge and an opportunity for Asia. The region not only remained unharmed by the global financial crisis initially but also recovered the fastest. In addition, it was also the principal driver of the global recovery.This book analyzes the impact of the global financial crisis and the Great Recession on the Asian economy. Chapters look at the most significant issues related to the Asian economy during the crisis, how it coped with them and how it eventually emerged from them. Dilip K. Das discusses how the Asian economy, particularly the emerging-market economies, spearheaded the recovery of the global economy from the global financial crisis and recession, and goes on to look at how this is of historical significance. Written in a clear, comprehensive and critical manner, this book covers the contemporary academic and policy debates on Asia's role in the world economy. AsTrade Review"Das specifically targets his book at students in business schools and in master’s level programs in fields such as economics and international relations. And the book [...] comes across as using a scope of analyses and methods of presentation that would suit students of these levels, as well as researchers who are looking for a concise, detailed, and data filled analysis of the short-term impact of the crisis on Asia and the responses of Asian states to the crisis [...] Das' book provides a helpful data-filled but not overly mathematical short-term overview of the great recession, its impact on parts of Asia, the policy responses of Asian politicians, and the successes of these responses." - James Parisot, Ph.D., Binghamton University (SUNY), in the Journal of International and Global Studies, 3:2, (April 2012) 'Overall, Dilip K. Das makes a convincing case that the Asian economies, particularly the emerging markets, have played a major role not only in reshaping the global economic landscape, but also in leading the global economy out of recession. The book is well suited for anyone who is interested in studying the global financial crisis and the role of the Asian economies. Targeted for a wide range of readers, the book is neither overly technical nor highly model-oriented.' - Congsheng Wu; JOURNAL OF CHINESE POLITICAL SCIENCE (2013)Table of Contents1. The Global Financial Crisis: The Great Recession and the Recovery 2. The Asian Economic Architecture before the Global Financial Crisis 3. The Global Financial Market Turbulence and Its Impact on the Asian Economy 4. Asian Economy Spearheading the Global Recovery 5. Leadership Role for the Asian Economy in Reshaping the Global Economy 6. The Chinese Economy and the Global Financial Crisis: A Strategic Response

    Book SynopsisOnce-in-a-lifetime financial crises have been a recurrent part of life in the last three decades. It is no longer possible to dismiss or ignore them as aberrations in an otherwise well-functioning system. Nor are they peculiar to recent times. Going back in history, asset price bubbles and bank-runs have been an endemic feature of the capitalist system over the last four centuries. The historical record offers a treasure trove of experience that may shed light on how and why financial crises happen and what can be done to avoid them - provided we are willing to learn from history.This book interweaves historical accounts with competing economic crisis theories and reveals why commentaries are often contradictory. First, it presents a series of episodes from tulip mania in the 17th century to the subprime mortgage meltdown. In order to tease out their commonalities and differences, it describes political, economic, and social backgrounds, identifies the primary actors and instTable of Contents1. Introduction 2.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Aviation in Crisis

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis title was first published in 2003. The events of 11 September 2001 defy modern economic theory when addressed in aviation terms. Economic theory would suggest that, once the impact of such events are a thing of the past, and economies are restored to their status quo ante, a rise in the gross domestic product of States to earlier levels would almost inevitably result in increased consumption. This in turn would mean that the demand for air travel would rise to earlier proportions and consumption in terms of air transport services would be restored to normalcy. However, the September attacks on United States'' property introduced a unique characteristic through the fear factor that directly impacts the future development of air transport. As a result, the grim task of restoration of passenger confidence stands in the way of economic revival of the air transport industry. Aviation was always in crisis. The air transport industry, even prior to 11 September 2001, although seeminglTable of Contents1: Introduction; 2: The Commercial Crisis; 3: The Security Crisis; 4: The Insurance Crisis; 5: The Environmental Crisis; 6: Conclusion

    Random House USA Inc 13 Bankers

    Book SynopsisIn spite of its key role in creating the ruinous financial crisis of 2008, the American banking industry has grown bigger, more profitable, and more resistant to regulation than ever. Anchored by six megabanks whose assets amount to more than 60 percent of the country’s gross domestic product, this oligarchy proved it could first hold the global economy hostage and then use its political muscle to fight off meaningful reform. 13 Bankers brilliantly charts the rise to power of the financial sector and forcefully argues that we must break up the big banks if we want to avoid future financial catastrophes.  Updated, with additional analysis of the government’s recent attempt to reform the banking industry, this is a timely and expert account of our troubled political economy.
