A historical and theoretical investigation of the "common storylines" of recent financial crises.
Financial crises have some common storylines, among them bursting asset bubbles, bank failures, sharp tightening of credit, and downturn in trade. They are also different from one another. Some start with sudden reversal of international capital flows, others with domestic credit implosions. A challenge to economic research is to integrate common as well as disparate threads into a coherent analytical framework that is at the same time empirically testable. In Understanding Global Crises, Assaf Razin offers a review of an emerging paradigm that is consistent with the key features of recent global financial crises. This paradigm presents in a transparent way basic analytical elements of the theories of financial and monetary crises and how these elements fit together in macroeconomic analysis of global crises.
Razin surveys the credit implosion that led to a severe banking crisis in Japan in the 1990s, the Asian financial crisis that began in 1997, the global meltdown of 2008, and the Euro-zone crisis. He reviews the analytics of financial fragilities, credit frictions, currency crises, and balance of payments crises, and addresses international capital flows with information frictions. He then presents key developments in the New Keynesian analytical framework by examining the surge of re-modeling efforts aimed at the development of an analytical framework to underpin monetary and fiscal policy in the post-2008 economic era.

Автор: Feichtinger Johannes Название: Understanding Multiculturalism ISBN: 1785333445 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781785333446 Издательство: Berghahn Рейтинг: Цена: 31970.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
Multiculturalism has long been linked to calls for tolerance of cultural diversity, but today many observers are subjecting the concept to close scrutiny. After the political upheavals of 1968, the commitment to multiculturalism was perceived as a liberal manifesto, but in the post-9/11 era, it is under attack for its relativizing, particularist, and essentializing implications. The essays in this collection offer a nuanced analysis of the multifaceted cultural experience of Central Europe under the late Habsburg monarchy and beyond. The authors examine how culturally coded social spaces can be described and understood historically without adopting categories formerly employed to justify the definition and separation of groups into nations, ethnicities, or homogeneous cultures. As we consider the issues of multiculturalism today, this volume offers new approaches to understanding multiculturalism in Central Europe freed of the effects of politically exploited concepts of social spaces.
Автор: Salzman, Paul Название: Anthology of elizabethan prose fiction ISBN: 0199540578 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780199540570 Издательство: Oxford Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 12660.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: These five works - George Gascoigne`s The Adventures of Master F. J; John Lyly`s Euphues: The Anatomy of Wit; Robert Greene`s Pandosto. The Triumph of Time; Thomas Nashe`s The Unfortunate Traveller and Thomas Deloney`s Jack of Newbury - represent Elizabethan fiction at its best. The Adventures of Master F. J. is a comedy of manners with a sting in its tail. In Euphues John Lyly invented a new, elaboraterhetorical style which delighted its Elizabethan audience and has been praised or parodied ever since. Pandosto was Shakespeare`s source for The Winter`s Tale, but Greene`s is a darker story designed to shock the reader accustomed to romantic conventions. The Unfortunate Traveller marks the peak of Nashe`s gift for literary pastiche, mixing picaresque narrativewith mock-historical fantasy. Jack of Newbury dedicated to `All famous cloth Workers in England`, sums up important social contradictions in sharply observed comic scenes and brisk, witty dialogue.
