But now depression economics has come to America: when the great housing bubble of the mid-2000s burst, the U.S. financial system proved as vulnerable as those of developing countries caught up in earlier crises - and a replay of the 1930s seems all too possible. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this new, greatly updated edition of \u003ci\u003eThe Return of Depression Economics\u003c\/i\u003e, Krugman shows how the failure of regulation to keep pace with an increasingly out-of-control financial system set the United States, and the world as a whole, up for the greatest financial crisis since the 1930s. He also lays out the steps that must be taken to contain the crisis, and turn around a world economy sliding into a deep recession. Brilliantly crafted in Krugman''s trademark style-lucid, lively, and supremely informed - this new edition of \u003ci\u003eThe Return of Depression Economics\u003c\/i\u003e will become an instant cornerstone of the debate over how to respond to the crisis.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57554545475966,"sku":"NW9781846142390","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781846142390.jpg?v=1783191704","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-usa\/products\/return-of-depression-economics","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
