The subprime crisis and the global recession are almost over. But what will be their long-term consequences? In engaging prose, this book argues how crisis policies and growth policies alike are steering the world towards the "Age of the Twin Crises". It depicts an uncomfortable new reality for globalization, international relations, the market economy, and future economic growth. But it does map out an agenda for better markets and smarter government. Insightful and provocative - mixing economics, politics, history, and law - this book will be an inspiring and confrontational read for anyone interested in understanding the new post-meltdown world.
"Several books have a given us a clear analysis of how and why we got into trouble. Marc De Vos' insightful book is a timely warning on the course of crisis policies. It shows us how we can get out of the mess, what we should avoid, and why it is important we make the right choices in the months and years to come."
Karel De Gucht, Commissioner for Trade, European Union
“If we don’t want economic history to repeat itself, Marc De Vos’ book is a must-read analysis that also lays out a compelling, geopolitical economic roadmap for the world, especially the US , the EU and China
