The global financial crisis of 2007-09 highlighted the economic interdependencies between all major countries, raising the issues of international cooperation. Managing Complexity looks at how, following the global financial crisis, countries have changed the way they cooperate with each other on matters of economic policy.
This book provides an authoritative account of the economic and political roots of the 2008 financial crisis, examining why it was triggered in the United States and its lasting impact on both the American and global economies.
Focusing on the political and social dimensions of the crisis, contributors examine changes in relationships between the world's richer and poorer countries, efforts to strengthen global institutions, and difficulties facing states trying to create stability for their citizens.
