The International Debt Crisis in Historical Perspective

Book Description

This anatomy of financial crises shows that the worldwide debt crisis of the 1980s was not unprecedented and was even forecast by many. Eichengreen and Lindert bring together original studies that assess the historical record to see what lessons can be learned for resolving today's crisis.

"Me International Debt Crisis in Historical Perspective] demonstrates effectively how the historical perspective can help us understand the nature of international debt crises with particular recurring features such as reckless borrowing, excessive optimism of lenders, and the failure to recognize the time dimension in economic development... This stimulating volume shows the value of the historical perspective for policymakers, lenders, and borrowers when appraising foreign investment possibilities, dangers, and pitfalls. The future is not always like the past, but resembles it often enough for the past to be a relevant consideration. " - A. G. Ford, Economic History Review

Barry Eichengreen is Professor of Economics at the University of California, Berkeley. Peter H. Lindert is Professor of Economics at the University of California, Davis.

Not really happy with this book!.......2007-09-24

I was really excited about learning what the credit industry doesn't want you to know. I was very disappointed when I finished the book. Basically, everything that was in the book is common knowledge. I didn't find any thing new by reading this book. I am reading another book that is similiar that does have information that I was unaware of. So there are books that are helpful out there, just not this one!

I was disapointed.......2006-06-03

The book rambled and got off track often. I would have liked more practical and useable information.

Valuable Information.......2005-11-17

This book provides good insight into credit, how we get our credited reported and how to make changes to our credit report.

It gives you simple instructions to follow and even samples letters to use.

Good information to have whether or not you have credit problems. In this day and age with all the identity theft everyone should know the info in this book to repair any misinformation on their reports.

Great Book.......2005-10-17

Very helpful to consumers. Easy to read and understand. Now I know my rights. Highly recommend.

Credit Repair.......2005-09-25

Excellent advice from someone who knows how to give it. Rich DiMaggio provides straight to the point guidance to those who need it. We really appreciate all the help this book has given us.

Book Description

To compare Britain and Japan over the course of the last century is to juxtapose two societies at very different stages of development. This being the case the two countries still have many similarities including established systems of ritual and religious belief, empire and nationality, education, and large scale participation in two world wars. The application of Halsey’s model when comparing Britain and Japan creates a comprehensive analysis of two seemingly different countries evolving in the same international environment. Kenneth Brown’s use of literature covering the economic history of these countries over the last century is unique and will add greatly to existing material.

Customer Reviews:

Great resource.......2000-07-05

This books includes alot of great, sound information, and is detailed enough to allow a person to discuss the options with their attorney/CPA. It does not provide enough info to allow the nonprofessional to draft any documents. A little disappointed that nearly all of the wealth transfer techniques deal with CRTs. However, they are described in the context of their application in different scenarios, which provides a clear illustration of their benefits (which are significant). In summary, this book provided a number (about a dozen) great ideas for using ones assets to generate income while alive and transferring the assets to children with reduced estate taxes.

This new CTR report positions e-commerce as a 20th century economic phenomenon whose impact will escalate exponentially. Because exranets open internal business processes and applications to select partners, "Advanced E-business Strategies" examines the foundational role extranets play in successful e-business implementations by enabling several of the most practical e-business applications, such as virtual supply chain management (SCM) and customer relationship management (CRM). This report also examines how companies can use e-business to facilitate the structural shift from a departmental or product focus to a customer focus. E-commerce applications are the fastest growing segment of the Internet and can be acquired in several ways, and "Advanced E-business Strategies" examines the advantages and disadvantages of each strategy, including developing applications from scratch, investing in a commercial software package, and renting a Web site and the necessary programming support. In addition, this in-depth report outlines the process of creating an e-business strategy and examines the plan's requirements, including executive-level support, a long-term budget, and regular revisions. The report also helps companies avoid common implementation mistakes, such as legal entanglements, e-mail broadcasts, invading customer privacy, not protecting the supply chain, and ignoring the threat of hack attacks and site obsolescence. E-business represents a fundamental shift in how companies conduct business. Some organizations will ignore or downplay this tectonic shift, but savvy organizations will begin formulating their strategies immediately and monitoring next-generation Internet initiatives. Organizations that embrace e-business will distinguish themselves from their competitors and quickly outpace them. CTR's "Advanced E-business Strategies" can help.

One of the best.......2006-03-15

Hard for me to belive that anyone could "hate" this book. Apparently uncomfortable with the Christian message, but it's not written to make people comfortable. My wife and I loved this book and have referred back to its wisdom many times. Could not recommend it more highly to couples. It will strengthen your marriage.

Pearls to Believers.......2001-08-23

This an excellent book for couples to work through the challenges that money and marriage usually bring. Especially helpful in developing a purpose for your marriage for those believing couples that want to not only grow in their marriage but in their walk with the Lord.

Useful questionnaire included to inspire communication on various levels and subjects.

God! This was terrible.......2001-02-08

This book was a big disappointment. It turned out to be a Christian-based approach to money management that was not mentioned in the editorial. I hated it.

Book Description

Packed with practical advice and detailed with case examples and handy tips, this book shows how the theory of forming a rewarding relationship between supplier and customer can be put into practice. It describes how to win and retain customers.

Book Description

The European Union is on the brink of fundamental change. Just as the EU is about to enlarge radically, the Convention on the Future of Europe may transform it into a political entity governed by a constitution. This timely volume brings together a world-class group of scholars and practitioners to examine the fundamentals of integration in an expanding EU.The contributors are a mix of leading theorists and practitioners, spanning the principal disciplines with an interest in European integration. They explore key questions about the nature of the EU, its structure and procedures, but also take a more profound look at the social, political and economic dimensions of integration and their relevance for a revitalised European Union.

Book Description

This Report analyses how the geographic pattern of production and employment in Europe will be affected by market integration, increased direct investment, more mobile financial capital and a sharper, global division of labour. The authors then trace the implications of such changes for local policy (local tax, expenditure and industrial policy) and finally discuss how the subsidiary principle should be implemented to ensure that local policies contribute to overall economic efficiency and other common goals.
