In 1999, in The Return of Depression Economics, Paul Krugman surveyed the economic crises that had swept across Asia and Latin America, and pointed out that those crises were a warning for all of us: like diseases that have become resistant to antibiotics, the economic maladies that caused the Great Depression were making a comeback. In the years that followed, as Wall Street boomed and financial wheeler-dealers made vast profits, the international crises of the 1990s faded from memory. But now depression economics has come to America: when the great housing bubble of the mid-2000s burst, the

"Pop internationalists", people who speak impressively about international trade while ignoring basic economics and misusing economic figures, are the target of this collection of Paul Krugman’s essays. He considers how such people can distort the basic truths about world trade.

Nobel Prize winning economist Paul Krugman shows how today’s crisis parallels the events that caused the Great Depression - and explains what it will take to avoid catastrophe. In 1999, Paul surveyed the economic crisis that had swept across Asia and Latin America, and warned that those crises were a warning for all of us: like diseases that have become resistant to antibiotics, the economic maladies that caused the Great Depression were making a comeback.

An der wissenschaftlichen Reputation von Paul Krugman sind Zweifel kaum erlaubt. Manchen gilt der Princeton-Professor sogar als einer der dringendsten Anwärter auf den Nobelpreis für Wirtschaftswissenschaften. Umso weniger Ansehen wird Krugman deshalb im Hause Bush genießen. Der Regierung von deren Spross George Walker nämlich hat der Ökonom in den vergangenen Jahren immer wieder Zeugnisse ausgestellt, die schlechter kaum hätten ausfallen können. Und dies nicht in den Publikationsorganen, in denen Krugmans wissenschaftliche Arbeiten ansonsten zu erscheinen p

Why do certain ideas gain currency in economics while others fall by the wayside? Paul Krugman argues that the unwillingness of mainstream economists to think about what they could not formalize led them to ignore ideas that turn out, in retrospect, to have been very good ones. Krugman examines the course of economic geography and development theory to shed light on the nature of economic inquiry. He traces how development theory lost its huge initial influence and virtually disappeared from economic discourse after it became clear that many of the theory’s main insights could not be cle

"I have spent my whole professional life as an international economist thinking and writing about economic geography, without being aware of it," begins Paul Krugman in the readable and anecdotal style that has become a hallmark of his writings. Krugman observes that his own shortcomings in ignoring economic geography have been shared by many professional economists, primarily because of the lack of explanatory models. In Geography and Trade he provides a stimulating synthesis of ideas in the literature and describes new models for implementing a study of economic geography that could change t

In an intriguing synthesis of current theories of international finance, trade, and industrial organization, Paul Krugman presents a provocative analysis of the extraordinary volatility of exchange rates in the 1980s. Krugman focuses on imperfect integration of the world economy, showing how this has become both a cause and effect of exchange rate instability. He outlines the costs and benefits of recent flexible-exchange rate policies and offers fresh insight into why the models that worked in the first half of the 1980s don’t work in the growing uncertainty of the latter half.
