Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report, published by the U.S. Government and the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission in early 2011, is the official government report on the United States financial collapse and the review of major financial institutions that bankrupted and failed, or would have without help from the government. The commission and the report were implemented after Congress passed an act in 2009 to review and prevent fraudulent activity. The report details, among other things, the periods before, during, and after the crisis, what led up to it, and analyses of subprime mortgage lending, credit expansion and banking policies, the collapse of companies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the federal bailouts of Lehman and AIG. It also discusses the aftermath of the fallout and our current state. This report should be of interest to anyone concerned about the financial situation in the U.S. and around the world.THE FINANCIAL CRISIS INQUIRY COMMISSION is an independent, bi-partisan, government-appointed panel of 10 people that was created to "examine the causes, domestic and global, of the current financial and economic crisis in the United States." It was established as part of the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009. The commission consisted of private citizens with expertise in economics and finance, banking, housing, market regulation, and consumer protection. They examined and reported on "the collapse of major financial institutions that failed or would have failed if not for exceptional assistance from the government."News Dissector DANNY SCHECHTER is a journalist, blogger and filmmaker.

Download or read book From Slave Trade to Legitimate Commerce written by Robin Law and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-08-08 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection, written by eleven leading specialists, examines the nineteenth-century commercial transition in West Africa: the ending of the Atlantic slave trade and the development of alternative forms of 'legitimate' trade, mainly in vegetable products. Approaching the subject from an African, rather than a European or American, perspective, the case studies consider the effects of transition on the African societies involved. They offer significant insights into the history of pre-colonial Africa and the slave trade, the origins of European imperialism, and longer-term issues of economic development in Africa.

Download or read book Catch up and Crisis in Korea written by Wontack Hong and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Korea has experienced one of the most profound economic transformations of any nation in history, and remains a very important focus of academic inquiry. Whilst the process of catch-up in Korea - led by export-oriented growth - has been rapid and, in a sense, very successful, it has also been subject to turbulence, not least in a crisis of near bankruptcy that has dramatically revealed its Achilles heel. Informed by the 1997 crisis, Wontack Hong writes a new history of the Korean economy; one that seeks to understand export-oriented catch-up in newly industrialized countries (NICs) whilst offering a realistic appraisal and forewarning of the pitfalls which could signal self-destruction. Catch-up and Crisis in Korea offers a balanced perspective on the Korean economy, and on newly industrialized countries in general, for those who have a serious interest in understanding the industrialization process.

This book makes all these papers internationally available for all scientists, helping them in their research activities and the annotations facilitate the searching work by species and keywords.

Download or read book Catching Up And Falling Behind Post communist Transformation In Historical Perspective written by David A Dyker and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2004-07-05 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of essays David A Dyker explores some of the most difficult and fascinating aspects of the process of transition from autocratic “real socialism” to a capitalism that is sometimes democratic, sometimes authoritarian. The stress is on the economic dimension of transformation, but the author sets the economic drama firmly within a political economy framework and a historical perspective. Trends in key economic variables are analysed against the background of the struggle between different social and political groups for power and command over resources. While the book pays due attention to topical issues like EU enlargement, the underlying perspective is a long-term one. Transition is viewed not as a set of once-and-for-all institutional changes or a process of short-term stabilisation, but as a historic opportunity to solve the inherited problem of poverty and underdevelopment in Central-East Europe and the former Soviet Union. The book ends with a critical assessment of how economics, as a discipline, has coped with the challenge of that historic opportunity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Untersuchungsperiode schließt den Zeitraum vom Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts bis zu den 1960er Jahren ein, somit beide Weltkriege und die Depression der 1930er Jahre. Erstmals wird der Versuch unternommen, die Vorkriegs-, Zwischenkriegs- und Nachkriegsjahre durch konsistente Langzeitreihen für Produktion, Beschäftigung und damit zusammenhängenden Faktoren wie Löhnen und Kapitaleinsatz abzudecken und dabei Indikatoren für alle bedeutenden Industriezweige der Niederlande vorzulegen. Die Wachstumsleistung der niederländischen Industrie im 20. Jahrhundert wird unter Verwendung des Instrumentariums der international-vergleichenden Produktivitätsmessung mit derjenigen Belgiens, Großbritanniens und Deutschlands in Beziehung gesetzt. Zusammen mit der komparativen Perspektive ermöglichen nicht zuletzt die neuen Wirtschaftsdaten, die hier erstmalig präsentiert werden, eine neuartige Präsentation der Wirkungen sowohl der Weltwirtschaftskrise als auch der beiden Weltkriege auf die niederländische Wirtschaft.
