Synopsis

The neoliberal project was dealt a critical blow in the waning months of the Bush administration by the crushing tide of recession sweeping the globe. But the hegemony of the United States and of the international institutions it has used to maintain its economic dominance has been in decline for some years now. Here leading scholars take up the challenge of examining the current state of economic crisis and the variety of ways in which different countries are responding to it.
