The Mother of All Crises?

Claudia Sanchez Bajo and Bruno Roelants

Chapter 1 in Capital and the Debt Trap, 2011, pp 5-44 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract There is no doubt that we have been going through a grave global financial-economic crisis, but is this the mother of all crises? Without pretending to cover all aspects and leaving the explanations and analyses to Chapter 2, we here present the facts, as well as the perceptions and reactions of some key actors during the crisis up to the end of 2010. We are not, at this stage, making much reference to previous bubbles and crises, leaving the discussion for the following chapter. We are taking an inductive approach, as a necessary step before engaging in deeper layers of analysis.
