Abstract

Chapter 9 discusses global imbalances. Global imbalances have generated the conditions for crisis, from the Great Depression through the Great Recession. Imbalances in currency stability and power, government debt, trade deficits, financial stocks and flows, have repeatedly laid the foundation for crisis. The success of the intentional, imposed stability and balance of the Bretton Woods period provides the exception that proves the rule: global imbalances allow crisis conditions to arise and ripen. Keywords: global imbalances, current account deficit, Bretton Woods, currency instability, financial instability
