Description
This book is about crises. The downturn due to the pandemic differs from the financial crisis, which only seemingly resembles the tulip mania during which tulips were sold for the price of family homes. However, most crises have something in common — they are the result of bubbles that someone inflated beforehand. This book describes the stories of the greatest economic crises from the tulip mania in the Netherlands, through the Great Depression, to the coronavirus pandemic. Against the backdrop of these stories, it explains how economists understand why economic bubbles form and what happens when they burst.
