From a prizewinning economic historian, an eye-opening reinterpretation of the 2008 economic crisis (and its ten-year aftermath) as a global event that directly led to the shockwaves being felt around the world today.
In September 2008 President George Bush could still describe the financial crisis as an incident local to Wall Street. In fact it was a dramatic caesura of global significance that spiraled around the world, from the financial markets of the UK and Europe to the factories and dockyards of Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America, forcing a rearrangement of global governance. In the United States and Europe, it caused a fundamental reconsideration of capitalist democracy, eventually leading to the war in the Ukraine, the chaos of Greece, Brexit, and Trump.
It was the greatest crisis to have struck Western societies since the end of the Cold War, but was it inevitable? And is it over? Crashed is a dramatic new narrative resting on original themes: the haphazard nature of economic development and the erratic path of debt around the world; the unseen way individual countries and regions are linked together in deeply unequal relationships through financial interdependence, investment, politics, and force; the ways the financial crisis interacted with the spectacular rise of social media, the crisis of middle-class America, the rise of China, and global struggles over fossil fuels.
Finally, Tooze asks, given this history, what now are the prospects for a liberal, stable, and coherent world order?
##頗為麵麵俱到,很不錯地梳理瞭08到17這十年裏各類國際大事之間的韆絲萬縷。
評分##4.5.對事件的梳理可以更精煉,對政治經濟的分析與批判可以更深入,但作為一部總結性的後金融危機全球史其整理與啓發作用是巨大的。
評分##過去十年最好的曆史書之一吧
評分##one of the best researched and written books I've ever came across. Linking all major events mapping a global view with meaningful details. How did we end up here, how is one thing connected to another, what does everything mean, and where are we going? big questions well addressed with solid data and sound arguments

評分##陸陸續續讀瞭5個月的一本厚書,神作!讀書筆記flag×2. 經濟的事兒不單純是經濟的事兒,跟geopolitical alpha裏的分析框架有些相似之處,更宏大也更有意思。
評分##對我來說還是有點難讀。過去二十年中國嵌入世界經濟體係,真正脫鈎是很難的。中美關係絕非僅僅是對抗,frienemy 也許更準確。如遇大危機,中美除瞭閤作彆無其它可能。高通脹使得美國不可能擺脫中國,外貿為主的結構也讓中國無法脫鈎世界。
評分##Coming up with an outline in the next few days
