Recenzje

I found this is an exciting and very thought provoking book, making me think both more and differently about the Eurozone's crises. First, thinking seriously about the surplus countries (after being so focussed on the pathologies of Southern Europe) is a great and illuminating discipline. Second, and based on distributional conflicts, it provides a carefully thought out and original analytic framework. And third it is seriously - hence really usefully - comprehensive and reliable. Based on Walter's major research programme, it represents the high level of intellectual results which can come from intense and coordinated collaboration.
