Recenzje

"Vermeiren's Crisis and Inequality is a lucid book that analyses the shift from Keynesianism to neoliberalism and the resulting bifurcation of debt-driven and export-driven growth models, the global financial crisis and the ensuing secular stagnation. It offers a clear examination of the impact of rising inequality and economic instability. This is an important book that demonstrates the vitality of the growth models approach to political economy."Engelbert Stockhammer, King's College London"A must-read on inequality, firmly anchored where it should be, in the politics of macroeconomic policy regimes."Daniela Gabor, University of the West of England, Bristol "Erudite, comprehensive, and stimulating, Crisis and Inequality is the best introduction to economic issues for political science students that I have read... It is an invaluable service to the discipline."Scott Lavery, Sheffield Political Economy Research Institute (SPERI)
