«El retorno de la economía de la depresión: y la crisis actual» is the economic essay by Paul Krugman, published by Editorial Crítica in paperback.
Krugman links the crises of the late 1990s in Japan, Russia and Latin America with the 2008 global recession and the Great Depression. The book's thesis is that conventional remedies fail and that obsolete economic ideas are the greatest danger in the face of regulatory failures in a global financial system.
It belongs to the Letras de Crítica collection (number 1). Paul Krugman received the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2008. Translation by Jordi Pascual and Ferrán Esteve.
A popularizing essay for readers who want to understand the world economy and financial crises without needing to be specialists.
