Reader reviews for After the Crash: Designing a Depression-Free Economy

From the publisher

This book analyzes in a new way the causes of the current crash by showing how such events derive from real estate bubbles and their interactions with banks and other lenders.

  • Analyzes the current crisis of the real estate crash and explains the recurring cycle which led to it
  • Examines why frequent assessments are crucial to making the property tax an effective method of preventing speculative real estate bubbles
  • Combines theoretical analysis with observed cycles of land speculation to demonstrate the impact on the modern economy

From the rear cover

This book analyzes in a new way the causes of the current crash by showing how such events derive from real estate bubbles and their interactions with banks and other lenders. It explains the current crisis, but in the process, the author develops a general theory of capital (drawing on Wicksell) showing how excessive investing in durable capital of slow payback can destabilize and then freeze up a modern economy, which requires constant circulation and renewal of capital to function. Combining that analysis with observed cycles of land speculation, Gaffney shows how a "perfect storm" formed and now has overwhelmed the economy.
