One of our wisest and most clear-eyed economic thinkers offers a masterful narrative of the crisis and its lessons
Many fine books on the financial crisis were first drafts of history—books written to fill the need for immediate understanding. Alan S. Blinder, esteemed Princeton professor, Wall Street Journal columnist, and former deputy chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, held off, taking the time to understand the crisis and to think his way through to a truly comprehensive and coherent narrative of how the worst economic crisis in postwar American history happened, what the government did to fight it, and what we can do from here—mired as we still are in its wreckage.
With bracing clarity, Blinder shows us how the U.S. financial system, which had grown far too complex for its own good—and too unregulated for the public good—experienced a perfect storm beginning in 2007. Things started unraveling when the much-chronicled housing bubble burst, but the ensuing implosion of what Blinder calls the “bond bubble” was larger and more devastating. Some people think of the financial industry as a sideshow with little relevance to the real economy—where the jobs, factories, and shops are. But finance is more like the circulatory system of the economic body: if the blood stops flowing, the body goes into cardiac arrest. When America’s financial structure crumbled, the damage proved to be not only deep, but wide. It took the crisis for the world to discover, to its horror, just how truly interconnected—and fragile—the global financial system is. Some observers argue that large global forces were the major culprits of the crisis. Blinder disagrees, arguing that the problem started in the U.S. and was pushed abroad, as complex, opaque, and overrated investment products were exported to a hungry world, which was nearly poisoned by them.
The second part of the story explains how American and international government intervention kept us from a total meltdown. Many of the U.S. government’s actions, particularly the Fed’s, were previously unimaginable. And to an amazing—and certainly misunderstood—extent, they worked. The worst did not happen. Blinder offers clear-eyed answers to the questions still before us, even if some of the choices ahead are as divisive as they are unavoidable. After the Music Stopped is an essential history that we cannot afford to forget, because one thing history teaches is that it will happen again.
目前不想讀金融危機的書
評分很平庸的一本書。以後再也不看5年內齣的非專業書籍瞭,純粹浪費生命。
評分National Economic Issues的讀物,老師說是她朋友寫的(跪),特彆客觀特彆詳細,反正比宏經課上學的substantive不少
評分瞭解和分析金融危機最好的一本讀物。唯一一顆星扣在瞭政治傾嚮上。作為一個民主黨議員,自由派的傾嚮非常明顯。在發生危機的時候強調政府的調控,對保守派的Moral Hazard擔憂嗤之以鼻
評分沒有過多的技術性知識,並隨書附贈詳細的知識點解讀 LOL
文/严杰夫 美国司法部部长8月21日宣布,已与美国银行达成一项总价166亿美元的和解协议,以终结针对后者违规出售住房贷款抵押证券的调查。尽管这张“史上最贵罚单”相当于过去三年美国银行的盈利总和,但还算是划算的“买卖”。此前,摩根大通和花旗银行达成的和解协议的罚款额...
評分作者是经济学教授,曾任克林顿总统时期的特别经济顾问,因此其探析2008年金融危机的角度是偏学术性质的,缺少一定的实操性和对复杂经济金融政治环境的分析把控能力。但因其理论性立场,对金融危机本质的分析是比较到位的——底层资产即抵押贷款资产的不可靠性、以及相关金融市...
評分正如标题所言,在看过《当音乐停止之后》,结合我国当年的4万亿经济刺激计划,谈几点自己的看法。 1.书中每项措施言必谈法律依据,有无违法。 2.虽然提及两党合作的基础不在,但还是说明了政策的延续性。 3.关键点“刺激法案中基本上没花纳税人的钱,还略有盈余”,这是大家都...

評分强力推荐给有一定宏观经济学基础知识、且对金融危机有一定了解的专业人士。和《大而不倒》这样趣味性更强、试图还原决策过程的书不同,这本经济学家的著作显然更深入,当然相对也较为枯燥一些。 作为受尊敬的知名经济学家,Blinder行文严谨,让事实说话,举例子又比较浅显易懂...
