The Return of the State?

Meer over het boek

In the aftermath of the 2008 economic crisis, the resurgence of state power challenges the previous neoliberal approach that minimized government intervention. Erhard Eppler explores the evolving role of the state in addressing market failures through rescue and stimulus measures, as well as nationalization of key financial sectors. He delves into critical questions about the responsibilities of the state versus the market and what civil society can rightfully expect from government, using a variety of historical and political examples globally.
