The Theory of Crisis and the Great Recession in Spain

More about the book

The book explores economic crises through theoretical frameworks and debates among different economic schools. It provides an empirical analysis of Spain during the Great Recession, detailing the growth from 1995 to 2007-08, the ensuing depression until 2013-14, and the recovery phase. It highlights the contradictions within capital in a peripheral European economy, particularly during a real estate bubble, and examines Spain's significant role in the broader context of European capitalism.
