    About this ebook

    Crashed: How a Decade of Financial Crises Changed the World by Adam Tooze: Conversation Starters


    “Crashed: How a Decade of Financial Crises Changed the World” was written by Adam Tooze, an award-winning economic historian. In it, the author deconstructs the economic crisis of 2008 (and the ten years that came after) and explains how this global event directly impacted countries worldwide until today. In America and Europe, the crisis caused governments to reconsider the capitalist democracy; and this eventually led to the war in Ukraine, the chaos of Greece, Trump, and Brexit. Tooze wonders if this crisis was inevitable and if it’s over.
    A New York Times bestseller, “Crashed” was defined by Martin Wolf, from The Financial Times, as a thoroughly and flawlessly researched account of the sources and consequences of the wave of economic crises that hit the world since 2007.
