How are global crises, such as the current financial crisis, responded and dealt
with? What are the consequences? Are there any links between regionalism and
global crises in terms of stimuli, processes, and consequences? This edited
volume brings together a range of examples to illustrate the development and
importance of regional actors in the global governance of the political economy.
Regionalising Global Crises highlights the regional level dynamics that
exacerbate or contribute to solving the global economic crisis. It also explores
the potential for change in the governance of the global political economy and
international financial architecture by assessing the current and past financial
crises through regional lenses.
