Sommario/riassunto

Jan A. Kregel is considered to be 'the best all-round general economist alive' (G. C. Harcourt). This is the first collection of his essays dealing with a wide range of topics reflecting the incredible depth and breadth of Kregel's work. These essays focus on the role of finance in development and growth. Kregel has expanded Minsky's original postulate that in capitalist economies stability engenders instability in international economy, and this volume collects Kregel's key works devoted to financial instability, its causes and effects. The volume also contains Kregel's most recent discussions of the Great Recession beginning in 2008.

Sommario/riassunto

"Since the publication of the first edition, the authors have solicited feedback from both the instructors who use the book as a text for their courses as well as the researchers who use the book as a resource for their research. Thus, the improved Second Edition of Applied Longitudinal Analysis features many additions and revisions based on the feedback of readers, making it the go-to reference for applied use in public health, epidemiology, and pharmaceutical sciences"--
