Written in the midst of the deepest economic crisis since the Great Depression, Aftershocks contains twenty-four essays-based on interviews with scholars, prominent European politicians, and leading figures from business and banking-that reflect on the origins of the crisis as well as the possible social, economic, and political transformations it may engender. Among the many contributors are Barry Eichengreen, Tony Atkinson, David Soskice, Nancy Birdsall, Amitai Etzioni, Helmut Schmidt, and Jacques Delors.
