Some economic historic perspectives on the 2009 world trade collapse

Research output: Working paper › Academic

Abstract

The paper puts the collapse of the world trade volume in 2009 into two
historic perspectives. First, the paper analyses 18 major post-1980/pre-2007
financial crises and uses these observations as a basis to critically evaluate
presently available projections for world trade. Second, the paper takes into
account the developments in the world's trade volume and openness since
1880. Next to the direct impact of the present financial crisis on trade,
potential second order effects on economic growth and international political
relations are identified
