Beschreibungen
From the Great Depression in the twentieth century to the Great Recession in the twenty-first, systemic banking crises have been a recurring problem for both developing and developed countries. This book offers a human rights perspective on financial crises vis-à-vis low-income and least developed countries. It systematically analyzes government’s commitment to women’s economic rights and basic human rights during systemic banking crises. The book combines a wealth of data with rich theoretical arguments that weave together distinct but related bodies of literature from international development, human rights, and political economy.
1. Introduction.- 2. A Theory of Human Rights during Recession.- 3. An Empirical Investigation of Human Rights in Recession.- 4. Conclusion.

<p>“A probing and sophisticated analysis of the relationship between ever more precarious human rights and ever more common financial crises.”</p>
<p>—<b>Joel Blau</b>, Professor Emeritus of Social Policy, Stony Brook University, USA </p>

“The central questions Gautam studies here—which segments of society suffer the most during financial crises and why—are vital and timely. His thoughtful investigation teaches us a lot about the distributional implications of financial crises and how political institutions mitigate or magnify those implications.”</p>
<p>—<b>Joel Simmons</b>, Associate Professor, Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University, USA</p>
