摘要

The global financial crisis hit in 2008 with a devastating impact on the world's national economies. The rest is history, as they say. The consequent unravelling of much of the postwar world's capitalist framework has been dramatic. But while the collapse of banking sectors and financial institutions has been uncomfortable, the collapse of global confidence seems to have had a more insidious effect. There are certain harsh economic realities that have had a detrimental impact on people's lives and livelihoods, but there is now no clear understanding of, no real belief in, how we should get out of this mess.
