World trade experienced a sudden, severe and synchronised collapse in late 2008 – the sharpest in recorded history and deepest since WWII. VoxEU today posts a new Ebook – written for the world’s trade ministers gathering for the WTO’s Trade Ministerial in Geneva – that presents the economics profession’s received wisdom on the collapse. A seasonal hat tip to Diane Coyle for flagging this new resource up via her excellent blog. Here is Diane’s recent review of Super Freakonomics - a book that kept me going on a long flight to Hong Kong but which will forever gather dust on my bookshelves.
