What can or should be done to ward off or alleviate the effect of financial crises? The papers in this book examine this question, focusing on particular crises, notably those of 1836, 1873, 1920 and 1929. The book is based on the papers and proceedings of a conference held in Bad Homberg, West Germany, in May 1979.
