The explicit purpose of the meeting, as the title of this book implies, was to integrate the recent post 2007-2008 crisis into economic thought on these subjects. How exactly, did the crisis impact economic thought in these fields? Unfortunately not at all. Of all the speeches given, there is no discussion of how the current economic crisis has impacted theories and thought on these subjects. This book could have been written, for all practical purposes, before the crisis even occurred. It is as if the book defeats its own purpose.
