Economists and policy makers can gain insights as to how a globalized economy can take advantage of international trade, labor mobility, its international financial links, while at the same time navigate shocks like the 2008 global financial crisis. It discusses the collapse of the Soviet Union and the massive wave of high skill immigration to Israel which followed; the Great Moderation in inflation and employment fluctuations in the advanced economies, and the convergence of Israel's inflation to the low world inflation rates; the 2008 Global Financial Crisis and the surprising robust performance of the Israeli economy; the rise of the Asian markets, recently opened up to Israel's exports, which became abundant source of outward foreign direct investments; the global information technology surge and its spillovers to the emerging high-tech sector in Israel; brain drain facilitated by Israel's higher education system; and the economic implications of the Palestinian-Israeli crisis. In addition to analyzing the past and current state of Israel, the book compares developments within the Israeli economy to developed and emerging-market economies in similar circumstances. It combines economic theory with empirical evidence, and includes a review of the literature covering earlier stages of Israel's economic development. 001386013 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386013 650_0 $$aGlobalization$$xEconomic aspects$$zIsrael. 001386013 650_0 $$aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009. 001386013 651_0 $$aIsrael$$xEconomic conditions$$y20th century. 001386013 651_0 $$aIsrael$$xEconomic conditions$$y21st century. 001386013 651_0 $$aIsrael$$xEmigration and immigration$$xEconomic aspects. 001386013 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Political Economy 001386013 653__ $$aECONOMICS/International Economics 001386013 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Trade & Development 001386013 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386013 852__ $$bebk 001386013 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/11350.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386013 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386013 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386013$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386013 980__ $$aBIB 001386013 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386013 982__ $$aEbook 001386013 983__ $$aOnline
