Yet public policy often focuses on average or likely outcomes, minimizing the danger of extreme events. 'Worst-Case Economics: Extreme Events in Climate and Finance' explores the underlying causes and the remedies needed for the most serious climate and financial risks.

Hardback. Zustand: New. Worst-case scenarios are all too real, and all too common. The financial crisis of 2008 was not the first or the last to destroy jobs, homeownership and the savings of millions of people. Hurricanes clobber communities from New York to Bangladesh. How bad will the next catastrophe be, and how soon will it happen?Climate and financial crises are serious events, requiring vigorous responses. Yet public policy is trapped in an obsolete framework, with a simplistic focus on average or likely outcomes rather than dangerous extremes. What would it take to create better analyses of extreme events in climate and finance, and an appropriate policy framework for worst-case risks? 'Worst-Case Economics: Extreme Events in Climate and Finance' offers accessible and surprising answers to these crucial questions. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers LU-9781783087075
