- Title
Seven crashes: The economic crises that shaped globalisation.

- Abstract
Professor Harold James' book, "Seven crashes: The economic crises that shaped globalization," explores the uneven and erratic development of globalization. The book examines seven major economic crises throughout history, including the Great Famine, the Great Revolt, the Great War, the Great Depression, the Great Inflation, and more recent crises. While the book provides interesting and thoughtful insights, it does not directly address whether these crises are exogenous or endogenous to the process of globalization. Overall, the book offers a rewarding exploration of economic history and raises important questions about the relationship between globalization and crises.
