Each country proposed a range of policy initiatives to deal with its crisis. Policies that focused upon stabilizing the housing market formed the cornerstone of many of these proposals. This internationally focused book evaluates the genesis of the housing market bubble, the global viral contagion of the crisis, and the policy initiatives undertaken in some of the major economies of the world to counteract its disastrous affects.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnlike other books on the global crisis, this guide deals with the housing sector in addition to the financial sector of individual economies.
