This study identifies the various economic crises that Malaysia has encountered since independence in 1957. Besides examining theoretical debates and causes of economic crises, it also discusses the economic impact of each of these cries in relation to the economy and looks at the policy measures adopted for each crisis. This is the first time that all crises since Malaysia's independence have been documented in a single volume. - Back cover.
