Abstract

After the Global Financial Crisis, we failed to borrow to invest in a low-carbon economy and instead prematurely adopted austerity policies. The result, says Dimitri Zenghelis (LSE), was a wasted decade of rising emissions, stagnating average wages and eroded trust in institutions. We now badly need to encourage sustainable and inclusive growth.
