	Late 1980s recession - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The recession of the late nineteen-eighties was an economic recession that hit much of the world beginning in 1987.
		According to the economists' definition of a recession, two quarters of negative growth, the late eighties recession only covered a brief period in 1987 (although not in the United States), and another in 1990–1991.
		In Australia, Paul Keating, the Australian Federal Treasurer during this recession, referred to it as the "recession we had to have." This quote became a cornerstone of the Liberal Party's campaign during the 1993 election, as it seemed to underscore the Labor Party's ineffective management of the national economy.

	State Employment 1995: Slowing to a Recession? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Recessions and state-level employment declines are, in the simplest terms, almost tautologically related: National recessions necessarily affect many states.
		Finally, without regard to a national recession, there can be substantial regional differences in the strength of the local economy, which probably influences public opinion on the strength of the national economy.
		The size and rate of this decline are considerable, and parallel the declines in 1985 and 1989, prior to the "bumpy landing" of the mid-eighties and the recession that began in 1990.

	US recession now official: "new economy" expansion one of weakest on record (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The official ending of the longest period of expansion on record has raised a number of questions as to the nature of economic growth in the decade of the 1990s, particularly the “new economy” of its latter years.
		While the expansion of the 1990s was the longest recorded—the previous record was the 1961-69 expansion which lasted for eight years and 10 months—it does not compare favourably with other expansionary phases in the post-war business cycle.
		This was slower than the 0.8 percent growth rate in the eighties and well below the 1.9 percent growth rate of the sixties.

		The eighties was a time of great optimism with home owners seeing their property values increase beyond belief for many, there was a lemming like scramble to mortgage up to the hilt to move up market as house prices were zooming ever upwards.
		First time buyers were trying to get their feet on the ladder, and second time buyers were keen to better themselves and move up market, and despite mortgage interest rates hitting 15% there was the belief that there were big profits to be made from property price inflation, and that 'you couldn't lose'.
		The bursting of the bubble and the slide towards the recession came in with the crash of late 80's, and many with a high loan to value mortgage found themselves in 'negative equity'.

		SCOTTISH house prices are rising faster than at any time since the housing boom of the late 1980s, with few signs of any impending slowdown.
		The latest rise is unlikely to provide any comfort to the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee as the interest rate-setters remain trapped between the competing demands of the slowing world economy and surging levels of consumer debt.
		He said the prospect of a sudden crash was unlikely as there were fewer first-time buyers compared with the late 1980s and debt levels were not as high as they were then.

		And even then, nobody is predicting a return to the good old days of the late eighties, when many books expanded their ad-page counts at a double-digit pace.

	OUP: Major Recessions: Dow
		Major recessions happened at a similar time in all major countries, and the lessons are general.
		Three main conclusions are reached: (1) major recessions reflect abrupt fallings off in demand, not supply; (2) these are due to identifiable demand shocks and by swings in consumer and business confidence which amplify the direct effects of demand shock; (3) major recessions are not predictable.
		In the final chapter, Christopher Dow puts forward an insider's view on how to avoid future severe recessions: action must be taken to control booms, which if uncontrolled will lead to a period of bust, and once a major recession has begun, fiscal and monetary policy must be adjusted to mitigate the downturn.
