Charles P. Kindleberger was a prominent American economic historian and author renowned for his extensive body of work, which includes over 30 books. His influential book “Manias, Panics, and Crashes” focused on speculative stock market bubbles and gained renewed attention after the dot-com bubble. Kindleberger is known for his contributions to the development of hegemonic stability theory, which highlights the importance of a dominant power in maintaining a stable international monetary system. Referred to as “the master of the genre” in financial crisis analysis by The Economist, Kindleberger’s work continues to shape economic thought.
