Abstract

The state and national economies are now feeling the brunt of the global economic crisis. So far, the pattern of events in the Commonwealth has mirrored that of the nation. This is not surprising, since the source of the problem — the global slowdown and financial uncertainty — is an external shock that affects all the nation’s regions through international trade and financial markets.
