Abstract
In 2008, financial markets plummeted and took much of the global economy down with them. This was not, however, the only significant drop in the early twenty-first century. The decade began with the boom and bust of the dot-com bubble, or, more generally, of the InfoTech sector. Viewing the 2008 financial crisis through a wider lens that includes the preceding InfoTech boom-bust, one can draw conclusions about the nature of economic volatility in the information economy and about the tools of government to deal with such volatility.
