Myopic adherence to the worldview arguably played a large part in causing the meltdown. The policy toolkit derived from the worldview was summed up in John Williamson's famous 1989 checklist, The Washington Consensus. We now know that investment bankers who preached to us were not running a free market. I argue therefore that the ideology, the ideology which has almost been a patina over reality, not only mis-described reality but helped crash the system. Thank you.
