The reasoning is an application of the theory of global games, first studied by Carlsson and van Damme (1993). The advantage of the global games approach is that it permits a unique mapping between the realisation of economic fundamentals and the beliefs of creditors. This means that signals about fundamentals serve as a device that coordinates beliefs on a particular outcome. The coordination device is not some random sunspot, but a payoff-dependent variable that matters to investors. Since private signals cannot be directly observed, an abrupt shift from one equilibrium to another can still occur without any change in observable fundamentals.
Another strand of the literature, notably Eichengreen et al. (1996a) and Forbes and Rigobon (2001), considers the spillover effects of crisis. These papers concentrate on the notion of ‘contagion’, and tackle the broad question of whether contagion actually exists and, if so, how it propagates. Chui (2002) surveys and evaluates both types of study. He argues that the forecasting performance of so-called ‘early warning systems’ is mixed. The poor predictive power reflects a number of factors: difficulties in defining the dependent variable (or a crisis), changes in the structural relationships in an economy, overemphasis on some crisis-specific indicators, and technical problems such as data quality and revision.
