In the months that followed, most of the so-called East Asian Tigers faced severe balance-of-payments crises, and a year later, in August 1998, the Russian ruble was devalued. As a result of this succession of crises, the economics profession rethought many of its views on macroeconomic management. Lessons were drawn from the experience, and policy blueprints for avoiding future crises were developed.
