Abstract
When the Aftermath Network assembled in early 2009, our scholarly mission was based on a seemingly self-evident model of contemporary history. An economic crisis occurred in the fall of 2008. We would examine its aftermath, with special attention to its cultural dimensions. Crisis and aftermath, cause and effect: it seemed straightforward.
