Normal recessions, such as those of 1991 and 2000, will see the Keynesian tools (fiscal stimulus and tax cuts) and lowered interest rates (monetary stimulation) redress the economy in a matter months. This will lead to economic recovery and expansion. Blinder says that even the severe recession of 1982, also known as the Great Recession at the time, falls within the definition of a normal recession. The standard tools will work.

Fellow economist Alan Blinder credits both Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff with describing highly relevant aspects of the 2008 financial institution near- meltdown and resulting serious recession.

In both 2011 and 2012 she was included in the 50 Most Influential ranking of Bloomberg Markets.

By contrast, the 2008 near-meltdown destroyed parts of the financial system and left other parts reeling and in serious need of de-leveraging. Large amounts of governmental debt, household debt, corporate debt, and financial institution debt were left in its wake. And because of this debt, the normal tools of tax cuts and increased infrastructure spending were somewhat less available and/or politically difficult to achieve. Indeed, economist Paul Krugman argued that even the combination of the Oct. 2008 bailout plus the Feb. 2009 bailout did not go big enough, although Blinder states that they were large compared to previous bailouts. And, since interest rates were already near zero, the standard monetary tool of lowering rates was not going to provide much help.
