Human history is full of important events (sometimes tragic,) caused by climatic changes and catastrophes. In the past major migration waves have occurred as the result of long draughts, and in the late 20th century the potential for “manmade” climatic catastrophes has emerged as a grim consequence of the social and economic developments of recent decades. This is why international research programs on the human dimension of global change are increasingly addressing climate-related problems.

Special attention is given to the post-crisis situation in the EU, in particular, in Hungary. The article assesses the results of various anti-crisis measures and describes various aspects of such urgent issues as national debt, international anti-crisis cooperation, changes in the international trade rules, Basel Accords on financial regulation, Doha Development Agenda, supervision on banking activities and some others. There is a detailed retrospective overview of the political component of Hungary's anti-crisis measures and the EU reaction to them. The conclusion gives an outlook of the longer term prospects of economic developments in the context of the crisis and the corresponding changes in economic and political patterns.
