In the early years of the new millennium, which began in 2001, the world witnessed rapid growth and income convergence among countries, reversing the trend of previous decades. That rapid growth in the first years of the decade proved unsustainable, however, because it was based on a build-up of global and domestic imbalances, resulting in the global financial crisis of 2008-2009, followed by the European sovereign debt crisis which began in late 2009 and the adoption of contractionary policies in 2011 which extended the global economic downturn.
