Rezensionen

In this rich and compelling text, Sarah Hall delves into the evolution of the financial services industry since the 2008 financial crisis. The narrative is systematic and embedded in the history of the Bretton Wood s era, providing a thorough introduction to the world of finance for students and general audiences. At the same time, Hall s skilful analysis of contemporary spaces and subjects' provides new insight into the cultural economy of global finance and will appeal to scholars and practitioners of finance alike.
