Recenzje

The 'critical juncture' of the 1970s marked the end of decades of seemingly inevitable progress towards more equal societies, and the resurgence of a financialised capitalism. This volume presents a range of critical perspectives that help to unwrap the mysteries of mobile financial capital.' John Quiggin, Australian Laureate Fellow in Economics, University of Queensland
