Central banks have become the go-to institution of modern economies. In the wake of the 2007 financial crisis, they injected trillions of dollars of liquidity through a process known as quantitative easing first to prevent financial meltdown and later to stimulate the economy.

Recenzje

"This excellent book shows that central banking is a political process with profound distributional consequences. It is a must read for anyone wanting to know how central banks could work to serve the people." Daniela Gabor, University of the West of England "This highly recommended book should give political leaders pause when they ask for continued blind faith in central bank maestros." Christopher Adolph, University of Washington
