'A lively and thoroughly engaging collection. Every chapter comes at the question of contemporary money and finance from a new and often surprising angle. Provocative and energetic, the book has been assembled with wit and insight. The introduction alone is worth the price of admission, and the rest of the volume follows through on its promise.' Geoff Mann, Simon Fraser University, Canada 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
