Financialisation and the Financial and Economic Crises provides
comparative, empirical case studies of a diverse set of eleven
countries. In particular, the book helps in understanding the
current (mal)performance of Euro area economies by explaining the
causes of the shifts in growth regimes during and after the crises.
It goes well beyond the dominant interpretation of the recent
financial and economic crises as being rooted in malfunctioning and
poorly regulated financial markets. The contributions to this book
provide detailed accounts of the long-term effects of
financialisation and cover the main developments leading up to and
during the crisis in eleven selected countries: the US, the UK,
Spain, Greece, Portugal, Germany, Sweden, Italy, France, Estonia,
and Turkey. The introductory chapter presents the theoretical
framework and synthesizes the main findings of the country studies.
Furthermore, the macroeconomic effects of financialisation on the
EU as a whole are analyzed in the final chapter. Offering an
illuminating overview and invaluable alternative perspective on the
long-run developments leading to the recent crises, this book is
essential reading for researchers, students and policymakers and an
ideal starting point for further research. Contributors: S. Bahce,
