In Normalized Financial Wrongdoing, Harland Prechel examines how
social structural arrangements that extended corporate property
rights and increased managerial control opened the door for
misconduct and, ultimately, the 2008 financial crisis. Beginning
his analysis with the financialization of the home-mortgage market
in the 1930s, Prechel shows how pervasive these arrangements had
become by the end of the century, when the bank and energy sectors
developed political strategies to participate in financial markets.
His account adopts a multilevel approach that considers the
political and legal landscapes in which corporations are embedded
to answer two questions: how did banks and financial firms
transition from being providers of capital to financial market
actors? Second, how did new organizational structures cause market
participants to engage in high-risk activities? After careful
historical analysis, Prechel examines how organizational and
political-legal arrangements contribute to current record-high
income and wealth inequality, and considers societal preconditions
for change.
