We know from the cost of the 2007-09 crisis that transnational
finance does not operate in a realm removed from our everyday
lives. Variegated Neoliberalism explains why its inequalities
persist and how they undermine more social-minded policies towards
finance in the EU. The book suggests that large financial groups
capitalize on broader changes in capitalism and emerging
assumptions about what benefits society at large. Those pushing
these political-economic projects present policy change to cope
with financial globalization as a new common sense. Macartney's
argument then contests these assumptions through an analysis of the
spatial relations of transnational actors, and the political claims
made within finance and research communities. Rather than relying
on umbrella concepts like 'transnational capitalist class',
Variegated Neoliberalism emphasises the national-domestic
foundations for transnationalization and what we commonly
understand as neoliberalism. The book provides comparative analyses
of global and European banking communities, and economic research
centres, in the UK, France, and Germany. It explains the
constellations underpinning the current neoliberal order in global
finance, and the realms of possibility for challenges to it.
