This book analyzes the evolution and impact of the concept of risk
on processes of transnational banking and financial market
regulation, as well as the externalities generated by speculative
financial activity in developing and emerging market economies. The
author provides an alternative theory for the study of
international financial market regulation by applying elements of a
post-structural methodology to the topic. Inspired by Michel
Foucault's framework of critical discourse analysis in The History
of Sexuality, the argument dissects the rules of formation that
govern the evolving discourse on risk. The author argues that the
mathematically formal technology of risk emerges from within
specific institutions and economic formations; thereby limiting its
utility in the regulation of global financial markets. Exploring
how the applied technology of risk has been implicated for fueling
a major financial crisis, his work also demonstrates how the
regulation of global financial markets and abstruse financial
instruments in advanced industrialized countries impacts the lives
of the poorest people in developing countries and emerging markets.
