The Financialisation of Power

More about the book

Exploring the aftermath of the 2008 financial crash, this book delves into the influence of financiers on global lives, particularly in Africa. It questions whether the crisis was an isolated incident or indicative of a broader trend where financial elites have usurped governmental authority, effectively controlling the political economy. Through this lens, it examines the implications of public subsidies used to stabilize the international economy and their impact on society.
