Routledge Explorations in Economic Histo European Banks and the Rise of International Finance: The post-Bretton Woods era, (Hardcover)

This book examines the historical origins of the financialised world we live in by analysing the transformations in world finance which occurred in the decade from the first oil crisis of 1973, until the debt crisis of 1982. This a crucial and formative decade for understanding the modern financial landscape, but it is still mostly unexplored in economic and financial history.
