Description:     

This volume builds on the observation that society has co-evolved with the financial sector.

We cannot simply claim that 'finance' was the sole instigator of the 2008 crisis. Society itself has become financialized; the process of replacing relations, structures of trust and reciprocity, by anonymous and systemic transactions.

The volume poses vital questions with regard to this societal development. How did this happen? And more importantly: is change possible? If yes, how?

This volume contains 21 essays on the themes mentioned above.
