Standardisation, Disequilibrium, and Crisis: The tripartite features of financialisation?
Event details
Abstract
This paper examines financialisation as a product of class struggle in the pre and post New Deal eras. It suggests that, without a (class) analysis of changes in the division of labour, explaining financialisation through markets, organisational priorities, or indeed states, misses the essential element to understanding financialisation. It proffers financialisation as a central tendency within capitalism – a tendency which will emerge unless checked by class forces. It argues the appearance of financialisation in organisations or markets is a symptom of the (re)composition of class forces rather than the result of changes in the practices of markets, states, or managerial/organisational pejoratives: to suggest otherwise, is to mistake cause and effect.
