Securing Finance, Mobilizing Risk: Money Cultures at the Bank of England de John Morris

Securing Finance, Mobilizing Risk: Money Cultures at the Bank of England: RIPE Series in Global Political Economy

Autor John Morris
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 dec 2019
Drawing on the history of modern finance, as well as the sociology of money and risk, this book examines how cultural understandings of finance have contributed to the increased capitalization of the UK financial system following the Global Financial Crisis. Providing both a geographically-inflected analysis and re-appraisal of the concept of performativity, it demonstrates that financial risk management has a spatiality that helps to inform understandings and imaginaries of the risks associated with money and finance.
The book traces the development of understandings of risk at the Bank of England, with an analysis that spans some 1,000 reports, documents and speeches alongside elite interviews with past and present employees at the central bank. The author argues that the Bank has moved from a relatively broad-brush approach to the risks being managed in the financial sector, to a greater preoccupation with the understanding and mapping of the mobilization of financial risk.
The study of financial practices from a critical social sciences and humanities perspective has grown rapidly since the Global Financial Crisis and this book will be of interest to multiple subject areas including IPE, economic geography, sociology of finance and critical security studies.

Recenzii

"The important achievement of John Morris' Securing Finance, Mobilizing Risk is to bring the insights of the cultural economy literature to bear on the problematics of international political economy. The result is a conceptually and empirically sophisticated account that offers fresh insight into the contemporary operation of central banking and the way financial risk is governed." - Martijn Konings, University of Sydney, Australia
"At a time of growing perceived threats to financial stability from sources ranging from climate change to cybercrime, John Morris offers a lively and penetrating analysis of how and why the Bank of England’s attitudes toward stability risk and its measurement and management have been transformed in the years prior to and since the global financial crisis, and with what consequences. Understanding the Bank’s orientation to stability risk as a form of ‘speculative security’, Morris provides an account that will be of interest across the gamut of critical social studies of money and finance." -  Brett Christophers, Uppsala University, Sweden
"John Morris astutely analyses the fine line that the Bank of England navigates between taming risk and　speculating on risk. His attentiveness to misfires and improvisations in financial discourse reinvigorates the debate on financial performativity, and pushes it in new directions. Strongly recommended to anyone interested in the complex interrelations between finance and security, and the growing financial security literature." - Marieke de Goede, University of Amsterdam
