Warwick Critical Finance

If 'globalisation' was the dominating concept of the 1990s and 'neoliberalisation' followed in the 2000s, then 'financialisation' is arguably one of the hottest candidate for succession in the 2010s. Its inflationary use has been debated for some time now, without actually diminishing its appeal in various contexts. In order to think through the stakes attendant to the continued research of financialisation and its multiple operationalisations, we invited two active protagonists in these debates. Ève Chiapello and Pauline Gleadle discussed each other's work and critically assessed the ways in which the study of financialisation continues to shape the current critical debates about global finance and global capitalism more generally.
