Description

Contested Capitalism explores the political roots of financial institutions across fifteen developed democracies. This scholarly work examines how modern financial arrangements are not accidental, but are the result of historical power struggles. By analyzing various case studies, the book reveals how the tension between landed interests, labor, and capital owners has defined the institutional structures seen in today's global economy. Through detailed research, the text provides a deep look into the US, France, Japan, Austria, and Germany. It offers a new perspective on the varieties of capitalism by showing how political battles shape the very systems that govern finance. This is an essential resource for students and professionals looking to understand the connection between political conflict and the development of modern financial architecture.
