Description

Explore the deep connections between global finance and human behavior in The Social Life of Financial Derivatives. Written by Edward LiPuma, this work examines the social dimensions of derivatives markets, looking at the rituals and belief systems that drive them. Drawing on direct experience from trading derivatives, LiPuma provides a unique perspective on how these markets operate. This book offers an analysis of how derivatives function as devices that organize speculative capital. It examines the way derivative-driven capitalism creates the conditions for its own existence and how these financial forces reach into the fabric of everyday life. By framing finance as a form of social life, the text provides a new way to understand the impact of modern economic systems on society. This is an essential read for those studying the intersection of finance, anthropology, and sociology.
