Demystifying Imperial Finance

Panitch, Leo; Konings, Martijn

Pages: 1 –13

[To a large extent, the discipline of international political economy (IPE) emerged in response to the perceived tendency of economic and financial globalization to undermine the power of nation-states, including that of the US state. The Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates was seen as...

Finance and American Empire

Panitch, Leo; Gindin, Sam

Pages: 17 –47

[Despite the hubris that has attended the global ambitions of American financiers for over a century, the actual rise to world dominance of American finance was far from smooth or inevitable. The goal of ‘building the world’s capital for all time to come’ in New York, already articulated in the...
Available

American Finance and Empire in Historical Perspective

Konings, Martijn

Pages: 48 –68

[If there is no lack of marvel at the historically unprecedented reach of American imperial power, we often find little indication as to the concrete institutional roots and sources of this distinctive capacity. This chapter tries to conceptualize the institutional foundations of American power...

US Structural Power and the Internationalization of the US Treasury

Sarai, David

Pages: 71 –89

[All too often the US Treasury has been portrayed as an instrument of the Wall Street financial community in international affairs. Yet the important connection that does exist between financial capital and the US Treasury needs to be seen in structural more than instrumental terms. The...

Neoliberalism and the Federal Reserve

Newstadt, Eric

Pages: 90 –118

[The debate that emerged over the last decade about the nature of the present world order — the degree to which an era of American empire or hegemony was being consolidated (Gill 2003; Panitch and Gindin 2004, 2005a), or whether we are in a period of monumental transformation and relocation of...

US Power and the International Bond Market: Financial Flows and the Construction of Risk Value

Aquanno, Scott

Pages: 119 –134

[The disciplinary rigidities that continue to separate the study of politics from the study of economics still stand in the way of a deeper understanding of the matrices and operation of post-Second World War global power. The crucial role of global bond markets in particular cannot be...
Available

Towards the Americanization of European Finance? The Case of Finance-Led Accumulation in Germany

Sablowski, Thomas

Pages: 135 –158

[The German financial system has often been described as a bank-based system — to be contrasted with the market-based systems of the United States or Great Britain. Social scientists have conceived this bank-based financial system as a cornerstone of the so-called ‘model Germany’. In the past, it...
Available

Accounting for Financial Capital: American Hegemony and the Conflict Over International Accounting Standards

Sablowski, Thomas

Pages: 159 –174

[The history of accounting is closely linked to the history of capital accumulation. Accounting fraud has been part of every major crisis in capital accumulation, as have attempts to re-establish investor trust. Accountants are structurally caught in the contradiction of corporations’ interests...
Available

From Bretton Woods to Neoliberal Reforms: the International Financial Institutions and American Power

Felder, Ruth

Pages: 175 –197

[The last decade has seen numerous debates about the performance and the future of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank as well as many proposals for reform. Some have criticized the international financial institutions (IFIs) for creating problems of moral hazard and have...
Available

The Role of Financial Discipline in Imperial Strategy

Rude, Christopher

Pages: 198 –222

[Financial instability has been a consistent feature of neoliberal global capitalism, and when this instability has taken the form of a major financial crisis, as it did in East Asia in 1997, the consequences for the economies involved have been severe. Economic contractions, leaving economies in...
