Money, Markets, States and the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-09
The seminar will be structured in three parts. In the first part we will begin with talking about money: what are its origins, what are its functions in the economy, what are its functions in broader society? We then analyze and discuss money and its creation, the role of commercial and central banks, the development of financial markets and their increasing internationalization. The discussion will take place against the background of the interdependence of market and state institutions in capitalist economies. The second part will introduce the field of International Political Economy (IPE) with its intent to bridge the gap between political science and economics. We will discuss the prevalent IPE theories and their contribution to studying financial markets. In the third part we will use these concepts and theoretical perspectives for an in-depth analysis of the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-09: understanding the developments leading up to the crisis, tracing the domino effects around the world during September 2008 as well as looking at policy responses in the aftermath of the crisis. A session will also be dedicated to the far from resolved Euro-crisis. The goal of the seminar is to provide a basic understanding of the aspects of money and financial markets in modern capitalist economies. It will rely on accessible literature of political science, economics and sociology and is open to anyone willing to engage with these issues.
