Description
Stolen: A history of finance-led growth and a guide to escaping it. The decade leading up to the 2008 financial crisis saw booming banks, rising house prices, and cheap consumer goods propping up living standards in the rich world. Thirty years of rocketing debt and financial wizardry had masked the deep underlying fragility of finance-led growth. The consequences were severe: stagnant wages, rising inequality, and ecological systems collapsing. We've sat back as financial capitalism has stolen our economies, our environment, and even the future itself. Now, we have an opportunity to change course. This book offers a new perspective on the history of finance-led growth and provides a roadmap for escaping its destructive path.
