Description
The Oxford Handbook of Banking and Financial History provides a comprehensive understanding of the economic and financial side of banking and financial activities. Nineteen leading experts present chapters on the subject, exploring general issues, theoretical and methodological aspects, and the long-term development of the financial system. This volume approaches the banking and financial world from four distinct but interrelated angles: financial institutions, financial markets, financial regulation, and financial crises. By examining historical parallels and comparative perspectives, it sheds light on the magnitude of recent financial crises and their causes. The result is a rich and nuanced analysis that will be valuable to academics, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of modern finance. With its interdisciplinary approach and authoritative contributors, this handbook offers a unique perspective on banking and financial history.
