دانلود کتاب Money/Space: Geographies of Monetary Transformation

Bringing together in one volume the most important writings of Andrew Leyshon and Nigel Thrift on money and finance, including the unpublished classic, 'Sexy Greedy', this collection examines the economic, social and cultural manifestations that go to make up a multiple vision of money.Since the mid-1980s, attention to the role played by money and finance in the process of social and economic change has become pervasive across the social sciences. The documentation of monetary and financial matters reflects growing concern with the 'power of money' and the ways in which this power has the force to influence the conduct of social and economic life across a range of geographical scales. Money/Space describes the economy of international money, linking it with the distribution of social power. It looks at some of the ways in which this world of money, exemplified by finance capital and financial markets, is discursively constituted through particular social-cultural practices and shows how the world of money is constructed at a number of spatial scales.
