Reseña:
The world of finance is ever influenced by the transformational impact of technology, financial decision makers and institutions as well as political, societal and cultural forces. This important new book will demonstrate how finance is affected by key political and social forces and cultural norms, and shows how they have determined the progression, development, destruction and renewal of financial life in Europe, Russia and the United States. The initial focus of the book is the European scene before moving on to identify the United States as " the breeding ground" of modern world financial history, with references to cultural and commercial exchanges between former Ottoman, Asian and Western nations and empires.
