Popular anger against bankers and the financial system has never been higher, yet the practical workings of the system remain opaque to many people. The Heretic's Guide to Global Finance aims to bridge the gap between protest slogans and practical proposals for reform. As a derivatives-broker turned campaigner, Brett Scott has a unique understanding of life inside and outside the system. The book is a practical guide for campaigners, academics and students who wish to deepen their understanding of the inner workings of finance, and gain access to it. It shows how financial knowledge can be used to build effective social and environmental campaigns. Scott covers aspects frequently overlooked, such as the cultural dimensions of the financial sector, and considers major issues such as agricultural speculation, carbon markets and tar-sands financing. The book shows how activists can tap into the internal dynamics of the sector to disrupt it and showcases the growing alternative finance movement.
