Sommario/riassunto

The 2008 financial crisis was the worst since the Great Depression and many voices argued that it would transform global financial governance. But half a decade later, how much has really changed? In this book, Helleiner surveys the landscape and argues that continuity has marked global financial governance more than dramatic transformation.
