The times in which bankers and financiers were the primary movers and shakers of both economy and society have come to an abrupt halt. What has this shift meant for the future of capitalism? What has it meant for the future of the financial industry? What about the lives and careers of financial operators who were once driven by utopian visions of economic, social, and personal transformation? And what does it mean for critics of capitalism who have long predicted the end of financial institutions? Hirokazu Miyazaki answers these questions through a close examination of the careers and intellectual trajectories of a group of pioneering derivatives traders in Japan during the 1990's and 2000's.StockbrokersJapanCase studiesInvestment analysisJapanCase studiesArbitrageJapanCase studiesFinanceJapanCase studies20th century japan.asian history.bankers and financiers.books about business.books for history lovers.business investments.easy to read.economic and social transformation.economics.educational books.engaging.financial ethnography.future of capitalism.home school history books.insights into japanese markets.japanese capitalism.japanese culture.japanese economy.japanese finances.japanese history.leisure reads.money and power.rise of modern japan.travel books.what is capitalism.StockbrokersInvestment analysisArbitrageFinance332.60952Miyazaki Hirokazu1525269MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786346903321Arbitraging Japan3766537UNINA04914nam 22010694a 450 991078301130332120230617014842.01-4175-2542-81-283-29173-897866132917381-59734-845-70-520-93737-610.1525/9780520937376(CKB)1000000000006587(EBL)224041(OCoLC)191925438(SSID)ssj0000231919(PQKBManifestationID)11194969(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000231919(PQKBWorkID)10209053(PQKB)11280019(MiAaPQ)EBC224041(DE-B1597)520894(OCoLC)1096477185(DE-B1597)9780520937376(Au-PeEL)EBL224041(CaPaEBR)ebr10062310(CaONFJC)MIL329173(OCoLC)936891396(EXLCZ)99100000000000658720021119d2003 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrRace and the invisible hand[electronic resource] how white networks exclude black men from blue-collar jobs /Deirdre A.

Washington to today, and William Julius Wilson, the advice dispensed to young black men has invariably been, "Get a trade." Deirdre Royster has put this folk wisdom to an empirical test-and, in Race and the Invisible Hand, exposes the subtleties and discrepancies of a workplace that favors the white job-seeker over the black. At the heart of this study is the question: Is there something about young black men that makes them less desirable as workers than their white peers? And if not, then why do black men trail white men in earnings and employment rates? Royster seeks an answer in the experiences of 25 black and 25 white men who graduated from the same vocational school and sought jobs in the same blue-collar labor market in the early 1990's. After seriously examining the educational performances, work ethics, and values of the black men for unique deficiencies, her study reveals the greatest difference between young black and white men-access to the kinds of contacts that really help in the job search and entry process.George Gund Foundation Book in African American StudiesAfrican AmericansEmploymentDiscrimination in employmentUnited StatesBlue collar workersUnited States1990s.african american men.black experience.black men.blue collar jobs.business economics.career.employment opportunities.employment rates.ethnographers.ethnography.human resources.industrial relations.inequality.job entry process.job search.job seekers.labor market.labor relations.nonfiction.oppression.professional contacts.race issues.racism.systemic racism.vocational school.wage gap.white networks.work ethic.young black men.African AmericansEmployment.Discrimination in employmentBlue collar workers331.13/3/0973Royster Deirdre A(Deirdre Alexia),1966-1558603MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783011303321Race and the invisible hand3823155UNINA
