'The complex interplay between financial innovation, risk and regulation escapes the understanding of narrow disciplinary perspectives. These essays provide a rich and determinedly multi-disciplinary approach that offers new theoretical insights that might also help shape future policy and regulatory reform.' - Andrew Leyshon, Professor of Economic Geography, University of Nottingham, UK‘Ertürk and Gabor have assembled an impressive range of top scholars to explore the global regulatory response to the 2008 financial crisis. They do an immense service to the cause of understanding this complicated event, which still casts a spell over our economies and politics.’ - Randall Germain, Professor of Political Science, Carleton University, Canada‘This impressive cutting edge collection of essays stands out both for its breadth of topics and the multi-disciplinary group of heterodox experts to analyze the transformation of banking institutions. Given that governments had to devote an unprecedented ratio of annual GDP to rescuing banks, this comprehensive compendium is not only timely, but fills an important vacuum in understanding the global paradigm shift in banking since the financial crisis.’ - Brigitte Young, Professor Emeritus of International Political Science, University of Muenster, Germany. 'Readers familiar with the critical study of banking and finance certainly will find the volume a wonderful and handy reference point.' - Daniel Mertens, Goethe University Frankfurt
