Krippner, Greta R. <br/><br/>
Capitalizing on crisis: the political origins of the rise of finance 

 - Cambridge  Harvard University Press  2011 
 - xv, 222 p. 
<br/><br/> In the context of the recent financial crisis, the extent to which the U.S. economy has become dependent on financial activities has been made abundantly clear. In Capitalizing on Crisis, Greta Krippner traces the longer-term historical evolution that made the rise of finance possible, arguing that this development rested on a broader transformation of the U.S. economy than is suggested by the current preoccupation with financial speculation.
