Abstract

Markets, monsters, models: Cultural geographies of the subprime crisis. Inspite of almost four decades of market-based policies and the explosive expansion of speculative money flows, real financial markets have been largely treated as a black box in economic geography. Connecting with a growing body of literature that investigates processes of market-making, this paper calls for intensified efforts to understand how financial markets are produced, stabilized, and fall apart. Tentatively labeled “geographies of marketization”, this perspective is put to work on the example of the current financial crisis.
