This book analyzes America's unique role in the making and managing of global finance, setting it in the context of the historical, social and institutional interface between politics and finance.It is highly topical amidst the challenges of crises in globalized financial markets. It provides a distinctive and original theoretical approach which enlightens new imperialism debates and the developments in international and political economy. It offers a wide-ranging coverage of the key American and international institutions in global finance.In a lively critique of how international and comparative political economies misjudge the relationship between global markets and states, this book demonstrates the central place of the American state in today's world of globalized finance. The contributors set aside traditional emphasis on military intervention, looking instead to economics.

The Finacial Roots of US Empire Explicated September 8, 2008
This book is an excellent analysis of global finance and the US's role in its constitution and how the US grew out of its finacial power. The divisity of approches and areas of interest create a complimentary picture of the relationship between global finance and the US state.

The introductory chapter by the editors offers a new approch to, and a critical review of, others attempts at, the roots of finacial power.

Worth a read by students of IPE or comparative political economy, IR or sociology of global change.
