Finance film provides critical visualizations of the secretive, elitist, PR firewalled, and gender and race-biased world of finance, and its mysterious characters, jargon and products. It reconstructs for the screen and for broader audiences finance’s logics, responsibilities, practices, and ethos, and traces the effects of money, markets, investment, credit, debt, bubbles, and crashes on our well-being, desires, values, and actions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapters for this interdisciplinary collection are written by European and North American scholars in film studies, anthropology, business ethics, cultural studies, political economy, and sociology. They reveal and evaluate the ability of film to document financial cultures; reflect economic, cultural and political transformations related to financialization; indicate the alienating and exploitative consequences of the growing role played by financial services in the global economy; mobilize social action against finance’s excesses; as well as spread finance and capitalist mythology. The collection offers in-depth investigations of feature films such as \u003cem\u003eWall Street\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cem\u003e Freefall\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cem\u003e Margin Call\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cem\u003e Justice\u0026amp;Co\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cem\u003e The Wolf of Wall Street\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eand\u003ci\u003e The Big Short\u003c\/i\u003e, and documentaries such as \u003cem\u003eInside Job\u003c\/em\u003e,\u003cem\u003e Capitalism: A Love Story \u003c\/em\u003eand\u003ci\u003e In a Strange Land\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54239065702744,"sku":"9781138045286","price":49.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138045286.jpg?v=1779174052","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/global-finance-on-screen-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
