Demystifying imperial finance / Leo Panitch and Martijn Konings -- Finance and American empire / Leo Panitch and Sam Gindin -- American finance and empire in historical perspective / Martijn Konings -- US structural power and the internationalization of the US Treasury / David Sarai -- Neoliberalism and the federal reserve / Eric Newstadt -- US powerand the international bond market: financial flows and the construction of risk value / Scott Aquanno -- Towards the Americanization of European finance? The case of finance-led accumulation in Germany / Thomas Sablowski -- Accounting for financial capital: American hegemony and theconflict over international accounting standards / Thomas Sablowski --From Bretton Woods to neoliberal reforms: the international financial institutions and American power / Ruth Felder -- The role of the financial discipline in imperial strategy / Christopher Rude -- The politics of imperial finance / Martijn Konings and Leo Panitch.

The relationship between states and globalization is one of the burning questions of our time. Providing a lively critique of how international and comparative political economy misjudge the relationship between markets and states, this book demonstrates the American state's central place in today's world of globalized finance. While US military interventions draw most attention to the imperial nature of the American state, the highly original contributions here show how US power is embedded in the structures of global finance. The first part of the volume examines the contours and sources of American financial power, and the second part traces the processes through which the pillars of American power in global finance have been constructed. Taking the analysis right up to the present situation, this book powerfully reveals the role the American state plays in the expansion of international financial markets and in managing the economic crises that emanate from them.
