Abstract: Even though places act as depositories of money and other forms of value, it is the flows of money over space that define and circumscribe money´s meaning as value. The objective of this article is to unravel this thing (place)/process (space) character of money in the light of changes in the global financial economy over the past few decades. With this purpose, the form in which tensions and contradictions unfold in and through the spatial organisation are explored, as is the geographical restructuring of global finance. This is a deeply historical-geographical process, in which socio-spatial differences and tensions work themselves out through a profound reorganisation of geographical landscapes, through the destruction and devaluation of vast reservoirs of value and, more disturbingly, at the expense of often chilling human suffering.
