Finance: cultural or political?

Fabian Muniesa

Journal of Cultural Economy, 2024, vol. 17, issue 5, 716-719

Abstract: What is the use of calling ‘cultural’ the set of habits, worldviews, practices, struggles and processes that go today by the name of ‘finance’? Cannot the subject matter be dealt with more aptly with the word ‘political’, especially if the objective is to add some critical traction and contribute to political articulation? Drawing from a few old conversations on the subject matter (and from a couple of arguably new problems), a plea for the ‘cultural’ is nonetheless offered, with special reference to the disorientating role that ‘political economy’ and the concept of ‘value’ play in the debate.
