Derivatives and the Politics of Alternatives

Sasha Breger Bush

Chapter Chapter 5 in Derivatives and Development, 2012, pp 151-184 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Some have suggested that the global financial and food crises have motivated policymakers and international organizations to rethink their perspectives on globalized and liberalized markets. While critiques of modern financial and commodities markets have been mounting for decades, if not centuries, the twin crises have perhaps provided an opportunity to revisit these issues. The crises have created the ‘space’ necessary for considering alternative economic policies and structures.®
