Thomas Palley

Abstract: Abstract This chapter explores the core construct of financialization. The chapter focuses on the US economy, which is where financialization seems to be most developed. However, judging by the increase in rentier income shares, financialization appearsto have infected all industrialized economies (Power et al., 2003; Jayadev and Epstein, 2007).
