Zusammenfassung: This short book describes the role big banks played in the financial crisis of 2008 while denouncing the financial oligarchy’s rise to power and the dangers it represents for democracy today. There have been many books since the financial crisis that have considered historical events leading up to the crisis but few that consider a solution. Ten years after the great financial crash, this book synthesisessynthesizes the historical developments and introduces a proposal aimed at rebalancing the economy and society at large.
