Bibliography

Below is a bibilography on financialization which will hopefully act as a useful resource for researchers, including post-graduate students. The bibliography has been put together from our own research and other IWGF members' suggestions, but is not exhaustive. We of course welcome suggestions of references that should be added. If you know of any key references we have missed out, then please email them to me at: admin@iwgf.org

Most other working papers and unpublished work will be located under 'IWGF research'.
