Conservatives Versus Wildcats: A Sociology of Financial Conflict
Simone Polillo
Conflict stands at the center of finance. Conservative bankers strive to control money as an instrument of exclusion by allying themselves with political elites to restrict access to credit. These tactics create resistance, so rival bakers-wildcats-attempt to subvert the status quo by using money as a tool to break existing boundaries. Conservatives Versus Wildcats chronicles this calculated dance using two historical cases to shed light on the evolution of banking systems.
