The Invisible Hands of U.S. Commercial Banking Reform: Private Action and Public Guarantees Margaret M. Polski
In the late twentieth century a number of forces converged to create pressure for profound change in the U.S. commercial banking industry. Changes in the global economy created monetary pressures. A financially sophisticated baby boom generation fuelled the demand for investment alternatives to bank deposits and less expensive investment capital. Expanding local and cross-border economic activity stimulated demand for new financial products, services, organizational structures, and regulation. Finally, technological innovation made it possible to compete in financial services in novel ways, creating new competition and relentless pressure to improve performance. In response to these forces, the commercial banking industry in the United States has dramatically restructured. While concentration has increased, banks no longer dominate financial services. Instead, they have become part of holding companies that own a broad range of closely related financial services companies that are......

The Invisible Heart: Economics and Family Values Nancy Folbre
A brilliant new approach to the economics of caregiving, from the MacArthur Award-winning economist. There has been much talk about family values in recent years, but little examination of the economic forces that are exploding family life and limiting the caregiving that families can provide. As Folbre points out in her provocative and insightful new book, every society must confront the problem of balancing self-interested pursuits with care for others?including children, the elderly, and the infirm. Historically, most societies enjoyed an increased supply of care by maintaining strict limits on women's freedom. But as these limits happily and inevitably give way, there are many consequences for those who still need care. Using the image of "the invisible heart" to evoke the forces of compassion that must temper the forces of self-interest, Folbre argues that if we don't establish a new set of rules defining our mutual responsibilities for caregiving, the penalties suffered by......

Story of Money Norman Angell
1929. This work is not a treatise on monetary theory, nor is it a history of the technical developments of monetary practice or of banking. It is a story, written for the layman, of man's experiences with the device of money: some of the outstanding experiments that he has tried with it, and the results of the experiments; some of the ideas he has had concerning it; some of the mistakes that he has made about it. It is an attempt to tell the story of money in its social relation, to who and what money has done to human society, the problems which it has solved and which it has created; and to show briefly, in the final chapter, the nature of the main monetary and banking controversy of the present day. Illustrated....
