Theory, explanation, and economics in financial geographies
We take stock of theory and explanation in financial geographies between 2001 and 2020. Our analysis confirms the lone ascent of financialisation to the status of leading theory and shows that economics, particularly the financial variety, has been gradually pushed away from financial geographies in a shift that accompanied the decline of quantitative research approaches. We explain how these developments are interrelated and argue that they pose…

Two typ…

Cary,' the states compete to provide managers with special benefits.The competition causes state law to adhere less and less strongly to the norm of shareholder wealth maximization, and a federal corporate law regime should be …

They stayed in the background during the half century ending in 1980, while a conception of the as a management power structure prevailed unchallenged in legal theory.2 The situation changed around 1980, when a theory of the firm3 appeared, imported from economics. This new economic theory of the firm asserted a…
