Geldpolitische Maßnahmen in Reaktion auf die Finanzkrise enthalten zum einen Gender-, Klassen- und ethnische Normen und haben zum anderen asymmetrische Auswirkungen auf verschiedene gesellschaftliche Gruppen. Sie benachteiligen, wie Brigitte Young zeigt, vor allem auch Frauen und deren ökonomische Situation. Der Vortrag veranschaulicht die Interaktion von Makro- und Mikroebene in der Finanzialisierung.

In this radio interview, Andrew Sayer first outlines some features of neoliberalism and policies that are associated with it. Then a difference between wealth creation via investment and wealth extraction by means of lending money to those deprived of it or by acquiring property such as real estate or financial assets on the secondary market as absentee owner is established. In this context reference is made to J.A. Hobson's concept of "improperty." Finally, there are some words on the power dynamics associated with capitalism and its relation to climate change.
