Resumen:
Despite never achieving significant inroads into mainstream economic thought, financialisation has become ubiquitous in heterodox economics and other social sciences, particularly after the 2008-09 Global Financial Crisis (GFC). Reflecting its loose seminal definition (Epstein, 2005), financialisation has been differently conceptualised. Those conceptions go from a microeconomic approach focused on shareholder value, the detrimental effects of financialisation as a new regime of accumulation, to the growing significance of finance in daily life and culture (van der Zwan, 2014).
