It is nothing more than a representation of and medium for decentralized networks of social trust, but its production is controlled by highlycentralized networks of firms, places, and governments, and there is never enough of it to go around. Moreover, given that the creation of money, as credit, is based on expectations, money is at itsheart an instrument for human agency to change the future. However, the financial systems that produce money are deeply rooted in the past, and perpetuate themselves through history. Sticky Power seeks to deepen our understanding of the paradox of money by introducing a novel conceptual lens, Global Financial Networks, to cast new light on the geography, history, politics, and sociology of finance from the Middle Ages to the global financial crisis and beyond. It shows that the powerof finance is inherently sticky: apparently new innovations such as offshore finance actually date back centuries, and global financial networks more broadly have adapted to the rise and fall of empires and thedevelopment of new technologies while changing surprisingly little in their basic character, or at most changing very slowly. Haberly and Wojcik argue that a recognition of the mechanics of this durability calls for a new approach to reforming finance--one less reactively focused on regulation, and more proactively focused on building new institutional systems with a long-term sticky power of their own. This volume investigates the durable nature of financial institutions, from the Middle Ages to the present day, and argues that reform should take place through innovation in institutional design rather than regulation.
