Book Summary
A state's financial power is built on the effect its credit, property, and tax
policies have on ordinary people: this is the key message of Leonard Seabrooke's
comparative historical investigation, which turns the spotlight away from elite
financial actors and toward institutions that matter for the majority of

financial and fiscal system. Ideally, he believes, such contests compel a state
to intervene on behalf of people below the median income level, leading the
state to broaden and deepen its domestic pool of capital
