This book offers the first sustained study of the ways 21st century North American poems engage with financialization. It argues that recent poems about economics not only discuss but enact concerns with containment and agency essential to the contemporary financialized economy by manipulating the seemingly old-fashioned figures of synecdoche (the representation of the whole by the part) and prosopopeia or personification. Its four body chapters offer in-depth readings of the work of eleven formally, culturally, and thematically diverse contemporary U.S. and Canadian poets who variously consider labor, consumerism, debt, and the derivative form; the Coda reads several recent poems about reparations in terms of an emerging tendency to emphasize the historical, racialized, and ethical contexts of contemporary economics. As the book explores financialization’s representation in recent poetry, it redresses arguments that poetry is irrelevant to contemporary culture.

Using frameworks from contemporary philosophy and critical finance studies, the book explores how contemporary cinema has registered recent financial and economic issues. The book focuses on how filmmakers have found formal means to explore, celebrate, and critique the increasingly important role that the financial sector plays in shaping global economic, political, ethical, and social life.

Collecting 10 essays from prominent and emerging scholars of diverse backgrounds, this book offers distinctive perspectives from both the Global North and South—a range appropriate to the multifaceted phenomenon it takes as its object of investigation. Collectively, these essays emphasize the importance of the book’s topic. As the consumer price index reaches historic highs across the world, the need to think inflation in all its aspects has never been more urgent. If inflation frustrates the economists’ best efforts to theorize it coherently, the time has come to ask questions about where the boundaries of economics lie and to reevaluate the assumption that inflation is primarily an economic phenomenon. Rather than offering a dogmatic analysis that would assert what inflation really is, this book theorizes its shifting forms, furnishing the reader with a multi-dimensional, non-totalizing understanding of its mechanisms. In doing so, the book opens up new possibilities for grappling with one of the most pressing problems of our time.
