Derivatives and Development

In "Derivatives and Development," author Sasha Breger Bush presents a compelling analysis of how derivatives markets operate within the framework of development. Published by Palgrave Macmillan in 2012, this insightful paperback edition spans 244 pages and delves into the paradox of financial instruments that are meant to foster growth yet often serve as engines of inequality and instability. Breger Bush argues that rather than alleviating poverty, these markets can exacerbate the very issues they aim to address, shedding light on the dangers of neoliberal globalization for vulnerable populations. This book is essential for anyone interested in understanding the complex interplay between finance and development, making it a valuable addition to your reading list.
