SOCIAL FINANCE - NEIL SHENAI GEBUNDEN

How do market participants construct stable markets? Why do crises that seem inevitable
after-the-fact routinely take market participants by surprise? What forces trigger financial
panics  and why does uncertainty lead to market volatility? How do economic elites respond to
financial distress  and why are some regulatory interventions more effective than others?
Social Finance: Shadow Banking during the Global Financial Crisis answers these questions by
presenting a new  economic conventions-based model of financial crises. This model emerges from
a theoretical synthesis of several intellectual traditions  including Keynesian epistemology 
Hyman Minsky's asset market theory  economic sociology  and international relations theory.
Social Finance uses this new paradigm to explain instability in the global shadow banking
system during the global financial crisis. And it presents the results of interviews with some
of the world's leading investors - who saw over $2 trillion in annual order flows and managed
over $160 billion in assets - to provide first-hand accounts of markets in crisis. Written in
accessible prose  Social Finance will appeal to a broad audience of academics  policymakers 
and practitioners interested in understanding the drivers of financial stability in the
twenty-first century.
