Abstract

The spatial arrangements of global finance have changed significantly over the last 30 years, entangling new actors, relations and sites. Infrastructures have developed to stabilize change and complexity. The collection advocates for a broader understanding of infrastructures that includes – but moves beyond – supporting technologies of Bloomberg terminals, telephony, and high-speed cabling. In particular, it highlights other infrastructural forms: financial institutions which govern and steer market action, social networks which organize financial practices and reproduce status-based power asymmetries and legal treatments which work across jurisdictions to open up opportunities for actors to innovate or avoid costs. This theme issue highlights how these different infrastructural forms support both changes and continuities in the global financial system and thus contributes to the literature on financialization, global financial networks and global wealth chains.

变化中的全球金融空间安排:金融、社会和法律基础设施

在过去的30年里，全球金融的空间安排发生了重大变化，新的参与者、关系和地点被纠缠在一起。基础设施的发展是为了稳定变化和复杂性。这本书提倡对基础设施有更广泛的理解，包括——但不仅限于——彭博终端、电话和高速电缆等支持技术。它特别强调了其他基础设施形式:管理和引导市场行为的金融机构，组织金融实践和再现基于地位的权力不对称的社会网络，以及跨司法管辖区工作的法律处理，为行动者创新或避免成本开辟机会。本主题突出了这些不同的基础设施形式如何支持全球金融体系的变化和连续性，从而为金融化、全球金融网络和全球财富链的文献做出贡献。

期刊介绍： Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space is a pluralist and heterodox journal of economic research, principally concerned with questions of urban and regional restructuring, globalization, inequality, and uneven development. International in outlook and interdisciplinary in spirit, the journal is positioned at the forefront of theoretical and methodological innovation, welcoming substantive and empirical contributions that probe and problematize significant issues of economic, social, and political concern, especially where these advance new approaches. The horizons of Economy and Space are wide, but themes of recurrent concern for the journal include: global production and consumption networks; urban policy and politics; race, gender, and class; economies of technology, information and knowledge; money, banking, and finance; migration and mobility; resource production and distribution; and land, housing, labor, and commodity markets. To these ends, Economy and Space values a diverse array of theories, methods, and approaches, especially where these engage with research traditions, evolving debates, and new directions in urban and regional studies, in human geography, and in allied fields such as socioeconomics and the various traditions of political economy.
