- Capital Rules
- In an intellectual, legal, and political history of financial globalization, Rawi Abdelal shows that global financial markets were not always premised on the idea that capital ought to flow freely across country borders. Contrary to conventional accounts, Abdelal argues that European policy makers promoted the liberal rules that compose the international financial architecture, while U.S. policy makers have tended to embrace unilateral, ad hoc globalization.

- The Creation and Destruction of Value
- Harold James examines the vulnerability and fragility of processes of globalization, both historically and in the present. This book applies lessons from past breakdowns of globalization—above all in the Great Depression—to show how financial crises provoke backlashes against global integration: against the mobility of capital or goods, but also against flows of migration. The book shows the looming psychological and material consequences of an interconnected world for people and the institutions they create.
