Lodge, Martin and Wegrich, Kai (2011) Arguing about financial regulation: comparing national discourses on the global financial crisis. PS: political science & politics, 44 (04). pp. 726-730. ISSN 1049-0965
Abstract
As we write, the world is still in the grips of a financial crisis. Germany was one of the first countries to bail out a bank in July 2007. Then, in September 2007, the United Kingdom (UK) witnessed a run on a building society, Northern Rock, and the subsequent widespread nationalization of its banking sector. In the United States, the crisis led to a number of collapses among financial institutions, most famously Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers, and the bail out of the insurance group, AIG, all in 2008.
