100 Años de desarrollo de la teoría financiera : situación actual y previsible evolución tras la crisis : resumen de la ponencia

"Las Finanzas, como disciplina académica, nacen a caballo entre los siglos XIX y XX. Sin duda el importante desarrollo industrial de la época y la necesidad de empresas de mayores dimensiones llevaron a un creciente interés por las concentraciones empresariales como fusiones y adquisiciones. También aumentó el interés por los mercados donde se financiaban estas empresas cada vez mayores. Y esto, aunque sucedía en diversas partes del mundo, estaba ocurriendo de forma especial en Estados Unidos, de manera que allí fue donde nacieron las finanzas, y donde se han seguido desarrollando. De esta manera, desde un comienzo, las finanzas tienen un claro sello anglosajón." [introdução]

While the crisis proceeds: A world redistribution of economic power?

The crisis has drawn attention to the fact that not only emerging powers but other regions of the world as well may be offering different development models and may constitute into alternative, in some dimensions more positive agents, in the conduct of the present stage of globalisation. Notwithstanding, the traditional western powers have not lost a large amount of control of the world economy. And the crisis proceeds, reallocating world power as in a Hobbesian anarchy. It is difficult to foresee smooth developments in the near future. On the contrary, multilateralism seems to be losing ground to unilateral action or bilateral arrangements. More or less disguised currency wars may lead to serious disequilibria, and turf wars may become more frequent, with motives ranging from securing captive markets to control of specific commodities and energy goods, or targeted regulatory frameworks. As economic policy becomes even more involved with defence and security affairs, the feedbacks from each side to the other seem likely to keep dissent and animosity high, rather than contributing to peaceful and constructive approaches. A more trouble-prone world may be easily expected.
