Boyer, Uemura and Isogai
● The view that ascribes to financial innovations and globalization positive
effects to the economy and its stability, alongside the suppossed need to
mimic the Anglo-American form of modern capitalism, is limited.
○ Soviet Union collapsed
■ Counter Argument A: A laissez-faire market would have
caused the emergence of markets and would have lead to
economic stability
● Argument A: This did not happen, despite numerous
attempts. Instead, more primitive mechanisms
prevailed that were not creational of wealth
● Argument B: negligence of social factors, overall
overestimation of universal application of
neoliberalism.
○ Asian Crisis of 1997
■ Argument A: Caused by laissez-faire attitude of domestic
financial systems and the financial liberalization of external
capital
● Subargument A1: Globalization and opening up of
(financial) markets may have dramatic consequences
○ Real-estate bubble
■ Argument A: Creative destruction as a part of capitalism
creating a short spike of demand, followed by a long-term

increase of supply (in prospects of long-term stable demand),
followed by crisis through excess demand
■ Argument B: Actors do not act utmost rationally
● Subargument B1: Impatience of financial markets in
reacting on phenomena (radical choice of BoJ to raise
interest rate)
○ 2008 Global Crisis
■ Argument A: Increased supply of capital due to foreign
capital increases due to globalization consequently force
financial sector to lower constraints on taking loans to
increase demand and meet an equilibrium → bursting of
subprime crisis (wherein risky loans are taken)
○ Washington Consensus
■ Argument A: A number of successful countries do not abide
by it, or merely selectively
■ Argument B: State interventionism actually can help in a
quick revival of the economy after crisis
○ Thus,
■ It is based on the idea of a pure-market economy, which is
non-existent and unrealistic
■ Rational actors are falsely believed to fully understand each
other
■ Neglection of historic innovation and their unintended
consequences
● Regulation theory
○ Viability of capitalism supported through 5 institutional forms
■ It’s insertion into the world economy
■ Nature of its labor organization
■ Its financial regime
■ Its degree of competition
■ Its society
