This project brings together a group of early career researchers from different disciplines and theoretical backgrounds to investigate the everyday practices and relations through which developing and emerging economies’ (DEEs) subordinate financial integration manifests and perpetuates itself and conditions the structure of capital accumulation. Heterodox economists have long pointed to the structural subordination of DEEs in the global economy. In financial markets this subordination is reflected in persistent external vulnerability and financial instability and severe macroeconomic policy constraints. So far, this literature has largely focused on DEEs’ monetary subordination and investigated broad structural processes and moments of crises and extreme volatility. We still know very little about the specific, everyday financial relations, practices and mechanisms which reflect DEE’s subordinate financial integration and distinctly shape the behaviour of economic agents in these countries. This knowledge, however, has become particularly important in the era of financialisation manifested in the increasingly complex and variegated relations of DEE actors with (international) financial markets. Economic geographers and sociologists have presented excellent work on the spatially and socially variegated financial practices, but are frequently insensitive to the macroeconomic, monetary, and political structures underlying them. This project brings together the concerns with both macro-structure and agency to conceptualise their interaction in structured global financial markets. This is theoretically innovative as it distinguishes explicitly between monetary and financial forms of subordination and develops their conceptual specificity and dynamics interaction. Methodologically, the project proposes a mixed method study to uncover the key international financial relations of Non-Financial Corporations from DEE, as key agents in domestic capital accumulation, and to investigate their potentially subordinate nature in the form of specific constraints, costs and barriers. The immediate outcome of the project will be a working paper and an application to the COST network.
