Highlighting key themes and methodologies in what has been called "the new history of capitalism" emerging since the financial crisis of 2008, this course will grapple with foundational primary texts in the historical, theoretical, and interdisciplinary study of capital and capitalism, alongside recent historiography addressing processes of economization and financialization. Engaging global perspectives via colonial and contemporary formations, and posing the question of governing, the course distinguishes itself from traditional economic history as well as business history by focusing on a key feature of recent historiographies: the contextualizing of timeless and trans-historical categories of economists through attention to processes that make economic space, time, and subjects.
