Financialisation, globalisation, and the industrial labour share: A comparison between Iran and Thailand

Author

  • Giorgos Gouzoulis

Abstract

This paper examines Iran and Thailand and shows that the distributional consequences of financialisation and globalisation do not depend exclusively on the extent of financial deepening and exposure to globalisation. Instead, the cultural and legal underpinnings of the creditor–debtor relationship and the form of global integration matter more.
