Abstract

Im Jahr 1974 verunsicherten eine Reihe von Bankenkrisen viele der größten Volkswirtschaften der Welt. Die Prominenteste, die Herstattkrise in Deutschland, verursachte große Schockwellen durch das entstehende globale Finanzsystem. Rückblickend markiert die Krise den Beginn eines langen Trends der diskontinuierlich steigenden Finanzinstabilität, der in der Krise 2007/08 gipfelte. Im Rückblick scheint die Krise ein Vorspiel oder Vorwort zu sein, wenn nicht sogar das erste Kapitel einer sich abzeichnenden Ära der Finanzialisierung und der Bankenverwirrung. Als solches hätte es die Reaktion derjenigen beeinflussen können, die die finanzielle Instabilität analysieren und darauf reagieren. Aber wie haben zeitgenössische Beobachter die Episode tatsächlich interpretiert und kontextualisiert? Welche Auswirkungen hat das auf die professionelle Sichtweise und die Politik für den Finanzsektor? Mit Schwerpunkt auf Deutschland überprüfen wir eine umfangreiche Sammlung von Zeitdokumenten, um die Auswirkungen der Krise von 1974 auf die Erwartungen der Experten an Banken und Finanzen zu analysieren.
