{"product_id":"trading-futures-filipe-maia-9781478016144","title":"Trading Futures: A Theological Critique of Financialized Capitalism","description":"The discourse of financialized capitalism tries to create a future predictable enough to manage risk for the wealthy, to shape the future into a profit-making site that constrains and privatizes the sense of what's possible. Here, people's hopes and meaning-making energies are policed through the burden of debt. In \u003ci\u003eTrading Futures\u003c\/i\u003e Filipe Maia offers a theological reflection on hope and the future, calling for escape routes from the debt economy. Drawing on Marxism, continental philosophy, and Latin American liberation theology, Maia provides a critical portrayal of financialization as a death-dealing mechanism that colonizes the future in its own image. Maia elaborates a Christian eschatology of liberation that offers a subversive mode of imagining future possibilities. He shows how the Christian vocabulary of hope can offer a way to critique the hegemony of financialized capitalism, propelling us in the direction of a just future that financial discourse cannot manage or control.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Filipe Maia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1478016140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781478016144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Duke University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/28\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Filipe Maia","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44071491240191,"sku":"9781478016144","price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f1902004-dc2b-4477-8337-8cf22d15bd3b.jpg?v=1685436413","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/trading-futures-filipe-maia-9781478016144","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
