Abstract | The literature on the Eurozone crisis overlooks two defining features of the crisis, namely the initial attempt to rely on Private Sector Involvement and financial repression in order to deal with liquidity crises in member states. This paper argues that these gaps stem from the neglect of the concept of corporate power by the literature and offers an analysis of how the crisis emerged and was ultimately resolved in 2008-12 that instead revolves on an account of how corporate structural power determined the outcome of the crisis. La littérature sur la crise de la zone euro ignore deux dimensions déterminantes de cette crise, à savoir la tentative initiale d'avoir recours au Private Sector Involvement (les restructurations des dettes) et à la répression financière, pour traiter les crises de liquidité dans les États-membres. Ce working paper soutient que ces lacunes sont dues au fait que la littérature ignore le concept de corporate power (pouvoir des grandes entreprises). Il propose par conséquent une analyse de l'apparition et de la résolution de la crise en 2008-12 qui repose sur un récit de la manière dont le pouvoir structurel des grandes entreprises a déterminé le cours des événements. | |
