This thing (aka my book, aka the source of my stress dreams for 5 years) has a cover and is on a webpage! Never thought I’d see the day.

Pre-order it now, ready for your 2022 summer holiday…

Happy book-release day to Trevor Jackson, whose awesome "Impunity and Capitalism" comes out today from @CambridgeUP!

It's a must-read for anyone curious about the strange notions of responsibility that undergird modern capitalism.

Delighted to see Trevor's extraordinary book, Impunity and Capitalism, with its remarkable cover, published at last! It is a history of capitalism told via who was and who wasn't immune from prosecution after financial crises. At first it was no-one, then it was everyone.

[Andrew Popp @andrewpopp6]

Oh yes, proofs arrived! @ML_Cooper

[Steve Westlake @SWestlake]

Well this I’ve never been able to say this before…someone has reviewed my book!

Which reminds me…my book is out. You know, just in case you’re Jonesing for a bank holiday read about the history of how, when, and where people in Britain invested in the 20th century.

[Amy Edwards @amy_edwards__]

@GavinBenke @BH__journal Ahhh - thank you so much! Still feels weird to think of people reading this, let along taking to time to write about it. Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!

In 1972, Uganda expelled its Asian population. Many of them were British passport holders, yet Britain tried all it could to avoid responsibility for them. Historian Saima Nasar writes for @newlinesmag on what history might — and might fail — to teach us. https://t.co/Jot9CN2O10
