This involves understanding and explaining complex financial instruments (like sub-prime mortgages and collateralised debt obligations), the governance of international finance and its deregulation (and its consequences), eye-watering banking losses (over $20 trillion), the organisations and individuals responsible for this happening (in financial services, government, academia) and the people plunged into poverty and homelessness after defaulting on their mortgages. The complexity is explained clearly in the film by narrator Matt Damon. And by the talking heads who Ferguson recruits to talk about what happened, their role in it, how they see their responsibilities, why so much public money was spent bailing them out, and why none of them went to jail. For many audience members, it&#8217;s shocking to see executives explaining how business works on camera. The logics and passions that drive their work, and the values that they express, can seem removed from the world, callous and dehumanising. But the experts who come out of this film looking worst are the academic economists. One of the biggest impacts of this film is the way that it encourages university business schools to look more closely at their ethics. Who are economists working for, and how responsible is their education of new generations of economists if their ideas remain unchanged after the Crisis? This is another example showing how important and how difficult it is to &#8216;follow the money&#8217;. But like any following study, it&#8217;s also about the ways that responsibility &#8211; in this case, for a colossal economic injustice &#8211; is understood, shared, taken. And where it isn&#8217;t. The solution sees obvious to many &#8211; regulation! But it&#8217;s not happening. If one film was going to cause a revolution, one commentor states, it would be this one. And this is just a taster page for this film.

However, once the cold arm of corporate greed reaches in, the horizon soon darkens. Deregulated provision of natural resources and financial services resulted in a country with a GDB of $13bn racking up bank losses of $100bn. Iceland was a blip on the radar, but still an early sign of looming disaster. The film then goes on to effectively simplify the over-arching causes of the disaster; pointing largely towards the lack of regulation of the markets and increasingly complex financial instruments being used to speculate (gamble) on anything from oil prices to the weather. The completely unregulated derivatives market is worth $50 trillion, attempts to control the market were dismissed by government officials who received $5bn political contributions from Wall Street between 1998 and 2008. Collateralised debt obligations were used to lump in all kinds of debt (from mortgages and credit card debt to student loans) into one easy to manage unit which could be sold.

Yes, it&#8217;s all true. But that&#8217;s exactly the point.

continuously runs his fingernails down the blackboard \u2026 It is supposed to act as a microcosm of our current predicament. We then learn how banks were deregulated in the 80s following 40 years of growth and prosperity. Greed fuelled decisions for banks to take risky investments which led to short term growth but eventually the recession, bailouts, and the housing crises. We learn how this new system was perpetuated and even how many of the people responsible haven\u2019t been tried for crimes and how some are even still making decisions or holding economic positions (Source: Kaiser 2011, np <a href=\"https:\/\/href.li\/?http:\/\/filmreviewsnsuch.blogspot.co.uk\/2011\/04\/inside-job.html\">link<\/a>). <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-not-stacked-on-mobile has-small-font-size is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:7.99%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized has-custom-border wp-duotone-midnight\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"868\" height=\"872\" src=\"https:\/\/follow-the-things.onyx-sites.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-99\" style=\"border-radius:100px;object-fit:cover;width:43px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png 868w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-768x772.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 868px) 100vw, 868px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:92.01%\">\n<p>[In] the little 12-minute \u201cThe making of Inside Job\u201d mini-movie tucked in the extras folder of the [film&#8217;s Blu-ray] disc &#8230; I discovered that Ferguson is&nbsp;FAR from being a bomb-thrower. &nbsp;In fact, his attitude seems that of a rich man (he sold his software company Vermeer for $133 million in 1996) who is sadly disappointed by the ethical failings of some in the financial services business. &nbsp;(He might have even lost a large chunk of his nest egg and is pissed by the thieves who stole it.) &nbsp;His film does not examine the systemic failings of the&nbsp;<em>institutions<\/em>&nbsp;of finance \u2013 rather it looks for (and finds) bad guys (Source: Larson &amp; Wikrent 2011, np <a href=\"https:\/\/href.li\/?http:\/\/real-economics.blogspot.co.uk\/2011\/03\/another-look-at-inside-job.html\">link<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-not-stacked-on-mobile has-small-font-size is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:7.99%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized has-custom-border wp-duotone-purple-green\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"868\" height=\"872\" src=\"https:\/\/follow-the-things.onyx-sites.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-99\" style=\"border-radius:100px;object-fit:cover;width:43px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png 868w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-768x772.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 868px) 100vw, 868px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:92.01%\">\n<p>I don\u2019t think I\u2019m an anti-capitalist or anti-business at all.

documentary\u201d Inside Job\u201d, has approved more stringent rules for disclosing potential conflicts of interest among faculty. The changes, approved last week by B-school professors, come after the&nbsp;provocative documentary brought embarrassing attention to academics who profit from unreported consulting and directorship deals with companies and organizations and then weigh in as \u201cobjective\u201d observers on key policy issues in economics and financial regulation. The documentary was especially discomforting to Columbia Business School Dean R. Glenn Hubbard and Columbia B-school professor Frederic S. Mishkin. Under Columbia\u2019s new policy, Business School professors will be required to publicly disclose all outside activities &#8211; including consulting &#8211; that create or appear to create conflicts of interest. The new policy requires B-school professors to publish up-to-date curricula vitae, including a section on outside activities, on their Columbia webpages. They will be mandated to list all outside organizations to which they have provided paid or unpaid services during the past five years, including but not limited to consulting work, research, membership on a company\u2019s board, and expert witness testimony. They will also have to describe the nature of those services (Source: Byrne 2011, np <a href=\"https:\/\/href.li\/?http:\/\/poetsandquants.com\/2011\/05\/18\/inside-job-causes-changes-at-columbia\/\">link<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-not-stacked-on-mobile has-small-font-size is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:7.99%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized has-custom-border wp-duotone-grayscale\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"868\" height=\"872\" src=\"https:\/\/follow-the-things.onyx-sites.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-99\" style=\"border-radius:100px;object-fit:cover;width:43px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04.png 868w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/followthethings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-08-at-17.49.04-768x772.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 868px) 100vw, 868px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:92.01%\">\n<p>One thing Inside Job does is to make financial innovation discussable within the public space. In other words, it makes finance arguable and debatable. But there has been a response, in a good direction. A number of universities, in response to the film, held public meetings and conferences of various kinds about the accountability of economists, a couple of which I attended \u2010 there was one at Columbia University, another one at Stanford University. And a number of universities tightened their conflict of interest regulations and disclosure requirements\u2026 there is an increased awareness among students and the media. And I have noticed recently a different attitude towards academics in several articles in The New York Times and other prominent media. It is not taken for granted that they are objective. And sometimes conflicts of interest are actually pointed out in the article. That is a big step forward. I am actually very proud of what the film has done in this regard (Source: Ferguson &amp;  Muniesa 2012, p.27 <a
