• Financialization of the Economy (2015, background): “This prevalent “finance culture” creates an image of the individual as an “investing subject” (Aitken 2007, p.13), who “insures himself against the risks of the life cycle through financial literacy and self-discipline” (van der Zwan 2014, p.113).”
• Geographies of money and finance II (2012, background): “It is this latter strand on the inescapability of finance as everyday life becomes increasingly financialized (Aitken, 2007; Martin, 2002) that is most relevant for my arguments here.”
• Financialisation, Financial Literacy and Asset-Based Welfare (2009, background): “This cultural dimension to economic and financial phenomena is recognised by political economists attentive to developments in rhetorical, discursive and semiotic analysis or to ‘culturalist’ concerns more generally (see Jessop and Sum 2001; Jessop 2004; Aitken 2007, ch. 1).”

• Financialization and the Consumer Credit Boom (2008, unknown): “…Martin 2002), and on work that outlines the assembly of ‘investor subjects’ with reference to the Foucauldian-inspired category of ‘governmentality’ (Aitken 2007; Knights 1997; Langley 2006b, 2007), I suggest that the making of financial subjects and financial self-disciplines more broadly…”
