Financialism, also known as Bankocracy and Trapezocracy, is a form of government where banks and other financial institutions have political power to rule.

History

  • The term Bankocracy was first used in 1797 by the Scottish deputy and soldier William Fullarton, who stated that "It is Bankocracy which threatens the destruction of the social order... negotiations and peace". Subsequently, several authors and writers on the left have already used the ruling system as a derogatory term, the most notable being: Proudhon, Bakunin and Marx. It is also used in Marxist economics as a way of describing finance capitalism.

Currently, this term is used in a derogatory way by populists to describe the European Union and various financial crises, and some have used it in a derogatory way to capitalism.
