This book examines crises in financial institutions such as banks from the vantage point of greed of the people at their helm. It offers an intensive analysis of the banking crises under conditions of colonial capitalism in early-twentieth century Bengal that led to institutional and social collapse. Breaking new ground, the work looks at the moral economy of capitalism and money culture by focusing on the victims of banking crises. Through sociological analyses of political economy, it seamlessly combines archival records, survey and statistical data with literary narratives and performing arts.
