最大的贡献显而易见是数据。为了写这本书作者还特别去考了STEP证,花了6年时间逐步进入财富管理这个圈子。素材丰富,观察也很细致,很有启发性。但起码对我来说问题是理论的匮乏。作者提到本书的理论贡献:不平等、家庭、全球化、职业化、政治经济学,都是泛泛而谈。我其实很喜欢第六章谈跟国家的关系,「创造性服从 creative compliance」,但也就是浮光掠影,可惜。职业化那个就别提了,如果STEP是成功的,那些不成功的经理人呢?那些没有组织起来的经理人呢?但是数据独特,恰好抓住「全球top1%」的话题。
评分可读性很强的一本书。作者通过在“财富管理”这一领域8年的田野调查和职业经历,揭示了这一职业是如何帮助那些1%们通过各种金融工具避免财富损失,实现代际传递的。更为深刻地是,作者透过这一视角,展现了金融市场同国家之间的关系,不平等的生产过程,以及这一职业是如何合法化(职业化)的过程。获奖实至名归。

Brooke Harrington is Associate Professor of Sociology at Copenhagen Business School, Denmark.
How do the one percent hold on to their wealth? And how do they keep getting richer, despite financial crises and the myriad of taxes on income, capital gains, and inheritance? Capital without Borders takes a novel approach to these questions by looking at professionals who specialize in protecting the fortunes of the world’s richest people: wealth managers. Brooke Harrington spent nearly eight years studying this little-known group—including two years training to become a wealth manager herself. She then “followed the money” to the eighteen most popular tax havens in the world, interviewing practitioners to understand how they helped their high-net-worth clients avoid taxes, creditors, and disgruntled heirs—all while staying just within the letter of the law.
Capital without Borders reveals how wealth managers use offshore banks, shell corporations, and trusts to shield billions in private wealth not only from taxation but from all manner of legal obligations. And it shows how practitioners justify their work, despite evidence that it erodes government authority and contributes to global inequality.
Harrington’s research offers the first glimpse into the tactics and mentality of a secretive profession that controls astonishingly large flows of capital around the world. Based on sixty-five practitioner interviews—conducted in the traditional financial centers of Europe and the Americas as well as the up-and-coming tax havens of Africa, Asia, and the South Pacific—Capital without Borders gives voice for the first time to an elite that has worked quietly and unobtrusively to enrich the one percent.
