Drawing on European legal texts, policy documents and interviews with regulators, central bankers and financial professionals, this book is rich in empirical detail which reveals a close-knit set of knowledge problems, or paradoxes, of the market. The book demonstrates how the market is adopted from economic theory into European treaty law.
