In The Cash Nexus, historian Niall Ferguson explores the crucial relationship between money and politics over three centuries, arguing that economic forces alone do not drive historical change—political decisions, wars, and institutional structures play an equally significant role. Covering events from the rise of modern financial systems in the 18th century to the economic transformations of the late 20th century, Ferguson examines how taxation, national debt, inflation, and banking have influenced the fate of nations.

Through a detailed analysis of financial crises, military conflicts, and economic policies, Ferguson challenges the idea that free markets alone dictate history. Instead, he reveals how financial power, political ambition, and historical contingencies shape the global economy.
