Boekbeoordeling

Meer over het boek

The book explores the violent and oppressive origins of money, challenging the conventional narrative of its development through barter. David McNally argues that money's rise is closely linked to slavery and warfare, illustrating how these elements have shaped its evolution. He posits that money embodies a concentrated force of social power, redefining it as a means of command over individuals and their bodies, rather than just labor. This provocative study reexamines the historical context of money, revealing its deep ties to human bondage and domination.
