Shelling Out: The Origins of Money (2002)
I&#x27;m still curious about what are alternatives to using money. Surely there might be politics and some philosophy involved about how you manage and organize society. Aren&#x27;t local currencies a part of the solution?<p>Money is great because it lets individuals manage their own selves, but I&#x27;m still a little worried about how fraud, abuse and mismanagement can wreak havoc in society when money is abused.<p>Regulating money and everything involved around money seems to be a hard thing, and at some point moving away from money or finding other ways to do things could make sense... Although I&#x27;m curious.<p>Don&#x27;t economists write some philosophy about those things?
