InMoney in an Unequal World, the focus is the Internet, which Keith Hart agrees holds the potential for a re-personalization of economic relations. In this world, new means of exchange could be harnessed to the ends of a truer economic democracy. Money is the problem, but it is also the solution. The author offers a new view on the interaction between money, capitalism, and culture—now, in the future, and throughout history. This insightful new book will challenge established views from all quarters of economic, political, and social thought.Money in an Unequal World is money itself—especially now that the exchange of objects through money and the exchange of meanings through language are converging into a single network of communications. Money is becoming information and information is becoming money. In this world, Hart reveals, new means of exchange could be harnessed to build a better future. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
