| Summary |
This volume provocatively rethinks the economics, politics and sociology of money and examines the classic question of what is money. Starting from the two dominant views of money, as neutral instrument and as social relation, What is Money? presents a thematic, interdisciplinary approach which points to a definitive statement on money.

The contributors are Victoria Chick, Kevin Dowd, Gilles Dostaler, |
