Money, Economy and Society

Mainstream neoclassical economics tells us that money is essentially a commodity, has no other social meanings or consequences, and (therefore) exists only as a medium of exchange to lubricate/facilitate barter. This book takes the view that money is definitively a social relation between private persons or legal persons. As such, it is one of the main building blocks of the complex structure of social relations of capitalism itself.Smithin, John N. is the author of 'Money, Economy and Society' with ISBN 9780415197748 and ISBN 0415197740.
