Understanding Money (eBook, ePUB)

Philosophical Frameworks of Monetary Value

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book offers a novel understanding of money distinct from the dominant lens of economics through which it is usually observed. In contrast to the economic frameworks of 'money', the volume examines philosophical discourses on money through conceptual frameworks that explain how monetary value manifests in various empirical monetary systems.
