Where does the power of money come from? Why is trust so important
in financial operations? How does the swapping of gifts differ from
the exchange of commodities? Where does self-interest stop and
communal solidarity start in capitalist economies?
These issues and many more are discussed in a rigorous, yet
readable, manner in Social Foundations of Markets, Money and
Credit. It is shown in particular that capitalist economies are
permeated with non-economic characteristics.
This carefully argued book will prove interesting and valuable to
students and researchers not only in economics, but also in
sociology and anthropology. Well-informed critics of capitalism
will also find it a useful read.
