Praise
“Aaron Sahr’s book provides a highly accessible synthesis of the state of knowledge on modern money and how it affects the political economy. Readers learn about the nature of fiat money and fiat credit and their contribution the financialization of contemporary capitalism, the conflicts it generates, and the consequences for the state and public policy.”
—Wolfgang Streeck
“Why and how did a company with a huge cash pile in the bank—Apple Inc—set out to borrow $17 billion in 2013? How did the world’s billionaire class accumulate $418 trillion US dollars—an amount five times world income—in the blink of an eye? The answers can be found in this admirably accessible book on the way the globalised, private financial system generates ‘keystroke wealth’ and ‘keystroke capital gains’—but also its nemesis—‘keystroke debt.’ A must-read for all those fretting about the likely next crisis in the evolution of financialised capitalism.”
—Ann Pettifor
