Thomas's Books The End of Money and the Future of CivilizationVery few people realize that the nature of money has changed profoundly over the past three centuries, or—as has been clear with the latest global financial crisis—the extent to which it has become a political instrument used to centralize power, concentrate wealth, and subvert popular government. On top of that, the economic growth imperative inherent in the present global monetary system is a main driver of global warming and other environmental crises.  MoneyUnderstanding and Creating Alternatives to Legal TenderLearn the truth about how money is created. Money tells the scandalous story of how our economy came to be based on debt, a system that depends on inequity and undermines local enterprise. Money is also a unique and indispensable handbook for developing community currencies and exchange systems, by one of the founders of Tucson Traders. |
