"This collection of essays explores one of the most striking ambiguities of money: its ability both to liberate and enslave.... This is an especially valuable enterprise...."-International Journal of African Historical Studies
Reseña del editor
By examining currency and value in African communities, this collection highlights ordinary people's conceptions of money, their innovations in its use, and the interactions between indigenous and international monetary systems. "Money Matters" complements the new history of imperialism, suggests fresh ways of analyzing money in developing areas, and contributes to a new economic anthropology of West Africa.
