If popular knowledge about money creation was once widely shared, how and why did it disappear? In this astute new work, Jakob Feinig shows how the relation between money users and money-issuing governments changed from British colonial North America to today's United States, discussing how popular movements reshaped money-creating institutions, and how their opponents attempted to silence them. He also reveals how monetary and political history unfolds in the tension between "moral economies of money" and "monetary silencing." Offering an introduction to money creation practices since the colonial era, the book enables readers to understand why most people are disconnected from knowledge about money creation today. At the same time, the book also allows readers to situate the recent prominence of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) against a broader historical background. Historians of capitalism, economic and political sociologists, social theorists, anthropologists of money, and anyone seeking to understand monetary activism, will find this book helps to clarify present-day possibilities in light of historical processes. 410 0$aCurrencies (Series) 606 $aMonetary policy$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aCurrency question$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aMoney$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aMoney$xMoral and ethical aspects$zUnited States$xHistory 615 0$aMonetary policy$xHistory. 615 0$aCurrency question$xHistory. 615 0$aMoney$xPolitical aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aMoney$xMoral and ethical aspects$xHistory. 676 $a332.4973 700 $aFeinig$b Jakob$01594012 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821624103321 996 $aMoral Economies of Money$93914407 997 $aUNINA
