Link [1] Complementary currencies for humanitarian aid
Commons based moneis for an inclusive future, ignorant of money’s internal design, these strategies look past how the form money takes shapes the behaviour they so want to change. A pattern of thought that sees money as an asset blinds us both to the malleability of the monetary architecture and to money’s institutional capacity to organise the very system of production. Implicitly building their analysis on an assumption that money is neutral to the inner workings of the real economy, they disregard the very element of the system that gives the economy its boundary, shape, dynamic and rhythm. While urgent, such solutions are bound to remain inoffensive and marginal because the monetary infrastructure that surreptitiously steers the economy towards over-exploitation and degradation is kept intact.
