Who here read David Graeber's "Debt: The First 5000 Years?"
I'm curious what peoples' thoughts on it. I already have my own thoughts on it, but for something I'm working on I'm interested in hearing ...
My main takeaway was that the often described "natural" historical evolution path of barter, shells, gold, banking etc don't have any sufficient antropologic proof of being true.
And if not true, why is that story so often told and who benifits from it being presented?
