Before there was money, there was debt
Every economics textbook says the same thing: Money was invented to replace onerous and complicated barter systems—to relieve ancient people from having to haul their goods to market. The problem with this version of history? There’s not a shred of evidence to support it.
Here anthropologist David Graeber presents a stunning reversal of conventional wisdom. He shows that for more than 5,000 years, since the beginnings of the first agrarian empires, humans have used elaborate credit systems to buy and sell goods—that is, long before the invention of coins or cash. It is in this era, Graeber argues, that we also first encounter a society divided into debtors and creditors.
Graeber shows that arguments about debt and debt forgiveness have been at the center of political debates from Italy to China, as well as sparking innumerable insurrections. He also brilliantly demonstrates that the language of the ancient works of law and religion (words like “guilt,” “sin,” and “redemption”) derive in large part from ancient debates about debt, and shape even our most basic ideas of right and wrong. We are still fighting these battles today without knowing it.
Debt: The First 5,000 Years is a fascinating chronicle of this little known history—as well as how it has defined human history, and what it means for the credit crisis of the present day and the future of our economy.

評分首先作者一上来就推翻了古典经济学家关于货币起源的观点:以物易物-》以货币易物。从人类学家，历史学家来观察，作者观察到货币起源是这样的：以债易物-》政府规范债-》创造货币。这样货币的必要性，合法性跟政府是有很大关系的，从根本上怀疑了自由市场鼓吹者的根基。 ...
評分1. 一直很活跃的新左大将 LSE人类学家David Graeber最出名的书，原文很棒。内容涉及左右立场，作为Daivd大粉丝我自然给个满分。 2. 评价翻译是个没意思的事，大家也明白翻译是个吃力不讨好的活儿。明白译文好坏的人，一般也不太会看译文。本书应该董子云同学本科时翻译的，后生...

评分profound
评分David還是很牛逼的，不過在一定程度上，他自己的政治立場會讓他寫的東西略微有些極端，但個人覺得分析很在理。
