" Graeber has written a very dense book. Instead of taking a classic economic perspective on debt, money, markets and state he takes an anthropological perspective. By looking at the history of debt he tries to show that the dichotomy that we see between states and markets is false. He does this to target and attack our current thinking about capitalism (which can only work if we believe it is finite) and about money (an oppressive tool surround by violence). This book is full of incredible stories. His thinking is so different from other people, that I found it very difficult to judge it. This book merits some rereading and pondering. "
