Exploring the concept of money as a construct, the book delves into the experiences of Islamic bankers and proponents of local currencies who challenge traditional financial systems. It examines their innovative approaches to creating alternative forms of money that evade conventional interest practices and national economies. The narrative critically analyzes how these alternative currencies both resist and replicate existing financial structures, raising important questions about their impact on economic scholarship and the future of finance.
