Fragment from David Graeber’s book describing 18th century of joint-stock companies.

There is a lot to learn from history.

from history, yes. from Graeber’s consistently statist interpretation, not so much imo 😂

Is he a statist? From what he is more like an anarchist

*from what I know

much of his arguments basically boil down “money can’t exist at scale without the state”. I’m hating though, so take it with a grain of salt 😉

That’s just interpratation. He was against the state and especially global organizations like IMF. Organized movements like Occupy Wall Street and considered himself anarchist.
