Losing Interest
This sharp historical analysis argues that our modern obsession with economic growth, particularly the concept of interest, is not a natural progression but a historically constructed one. The book traces how charging interest, once viewed with suspicion, became central to European colonial expansion and the development of global capitalism, often built upon exploitation and violence. It's a compelling read for anyone questioning the foundations of our economic system and seeking to understand the roots of inequality.
