I subscribe to Alex Krainer’s Trend Compass channel on Substack, as well as on his YouTube channel. Krainer provides historical lessons which highlight persistent patterns that impact our lives today. He recently published a two part essay on the West under oligarchs which describes the reality of today’s world, which is the prevalence of oligarchic governments in the west hiding behind a facade of democracy. You can read them on Krainer’s Substack or view his video about it on YouTube, but I’ve taken the liberty of asking Google’s NotebookLM to provide this 7 minute video overview to whet your appetite.
The End of Money and the Future of Civilization
The first edition of my book, The End of Money and the Future of Civilization, was published by Chelsea Green Publishing in 2009. While it remains
as relevant today as it was when first published the printed book has been out of print for several years. But, having had the rights reverted to me by my publisher, I am making the entire book available for free in PDF format. You can read it or download it HERE. If you would like a hard copy of the first edition used copies can still be found on Amazon.com, Abe books, Thrift books and elsewhere.
Better still, you can avail yourself of the new revised and expanded 2024 edition which I have been working on for almost two years and is almost complete. Eighteen chapters have already been posted and can be freely read or download HERE.My previous books, as published, may be freely accessed in digital format by clicking the title below.
Money: Understanding and Creating Alternatives to Legal Tender (2001)
New Money For Healthy Communities (1994)
