Description

Clipped Coins, Abused Words, and Civil Government is a provocative critique of John Locke's economic beliefs, language theories, and philosophy of history and the state. The book begins with the 17th-century English crisis of clipped silver currency and expands into a challenging examination of Locke's ideas.

Caffentzis' treatment of Locke's work is ampliative and interventionist, extending beyond standard critical analysis to engage with contemporary debates in monetary theory. This original work offers a fresh perspective on the foundations of economic thought.

With 246 pages, this paperback edition presents a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the intersections between philosophy, economics, and language.
