"#DavidGraeber was the #anthropologist who re-framed economics by showing that its most basic assumptions were myths.
Where conventional economists traced money to barter and exchange, #Graeber traced it to trust and relationships. He argued that the origins of money lay not in #markets but in #morality: in obligations, promises, and the human capacity for cooperation." -
