David Graeber on Debt at THBTP Salon

Anarchist anthropologist and lecturer at Goldsmiths University, David Graeber discusses his new book ‘Debt; the first 5000 years’ at THBTP salon. He discusses the relevance of debt to understanding our world today, the direct relationship of debt to morals, three modes of interaction (of which debt, through the mode of exchange, has a hegemony over others) and finally some discussion on monetary transactions and the relationship of money to power and nation states.

The Haircut Before The Party Salon (THBTP) began in 2010 at a squatted house in East London opened and occupied by 15 artists and activists.
