O knihe
Gustav Peebles takes an anthropological look at two seemingly separatedevelopments in Europe at the turn of the millennium: the rollout of the euro andthe building of new transnational regions such as the Oresund Region, envisioned asa melding of Copenhagen, Denmark, with Malm, Sweden. Peebles argues that the driveto create such transnational spaces is inseparable from the drive to create apan-national currency. He studies the practices and rhetoric surrounding thenational currencies of Denmark and Sweden, the euro, and several new "localcurrencies" struggling to come into being. The Euro and Its Rivals provides adeep historical study of the welfare state and the monetary policies and utopianvisions that helped to ground it, at the same time shedding new light on thecontemporary movement of goods, people, credit, and debt.
