Today (1/17) the Boston Globe had an article about the barter economy, featuring the concept of "Labor dollars" which are popular in a number of localities.
Part of the reason I have subscribed to this list is to find out more about the interelationships possible between barter systems and e-money. As newbie to the list I don't want to bore anyone with well known facts but... Does anyone have detailed knowledge of the works of Silvio Gesell, for example? (He was a prominent theoretician of barter systems at the turn of the century.) Can anyone tell me how I can get my hands on a copy of the LET system version of the board game "Monopoly"? ~~~~~~~ Hasan Bramwell Casilla 17-17-1004 Freehand Quito, Ecuador Internet: Ecuanet hasan@pi.pro.ec Compuserve: 70322,2617
