This is the first volume in a career defining trilogy of works by George Caffentzis. The book situates John Locke's philosophy of knowledge and his political theory within his engagement in British monetary debates of the 17th and 18th century.Anchored in extensive archival research, Caffentzis offers the most expansive reading of Locke's work to date, contextualising it within the expansion of capitalist accumulation on a world scale and the universality of money as a medium of exchange.Updated with a new author's preface, a foreword by Peter Linebaugh and an editorial introduction by Paul Rekret, Clipped Coins, Abused Words & Civil Government promises to make a significant intervention in contemporary debates around the history of capitalism, colonialism, and philosophy.
