Notus & Friends Debt: The First 5000 Years (Audiobook) David Graeber
16:12:06
Moral Power of Debt
- "Surely one has to pay one's debts" is a moral, not economic, statement.
- This makes it powerful, able to justify terrible actions by making victims seem wrong.
Malaria in Madagascar
- David Graeber lived in Madagascar during a malaria outbreak.
- IMF-imposed austerity measures cut the mosquito eradication program, causing 10,000 deaths.
Debt's Flexible Power
- Debt's power comes from its flexible definition and our lack of understanding.
- Reframing violence as debt makes it seem moral and blames the victim.
