One of the things we will have to include in post-capitalist environmental design is a new system of money. This diary is a preliminary investigation of this, continuing from the last diary on post-capitalist economic design. Here I will discuss in brief the fate of the US dollar, the idea of the “time dollar” as explained by the founders of the Echo Park Time Bank, and the ideas of Hutchinson, Mellor, and Olsen’s The Politics of Money.
