Full Description
Mobile money, e-commerce, cash cards, retail credit cards, and more - as new monetary technologies become increasingly available, the global South has embraced these mediums as a simple solution to the issue of financial inclusion. How, if at all, do new forms of dematerialized money impact people's everyday financial lives? In what way do technologies interact with financial repertoires and other socio-cultural institutions? These questions are at the heart of Money at the Margins, a groundbreaking exploration of the uses and socio-cultural impact of new forms of money and financial services.
