Overview
- Compares the models with which lay individuals work with ‘official’ models of money and the economy
- Provides an important perspective on lay discourses and behaviours with money, something of great value to those who would encourage ‘good’ financial behaviour and economic literacy
- Makes clear that while money may be conceptualised as a thing it is rather an index of a range of other emotions, beliefs, relationships and social structures
