Poids lourds de l'économie sociale et solidaire (ESS), les banques mutalistes se sont, semble-t-il, moins exposées aux risques élevés que d'autres établissements.

Son histoire de la dette est un best-seller aux Etats-Unis. Et pour cause : l'anthropologue David Graeber y milite pour qu'on efface l'ardoise. Fiche de lecture.

David Graeber, anthropologue et économiste nous dit: "La dette est un problème moral, pas un problème économique. C'est la dette qui fait la monnaie" et il rappelle aussi "le crédit a précédé le monnaie et la dette", ou bien: "Historiquement, les marchés commerciaux sont nés du vol".
L'apport de l'histoire des sociétés, un regard sur le conflit des générations, la question de l'accroissement des inégalités font également partie des échanges.

50 years of communist rule still affect opportunities in Germany today, as these maps show. What they don't show is the social mirror that each provides to the other and the rich discussions about social policy that result. Reunification has been an expensive exercise for Germany, however one that it is committed to.
The Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, but its influence is still present in today's Germany. History plays a key role in the shaping of political boundaries and that history is clearly evident in Germany. The line where the Berlin wall once stood still divides the country economically. The western part of Germany is far more economically affluent than the east. The USSR may be gone, but its influence still remains.
These two maps (unemployment on the left and disposable income on the right) are but two examples in this article that highlights the lingering distinctions between the two parts of Germany that were reunited 25 years ago. The social geographies imposed by the Iron Curtain and the Berlin Wall are still being felt from this relic border and will for years to come.
