Danny and Derek welcome back Stefan Eich, assistant professor of government at Georgetown University, to continue the discussion of his book The Currency of Politics. They focus on the oft-overlooked work of Johann Gottlieb Fichte, state experimentation with fiat currencies in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, parallels with modern crypto currencies, MMT, and more.
