Book Review: On the Digital Semiosphere: Culture, Media and Science for the Anthropocene
Media International Australia. 2021. No. Online. P. 1–3.

В истории Индии деньги сыграли важную роль. С древних времен торговые сообщества прибрежных и внутренних регионов связывали субконтинент с различными цивилизациями. Одним из ключевых аспектов этой торговли было то, что наряду с денежным обменом происходил обмен культурными ценностями и традициями. Деньги были не только инструментом обмена товарами, но и "культурным капиталом". Появление денег в Индии ...
