Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Devin Kennedy, "Coding Capitalism: Computers and the Remaking of the Postwar US Economy" (Columbia UP, 2026)

Q: Can you introduce yourself and explain why you decided to write Coding Capitalism?

I'm an assistant professor of history who studies the long relationship between capitalism and digital technology; the book emerged from a decade of research into how computing originated in the postwar period to address economic disruptions, labor, and management, and how this history informs our understanding of AI and the digital economy today.

Brendan Greeley, "The Almighty Dollar: 500 Years of the World's Most Powerful Money" (Crown, 2026)

Q: What was the most surprising archival discovery during your fieldwork?

The Hayward, Iowa discovery and the 1932-1933 Depression-era local dollar program, including stamped notes and the hardware store ledger, revealed how local actors attempted to internalize monetary stimulus when banks failed.

Brendan Greeley, "The Almighty Dollar: 500 Years of the World's Most Powerful Money" (Crown, 2026)

Q: Why is the dollar treated as a global currency in the book's framing?

The interviewee argues that the dollar's global role emerged from historical trade, mining, and banking infrastructures across Europe, the Americas, and Asia, not merely from American sovereignty, and is reinforced by the Bretton Woods era and the eurodollar market.

Brendan Greeley, "The Almighty Dollar: 500 Years of the World's Most Powerful Money" (Crown, 2026)

Q: How did you first become drawn to the history of money and finance?

Brendan explains his switch from journalism to deep archival work in history, driven by the sense that money is foundational and understudied; he emphasizes learning from archives and ledgers to understand the real mechanics of money beyond textbook models.

Kate Bayliss, "Privatising Humanity: How Our Essential Human Needs Became Financial Assets" (Manchester UP, 2026)

Q: What reforms or political economy changes could realistically fix the problems highlighted in the book?

A radical shift is needed from market narratives to viewing essential services as human rights, with public ownership reimagined and implemented with transparency and democratic participation to ensure access and affordability for all.
