Abstract

After analyzing the instrumental nature of money, and after warning that this merely instrumental character increases as money becomes more properly money, the present article examines the ultimate root of its being an instrument. That is, the feature or characteristic that allows-and-forces money, in the same proportion in what it is, to make itself an instrument purely and exclusively instrumental. In part, by comparing it with other instruments –classical and contemporary–, it also studies the risks, which can accompany its homogenizing and unrealizable condition.
