Making a case for a denationalized global currency as an alternative to the dollar, euro, and yen as the world vehicular and reserve currencies, God and Money explores the significance and theological-ethical implications of money as a social relation in the light of the dynamic relations of the triune God. Wariboko deftly analyzes the dynamics at work in the global monetary system and argues that the monarchical-currency structure of the dollar, euro, and yen may be moving toward a trinitarian structure of a democratic world currency.

God and Money is a unique theological exploration of the significance of money. Its relational ethic challenges the imperial domination of the euro and the dollar in the economies of the developing world, especially Africa, and calls for the creation of a single global currency. It is a provocative and creative work.
