Aaron Sahr is a philosopher turned economic sociologist. He is visiting professor at Leuphana University Lüneburg, Germany, and head of the research group "Monetary Sovereignty" at the Hamburg Institute for Social Research. His research interests include the sociology of money, facts and fictions about monetary policy, the history of capitalism, inequality, and social ontology.

In the money-creation privilege of private banks, Aaron Sahr discovers a precarious mechanism of inequality reinforcement to which the regulation of capitalist economic activity has paid far too little attention to date.
