The Theft of Nations

Returning to Gold

Ahamed Kameel Mydin Meera · 2004

Subtitled ‘Returning to Gold’, this book extends Meera’s critique of the modern monetary system, arguing that fiat currency and fractional-reserve banking quietly transfer wealth from ordinary people to those who create money. He contends that seigniorage and inflation amount to a hidden ‘theft’ from nations, and proposes gold and asset-backed money as a remedy. Grounded in Islamic economics, it is a pointed argument about money, power, and fairness in the global financial order.
