Meta Economics: A Process Ontology of Money, Production, and Fiscal Power

This work presents Meta Economics as a foundational position rather than a closed theory. It develops a unified process ontology of economic reality by redefining money, production, labor, value, and fiscal power within a single framework. Rejecting the treatment of money as a stock, a flow, or a controllable variable, the book defines money as a process operating within financial architecture—dependent on counterparty acceptance, time-binding, and risk-binding, and operating across regimes of functioning, suspension, and breakdown. The volume consists of three interconnected books: (1) Money as a process, (2) Production, labor, and value as monetary recognition, (3) Fiscal power as forced participation and process repair. This publication establishes conceptual priority and provides an open, citable reference point for future theoretical, empirical, and policy-oriented research.
