Abstract: Abstract The world is fast becoming a complicated place. The number of interactions each of us has each day would boggle the mind of someone living a few generations ago. And more than at any other time in our history, many of these interactions are economic transactions. From the purchases we make each day, to the bills we pay online, or even to the range of tasks we perform for others in return for a wage, our lives now seem marked by our bit parts in a world economy.
