    From “Man is the Measure of all things” to Money is the Measure of all things: A dialogue between Protagoras and African Philosophy
    (Journal of the South African Society for Greek Philosophy. 9(1): 22–40, 2008) Ajei, M.O.; Ramose, M. D.
    Protagoras declaration that “man is the measure of all things” is conventionally discussed in the context of epistemology. There was, however, a communal or social dimension to this which, in the process of time, assumed greater intensity and expanded systematically into all aspects of human relations. The centrality of money in these relations speaks to the transition from “man is the measure of all things” to money is the measure of all things. The article proposes to defend this thesis in the context of conceptual orientation of NEPAD and the global economic order.
