Mongol Finance: Borderless Nomad Rhizomatic Partnership Networks Volume I
by Bukhan Purvan Zayabat
Mongol Finance: Borderless Nomad Rhizomatic Partnership Networks is a groundbreaking exploration of a financial system born from the wind-swept steppes, rooted in Tengriist values, and shaped by centuries of nomadic innovation. Long overshadowed by the sedentary financial systems of the East and West—and often mischaracterized as an offshoot of Islamic finance—Mongol Finance emerges here as a distinct, autonomous tradition: borderless, partnership-based, rhizomatic, and built for multiplicity.
This book argues that Mongol Finance was never merely a historical curiosity, but rather a living model of universal nomad capitalism—a decentralized, trust-based, self-organizing economy that empowered transcontinental trade across Eurasia. With philosophical grounding in Deleuzian thought—rhizomes, lines of flight, assemblages, and planes of immanence—it reconstructs how the Mongol Ortoq system, kurultai governance, and multi-ethnic trading coalitions shaped one of the most dynamic partnership networks the world has ever seen.
At its core, Mongol Finance is not just history—it is a vision for the future. In an age of decentralized finance (DeFi), digital nomadism, and planetary-scale markets, the wisdom of the Mongol economic ethos is more relevant than ever. This book calls for a renaissance of borderless finance: one that affirms dignity, co-creation, fluid identity, and economic freedom for all.
Mongol Finance is not Islamic banking. It is not Western capitalism. It is something else entirely—a new map for the global future that the world has not yet fully discovered.
