Book Description
"Major compilation of historical and anthropological articles focuses on the nature of markets and exchange structures in the Andes. Prominent scholars explore Andean participation in the European market structure, the influence of migration in changing ethnic boundaries and spheres of exchange, and the politics of market exchange during the colonial period. Larson's introduction places articles within the context of Andean economic systems, while Harris concludes with an appreciation of the relationships between mestizo and indigenous ethnic identities in the context of market relations. Both introduction and conclusion lend a greater coherence to this carefully-crafted and monumental volume"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.

Property in Economic Context
Author: Robert C. Hunt
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 430
Book Description
Co-published with the Society for Economic Anthropology, Property in Economic Context presents fifteen original essays examining the definition and organization of property in the context of economic organization. Focusing on precapitalist societies as accessed through history and archaeology, as well as modern colonial encounters accessed through ethnography, the essays argue for and illustrate the importance of including specific property features when doing an analysis of economic organization. This is the first time that general property issues have been empirically investigated in this manner.

The Economic Anthropology of the State
Author: Elizabeth M. Brumfiel
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
This work examines the scope, rationality and limits of state intervention in the economy, drawing upon studies of tribute-based states of antiquity and modern capitalist states. In examining how state personnel intervene in the economy, this book draws three conclusions about the economic anthropology of the state. First, there is a great range of variation in the way that states intervene in the economy. Second, the economic impact of the state extends far beyond its role in organising or managing production and distribution. Finally, understanding the economic anthropology of the state requires an awareness of the strength of powerholders outside the state, especially those who are often regarded as powerless.
