Anthropologies of Value – Cultures of Accumulation Across the Global North and South
Av Geir Henning Presterudstuen, Luis Fernando Angosto–ferrand, 2016.Del av serien Anthropology, Culture and Society.
Cultures of Accumulation Across the Global North and South
Anthropologies of Value analyses the creation of value in a wide range of political and cultural contexts. This edited collection includes anthropological case studies from around the globe; from the commodification of a Venezuelan waterfall to the relative value of penguins in periods of imperialist expansion. Questioning the validity of binary oppositions such as ‘north/south’, ‘core/periphery’ and ‘west/the rest’ as the basis of generalisations about culturally-mediated engagements with capitalism, this collection leaves no stone unturned in its search to understand and define anthropological value theory. It provides much-needed, controversial new material for students of anthropology, and proposes an alternative, rarely discussed method of studying the world system which challenges mainstream existing work in the field.
