New book by Professor Peter Little is now available: “Advanced Introduction to Economic Anthropology”

Professor Peter D. Little, Samuel Candler Dobbs Professor of Anthropology and Director of Global Development Studies, recently published a book titled, Advanced Introduction to Economic Anthropology

The book illustrates how an anthropological perspective can deepen understandings of customary and global markets; different types of money; diversified livelihoods of the poor; gendered and racialized labor; climate change and other global issues. By questioning common dichotomies, such as the informal versus formal sectors and customary versus modern institutions, the book uncovers those hidden connections, power relations, and economic actors and processes that underpin real economies throughout the world.
