The World of Goods Towards an Anthropology of Consumption
- Binding: Paperback
- Edition: 2
- Publisher: Routledge
- Publish date: 10/01/1996
Description:
This book answers questions about why people save, why they spend, what they buy, and why they sometimes but not always make fine distinctions about quality. It is well-understood now that consumption goods communicate, create identity and establish relationships. But not so well-known that goods exclude as well as include, and that the pattern of their flow corresponds to the form of society. This book will be essential reading for students and lecturers in anthropology and economics.
