Description

Harnessing Fortune: Personhood, Memory and Place in Mongolia provides a deep look into life along the Mongolian-Russian border. Based on long-term fieldwork with herding families, this volume examines how people manage past memories in their homes while navigating new ways to accumulate wealth and fortune. As families face political and economic uncertainties, the book explores the intersection of past traditions and the morality of modern wealth accumulation. This study reveals how these forces shape intimate social relations, offering a new perspective on the study of kinship in anthropology. By combining personal experience with ethnographic insight, this Oxford University Press publication serves as an essential resource for those interested in social sciences and Mongolian culture.
