Description

Redefine your understanding of economic value with Towards an Anthropology of Wealth: Imagination, Substance, Value. Moving beyond the narrow definition of wealth as merely accumulated assets, this Routledge publication offers a fresh perspective that views wealth through the lens of reproduction, relational flows, and life vitality. The book presents wealth as a triangular phenomenon involving three key elements: capital, the commons, and power. By examining wealth as a product of relational capacities, the text explores how these resources are constantly contested by various forces, including finance, community, and the state. This academic work examines the different perceptions and practices of wealth across various contexts. It provides a deep look into how wealth is pulled and shaped by different societal demands. Whether you are studying sociology, anthropology, or political economy, this book offers a necessary framework for understanding how value is constructed and maintained in the modern world.
