Beskrivning

In Modernities, Class, and the Contradictions of Globalization, two distinguished anthropologists look at how global processes have shaped the emergence of our dynamic and often difficult and contradictory modern world. The authors are particularly interested in structures that link individual human beings to more general social transformations. This book is a synthesis of the Friedmans' decades-long anthropological research into the human consequences—whether for good or bad—of globalization.

Recensioner i media

Weaving together a provocative and innovative approach to the global process of social reproduction, Kajsa Ekholm Friedman and Jonathan Friedman move beyond glib and fashionable globalization-speak and identity-talk. In a series of broad-ranging essays, they challenge us to rethink the logic of modernity and issues of political economy, class, cultural authenticity, and representation.
