“This edited volume provides valuable insights into the lived experiences of ordinary citizens who do not neatly fit into the rational, autonomous, self-regarding maximizers category imposed by neoclassical economists. Taken together, this set of ethnographic studies shows that a sense of justice experienced by different social groups at work can give insight into moral aspects of economies throughout the world. Scholars in the fields of economic anthropology, development studies, and labor relations will enjoy reading diverse examples of these phenomena from a wide range of locations across Eurasia.” • Exertions“Each chapter carefully contextualizes the social norms, values, and obligations of their respective local setting to demonstrate how the moral economy is at play in various work situations… This well-conceived volume would allow for an engaging discussion in undergraduate (both anthropology majors and non-majors) and graduate classes focusing on work, globalization, and capitalism.” • Anthropos“Contains a set of impressive ethnographic studies from a wide range of locations, introduced and tied together by an extremely clear, thorough and strong Introduction by Lale Yalçın-Heckmann.” • Frances Pine, Goldsmiths, University of London
