Description:

The seminar explores capitalism and alternative forms of economic organization, challenging students to reconceptualize "economy" as acultural system. Students compare nonmonetized economic relations in different societies and interactions between economic cores and peripheries. This reconceptualization informs a critical understanding of the implications for participation in the global economic system and its impact on the rest of the world. (Department)
