ANTH 2190 - Desire and World Economics

Institution:

University of Virginia-Main Campus

Subject:

Anthropology

Description:

This course offers an insight into the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services practiced by peoples ignored or unknown to classic Western economics. Its principle focus will open upon the obvious differences between cultural concepts of the self and the very notion of its desire. Such arguments as those which theorize on the “rationality” of the market and the “naturalness” of competition will be debunked.
