What happens to society when exchange fails? The root of economy is the household, whose members make a living in relation to other people, and in culturally shaped ways. The ''world economic system" of the late 20th Century global village consists of many ill-fitting parts with different histories and goals. These functioning and changing households, markets, technologies, and concepts of work, property, and the good life are studied from a cross-cultural perspective. Also focuses on the impact of industrial societies on tribal and peasant economies. Prerequisite: ANTH 146 or instructor permission. Graded: Graded Student. Units: 3.0
