Global Magic : Technologies of Appropriation from Ancient Rome to Wall Street Hardback
by Alf Hornborg
Part of the Palgrave Studies in Anthropology of Sustainability series
Hardback
Description
Modern thought on economics and technology is no less magical than the world views of non-modern peoples.
This book reveals how our ideas about growth and progress ignore how money and machines throughout history have been used to exploit less affluent parts of world society.
The argument critically explores a middle ground between Marxist political ecology and Actor-Network Theory.
