Moral Economy at Work : Ethnographic Investigations in Eurasia, Hardback Book

Moral Economy at Work : Ethnographic Investigations in Eurasia Hardback

Edited by Lale Yalcın-Heckmann

Part of the Max Planck Studies in Anthropology and Economy series

Hardback

Description

The idea of a moral economy has been explored and assessed in numerous disciplines.

The anthropological studies in this volume provide a new perspective to this idea by showing how the relations of workers, employees and employers, and of firms, families and households are interwoven with local notions of moralities.

From concepts of individual autonomy, kinship obligations, to ways of expressing mutuality or creativity, moral values exert an unrealized influence, and these often produce more consent than resistance or outrage.
