This book brings together examples of attempts to forge locally appropriate versions of modernity; development that suits the aspirations and circumstances of particular groups of people. Authors question how the market economy has been variously negotiated by groups who also have other systems through which they organize their social and economic life. What has worked for these people, what has not, and why? The volume addresses how, as a social and economic system, capitalism has been very effective in generating wealth and technological innovation, but has also been associated with great social inequity and environmental damage. Its inherent flaws have been highlighted by the escalation of ecological problems arising from growth-oriented capitalism and various economic crises, the latest being the Global Financial Crisis and its ongoing fallout. 410 0$aResearch in economic anthropology ;$vv. 33. 606 $aCapitalism$zOceania 615 0$aCapitalism 676 $a306.3420995 701 $aMcCormack$b Fiona$f1970-$01250657 701 $aBarclay$b Kate$0801524 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786854903321 996 $aEngaging with capitalism$93771740 997 $aUNINA
