Before lighting up our homes, it changes hands through specialized electricity markets that rely on engineering expertise to trade competitively while respecting the physical requirements of the electric grid. The Current Economy is an ethnography of electricity markets in the United States that shows the heterogenous and technologically inflected nature of economic expertise today. Based on ethnographic fieldwork among market data analysts, electric grid engineers, and citizen activists, this book provides a deep dive into the convoluted economy of electricity and its reverberations throughout daily life. Canay Özden-Schilling argues that many of the economic formations in everyday life come from work cultures rarely suspected of doing economic work: cultures of science, technology, and engineering that often do not have a claim to economic theory or practice, yet nonetheless dictate forms of economic activity. Contributing to economic anthropology, science and technology studies, energy studies, and the anthropology of expertise, this book is a map of the everyday infrastructures of economy and energy into which we are plugged as denizens of a technological world. 606 $aExpertise$xEconomic aspects$zUnited States 606 $aMarkets$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aElectric utilities$zUnited States 610 $aderegulation. 610 $aeconomic anthropology. 610 $aeconomics. 610 $aelectric grid. 610 $aelectricity. 610 $aengineering. 610 $ainfrastructure. 610 $amarkets. 610 $arestructuring. 610 $athe United States. 615 0$aExpertise$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aMarkets$xSocial aspects 615 0$aElectric utilities 676 $a333.79320973 700 $aO?zden-Schilling$b Canay$01621632 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808941003321 996 $aThe current economy$93955038 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01960nam 2200445 450 001 9910828797803321 005 20230313203137.0 010 $a1-77091-131-6 035 $a(CKB)4100000008780871 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5840951 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5840951 035 $a(OCoLC)821261767 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000008780871 100 $a20190827h20132013 uy d 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe cave painter and the woodcutter /$fDon Hannah 210 1$aToronto :$cPlaywrights Canada Press,$d[2013] 210 4$dİ2013 215 $a1 online resource (xi, 40 pages, xi, 44 pages) $cillustrations 311 0 $a1-77091-129-4 330 $aDianne is a printmaker who derives her imagery from pre-history--Neanderthal teeth, the Jericho skulls, old bones. Too many people close to her have passed away, and her only son has rebelled by embracing a life of religious fundamentalism. The Cave Painter is a funny, moving one-woman show about being an artist and dealing with loss. In The Woodcutter, a scruffy, exhausted man is lost in the woods at nightfall with only a few sentimental objects in his pockets. Alone in a clearing, he unloads his thoughts to the surrounding wilderness, ranting and raging, unravelling a story of a troubled past and of the family he adores, eventually coming to terms with the impossible truth of what he's done. 606 $aCanadian drama 606 $aForests and forestry$vDrama 606 $aWomen printmakers$vDrama 615 0$aCanadian drama. 615 0$aForests and forestry 615 0$aWomen printmakers 676 $a769 700 $aHannah$b Don$f1951-$01709165 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828797803321 996 $aThe cave painter and the woodcutter$94098696 997 $aUNINA
