used books,books, The dominance of neo-classical economics within organizations like IMF, the World Bank and even the UN is currently subject to critique from a wide range of perspectives, including the sociology and anthropology of economy. But disciplinary boundaries hamper the emergence of new theory and of viable alternatives to the regime of neo-classical economics. In contrast, Peopled Economies contributes to a reassessment of issues like poverty, development, and the power of globalization by offering a series of transdisciplinary conversations on economic life, and by asking key questions about the relation between culture and economy. It centres on the writings of one of the world leading economic anthropologists, Stephen Gudeman, who ends the book with a response to his critics and an extension of his work.
