ANTH 6916: Development and Culture–Key Concepts
15 April 2015
Available at http://anthro.rschram.org/6916/6
Key questions for this week's discussion
- What is the nature of modernity? How would each of the key thinkers we have encountered define it?
- Are people like the Luo modern or not? In what sense? Why?
- Is modernity always a loss? Is everything dissolved by the 'market mentality' described by Polanyi?
- What makes something valuable for Luo? Is there one value, like utility or pleasure, or many values, e.g. moral, as well as material, or social as well as individual?
