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?
