The ideals of self-sufficiency, however, continue to shape economic activity in a wide range of postsocialist settings. This volume’s six comparative studies of postsocialist villages in Eastern Europe and Asia illuminate the enduring importance of the house economy, which is based not on the market but on the order of the house. These formations show that economies depend not only on the macro institutions of markets and states but also on the micro institutions of families, communities, and house economies, often in an uneasy relationship.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmContributor: Stephen Gudeman (Edited by), Chris Hann (Edited by)Genre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, Business & FinanceBook Series: Max Planck Studies in Anthropology and EconomyAuthor: Stephen GudemanRelease Year: 2015 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
