The Market and the Oikos, Vol. II: The Peasant and the Nomad in History by Hans

Description: The Market and the Oikos, Vol. II by Hans Derks Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description The Market and the Oikos analyses from a global perspective the relationships between markets and households, families and states (Vol. I) to towns versus country sides, the focus of this second volume, proceeding from early history to contemporary China. Publisher Description Both Karl Marx and Max Weber inspired the writing of the two volumes of The Market and the Oikos. Weber coined a market versus oikos contradiction, in which oikos not only means house, household or family, but later also the state, while Marx saw a town versus country antagonism. Both scholars, however, explained insufficiently these most complicated concepts, let alone some mutual relationships. This second volume, The Market and the Oikos, Vol. II: The Peasant and the Nomad in History, continues the analysis of their antagonisms in their mutual relationships by providing the main practical characteristics in different historical, economic and sociological contexts, based on the writing of Max Weber as explained in Vol. I.While the first volume tried to characterize the relationships from economic and historical points of view, this second volume takes a historical/sociological angle. In both volumes, Hans Derks argument proceeds from early world historical examples to the present context of contemporary China, stressing the highly neglected role of nomads in history.
