Sahlins M. Ekonomika kamennogo veka

Author Sahlins M.
Title Ekonomika kamennogo veka
Description Marshall Sahlins’s Stone Age Economics is one of the most important works of modern anthropology and established its author as a leading figure in the field soon after its first publication in 1972. Through an ambitious interpretation of economic activity as a cultural phenomenon, Sahlins radically reconsidered traditional assumptions about hunters and gatherers, primitive society, and the so-called subsistence economy as a whole. It was here that he formulated the idea of the “original affluent society”, a concept that became closely associated with his work and shaped anthropological debates for decades, eventually extending far beyond academia. Half a century later, the provocative suggestion that prehistoric people may in some respects have lived better without the benefits of modern civilisation continues to invite new arguments, evidence, and criticism.
