A Handbook of Economic Anthropology BY James G Carrier

 This is a handbook. So, it is not something that lays out a coherent argument in an extended form. Rather, it is a set of chapters that cover economic- anthropological work on specific topics and in specific regions of the world. At the same time, however, these chapters all revolve around economic anthropology. It seems appropriate, then, to include in this introduction to the whole a presentation of what

I think economic anthropology is, if only because this thinking has shaped the organization of this handbook. Because this work is oriented to those unfamiliar with economic anthropology, and perhaps unfamiliar with anthropology, that presentation will cover some material that may seem common sense to those familiar with the sub-discipline or the discipline as a whole.

  

Those who are not novices may want to skip the opening section of this Introduction and go to the section titled ‘Approaching economic life’. Those wholly familiar with the field may want to skip to the final section of this Introduction, which explains the orientation of this work.
