all right so we remember now Jennifer Lopez saying to us my love don't cost a thing or as Beatles  

00:00:13.600 --> 00:00:25.300
put it You Can't Buy Me Love we could put this in terms known better to economic anthropology and 

00:00:25.300 --> 00:00:31.200
now moving onwards to Fredrik Barth and his texts 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:00:31.200 --> 00:00:34.850
and we would say that there seems to be a sphere 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (HØY)

00:00:34.850 --> 00:00:43.800
of human interaction where cash does not serve as a medium of exchange at the main of human 

00:00:43.800 --> 00:00:49.400
interaction where money doesn't get you anywhere. Remember again the

00:00:49.500 --> 00:00:56.400
clip from The Godfather how much shall I pay you says Bonasera to The Godfather Vito 

00:00:56.400 --> 00:01:05.700
Corleone and he says in a sense no way there's nothing you can pay me in terms of money your money is 

00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:13.900
no good here he says to Bonasera we're doing gift exchange not commodity exchanged remember. Barth 

00:01:14.300 --> 00:01:19.300
adds to our understanding of economic

00:01:19.300 --> 00:01:20.700
life 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (HØY)

00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:29.700
by introducing for us and the syllabus the concept of an economic sphere 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (HØY)

00:01:29.700 --> 00:01:39.400
okay so you can add this to the list of your concepts if you have one of those lists we're getting a 

00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:47.300
pretty rich tool kit here, you know we talked about this before we talked about moral economy now 

00:01:47.300 --> 00:01:52.800
we have economic spheres it's another tool kit that you can 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (HØY)

00:01:52.800 --> 00:02:02.300
you can use in order to understand something break open some kind of a pattern produce an 

00:02:02.300 --> 00:02:03.900
insight. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 76% (HØY)

00:02:04.100 --> 00:02:15.300
so what is Barths text about? well you can read yourselves I think even though it's a very kind of a 

00:02:15.300 --> 00:02:20.100
crisp old school text 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (HØY)

00:02:20.100 --> 00:02:27.750
it is also very straightforward there's not much mumbo jumbo let's say 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (HØY)

00:02:27.750 --> 00:02:36.500
Barth he studied the mountainous food region in southern Sudan here it is 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 75% (MEDIUM)

00:02:36.700 --> 00:02:47.900
and basically what he is describing is and make note of this, this is a mixed subsistence and cash 

00:02:47.900 --> 00:03:00.150
economy that is undergoing change. So something between a pure subsistence peasant lifestyle as we 

00:03:00.150 --> 00:03:06.300
read about for example in the text James Scott 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 88% (HØY)

00:03:06.300 --> 00:03:14.750
but neither is it a kind of a fully-fledged to the extent that you can use that term a fully-fledged 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:03:14.750 --> 00:03:17.300
market economy 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:03:17.600 --> 00:03:23.000
it's a mixed subsistence and cash economy undergoing social change 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (HØY)

00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:35.399
so Barth in his characteristic way lays out the elements of food economy in very clear terms he says 

00:03:35.399 --> 00:03:41.900
and notice here the common ground with the other text on the syllabus there are basic institutions 

00:03:41.900 --> 00:03:45.100
in food culture from which 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:03:45.100 --> 00:03:48.700
forms in the economy may be derived 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (HØY)

00:03:48.700 --> 00:03:58.100
that has to do with the basic unit of production and consumption size and composition of the 

00:03:58.100 --> 00:03:59.400
households 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (HØY)

00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:04.550
forms of ownership of land how labor is organised 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:04:04.550 --> 00:04:13.800
as well as weekly markets where cash circulates and is used as a medium of exchange so let's go 

00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:17.300
through these step by step. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (HØY)

00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:26.500
Now first the unit the kind of the basic unit of the food economy what is the unit of production 

00:04:26.500 --> 00:04:28.400
and consumption here 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 73% (MEDIUM)

00:04:28.500 --> 00:04:40.600
Barth suggested the basic cultural unit of management of economic affairs is in this society the 

00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:41.900
individual 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 80% (HØY)

00:04:41.900 --> 00:04:48.700
not a household, so notice you can say that in a sense he has a 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (HØY)

00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:59.000
a model at the heart of his analysis or an expectation at the heart of 

00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:01.600
his analysis 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (HØY)

00:05:01.700 --> 00:05:10.400
that is the basis of his analysis is an individual who else on the syllabus has this as a starting 

00:05:10.400 --> 00:05:20.900
point? despite vast differences between Barth and most examples you would find a neoclassical 

00:05:20.900 --> 00:05:24.600
economics there is a link here 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (HØY)

00:05:24.900 --> 00:05:33.200
but Barth would say this is just me describing what things are like it is actually the fact that 

00:05:33.200 --> 00:05:43.800
individuals functions as the key economic unit in society there are reciprocal obligations 

00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:48.750
between kin and between husbands and wives 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:05:48.750 --> 00:05:53.250
but each individual works on each 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (HØY)

00:05:53.250 --> 00:06:03.600
their own process of land and is he says the basic economic unit for consumption and 

00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.200
production. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:06:06.300 --> 00:06:21.500
Okay we already mentioned second element here, land. Barth describes land as being held by nominally patrilineal

00:06:21.500 --> 00:06:30.000
Loosely structured descent groups. However, individuals again are given use rights 

00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:33.549
over particular pieces of land until they abandon it.  

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (HØY)

00:06:33.549 --> 00:06:44.799
There is no rent in the traditional sense that we know it of land is not a fully-fledged 

00:06:44.799 --> 00:06:54.950
commodity. There are ways in which people who get to use a piece of land is supposed to give 

00:06:54.950 --> 00:07:00.300
certain one pot of beer or whatever to the title holder 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (HØY)

00:07:01.900 --> 00:07:12.250
That is organised through the descent group but there is no rent, there's no way to purchase 

00:07:12.250 --> 00:07:21.549
land at least not on a large scale not yet, he describe these changes but traditionally 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 73% (MEDIUM)

00:07:21.549 --> 00:07:30.600
land is transferred and allocated according to need rather than inheritance. So land is rather 

00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:38.600
plentiful in Fur society it's not a commodity yet and you get to use 

00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:46.000
land based on your need, so basically everyone can have access and right to land. These are the second 

00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:47.550
element of his 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 84% (HØY)

00:07:47.550 --> 00:07:50.800
analysis labor 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (HØY)

00:07:52.700 --> 00:08:01.200
remember JLo and the Beatles singing about how you Can't Buy Me Love 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 66% (MEDIUM)

00:08:02.100 --> 00:08:10.400
in Fur society it is shameful to buy or to sell labor 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:19.700
there's a value here again values there's a value of honour and shame as an example of of 

00:08:19.700 --> 00:08:25.000
an ethnographic take on the question of value. Their customary prohibitions on things that can and 

00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:29.700
cannot be exchanged, money can't buy you labor 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (HØY)

00:08:31.299 --> 00:08:37.299
it's considered shameful to work for wages. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (HØY)

00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:48.000
So how do you get people to work? you know you can't resolve all your troubles all your projects 

00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:58.000
necessarily individually how do you work collectively in this society? well you throw a party 

00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:07.000
basically but primarily to you get people to build or to fix your house 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 76% (HØY)

00:09:08.700 --> 00:09:17.500
or partly also to work on the land and cultivate the land by inviting them to beer parties 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (HØY)

00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:26.000
and notice how these parties are organized, you can think of it in terms of the 

00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:35.900
Norwegian 'dugnad' you invite people and they are often your kin or friends or perhaps 

00:09:35.900 --> 00:09:43.300
neighbours and there's an expectation that you provide something for them but it's not a payment but 

00:09:43.300 --> 00:09:45.650
you invite them and you give them beer 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (HØY)

00:09:45.650 --> 00:09:54.900
and the party aspect of the event makes it so that the organiser of the the labour party cannot 

00:09:54.900 --> 00:10:05.200
really coordinate the labor efficiency, people you can imagine get drunk or work well in the 

00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:08.700
beginning and not so well as things go on 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (HØY)

00:10:08.700 --> 00:10:16.100
and crucially there's no money exchanging hands in this organization of labor you cannot accumulate 

00:10:16.100 --> 00:10:22.700
cash by working more because there's there no salaries and you cannot accumulate wealth by paying 

00:10:22.700 --> 00:10:30.500
more people to work for you either, because you only have access to labor through 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:10:31.400 --> 00:10:36.600
exchanging it with beer 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:39.200
which has certain limits 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (HØY)

00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:47.500
beer is what you give to people according to a logic that it has more to do with gift exchange in a 

00:10:47.500 --> 00:10:56.500
sense than being a straight-up payment it is reciprocal matter, you mobilize people 

00:10:56.500 --> 00:11:05.000
to go to your beer party for work party and then they expect you to come to theirs. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:14.850
it has both an element of market exchange there is an exchange here but also a kind of a Kula 

00:11:14.850 --> 00:11:29.700
element a gift logicm its reciprocal ties people in to long-term relationships and leads to 

00:11:29.700 --> 00:11:31.750
expectations 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:11:31.750 --> 00:11:35.850
of people reciprocating. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:11:35.850 --> 00:11:44.600
Just like as when you invite a friend over to help you with let's say moving from one apartment to 

00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:52.900
the next there's an expectation that perhaps you provide some pizza or you buy a few beers and few 

00:11:52.900 --> 00:12:00.300
months later or even years later at way if you hear that of that person who is moving house you feel 

00:12:00.300 --> 00:12:06.100
the spirit of the gift you feel the obligation to say hey I heard 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:12:06.100 --> 00:12:12.400
heard you're moving it's time for me to help you or you would you'd feel certain calling so there is 

00:12:12.400 --> 00:12:20.300
a reciprocal gift logic to this way of organising labor.

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:12:20.300 --> 00:12:29.000
Fourth there is cash in circulation in this economy, Barth describes a well-organized system of 

00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:39.150
marketplaces where you use mone, all these Darfur communities are within walking distance of 

00:12:39.150 --> 00:12:45.900
markets where hundreds attend daily you have middlemen trading for profit and this is an accepted 

00:12:45.900 --> 00:12:47.200
part of 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (HØY)

00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:49.050
human life. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:12:49.050 --> 00:12:58.700
In this market sphere you sell your agricultural products but not importantly not beer because that 

00:12:58.700 --> 00:13:09.200
is frowned upon considered something that is supposed to be outside the market sphere it's more of a 

00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:17.100
gift to give to the participants of your labour party but you sell textiles you sell tools, you buy

00:13:17.100 --> 00:13:19.700
tools goats livestock 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (HØY)

00:13:19.700 --> 00:13:23.349
you can grow fruit to sell on a market 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 85% (HØY)

00:13:23.349 --> 00:13:28.700
you cannot buy labor on a market with money. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (HØY)

00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:41.250
In conclusion you have here partly a cash economy but not a wage labor market, result is he describes 

00:13:41.250 --> 00:13:51.400
in this is a much more complex model in the paper itself it includes pilgrimage to the Mecca and so 

00:13:51.400 --> 00:13:57.900
on but just to simplify for our purposes here, you have a description of two separate economic 

00:13:57.900 --> 00:13:58.849
spheres. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 77% (HØY)

00:13:58.849 --> 00:14:02.450
There is the beer, labor, wives nexus 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (HØY)

00:14:02.450 --> 00:14:15.000
where you mobilise labor by giving people beer that your wife brewed and this you used to build 

00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:16.500
houses 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (HØY)

00:14:16.500 --> 00:14:25.700
and to get things done on your land and then you have the market sphere where you trade agricultural 

00:14:25.700 --> 00:14:27.150
products 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:14:27.150 --> 00:14:29.700
fruit 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (HØY)

00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:33.800
but not labor as a commodity 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (HØY)

00:14:34.500 --> 00:14:44.700
textiles but but there's no way of accessing labor through the market so there's a 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (HØY)

00:14:45.700 --> 00:14:54.900
distinction here, these are two economic spheres and by the way this term of economic spheres is 

00:14:54.900 --> 00:15:04.100
something that Barth draws up and very much in dialogue with Bohannan or his text with the Til  

00:15:04.100 --> 00:15:06.349
in Nigeria 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 75% (MEDIUM)

00:15:06.349 --> 00:15:12.000
if someone remembers that, but that is the kind of debates and you'll read more about this in the 

00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:21.100
Heart and Hann textbook but that is kind of the debate that was going on in anthropology in the  

00:15:21.100 --> 00:15:30.400
sixties and which is still I think quite helpful what are the implications of this system. Well we 

00:15:30.400 --> 00:15:36.450
have here description of multiple sources of value 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (HØY)

00:15:36.450 --> 00:15:48.950
okay land and labor markets cash and Barth is taking in this total social setting 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (HØY)

00:15:48.950 --> 00:15:51.950
in order to understand what value is 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (HØY)

00:15:51.950 --> 00:16:03.600
geography ecology institutions of Fur culture that is the first thing to notice and secondly this 

00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:12.600
is a system that where resultingly it is hard to accumulate wealth riches because they are certain 

00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:19.550
checks on wealth accumulation. The soil that you grow on your own 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 81% (HØY)

00:16:19.550 --> 00:16:25.150
you exchange beer for labor power you get people to work on it you get people to build their house 

00:16:25.150 --> 00:16:33.300
to help you fix things, and you can even grow your own food and 

00:16:33.300 --> 00:16:38.750
have your wife make beer so that people can come and work for you 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:16:38.750 --> 00:16:46.800
and you can even use this labor power to grow crops that you can sell in the market but with the 

00:16:46.800 --> 00:16:50.450
money that you earn you can't buy more labor power 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (HØY)

00:16:50.450 --> 00:16:57.600
so money is not worth all that much, because you cannot use it to buy labor power. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:16:57.800 --> 00:17:05.300
But then, Barth is always known 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:17:05.300 --> 00:17:12.650
for his interest in describing changes social change systemic changes. This is one of Barth's 

00:17:12.650 --> 00:17:18.599
trademarks, he describes 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 86% (HØY)

00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:30.300
the way some people innovate and find ways to take advantage to convert value between these spheres 

00:17:30.300 --> 00:17:38.650
ways that the model is put under pressure people find ways of converting value between these spheres, 

00:17:38.650 --> 00:17:44.450
and this you notice is unlike the situation that is described by James Scott 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:17:44.450 --> 00:17:51.300
with his fear of risks attached to innovation 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 75% (MEDIUM)

00:17:52.700 --> 00:18:07.100
He sees two kind of brewing elements of social change here, first is Orchard 

00:18:07.100 --> 00:18:14.400
development tree crops are when people get 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:24.100
rights to use a land they can start planting trees and create orchards tree crops are more 

00:18:24.100 --> 00:18:26.550
suitable for cash cropping 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:18:26.550 --> 00:18:37.500
and you grow trees on your land and you can do that on a larger scale and make and convert that 

00:18:37.500 --> 00:18:48.550
into profit on the market because you can sell agricultural products on the market and with the 

00:18:48.550 --> 00:18:55.950
development of these orchards they stay on the land long, new crops they live longer and 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (HØY)

00:18:55.950 --> 00:19:00.150
they kind of tend to make the land useless to others. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 91% (HØY)

00:19:00.150 --> 00:19:11.100
So what he sees here is that there's an emergence of landscape involving what he calls alienating 

00:19:11.100 --> 00:19:19.100
rights held in trust so Barth kind of takes a few steps into the direction where he says that there 

00:19:19.100 --> 00:19:29.699
are we have an emerging market for land as a result of the shift towards planting long 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 70% (MEDIUM)

00:19:29.699 --> 00:19:42.200
long living trees and finding ways to use orchards to produce crops that for exchange rather than 

00:19:42.200 --> 00:19:50.500
just for your own use again we did the distinction that we talked about earlier. There's a production 

00:19:50.500 --> 00:19:52.350
for exchange 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 73% (MEDIUM)

00:19:52.350 --> 00:20:01.350
rather than a production for use that leads to pressure on land rights as use rights 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 78% (HØY)

00:20:01.350 --> 00:20:08.800
Land is on the verge perhaps of becoming a commodity of the becoming private property. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 89% (HØY)

00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:16.500
So they're shifting attitudes towards land as a result of this development. Second

00:20:16.500 --> 00:20:28.150
we call this when I studied SOSANT1300 we called this the Tomato Man piece

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (HØY)

00:20:28.150 --> 00:20:36.500
it's just a few paragraphs towards the end of the text where Barth describes what he calls 

00:20:36.500 --> 00:20:46.600
an entrepreneur, an entrepreneur is a person who who finds a way to convert between economic spheres 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (HØY)

00:20:46.600 --> 00:20:55.600
and the Tomato Man is an Arab trader who comes and settles on the land and he

00:20:55.600 --> 00:21:07.200
gets land use rights 

00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:14.200
Just asking for it so he comes from far away he carries lots of cheap produce with which he can 

00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:16.700
make beer he's bought 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 82% (HØY)

00:21:16.700 --> 00:21:23.700
is it millet I think it's called or whatever you use to produce beer he's bought that in the 

00:21:23.700 --> 00:21:32.700
lowlands for very cheap and he starts to do something genius, he invites people to these 

00:21:32.700 --> 00:21:44.400
lavish beer parties he makes beer with his wife in order to get people to work 

00:21:44.400 --> 00:21:45.900
for him 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (HØY)

00:21:47.000 --> 00:21:56.100
but he invites people to plow the soil for him, to work the soil for him and produce tomatoes 

00:21:56.100 --> 00:22:03.800
not built his house and he increases his tomato production incredibly, he exploits the beer 

00:22:03.800 --> 00:22:10.300
reciprocal system to increase the production 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (HØY)

00:22:10.300 --> 00:22:19.800
his agricultural production of tomatoes. So he finds a way to convert the beer mobilized 

00:22:19.800 --> 00:22:26.600
labor into market for profit which he then can use to buy more wheat or millet or whatever it is that 

00:22:26.600 --> 00:22:28.750
you use to make beer 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (HØY)

00:22:28.750 --> 00:22:36.100
so he comes with certain agricultural products that he uses to create a labor force 

00:22:36.100 --> 00:22:37.450
basically 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:22:37.450 --> 00:22:45.050
that he uses to produce tomatoes that he then goes to the markets and sell.  

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 87% (HØY)

00:22:45.050 --> 00:22:51.800
So he's finding a way to convert between these two spheres.

All right go into this text and have a look at it yourself and try to again compare and use it to 

00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:16.900
compare and to see some of the patterns and also think critically about the foundation's the 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 79% (HØY)

00:23:16.900 --> 00:23:25.700
models that Barth is working with here, his expectation of what a human being is what economic 

00:23:25.700 --> 00:23:33.900
motivation is there's ample room for getting inspired but also perhaps for critiquing this 

00:23:33.900 --> 00:23:45.300
text that is for you to do in the seminars, and in your study groups. But notice the similarity here 

00:23:45.300 --> 00:23:46.750
with this text and 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 90% (HØY)

00:23:46.750 --> 00:23:51.600
and indeed all the ethnographic text so far, they share something. 

NOTE
Treffsikkerhet: 83% (HØY)

00:23:51.600 --> 00:24:00.800
Namely these three elements that we talked about earlier. Researchers find the keys to explanation of 

00:24:00.800 --> 00:24:02.199
the pattern

at the level of a given place with a certain Dynamic a local context and you need to understand the 

00:24:11.250 --> 00:24:17.600
context of say the trobriand islands in order to understand the Kula trade you need to understand 

00:24:17.600 --> 00:24:24.500
The geology the ecology the cultural institutions of the food, in order to understand how value

circulates and functions within their economic system, 

NOTE

00:24:29.400 --> 00:24:37.200
and as we'll see in the next few minutes in the next recording anthropologists can put any place to 

00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:44.400
this test of ethnography, can put even a place like a modern stock market in London and 

00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:55.350
Chicago to the same test. studying stockbroking as much as we would study say the trobriand islands

or the mixed subsistence and cash economy in southern Sudan.
