Cultures Merging: A Historical and Economic Critique of CulturePrinceton University Press, 10 jan 2009 - 328 pagina's "Economists agree about many things--contrary to popular opinion--but the majority agree about culture only in the sense that they no longer give it much thought." So begins the first chapter of Cultures Merging, in which Eric Jones--one of the world's leading economic historians--takes an eloquent, pointed, and personal look at the question of whether culture determines economics or is instead determined by it. |
