About the author

One of the most influential names in French anthropology who works as the Directeur d'études at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales. Best known as one of the earliest advocates of Marxism's incorporation into anthropology, he is also known for his field work among the Baruya in Papua New Guinea that spanned three decades from the 1960s to the 1980s.

Among the many honors he has received are the CNRS Gold Medal and the Alexander von Humboldt prize. His major works include The Making of Great Men, The Metamorphoses of Kinship, The Enigma of the Gift, In and Out of the West, and, more recently, Lévi-Strauss: A Critical Study of His Thought.

Reviews

[Roberto Yoed · Rating 1 out of 5]

Anthropology and Economy + Economy, Fetishism and Religion = Perspectives in Marxist Anthropology.

If I ever get to be an academic (which I highly doubt), and I start to recycle previous books, articles and papers, please end my misery.
