Scarcity and Modernity Xenos Nicholas
Originally published in 1989. Informed by the work of Baudrillard, Bourdieu, Girard, and Sahlins, this historical narrative of scarcity incorporates interpretations of texts and practices from eighteenth-century London to contemporary New York. In this book Nicholas Xenos argues that the assumption that scarcity is a universal human condition is far from universal but rather a product of western influence.
Lucid and elegant in style, Scarcity and Modernity will appear to those with interests in social and political thought and cultural criticism.
