Even a century after its publication, Malinowski's pioneering work remains essential for anthropology in a postcolonial age. This volume employs ethnographic studies from various parts of the world to provide a contextual understanding of the work, examining its development and influence from multiple perspectives. It critically explores the meaning of \"economy\" for Malinowski, tracing his intellectual journey from his upbringing in the Austro-Hungarian Empire to his groundbreaking fieldwork in Melanesia and his subsequent career in London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781805395218\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":46216321499386,"sku":"9781805395218","price":112.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1717934475042_book.jpg?v=1718106030","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/one-hundred-years-of-argonauts-malinowski-ethnography-and-economic-anthropology-9781805395218","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
