Volume 40 of Research in Economic Anthropology explores current
issues in national and international policy, cost and debt,
business and capitalism, and economic theory and behavior
specifically pertaining to Brazil. The underlying theme running
through the collection is the steady encroachment of neoliberalism
into economic policy and practice, and the impact this has had on
everyday ways of life. In Part I, Raja Swamy explores post-disaster
relocation and livelihood issues in Nagapattinam, Tamil Nadu,
India, Anthony Rausch and Junichiro Koji investigate Japan's
Hometown Tax Donation Program, and Emma Gilberthorpe argues for
development plans that incorporate indigenous people's needs and
worldviews. In Part II, Vassily Pigounides empirically analyzes a
revenue management system originating in France, Irene Sabate
Muriel looks at the moral economy of mortgage lending and economic
reasoning during the housing bubble that rocked Spain when it burst
in 2007, and Mathias Krabbe explores debt among US college
students. In Part III, Ieva Snikersproge examines a French worker
cooperative ice cream venture, Andres Gramajo quantitively measures
the strength of capitalist thought among business owners in Latin
America, and Michal Stein and John Vertovec explore individual
action in the transitional economy in Havana's tourist-oriented
dance instruction world. In Part IV, Sidney Greenfield theorizes on
two coexisting but disjunct patterns of behavior in Brazil, which
give rise to tension, corruption allegations, and public scandals,
and Guilherme Falleiros analyzes the structural shifts between
global capitalism and indigenous ways of life in the same country.
