This new edition of Historical Archaeologies of Capitalism shows
where the study of capitalism leads archaeologists, scholars and
activists. Essays cover a range of geographic, colonial and racist
contexts around the Atlantic basin: Latin America and the
Caribbean, North America, the North Atlantic, Europe and Africa.
Here historical archaeologists use current capitalist theory to
show the results of creating social classes, employing racism and
beginning and expanding the global processes of resource
exploitation. Scholars in this volume also do not avoid the present
condition of people, discussing the lasting effects of capitalism's
methods, resistance to them, their archaeology and their point to
us now. Chapters interpret capitalism in the past, the processes
that make capitalist expansion possible, and the worldwide sale and
reduction of people. Authors discuss how to record and interpret
these. This book continues a global historical archaeology, one
that is engaged with other disciplines, peoples and suppressed
political and economic histories. Authors in this volume describe
how new identities are created, reshaped and made to appear
natural. Chapters in this second edition also continue to address
why historical archaeologists study capitalism and the relevance of
this work, expanding on one of the important contributions of
historical archaeologies of capitalism: critical archaeology.
