This volume explains how archaeologists can use Karl Marx and
Frederick Engels' mode of production concept to study long-term
patterns in human society. Modes of production describes how labor
is organized to create surplus which is then used for political
purposes. This type of analysis allows archaeologists to compare
and contrast peoples across distant continents and eras, from
hunter-gatherer groups to early agriculturalists to nation-states.
Presenting a range of different perspectives from researchers
working in a wide variety of societies and time periods, this
volume clearly demonstrates why historical materialism matters to
the field of archaeology.
