The Dangers of Pricing the Infinite — Crooked Timber
february 2012 by yayitsrob
Any system that reduces the world to numbers can only be held in place by weapons, whether these are swords and clubs, or nowadays ‘smart bombs’ from unmanned drones. It can also only operate by continually converting love into debt

Anthros & Econs: Crossing the chasm | Savage Minds
august 2011 by Vaguery
"In their recent book Economic Anthropology, Chris Hann and Keith Hart write about one of their main goals: “We hope to persuade economists with real world concerns to take an interest in what anthropologists have discovered about the human economy, and in the kinds of theories we have advanced to understand it” (Hann and Hart 2011:9). However, they also make this point quite clear: “There is not much hope for dialogue with those who define economics exclusively as the application of an individualistic logic of utility maximization to all domains of social life” (Hann and Hart 2011:9). Ultimately, they say, “The project of economics needs to be rescued from the economists” (Hann and Hart 2011:162)."
