In this new collection, author David Graeber revists questions raised in his popular book, Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology. Employing an unpretentious style to convey complex ideas, these twelve essays cover a lot of ground: the origins of capitalism; the history of European table manners; love potions and gender in rural Madagascar; the phenomenology of giant puppets at street protests and much much more. But they are linked by a clear purpose: to explore the nature of social power and the forms that resistance to it have taken - or might take in the future.
