    Potlatch: A Comedy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 416min
    Have you ever wondered why life seems so complicated, so exhausting, so fattening, and yet so pointless and idiotic? It's all part of the Potlatch. To Alice Coggins, the 24-year-old daughter of a South Philadelphia scam artist, everything looks like a racket: endless serf-like internships, student loans that can never be repaid, and high-minded charities run by swindlers for the benefit of rich donors. Things only get worse when she meets Andrew Ogleby, a scion of blue-bloods who is engaged to a bulimic pet-food heiress he can't bring himself to marry. As their Cinderella romance unfolds, Alice and Andrew must battle their families, the mob, and most of all the ubiquitous "Potlatch": a vast conspiracy of conspicuous waste directed by the powers that be to keep the populace - and especially the young people - from even thinking about doing anything useful.  ungekürzt.

    In 1935, a nine-year-old boy's family held a forbidden Potlatch in faraway Kingcome Inlet. Watl'kina slipped from his bed to bear witness. In the Big House masked figures danced by firelight to the beat of the drum. And there, he saw a figure he knew. Aboriginal elder Alfred Scow and award-winning author Andrea Spalding collaborate to tell the story, to tell the secret of the dance. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Christian Down.

    Discovery Passages
    Discovery Passages ist eine dramatische Symphonie vieler Stimmen, die die politischen, kommerziellen, intellektuellen und kulturellen Subtexte des Verbots der Sprache der Ureinwohner, des Potlatch-Verbots und der Konfiszierung und des Verkaufs ihrer Artefakte aufdeckt und zeigt, wie diese Aktionen das Leben sowohl der indigenen Bevölkerung als auch der nicht-indianischen Bewohner der Region beeinflussten.Für das Volk des Autors, die Kwakwaka'wakw, bedeutete diese Verschiebung von Sprache und Artefakten einen tiefgreifenden kulturellen Bruch. Mit atemberaubender Virtuosität macht sich Garry Thomas Morse auf den Weg, die fremd angeeignete oder gestohlene und verstreute Welt seines angestammten Volkes zurückzugewinnen.

    Toward an Anthropological Theory of Value (eBook, PDF)
    Now a widely cited classic, this innovative book is the first comprehensive synthesis of economic, political, and cultural theories of value. David Graeber reexamines a century of anthropological thought about value and exchange, in large measure to find a way out of ongoing quandaries in current social theory, which have become critical at the present moment of ideological collapse in the face of Neoliberalism. Rooted in an engaged, dynamic realism, Graeber argues that projects of cultural comparison are in a sense necessarily revolutionary projects: He attempts to synthesize the best insights of Karl Marx and Marcel Mauss, arguing that these figures represent two extreme, but ultimately complementary, possibilities in the shape such a project might take. Graeber breathes new life into the classic anthropological texts on exchange, value, and economy. He rethinks the cases of Iroquois wampum, Pacific kula exchanges, and the Kwakiutl potlatch within the flow of world historical processes, and recasts value as a model of human meaning-making, which far exceeds rationalist/reductive economist paradigms.
