The gift economy and the anthropologists
The post-capitalist gift economy is explained and proposed in my book 'System Change for a Liveable Future' (Mayfly 2025). Here I am looking at an appendix in that book. I am considering what the anthropologists have to say about non-market economies in pre-class societies. How did gifts function as a means of exchange in these communities? What lessons can we draw from this history?
