Contested Commodities

Margaret Jane Radin


Contested Commodities Margaret Jane Radin Not only are there willing buyers for body parts or babies, Margaret Radin observes, but some desperately poor people would be willing sellers, while better-off people find such trades abhorrent. Radin argues that such areas of contested commodification reflect a persistent dilemma in liberal society: we value freedom of choice and simultaneously believe that choices should be restricted to protect the integrity of what it means to be a person. She views this tension as the result of underlying social and economic inequality, which need not reflect an irreconcilable conflict in the premises of liberal democracy. As a philosophical pragmatist, Radin presents a conception of incomplete commodification, in which some contested things can be bought and sold,but only under carefully regulated circumstances. Such a regulatory regime both symbolizes the importance of nonmarket value to personhood and aspires to ameliorate the underlying conditions of inequality.

Tsukiji: The Fish Market at the Center of the World (California Studies in Food and Culture, 11)

Theodore C. Bestor


Tsukiji: The Fish Market at the Center of the World (California Studies in Food and Culture, 11) Theodore C. Bestor Located only blocks from Tokyo's glittering Ginza, Tsukiji--the world's largest marketplace for seafood--is a prominent landmark, well known but little understood by most Tokyoites: a supplier for countless fishmongers and sushi chefs, and a popular and fascinating destination for foreign tourists. Early every morning, the worlds of hi-tech and pre-tech trade noisily converge as tens of thousands of tons of seafood from every ocean of the world quickly change hands in Tsukiji's auctions and in the marketplace's hundreds of tiny stalls. In this absorbing firsthand study, Theodore C. Bestor--who has spent a dozen years doing fieldwork at fish markets and fishing ports in Japan, North America, Korea, and Europe--explains the complex social institutions thatorganize Tsukiji's auctions and the supply lines leading to and from them and illuminates trends of Japan's economic growth, changes in distribution and consumption, and the increasing globalization of the seafood trade.

Community Trade and Networks: Southern Fujian Province from the Third to the Thirteenth Century (Cambridge Studies in Chinese History, Literature and Institutions)

Hugh R. Clark


Community Trade and Networks: Southern Fujian Province from the Third to the Thirteenth Century (Cambridge Studies in Chinese History, Literature and Institutions) Hugh R. Clark The study traces the economic and demographic history of a corner of China's southeast coast from the third to the thirteenth centuries, looking at the relationship between changes in the agrarian and urban economies of the area and their connections to the expanding role of domestic and foreign trade. It provides a previously unexplored perspective on the role of commercialized production and trade in a regional economy in the premodern era and demonstrates that trade was able to drive change in a premodern economy in a way that has not generally been recognized. книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин The study traces the economic and demographic history of a corner of China's southeast coast from the third to the thirteenth centuries, looking at the relationship between changes in the agrarian and urban economies of the area and their connections to the expanding role of domestic and foreign trade.

Architects of the Information Society: Thirty-Five Years of the Laboratory for Computer Science at MIT

Simson L. Garfinkel, Hal Abelson


Architects of the Information Society: Thirty-Five Years of the Laboratory for Computer Science at MIT Simson L. Garfinkel, Hal Abelson The Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Laboratory for Computer Science (LCS) has been responsible for some of the most significant technological achievements of the past few decades. Much of the hardware and software driving the information revolution has been, and continues to be, created at LCS. Anyone who sends and receives email, communicates with colleagues through a LAN, surfs the Web, or makes decisions using a spreadsheet is benefiting from the creativity of LCS members. LCS is an interdepartmental laboratory that brings together faculty, researchers, and students in a broad program of study, research, and experimentation. Their principal goal is to pursue innovations in information technology that will improve people's lives. LCS members have been instrumental in the development of ARPAnet, the Internet, the Web, Ethernet, time-shared computers, UNIX, RSA encryption, the X Windows system, NuBus, and many other technologies.
