1 TOPICS IN ANTHROPOLOGY: MONEY AND FINANCE ANTH 5322, Fall 2015 Lecture: Tuesday 15:30-17:15, NAH 12 Tutorial: Tuesday 17:30-18:15, NAH 12 Teacher: Dr. Ho Cheuk-Yuet Tutor: Ms. Teresa Lin This course aims to introduce students to an anthropological understanding of money and finance, in relations to the dyads of state and market, credit and debt, risk and uncertainty, rationality and morality. We will trace the history of money and credit and understand their associations with societal changes. We will examine whether or not capital has become a profound determinant of the singularity of value and how the global financial crisis has been engendered by the cultural practices of the market and professional financiers. Conventionally, anthropological studies of the economic practices of everyday life have tended to focus on the realms of production, exchange, and consumption. The global financial market s recent two systemic collapses in the late 1990s and 2000s, however, demonstrated critically that investments and capital flows have constituted an essential, even dominant part of economic activities in the contemporary era of financial capitalism. Some recent ethnographic studies also revealed how financial assets and the practice of financial professionals have intricately overwhelmed everybody s ordinary lives both those near and far from the heartland of financial operations. Hence, the financial system is all too very real and concrete to warrant our serious inquiry, as it increasingly underwrites the terms of material wealth and human suffering, yet inseparable from the broader social relationality and cultural configurations. Course Objectives 1)Gain an understanding of the historical and cultural engendering of money and financialization. 2)Comprehend the intricateness and mundaneness of financial practices by way of ethnographic insights. 3)Prepare oneself for the next financial crisis (!) epistemologically and mentally. 1
