Oikos and Market: Explorations in Self-Sufficiency after Socialism - Max Planck Studies in Anthropology and Economy
This volume’s six comparative investigations of postsocialist communities illuminate the universal significance of Aristotle’s vision of the oikos, an economy based on the order of the house. These postsocialist configurations show that economies depend on macro institutions of markets and states, and also on the micro institutions of families, communities, and house economies.
