{"product_id":"scarcity-and-modernity","title":"Scarcity and Modernity","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally published in 1989. In this book Nicholas Xenos argues that the assumption that scarcity is a universal human condition is far from universal but rather a product of western influence. Informed by the work of Baudrillard, Bourdieu, Girard, and Sahlins, this historical narrative of scarcity incorporates interpretations of texts and practices from eighteenth-century London to contemporary New York. Lucid and elegant in style, Scarcity and Modernity will appear to those with interests in social and political thought and cultural criticism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44556459311342,"sku":"9781138081772","price":176.8,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9781138081772.jpg?v=1703547785","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/scarcity-and-modernity","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
