The EASA Anthropology of Economy network held a virtual event on June 30 and July 1 2021 to showcase, network, and to share experiences, themes, and knowledge in and about economic anthropology. The global meeting for economic anthropology was an attempt to make visible the breadth and depth of research in the sub-discipline today. The meetings were an exploration. Those asked to speak provided lead-ins into regional knowledges and contemporary themes, intended to spark conversation amongst the audience in a spirit of exploring, engaging, and sharing.
Thanks to the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of St. Gallen, and the EASA for supporting the event.
