Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Examining the significance of gift-giving in contemporary social life, this book highlights its relevance to key sociological theories from Durkheim and Weber to social constructionism. Based on extensive research, it reveals that women play a more prominent role as gift givers than men, illustrating how emotions and interests intertwine within the gift economy. The author connects these insights to broader themes of family, gender, and religion, providing a rich understanding of the rituals surrounding gift exchange in industrial western society.
