I'm updating the syllabus for my "Indigenous Economies and Empire" grad seminar. What books/articles (re: anywhere in the world and any period) would you include? #histodons @histodons @econhist

Guns, Germs, and Steel. Even though a lot of historians poopoo Diamond's main argument I'd add it because it speaks towards your subject.

@brian_gettler @histodons @econhist Wolf's “Europe and the People Without History” has a strikingly universal perspective on indigenous economies.

@aarbrk @histodons @econhist That's a good suggestion - thanks. In fact, this is the sort of thing I need since I often neglect "the classics" when putting together syllabi.

@brian_gettler @histodons @econhist I have had the opposite experience more often. Let's seek a balance!
