[ANTH V3990] Primitive Communism: Gift and Fetish

Please keep in mind that this review is more than 5 years old.

Fascinating man, less than fascinating teacher. Don't count on talking much in his seminars since he rambles pretty much the whole time. Some people find his lectures interesting, but I found them not worth following. If the class were bigger, I'd take out a copy of the Spec. Oh, and did I mention the mandatory weekly recitation led by his TA?

Workload:

3-4 page paper every other week
