Among Skid Row and other foraging societies, both the Ju/’hoansi and the residents of Skid Row share the characteristics of generalized reciprocation, although some of the functions of the exchanges differ; and they also share similar environments in which they survive.…

Although each society is a part of a different environment, skid row being urban and Ju/’hoansi being rural, it…

That doesn't mean those throw overs are now to be thrown away. Possibly the best advice Wengie could pitch our way is taking an average razor and shaving your sweater. Shaving delicately will pull that lint right off smoothing the material out and renewing the bright colors giving the newly bought…

The resource curse explains this idea by proposing minerals and fuels in great abundance equal restriction in growth in the form of state intervention and significant cases of rent seeking and corruption. The general consensus on these cases is a negative one in terms of overall development and the long-term…
