Product Information

City of Flowers is an ethnographic study of social and economic change in Costa Rica. Rather than investigate how macroeconomic forces bear down on workers and households, this book explores how individuals and households give meaning and shape to neoliberalism as it evolves over time. Drawing on twenty years of field work and 100 life histories of people living in one Costa Rican city, the book considers how individuals in four different class locations negotiate the economic changes going on around them. Author Susan E. Mannon argues that these responses are bound up in class, race, and gender aspirations and anxieties. City of Flowers is a volume in the ISSUES OF GLOBALIZATION: CASE STUDIES IN CONTEMPORARY ANTHROPOLOGY series, which examines the experiences of individual communities in our contemporary world. Each volume offers a brief and engaging exploration of a particular issue arising from globalization and its cultural, political, and economic effects on certain peoples or groups.

Reviews
"The rationale is very appealing. The author presents a very up-to-date subject matter (the impact of neoliberalism on everyday lives), linking this to a core theme in sociology, the "sociological imagination" according to C. Wright Mills. This is a basic concept introduced in almost anyintroductory social science class, which students should immediately be able to tie to the purpose of the book, and should also make the book's subject matter easy to tie back to other subjects covered in the classroom, for comparison and contrast...The author has an engaging and successful writingstyle. Each chapter starts off with story-telling and a glimpse into everyday life, before segueing into historical or theoretical details. I have found this story-first approach to be quite effective at getting students interested in a text in the past, and I expect this will make this book verysuccessful in the classroom." --Donald Anderson, Pima Community College
