Beads, Bodies, And Trash: Public Sex, Global Labor, And The Disposability Of Mardi Gras (Innovative Ethnographies)

Beads, Bodies, and Trash merges cultural sociology with a commodity chain analysis by following Mardi Gras beads to their origins. Beginning with Bourbon Street of New Orleans, this book moves to the grim factories in the tax-free economic zone of rural Fuzhou, China. Beads, Bodies, and Trash is a work of sensory ethnography appropriate for courses in gender and sexuality; qualitative or ethnographic research methods; deviance, crime, and social control; social movements; globalization; and Social Problems.
