ANTB66H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 11: Moral Economy, Lightning, Hands Clean
Document Summary
Tom"s backpack: the father"s name was ishmail, father of church is abraham and his first son was ishmail, first son of abraham. Ishmail tells tom is not about his religion: at the end, the ocean pounding against the rocks. Pilgrimage as industry: busses, markets, guiding and the political and moral economy of the pilgrimage. Pilgrims arrive at jeddah and they"re immediately put on a bus to travel to medina, saudi. Hammoudi talks a lot about first seeing the lights at medina. Hammoudi writes: i had been delivered to the pilgrimage market, thrown on the road to save the expense of a night in jeddah, following a capitalist law bridled by the limits set in. God"s book as the wahhabis interpret it: like the other nationalities, we were set apart by our flag find the rest of the sentence. Hammoudi and other anthropologists are critical to the fundamentalists.
