Why do reactions to "achievement" vary so profoundly? And how might an anthropological study of achievement and its consequences allow us to develop a more nuanced model of the motivated agency that operates in the social world? These questions lie at the heart of this volume. Drawing on research from Southeast Asia, Europe, the United States, and Latin America, this collection develops an innovative framework for explaining achievement's multiple effects-one which brings together cutting-edge theoretical insights into politics, psychology, ethics, material. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Achievement motivation|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85000493|xSocial aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00002758 650 0 Academic achievement|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85000296|xSocial aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00002758 650 0 Ethnology.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85045198 650 7 Achievement motivation|xSocial aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/795661 650 7 Achievement motivation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/795656 650 7 Academic achievement|xSocial aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/794967 650 7 Academic achievement.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 794949 650 7 Ethnology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/916106 655 0 Electronic books. 700 1 Long, Nicholas J.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2012038806|eeditor. 700 1 Moore, Henrietta L.,|d1957-|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n85025268|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tSocial life of achievement.|bFirst edition.|dNew York : Berghahn Books, 2013|z9781782382201 |w(DLC) 2013020237|w(OCoLC)857897635 830 0 Wyse series in social anthropology ;|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2013013989|vv. 2. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=665971|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
