Marketing death

By Cheris Shun-ching Chan

Subjects: Finance, china, Life insurance

Description: "Marketing Death is the first book to offer a penetrating sociological analysis of the emergence of a life insurance market outside of the Euro-American context. Drawing on rich ethnographic data, it documents the processes and micro-politics through which local cultures shape the way a market is formed and, hence, sheds light on the dynamics through which modern capitalist enterprises are diffused to regions with different cultural traditions."--Publisher's description.
