Abstract
Anthropologists explore how people create connections among themselves and to the larger world. Economists use deductive reasoning to explain much the same. Anthropologists expect serendipity; economists draw on calculation and design. Positioned between the two, economic anthropology can build on the idea of making do or using what is at hand to get something done, from raising crops, cooking a meal or repairing a home to producing a commodity or constructing a myth. Making do captures much of economic, social and conceptual life, as well as fieldwork practice.
