Abstract
The article compares affective economies in the The Iliad and a corpus of drug runner ballads, focusing on the way they organize power through honor and glory, instead of money. I argue that affective economies go beyond the merely pecuniary, demonstrating how heroes in both Mexico and ancient Greece operate within economies built upon the notions of honor and glory.
