你如何将太阳能电灯卖给印度未通电的农村穷人?这篇《销售人类学》探讨了印度农村地区的直销工作,反映了跨国公司在全球长期贫困地区为消费品创造市场时产生的偏见、差异和排斥的形式。在印度奥里萨邦的高地,一家美国公司通过年轻男性销售代理网络销售太阳能电灯。该公司及其产品表达了对印度土著和低种姓社区的同情和接近、依恋和联系。然而,该公司的销售人员往往更关心保持各种形式的结构优势,他们的销售实践清楚地表明了基于种姓、阶级和性别的社会差异。与其将偏见视为新兴市场扩张和增长的外围效应,本文建议我们将其视为处于“金字塔底部”的市场的一种构成特征。
How do you sell a solar powered lamp to India's un-electrified, rural poor? This contribution to Anthropology for Sale explores the work of direct selling in rural India, reflecting on the forms of prejudice, difference and exclusion that are produced as multinational companies create markets for consumer goods in places of chronic global poverty. In the highlands of Orissa, India, a US company sells solar powered lights through a network of young male sales agents. The company and its products express empathy and proximity, attachment and connection to India's indigenous and low caste communities. Yet the company’s salesmen are often more concerned with maintaining forms of structural advantage and their sales practices articulate social differences based on caste, class and gender. Rather than see prejudice as a peripheral effect of expansion and growth in emerging markets this paper proposes that we see it as a constitutive feature of markets at the ‘bottom of the pyramid’.
