Bingo Capitalism

The Law and Political Economy of Everyday Gambling

Beschreibung

This work explores the legal and political history of bingo and how gender shapes, and is shaped by, gambling regulation. The author argues that bingo can provide new insight into three areas of political economy: more-than-capitalist' economies; the role of regulation in shaping those economies; and the gendered nature of that regulation.
