Through this research I developed a database from the MPM's digital inventory, handwritten catalogs, accession records, and …

Anthropology Student Scholarship

The concept of the circular economy has taken off, gaining momentum along with concerns about resource depletion, waste, and the impending ‘end of cheap nature’ (Moore 2014).
