Movements and Directions in the Study of Capitalism (MADCAP) is an interdisciplinary working group for the study of capitalism in all its global articulations and variations. MADCAP brings together scholars from History, Anthropology, Sociology, Politics, English, Media Studies, American Studies, Global Studies, Middle East & South Asian Languages & Cultures, and the Carter G. Woodson Institute for African-American and African Studies. We meet monthly to discuss the social, political, and historical dimensions of business, trade, finance, work, exchange and property systems, and economic life generally. We promote a global comparative and historical understanding of these issues by holding roundtables and workshops by faculty members and graduate students at UVa and beyond.
