David Graeber

Forfatterbiografi

David Graeber (født David Rolfe Graeber i 1961, død 2020) var amerikansk antropolog og forfatter, kendt for at kombinere akademisk teori med radikal politisk tænkning. Han bevægede sig især inden for socialantropologi, økonomisk og politisk antropologi samt essays om hierarki, oprør og alternative muligheder i samtiden. I værker som Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology og Possibilities udforsker han, hvordan magt og værdier skabes og fastholdes, og hvordan mennesker kan forestille sig og organisere modstand. Possibilities er en essaysamling med fokus på hierarkier, revolution og begær, udgivet af AK Press, og den bygger videre på spørgsmål, han selv kredsede om i sin tidligere tænkning om anarchistisk antropologi og samfundsteori. Graeber fik i 2012 Bateson Prize for bogen Debt: The First 5,000 Years, og han vandt også Bread and Roses Award (radikal litteratur) for samme bog. Hans betydning for litteraturen ligger i hans gennemslag på tværs af faggrænser og i hans evne til at gøre komplekse analyser til offentligt relevante fortællinger om uretfærdighed, arbejde og politisk handlingsmulighed.
