	The Problem of the Fetish William Pietz University of Chicago Press, 2022 Library of Congress GN472.P54 2022 \| Dewey Decimal 202.1 A groundbreaking account of the origins and history of the idea of fetishism.

Tracing the idea of the fetish from its origins in the Portuguese colonization of West Africa to its place in Enlightenment thought and beyond, Pietz reveals the violent emergence of a foundational concept for modern theories of value, belief, desire, and difference.
