description: "Claude Meillassoux was a French neo-Marxist economic anthropologist and Africanist. A student of Georges Balandier, he did fieldwork among the Guro (Gouro) of Côte d'Ivoire; his thesis was published in 1964. In the 1970s he criticised Marshall Sahlins's use of the notion of \"domestic mode of production\". Meillassoux was throughout his life a politically committed critic of social injustice."
