Reinventing and Reinvesting in the Local for Our Common Good: Selected Papers from the Annual Meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society, Huntington, West Virginia, April, 2016
Editat de Brian A. Hoeyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 mar 2020
The volume includes examples of citizen or student involvement in ethnographic research: Residents of a rural community were both subjects and collaborators on a study of cultural attachment to land. A group of American university students on an international travel course and their South African peer mentors explored racism and cultural differences in an immersive fieldwork experience.
One essay traces the discipline’s evolving understanding of the ethnographer’s relationship to the community being studied—from dispassionate observer to critically self-conscious participant-observer. Another heralds the success of an unconventional local initiative: a popular radio drama shows great promise for raising HIV awareness among young women in Botswana. A final essay makes a plea for broad public engagement in improving the lives of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
These papers were presented at the April 2016 annual meeting of the Southern Anthropological Society (SAS) in Huntington, West Virginia.
BRIAN A. HOEY is associate dean of the Honors College and a professor of anthropology at Marshall University.
