The End of Anthropology?

Editat de Holger Jebens, Karl-Heinz Kohl
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 iul 2011
Decolonisation, modernisation, globalisation, the crisis of representation, and the 'cultural turn' in neighbouring disciplines have unsettled anthropology to such an extent that the field's foundations, the subjects of its study as well as its methods and concepts, appear to be eroded. It is now time to take stock and either abandon anthropology as a fundamentally untenable or superfluous project, or to set it on more solid foundations. In this volume some of the world's leading anthropologists - including Vincent Crapanzano, Maurice Godelier, Ulf Hannerz and Adam Kuper - do just that. Reflecting on how to meet the manifold institutional, theoretical, methodological, and epistemological challenges to the field, as well as on the continued, if not heightened, importance of anthropology in a world where diversity and cultural difference are becoming ever more important economically, politically, and legally, they set upon the task of reconstructing anthropology's foundations and firming up its stance vis-à-vis these challenges.

Descriere

Some of the world's leading anthropologists, including Vincent Crapanzano, Maurice Godelier, Ulf Hannerz and Adam Kuper, reflect on how to meet the manifold institutional, theoretical, methodological, and epistemological challenges to the field of anthropology, as well as on the continued importance of anthropology in a world where diversity and cultural difference are becoming ever more important economically, politically, and legally.
