Description: About this Item The item is a book Paperback The Title is Writing Culture and the Life of Anthropology Condition New Other Comments Pages Count - 278. Binding type - Perfect. Content Language - English Category - SOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / Cultural & Social Product Description - Using the influential and field-changing Writing Culture as a point of departure, the thirteen essays in Writing Culture and the Life of Anthropology address anthropology's past, present, and future. The contributors, all leading figures in anthropology today, reflect back on the "writing culture" movement of the 1980s, consider its influences on ethnographic research and writing, and debate what counts as ethnography in a post-Writing Culture era. They address questions of ethnographic method, new forms the presentation of research might take, and the anthropologist's role. Exploring themes such as late industrialism, precarity, violence, science and technology, globalization, and the non-human world, this book is essential reading for those looking to understand the current state of anthropology and its possibilities going forward.
