Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

New case wrapped hardcover. 8vo. (6.1 x 0.7 x 9.1 inches) Clean text free of marks or underlining. B&W photos and illustrations. Includes notes, bibliography and an index. 212 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. This volume examines some crucial issues in the conduct of fieldwork and ethnography and provides new insights into the problems of constructing anthropological knowledge. How is anthropological knowledge created from fieldwork, whose knowledge is this, who determines what is of significance in any ethnographic context, and how is the fieldsite extended in both time and place?

It is a key text for new fieldworkers as much as for established researchers. The anthropological insights developed here are of interdisciplinary relevance: cultural studies scholars, sociologists and historians will be as interested as anthropologists in this re-evaluation of fieldwork and the project of ethnography.…
