Sociology & anthropology

Paperback. Challenges to ethnographic authority and to the ethics of representation have led many contemporary anthropologists to abandon fieldwork in favor of strategies of theoretical puppeteering, textual analysis, and surrogate ethnography.

Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 155 x 227 x 22. Weight in Grams: 406.
