Book Synopsis Archaeology and Anthropology by : David Shankland
Download or read book Archaeology and Anthropology written by David Shankland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-18 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though archaeologists have long acknowledged the work of social anthropologists, anthropologists have been much less eager to repay the compliment. This volume argues that the time has come to recognise the insights archaeological approaches can bring to anthropology. Archaeology's rigorous approach to evidence and material culture; its ability to develop flexible research methodologies; its readiness to work with large-scale models of comparative social change, and to embrace the latest technology all means that it can offer valuable methods that can enrich and enhance current anthropological thinking.Cross-disciplinary and international in scope, this exciting volume draws together cutting-edge essays on the relationship between the two disciplines, arguing for greater collaboration and pointing to new concepts and approaches for anthropology. With contributions from leading scholars, this book will be essential reading for students and scholars of archaeology, anthropology and related disciplines.
Book Synopsis The Time of Anthropology by : Elisabeth Kirtsoglou
Download or read book The Time of Anthropology written by Elisabeth Kirtsoglou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Time of Anthropology provides a series of compelling anthropological case studies that explore the different temporalities at play in the scientific discourses, governmental techniques and policy practices through which modern life is shaped. Together they constitute a novel analysis of contemporary chronopolitics. The contributions focus on state power, citizenship, and ecologies of time to reveal the scalar properties of chronopolitics as it shifts between everyday lived realities and the macro-institutional work of nation states. The collection charts important new directions for chronopolitical thinking in the future of anthropological research. The Introduction and Chapters 5, 6, and 8 of this book are freely available as downloadable Open Access PDFs at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

With 80 authors, contributing more than 60 chapters, this is the most comprehensive and up-to-date statement of research in Social Anthropology available and the essential point of departure for future projects. The Handbook is divided into four sections: -Part I: Interfaces examines Social Anthropology′s disciplinary connections, from Art and Literature to Politics and Economics, from Linguistics to Biomedicine, from History to Media Studies. -Part II: Places examines place, region, culture, and history, from regional, area studies to a globalized world -Part III: Methods examines issues of method; from archives to war zones, from development projects to art objects, and from ethics to comparison -Part IV: Futures anticipates anthropologies to come: in the Brain Sciences; in post-Development; in the Body and Health; and in new Technologies and Materialities Edited by the leading figures in social anthropology, the Handbook includes a substantive introduction by Richard Fardon, a think piece by Jean and John Comaroff, and a concluding last word on futures by Marilyn Strathern. The authors - each at the leading edge of the discipline - contribute in-depth chapters on both the foundational ideas and the latest research. Comprehensive and detailed, this magisterial Handbook overviews the last 25 years of the social anthropological imagination. It will speak to scholars in Social Anthropology and its many related disciplines.
Download or read book Shifting States written by Alison Dundon and published by Bloomsbury Academic. This book was released on 2020-06-25 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 13 chapters in this collection were specially selected from over 400 papers given at the 'Shifting States' conference at the University of Adelaide in Australia in 2017. The papers were selected on the basis of their empirically rich and theoretically engaging contributions to the theme. The volume comprises an ethnographic examination of state agency and the relationships between surveillance, bureaucracy, infrastructure and personhood, making it relevant across a range of contemporary issues. Part I of the volume, 'Dialectics of Security, Surveillance and Struggle', examines trajectories of state organization and security in the context of late-capitalism and technological saturation. Examples here are taken from Aboriginal Australia and urban North America, and include discussions of militarisation, post-colonial settlements, and the politics of migration. Part II, 'Ethnographies of Infrastructure: Assemblage, Experimentation and Mobilization', presents ethnographies of industrial, energy, and transportation infrastructures, and uses these to think about how such large scale projects not only reflect government aspirations, but engender new realms for state-citizen engagements. Examples here are taken from Latin America, Post-Socialist Europe and South-east Asia, and examines issues of contingency, citizenship, and human security. Part III, 'Sensory States, and their Contingent Citizenries', explores the sensual life of state formations, opening up discussion of the politics of embodiment and affect. Examples here are again drawn from Australia, Europe and the Pacific, and include discussions of public health interventions, bio-medical power more broadly, and the politics of intimate relations. Moving seamlessly from the specific to the nation-wide, the volume develops new theoretical understandings of the state and will be of value for scholars of anthropology, political philosophy and political science.
Book Synopsis Theory from the South by : Jean Comaroff
Download or read book Theory from the South written by Jean Comaroff and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As nation-states in the Northern Hemisphere experience economic crisis, political corruption and racial tension, it seems as though they might be 'evolving' into the kind of societies normally associated with the 'Global South'. Anthropologists Jean and John Comaroff draw on their long experience of living in Africa to address a range of familiar themes - democracy, national borders, labour and capital and multiculturalism. They consider how we might understand these issues by using theory developed in the Global South. Challenging our ideas about 'developed' and 'developing' nations, Theory from the South provides new insights into key problems of our time.
Book Synopsis The Commonwealth by : Patricia Larby
Download or read book The Commonwealth written by Patricia Larby and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern British Commonwealth, linking fifty countries around the world in voluntary association, cooperation, and consultation, is a unique body in world history. The area of its member countries covers a third of the globe and collectively their peoples represent a quarter of the world's total population. Though essentially different from the British Empire from which it originated, the Commonwealth shares many common historical ties with Britain. Patricia M. Larby and Harry Hannam have assembled an unrivaled body of literature to illustrate the growth of the Empire into the Commonwealth. This extensive bibliography identifies, lists, and annotates the most important publications on the development and growth of the Commonwealth; its present status and functions; and its role in education, literature, sport, and the arts and sciences. It includes its historical origins: its cooperation in economics, politics, and international issues such as the environment; and its many spheres of professional activity including medicine, law, and architecture. Strong emphasis is placed on the role of the English language in the Commonwealth and as a medium for creative literature in many disparate cultures worldwide. The Commonwealth appears at a time when this unique organization is on the threshold of a new era in its history. The proposals emerging from the 1991 Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting include statements on democracy and human rights; environmental affairs; and global concerns such as international crime, drug abuse, and AIDS. No previous comprehensive bibliography of the Commonwealth exists, and this volume fills a long-standing gap in the bibliographical coverage. It will be an essential reference source for libraries and scholars involved in Commonwealth studies and will be of particular interest to historians, political scientists, economists, and educators.

The series attempts to achieve evaluation through a careful selection of sources and through the comments provided on those sources.
Book Synopsis World Anthropologies by : Gustavo Lins Ribeiro
Download or read book World Anthropologies written by Gustavo Lins Ribeiro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-12 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.

Download or read book Law's Anthropology written by Paul Burke and published by ANU E Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthropologists have been appearing as key expert witnesses in native title claims for over 20 years. Until now, however, there has been no theoretically-informed, detailed investigation of how the expert testimony of anthropologists is formed and how it is received by judges. This book examines the structure and habitus of both the field of anthropology and the juridical field and how they have interacted in four cases, including the original hearing in the Mabo case. The analysis of background material has been supplemented by interviews with the key protagonists in each case. This allows the reader a unique, insider's perspective of the courtroom drama that unfolds in each case. The book asks, given the available ethnographic research, how will the anthropologist reconstruct it in a way that is relevant to the legal doctrine of native title when that doctrine gives a wide leeway for interpretation on the critical questions.
