Contrarian Anthropology

Mehr zum Buch

The book explores boundary maintenance in anthropology, energy, gender, and law, contrasting conventional academic trends with innovative approaches that challenge established methods and theories. Through selections from an anthropologist's extensive career, it aims to identify and critique unwritten rules that stifle transformative ideas, encouraging readers to engage in boundary-crossing thinking. The work serves as both a historical overview and a call to action for those in the field to embrace contrarian perspectives.
