The question of ignorance occupies a central place in
anthropological theory and practice. This volume argues that the
concept of ignorance has largely been pursued as the opposite of
knowledge or even its obverse. Though they cover wide empirical
ground - from clients of a fertility treatment center in New York
to families grappling with suicide in Greenland - contributors
share a commitment to understanding the concept as a productive,
social practice. Ultimately, The Anthropology of Ignorance asks
whether an academic commitment to knowledge can be squared with
lived significance of ignorance and how taking it seriously might
alter anthropological research practices.
