Anthropology is usually associated with the study of society, but
the anthropologist must also understand people as individuals. This
highly original study demonstrates how methods of social analysis
can be applied to the individual, while remaining entirely distinct
from psychology and other perspectives on the person. Contributors
draw on approaches from material culture to create fascinating
portraits of individuals, offering analytical insights that convey
ethnographic encounters with often extraordinary people from
Turkey, Spain and Britain to Albania, Cuba, Jamaica, Mali, Serbia
and Trinidad. Exploring relationships to places and spaces such as
social networking sites, to persons such as parents, to ethical
concerns such as fairness and to concepts such as the ideology of
struggle, Anthropology and the Individual shows how the study of
the individual can provide insights into society without losing a
sense of the particularity of the person.
