Written by world-renowned social anthropologist, Jean Lave, with an
afterword by Brazilian anthropologist Ana Maria R. Gomes, this book
weaves together ethnographic accounts of work and learning,
apprenticeship and everyday life, through a critical theory of
practice. Each chapter explores in different ways the proposition
that learning is a collective, transformative process of change in
the historically political complex relations of everyday life. At
the same time, the book demonstrates the changing character of
Lave's own research practice over two decades. Lave addresses work
practices and everyday life and discusses the problem of context
and decontextualization. Analyzing two decades of ethnographic
studies of craft apprenticeship, she explores teaching as learning
and examines the reciprocal effects of theories of everyday life
and learning.
