Time and the Other is a classic work that critically reexamined the
relationship between anthropologists and their subjects and
reoriented the approach literary critics, philosophers, and
historians took to the study of humankind. Johannes Fabian
challenges the assumption that anthropologists live in the "here
and now," that their subjects live in the "there and then," and
that the "other" exists in a time not contemporary with our own. He
also pinpoints the emergence, transformation, and differentiation
of a variety of uses of time in the history of anthropology that
set specific parameters between power and inequality. In this
edition, a new postscript by the author revisits popular
conceptions of the "other" and the attempt to produce and represent
knowledge of other(s).
