Anthropologists are increasingly pressurised to formulate field
methods for teaching. Unlike many hypothesis-driven ethnographic
texts, this book is designed with the specific needs of the
anthropology student and field researcher in mind, with particular
emphasis on the core anthropological method: long term participant
observation. "Anthropological Practice" explores fieldwork
experiences unique to anthropology, and provides the context by
which to explain and develop practice-based and open-ended
methodology. It draws on dialogues with over twenty established and
younger anthropologists, whose fieldwork spans the late 1960s to
the present day, taking place in locations as diverse as Europe,
India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Africa, Iran, Afghanistan, North and
South America.
Revealing first-hand and hitherto unrecorded aspects of fieldwork,
"Anthropological Practice" provides critical, systematic ways to
enhance anthropological and alternative knowledge. It is an
essential text for anthropology students and researchers, and for
all disciplines concerned with ethnography.
