Governments are more than formal political institutions, they are
places of work for thousands of women and men, and powerful social,
cultural, and economic sites that shape the lives of all people.
This collection demonstrates how anthropologists can enrich our
understandings of government by exploring the labor of those who
govern, and how the dynamics of culture are at the heart of
government actions that justify, modify, and reproduce political
action. By assembling original, ethnographically-grounded research
in legislatures, executives, and bureaucracies, this volume
illuminates and unpacks the structures, practices, and values of
government actors in local, regional, and national contexts.
