In its assessment of the current "state of play" of ethnographic
practice in social anthropology, this volume explores the
challenges that changing social forms and changing understandings
of "the field" pose to contemporary ethnographic methods. These
challenges include the implications of the remarkable impact social
anthropology is having on neighboring disciplines such as history,
sociology, cultural studies, human geography and linguistics, as
well as the potential 'costs' of this success for the discipline.
Contributors also discuss how the ethnographic method is influenced
by current institutional contexts and historical "traditions"
across a range of settings. Here ethnography is featured less as a
methodological "tool-box" or technique but rather as a subject on
which to reflect.
