What is existential anthropology, and how would you define it? What
has been gained by using existential perspectives in your fieldwork
and writing? Editors Michael Jackson and Albert Piette each invited
anthropologists on both sides of the Atlantic to address these
questions and explore how various approaches to the human condition
might be brought together on the levels of method and of theory.
Both editors also bring their own perspective: while Jackson has
drawn on phenomenology, deploying the concepts of
intersubjectivity, lifeworld, experience, existential mobility, and
event, Piette has drawn on Heidegger's Dasein-analysis, and
developed a phenomenographical method for the observation and
description of human beings in their singularity and ever-changing
situations.
