Anthropology has recently seen a lively interest in the subject of
ethics and comparative notions of morality and freedom. This
masterclass brings together four of the most eminent
anthropologists working in this field-Michael Lambek, Veena Das,
Didier Fassin, and Webb Keane-to discuss, via lectures and
responses, important topics facing anthropological ethics and the
theoretical debates that surround it. The authors explore the ways
we understand morality across many different cultural settings,
asking questions such as: How do we recognize the ethical in
different ethnographic worlds? What constitutes agency and
awareness in everyday life? What might an anthropology of ordinary
ethics look like? And what happens when ethics approaches the
political in both Western and non-Western societies. Contrasting
perspectives and methods-and yet in complimentary ways-this
masterclass will serve as an essential guide for how an
anthropology of ethics can be formulated in the twenty-first
century.
