This companion provides an indispensable overview of contemporary
and classical issues in social and cultural anthropology. Although
anthropology has expanded greatly over time in terms of the
diversity of topics in which its practitioners engage, many of the
broad themes and topics at the heart of anthropological thought
remain perennially vital, such as understanding order and change,
diversity and continuity, and conflict and co-operation in the
reproduction of social life. Bringing together leading scholars in
the field, the contributors to this volume provide us with
thoughtful and fruitful ways of thinking about a number of
contemporary and long-standing arenas of work where both
established and more recent researchers are engaged. The companion
begins by exploring classic topics such as Religion; Rituals;
Language and Culture; Violence; and Gender. This is followed by a
focus on current developments within the discipline including Human
Rights; Globalization; and Diasporas and Cosmopolitanism. It
provides an interesting and challenging look at the state of
current thinking in anthropology, serving as a rich resource for
scholars and students alike.
