In the 1950s the colonial British government in Northern and
Southern Rhodesia (present-day Zambia and Zimbabwe) began
construction on a large hydroelectric dam that created Lake Kariba
and dislocated nearly 60,000 indigenous residents. Three decades
later, Pamela Reynolds began fieldwork with the Tonga people to
study the lasting effects of the dispossession of their land on
their lives. In The Uncaring, Intricate World Reynolds shares her
field diary, in which she records her efforts to study children and
their labor and, by doing so, exposes the character of everyday
life. More than a memoir, her diary captures the range of
pleasures, difficulties, frustrations, contradictions, and
grappling with ethical questions that all anthropologists
experience in the field. The Uncaring, Intricate World concludes
with afterwords by Jane I. Guyer and Julie Livingston, who
critically reflect on its context, its meaning for today, and
relevance to conducting anthropological work.
