Using a "vertical slice" approach, anthropologists critically
analyze the relationship between undemocratic uses and abuses of
power and the survival of the human species. The contributors
scrutinize modern institutions in a variety of regions-from Russia
and Mexico to South Korea and the U.S. Up, Down, and Sideways is an
ethnographic examination of such phenomena as debtculture, global
financial crises, food insecurity, indigenous land and resource
appropriation, the mismanagement of health care, andcorporate
surrogacy within family life. With a preface by Laura Nader, this
isessential reading for anyone seeking solid theories and concrete
methods to inform activist scholarship.
