"Feminist Fields" offers a rich and varied portrait of both the
current work in feminist anthropology and future possibilities for
dialogue between feminism and anthropology. Contributors to the
book present critical analyses of a broad range of ethnographic
topics: national feminism, gender and identity formation, cultural
continuity, ethnographic authority, ethics and representation,
empowerment and resistance. Here, young practitioners alongside
more established scholars share their theoretical insights,
bringing them to life through first-person narratives and stories.
Throughout, there is a clear sense of the intellectual inspiration
to be had from the practice of feminist anthropology and its
emphasis on the power of thoughtful reflexivity in fieldwork and
writing practices. Also recognized is an urgent need to bring
forward the perspectives of those whose knowledge has been
forgotten, ignored, or actively silenced.
