Anthropologist practitioners work outside the confines of the
university, putting their knowledge and skills to work on
significant problems in a wide variety of different contexts. The
demand for anthropologist practitioners is strong and growing;
practice is in many ways the leading edge of anthropology today,
and one of the most exciting aspects of the discipline. How can
anthropology students prepare themselves to become practitioners?
Specifically designed to help students, including those in more
traditional training programs, prepare for a career in putting
anthropology to work in the world, the book: - provides an
introduction to the discipline of anthropology and an exploration
of its role and contribution in today's world; - outlines the shape
of anthropological practice - what it is, how it developed
historically, and what it looks like today; - describes how
students of anthropology can prepare for a career in practice, with
emphasis on the relationship between theory, method, and
application; - includes short contributions from practitioners,
writing on specific aspects of training, practice, and career
planning; - sets out a framework for career planning, with specific
and detailed discussions of finding and securing employment; -
reviews some of the more salient challenges arising in the course
of a practitioner career; and - concludes with a discussion of what
the future of anthropological practice is likely to be. Using
Anthropology in the World is essential reading for students
interested in preparing themselves for the challenges and rewards
of practice and application.
