Non-knowledge should not be simply regarded as the opposite of
knowledge, but as complementary to it: each derives its character
and meaning from the other and from their interaction. Knowledge
does not colonize the space of ignorance in the progressive march
of science; rather, knowledge and ignorance are mutually shaped in
social and political domains of partial, shifting, and temporal
relationships. This volume's ethnographic analyses provide a
theoretical frame through which to consider the production and
reproduction of ignorance, non-knowledge, and secrecy, as well as
the wider implications these ideas have for anthropology and
related disciplines in the social sciences and humanities.
