The past decade has witnessed the phenomenal rise of cultural
studies on both sides of the Atlantic. This text asks whether the
very success of this comparatively new field of academic enquiry
stands as a tribute to anthropology, or whether the success of
cultural studies is evidence of anthropology's fragmentation and
decline. Amidst fears that anthropology is being eclipsed, this
collection of essays asks what kinds of relationships are feasible
between anthropology and cultural studies, and how they might
develop in the future. Is there scope for fruitful dialogue and, if
so, on whose terms? Are there shared theoretical agendas? In
adopting an interdisciplinary approach to the anthropology of
complex cultural issues, the contributors to this volume review
both the challenges and the potential insights of cultural studies
approaches within their field of research, and chart a potentially
new agenda for anthropology in an increasingly shared terrain of
globally interacting cultures and identities.
