Culture, Power, Place: Explorations in Critical Anthropology
by Akhil Gupta
On This Page
Description
Anthropology has traditionally relied on a spatially localized society or culture as its object of study. The essays in Culture, Power, Place demonstrate how in recent years this anthropological convention and its attendant assumptions about identity and cultural difference have undergone a series of important challenges. In light of increasing mass migration and the transnational cultural flows of a late capitalist, postcolonial world, the contributors to this volume examine shifts in show more anthropological thought regarding issues of identity, place, power, and resistance.This colle show lessTags
