Now that we live in a world that seems increasingly familiar, putatively marked by a spreading sameness, anthropology must re-envision itself. The emergence of diverse national traditions in the discipline offers one intriguing path. This volume, the product of a novel encounter of American anthropologists of France and French anthropologists of the United States, explores the possibilities of that path through an experiment in the reciprocal production of knowledge. Simultaneously native subjects, foreign experts, and colleagues, these scholars offer novel insights into each other’s societies, juxtaposing glimpses of ourselves and a familiar “others” to productively unsettle and enrich our understanding of both.Applied anthropologyUnited StatesApplied anthropologyFranceComparative civilizationApplied anthropologyApplied anthropologyComparative civilization.301Raulin AnneRogers Susan CarolMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822735503321Transatlantic parallaxes4126540UNINA
