An informed reflection on this comparatively new topic in anthropology in relation to morality, action, law, politics and governance is both timely and innovative, especially as worldwide discontent among ordinary people grows. The ethnographically-based analyses offered here range from banking to neighbourhoods, from poverty to political action at the grassroots. They recognize the growing gap between the rulers and the ruled with particular attention to the morality of what is right as opposed to what is legal. This book is a unique contribution to social theory, fostering discussion across the many boundaries of anthropological and sociological studies. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Urban Anthropology,$x2946-2444 606 $aEthnology 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aEthnography 606 $aSociocultural Anthropology 606 $aGovernance and Government 606 $aPolitical Sociology 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 14$aEthnography. 615 24$aSociocultural Anthropology. 615 24$aGovernance and Government. 615 24$aPolitical Sociology. 676 $a307.76 702 $aPardo$b Italo$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPrato$b Giuliana B$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337735903321 996 $aLegitimacy$91082237 997 $aUNINA
