The book reveals the intricate behind-the-scenes planning, discussion, negotiations and strategies needed to ensure that the agency's presentation to a potential client will be preferred over that of a rival firm. The book shows how detailed ethnography can lead to an understanding of numerous different, but interlocking, theoretical issues. It demonstrates how ethnography can travel beyond the academic realm and be used by business personnel to heighten their understanding of their companies' organizational structures, strategies and daily work practices. Asking crucial questions about the role of the anthropologist in the field, Ethnography at Work introduces students to ways in which anthropologists study social systems in business. 606 $aAdvertising agencies$zJapan 606 $aAdvertising$zJapan 606 $aBusiness anthropology$zJapan 606 $aEthnology$xFieldwork$zJapan 615 0$aAdvertising agencies 615 0$aAdvertising 615 0$aBusiness anthropology 615 0$aEthnology$xFieldwork 676 $a659.1/11 700 $aMoeran$b Brian$f1944-$0646818 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784738403321 996 $aEthnography at work$93820977 997 $aUNINA
