Notes on contributors; Subject index; Name index 330 $aOutside France, French anthropology is conventionally seen as being dominated by grand theory produced by writers who have done little or no fieldwork themselves, and who may not even count as anthropologists in terms of the institutional structures of French academia. This applies to figures from Durkheim to Derrida, Mauss to Foucault, though there are partial exceptions, such as Le?vi-Strauss and Bourdieu. It has led to a contrast being made, especially perhaps in the Anglo-Saxon world, between French theory relying on rational inference, and British empiricism based on induction and generally skeptical of theory. While there are contrasts between the two traditions, this is essentially a false view. It is this aspect of French anthropology that this collection addresses, in the belief that the neglect of many of these figures outside France is seriously distorting our view of the French tradition of anthropology overall. At the same time, the collection will provide a positive view of the French tradition of ethnography, stressing its combination of technical competence and the sympathies of its practitioners for its various ethnographic subjects. 410 0$aMethodology and history in anthropology ;$vv. 22. 517 3 $aEthnographic theory and practice in French anthropology 606 $aAnthropology$zFrance$xPhilosophy 606 $aAnthropology$xFieldwork$zFrance 606 $aAnthropology$zFrance$xMethodology 615 0$aAnthropology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aAnthropology$xFieldwork 615 0$aAnthropology$xMethodology. 676 $a301 701 $aParkin$b Robert$f1950-$0998192 701 $aSales$b Anne de$01015606 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248304703316 996 $aOut of the study and into the field$92372250 997 $aUNISA
