Other People's Anthropologies

<p> Anthropological practice has been dominated by the so-called great traditions (Anglo-American French and German). However processes of decolonization along with critical interrogation of these dominant narratives have led to greater visibility of what used to be seen as peripheral scholarship. With contributions from leading anthropologists and social scientists from different countries and anthropological traditions this volume gives voice to scholars outside these great traditions. It shows the immense variety of methodologies training and approaches that scholars from these regions bring to anthropology and the social sciences in general thus enriching the disciplines in important ways at an age marked by multiculturalism globalization and transnationalism.</p>
