An anthropologist who married a Zapotec Women, the author chronicles his fieldwork in this memoir. His research is interwoven with his personal experiences, addressing the political and ethical dilemmas of contemporary ethnography. Campbell's informants are internationally known politicians, poets, and painters who live in Juchitán, a large city controlled by indigenous activists. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile adopting aspects of the postmodern critique of ethnography, the author proposes and illustrates a collaborative form of research based on partisan political commitment. Through a candid and intimate account, he portrays his informants and research site, and his direct involvement in Zapotec society. The book is both a highly readable ethnography of Southern Mexico and a contribution to debates about current anthropology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Howard Campbell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0897897811\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780897897815\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/30\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.06w x 0.49d","brand":"Howard Campbell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48087044882687,"sku":"9780897897815","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_794fb970-5d12-498a-b00e-25d4cc8d8c39.jpg?v=1769097983","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mexican-memoir-howard-campbell-9780897897815","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
