{"product_id":"writing-culture-and-the-life-orin-starn-9780822358626","title":"Writing Culture and the Life of Anthropology","description":"Using the influential and field-changing \u003ci\u003eWriting Culture\u003c\/i\u003e as a point of departure, the thirteen essays in \u003ci\u003eWriting Culture and the Life of Anthropology\u003c\/i\u003e address anthropology's past, present, and future. The contributors, all leading figures in anthropology today, reflect back on the \"writing culture\" movement of the 1980s, consider its influences on ethnographic research and writing, and debate what counts as ethnography in a post-\u003ci\u003eWriting Culture\u003c\/i\u003e era. They address questions of ethnographic method, new forms the presentation of research might take, and the anthropologist's role. Exploring themes such as late industrialism, precarity, violence, science and technology, globalization, and the non-human world, this book is essential reading for those looking to understand the current state of anthropology and its possibilities going forward. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eContributors.
